17:00 Dundalk Maiden 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

TARAJ has shown definite promise on both outings in Curragh maidens on varying ground conditions and sets a fair standard. The Dermot Weld-trained colt came home strongly when beaten just over a length on debut over this trip before filling the runner-up spot behind Gasper De Lemos over seven. That winner went on to finish second in a Group 3 at Newmarket. The Old Nine enters calculations following a promising third on debut behind the odds-on Formal Display over C&D a fortnight ago, while Heliogabalus took a big step forward from his debut when a close third here last month. Joseph O'Brien sends out a team of four runners and perhaps Peretti, who cost 180,000 euro as a yearling and has plenty of stamina on the dam side, may prove the pick.

TARAJ sets the bar pretty high on his 2 runs at the Curragh at the end of the summer and gets the nod for the Dermot Weld team. The Old Nine made a promising start to his career when third in a C&D maiden a fortnight ago and is second choice ahead of Heliogabalus, who also arrives on the back of a placed effort over C&D. Market support for any of the Joseph O'Brien newcomers would also bring them into the reckoning.

This can go the way of TARAJ (nap) who has run 2 big races in Curragh maidens so far and should have no problem with the switch to AW

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

WHISPERSINTHEWIND ran a cracker on debut when staying on well inside the final furlong to take third behind Milliat with September Leaves about a length back in fifth. The Joseph O'Brien-trained filly again shaped well here over seven furlongs when beating all bar Sweetest a fortnight ago and the half-sister to Royal Lodge winner Mohawk should be suited by the step up to a mile. Raknah joined Jessica Harrington about two months ago and has shown promise on a couple of occasions while Madam Celeste is certainly a newcomer to note being by Galileo out of a prolific winning juvenile whose victories include the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot. She cost 750,000 euro at the Goffs Orby Sale, while Sylkie is another to consider being out of a winning daughter of Australia.

MADAM CELESTLE looks the part on paper and it will look highly significant if the market speaks in her favour. If the vibes surrounding this €750,000 Galileo filly in the betting are upbeat, the hint should be taken. Whispersinthewind is the clear pick of those with experience and she is greatly respected. September Leaves is best of the rest.

This can go the way of WHISPERSINTHEWIND who has gone close in two seven furlong maidens here and she should relish this longer trip

There is little to choose between Big Dream and TIKTOK TIME on running behind Chummie over C&D a fortnight ago with slight preference for the three-year-old. The David Marnane-trained filly appeared to enjoy her first experience on this surface and may have more scope for improvement. Big Dream won a maiden here over a mile and has dropped down considerably in the ratings having not shown much in the intervening two years. Feature This was prominent throughout when beating subsequent winner Skontonovski here earlier this month with What Adaay back in third, while Fleetfootsoldier and Monzoon also both won over C&D last time. The Bog Bank has been a model of consistency since returning here in recent weeks.

THE BOG BANK is nothing if not reliable and she is taken to deservedly get her head back in front having twice hit the crossbar in C&D handicaps this month. Last-time-out winners Feature This and Fleetfootsoldier are feared most in that order of preference but Big Dream went close here a fortnight ago and is also likely to be in the mix.

A chance is taken on TIKTOK TIME, who finished to some effect over C&D a fortnight when left with plenty to do

HIGHTIMEYOUWON is probably best over this trip and can defy top-weight to record a fourth win this year. The Ado McGuinness-trained gelding won over C&D back in January before adding two further victories on good ground at Leopardstown and shaped well on his return to the polytrack when only going down by half a length to the progressive Dandyville. Punk Poet has gained all five course wins over a mile including his latest outing a fortnight ago but is also very effective over this distance, while Pier Pressure justified strong support in a maiden over C&D last time and blinkers may extract more improvement on just his sixth start. Sea Chariot is another coming here on the back of a course win while any market move for Cu Chulainn would be interesting.

The vote in this trappy-looking contest goes to SEA CHARIOT, who made it 2-3 here when landing a 1m handicap on his first run since being gelded 16 days ago. Punk Poet displayed a willing attitude when resuming winning ways at this course a fortnight ago and should deliver another a bold show, while Hightimeyouwon has been holding his form well and C&D maiden winner Pier Pressure has to enter calculations, too.

Recent winner SEA CHARIOT likely has more to offer although will need a truly-run race back in trip

HERO OF THE HOUR won three times over C&D earlier this year and following a summer break has returned to form at this venue. The selection did well after a slow start when fourth to Empress Of Bough and should appreciate the drop back to six furlongs having again shaped well when third to Mullacash Buzz last week. Lockdown showed much improved form when just denied by a head in that aforementioned race won by Empress Of Bough, while others to consider include Jazzy Dancer and Havan Notion. The latter won over the minimum trip at Tipperary this summer and should enjoy the step up to six after finishing strongly here last week when beating all bar Realtin Fantasy.

HERO OF THE HOUR shaped well over 7f here last week and is worth siding with to build on that promise having dipped to below his last winning mark. Lockdown was only narrowly denied over C&D last time and heads the dangers along with Havana Notion and Darcy's Rock, the mount of Colin Keane.

HAVANA NOTION was doing his best work at the finish over 7f here recently and this extra furlong should suit

NEVERFINDANOTHER U has won twice over C&D this year including on her penultimate start when just getting the better of Darkened. The daughter of Dragon Pulse backed that up by going close behind Bright N Shine earlier this month and the form received a boost with the fourth winning since. Comfort Line has dropped considerably in the ratings this year but gave plenty of encouragement when second to Shining Aitch here on Wednesday, while Storm Eric, twice a winner here over seven furlongs, finished well over a mile on the same card but is not proven over this trip. Snag It made a winning start for Pat Murphy earlier this month while others to consider include topweight Dabana, Breezy Zoff and Stormy Jenn.

NEVERFINDANOTHER U is building up a solid record over C&D, adding to her tally on her penultimate start prior to another solid effort when runner-up 16 days ago. She looks sure to go well again and earns the vote, with Stormy Jenn and Dabana others to consider. Storm Eric is also interesting provided this marked longer trip doesn't stretch him.

On the back of some very solid turf form BREEZY ZOFF can score on her third AW start

SAND CASTLE likes to race up with the pace and won over C&D last winter. The selection is quite lightly raced since on turf and ran a cracker on his return to the polytrack last Friday when a close fifth behind Golden Sandbanks. The booking of Colin Keane gives plenty of encouragement. Believe In Science is still seeking a first win after 18 starts but shaped well on a number of occasions including when third over 1m5f at Leopardstown this summer and again was prominent throughout when a promising fourth behind the progressive Celtic Revival here at the start of this month. Lucky Queen has generally been campaigned over shorter trips but ran quite well over 1m4f on testing ground at Galway last time.

BELIEVE IN SCIENCE's maiden status is off-putting but he ran well when fourth in a C&D handicap on his latest outing 23 days ago and could just be worth chancing to get off the mark operating from a career-low mark. Sand Castle, under Colin Keane, and Clever Capall are others to consider, with Riyami also worth keeping an eye on.

A few in with chances but SAND CASTLE goes well at this venue and he may be worth chancing after a close up fifth over C&D last week

SPINNING WEB has a poor draw in 17 but appears on a nice mark and has recent form. His initial form was poor but improved considerably running over hurdles and ran well in a big-field handicap last month. He drops in distance and has disappointed on his only start on this surface but is a progressive three-year-old who should now show himself in a better light. Race-fit, in-form Clever Currency has won both over hurdles and fences and while he should, in theory, better his lowly Flat rating, has nonetheless failed in 11 previous runs and might prefer slightly further. Firm Belief ran well on career debut here last February and having since won a big-field Navan handicap last month, can compete despite hauling top weight. Dual winner Gracesolution is helped by her rider's 5lb claim.

SPINNING WEB has made more of an impact over hurdles/on the Flat during the second half of this year, again running with credit when fifth in a big-field Navan handicap over further 37 days ago. He can make a bold bid to defy his basement mark back down in trip, with Gracesolution heading up the dangers. Clever Currency and Firm Belief are others to consider.

There's a good chance that GRACESOLUTION needed her recent comeback. She's on a good mark and went close here last winter

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.
