13:05 Fairyhouse Handicap Chase 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BATTLE OF RIDGEWAY can make it two from three over fences. The Califet gelding was an impressive winner on his chase debut at Thurles in November and just lost out by half a length in a tight finish on his first handicap start over the larger obstacles back at the Tipperary venue last month. That form looks solid with the fourth-placed horse, R'evelyn Pleasure winning twice since. Chainofconsequence has a nice low weight in this with Adam Ryan taking off 7lb. The Ocovango gelding won on his penultimate start at Limerick before a solid placed effort off this mark at Clonmel last time. Teescomponentsyess chased home Chainofconsequence in Limerick and is entitled to get a bit closer now on revised terms.

A winner over hurdles/fences last year, BATTLE OF RIDGEWAY remains low-mileage and confirmed he remains one to be interested in when finishing a good second on handicap debut in this sphere at Thurles 6 weeks ago and he earns the vote to go one place better. Battle It Out rates a likely improver himself now handicapping in this sphere and along with Teescomponentsyess and Midnight It Is, heads up the dangers.

Martin Hassett's runner BATTLE OF RIDGEWAY is still relatively unexposed and may go one better than in his first handicap at Thurles.

BALDUR'S GATE ran a big race over two-and-a-half miles last time and may benefit from going back up in trip now. He was impressive when winning over an extended three miles at Punchestown back in November and is lightly-raced for a nine-year-old. Pictures Of Home is another who looks well suited by a stiff test of stamina having won over two-miles-seven here on his penultimate start. He could be a danger. Josh D'id takes a step up in trip now and is another for the shortlist having stayed on when fourth over two-and-a-half at Navan last month.

JOSH D'ID made an encouraging return at Navan last month and should have more to offer over fences. He gets the nod. Baldur's Gate and Pictures of Home rate the principal dangers.

Although WHERE'S FRANKIE has to be forgiven a poor run over hurdles here three weeks ago, he is worth a bet on overall course form

JADE DE GRUGY looked very exciting on her Irish debut at Leopardstown over Christmas and can take another step up the ladder here. The Doctor Dino mare, a winner on the Flat in France, powered clear to beat a good yardstick in Butcher Hollow on her jumping debut and looks a very smart prospect in this mares division. Willie Mullins saddles three others in the race. Pink In The Park is the most experienced and sets a decent standard off a mark of 134. Henry de Bromhead's charge Look To The West is another unexposed sort that has to be respected. She was value for a bit more than her winning margin on her hurdling debut at Navan and should appreciate going another couple of furlongs.

French import JADE DE GRUGY looked good when making a winning hurdles debut at Leopardstown and she can be expected to take this step up in class in her stride. A Penny A Hundred, one of three others representing the Willie Mullins yard, could be the one to follow the selection home, while Look To The West is also accorded respect.

Willie Mullins has a terrific record in this race and can enhance it with JADE DE GRUGY who won in great style on her Irish debut

WESTERN DIEGO may be able to get back on track here after a disappointing show on his hurdling debut at Cork last month. The Westerner gelding, seventh in last year's Cheltenham bumper, ran much too freely and made a few errors on his first outing over timber, easing down in the closing stages to finish a well beaten fifth. He should be capable of a good bit better. Shoot The Blues looked a nice prospect when winning a bumper on debut back in October 2022. He has a long absence to overcome but commands respect from an in-form yard. Jack Kennedy takes the mount on Undeniable Alibi from the two Gordon Elliott runners. The Saint de Saints gelding won a point-to-point last year but was turned over at a short price on his 'track' debut in a bumper here early last month. He may do better now over jumps.

UNDENIABLE ALIBI failed to meet expectations in a C&D bumper last month, but he's clearly thought capable of a good deal better and can be given another chance making a quick switch to hurdling. Shoot The Blues landed a Limerick bumper in taking fashion on his debut in October 2022 and warrants plenty of respect for all that he hasn't been seen since. Western Diego remains with potential based on his useful bumper form and must enter calculations, too.

SHOOT THE BLUES could be the one to side with after a likeable debut performance in a Limerick bumper and his yard are in-form

TIME FOR TEA gets the vote in a maiden hurdle for horses that have run at least three times under Rules and not finished in the first three. The Henry de Bromhead-trained mare has progressed steadily in three maiden hurdle starts this term including behind Predators Gold at Punchestown, and last time divided subsequent winners Purse Price and Mount Frisco when fourth to The Other Mozzie at Down Royal's Christmas meeting. Only A Dollar has also shown some promise in four starts including behind Binge Worthy at Limerick last month, while others to consider include Midweek Voices, Magic Sadler and Paddy's Milestone.

NOW IS THE HOUR looked set to justify strong support until departing 2 out at Limerick last month and is fancied to make amends. Only A Dollar and Time For Tea are both going the right way so can fill the places.

NOW IS THE HOUR may have won without coming down at Limerick latest and he can gain compensation in this lesser race

ONE BIG BANG appreciated the step up to this trip at Limerick last month when keeping on well into third behind Ishan with Sir Bob about four lengths back in fourth and Mont Saint Vincent held in sixth. The point-to-point winner was having just his second run in a handicap and probably has more scope for improvement. Sir Bob relishes a test of stamina exemplified by his win in the Cork Grand National in November and the veteran remains on a competitive mark 15lb lower than his current chase rating. Givehimthehonour kept on into third over 2m5f at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day and the point-to-point winner tries this trip for the first time under Rules while Mighty Oak Lad readily landed a gamble on the same card, with C&D winner Duffys Getaway soundly beaten in third, but has gone up 16lb as a result.

A few of these offer potential, not least Paul Nolan's GIVEHIMTHEHONOUR who teed himself up well for a breakthrough success when a promising third on his handicap bow here last time out. Both One Big Bang and Mighty Oak Lad appeal as likely improvers too and must enter calculations along with the handily-weighted Mont Saint Vincent.

It's hard to oppose MIGHTY OAK LAD despite his rise in weights. He won by 11 lengths last time and a 16lb rise may not be enough

LIEBER NICC caught the eye on his first completed start when keeping on well in the closing stages behind No Flies On Him in a 28-runner maiden hurdle at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting. The Henry de Bromhead-trained gelding didn't travel well on that occasion but showed a good attitude and should benefit from the experience. Argento Boy is an obvious threat from powerful connections and appeals on pedigree being a half-brother to four winners including Briar Hill who won the Champion Bumper for the same yard. Machismo won a point-to-point at Borris House last month and is a half-brother to three winners including the smart Keeper Hill while Born Braver is another to consider having won twice between the flags in recent months.

ARGENTO BOY has an excellent pedigree and represents top connections, so he takes marginal preference over Machismo, who was impressive when winning his only start in points. Born Braver, another point recruit, is also worthy of respect.

LIEBER NICC was an eyecatcher at Leopardstown last month when sticking to his task and a switch to bumpers may help 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.
