---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (3) (9/4 +44%) Imagine |
9/4(+44%) | (3) Imagine 9/4, Useful hurdler. Respectable third of 9 in minor event hurdle (9/4) at Punchestown (19.8f, good to soft) when last seen in April. Will surely be in the mix, provided his jumping passes the test now switched to fences. One of the standout contenders on hurdling exploits; has chasers in the family. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (11/4 +31%) Inothewayurthinkin |
11/4(+31%) | (4) Inothewayurthinkin 11/4, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Fourth of 5 in a Grade 1 novice hurdle at Punchestown on latest start in April. Mark Walsh's pick of several JP McManus-owned runners in this and bold show likely if taking to fences at the first attempt. Not out of his depth in Grade 1s hurdles and is bred to be a superior chaser. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (5/1 +9%) Pinkerton |
5/1(+9%) | (9) Pinkerton 5/1, Useful hurdler. 28/1, bit below form tenth of 24 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (16.8f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Makes chase debut and claims if reproducing pick of his hurdles form. Best RPR of 141 over hurdles and last seen finishing tenth in the County at Cheltenham. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (11/4 -83%) Sandor Clegane |
11/4(-83%) | (11) Sandor Clegane 11/4, Useful hurdler. Useful winner at 22f over hurdles. 15/8, career best when winning 12-runner minor event hurdle at Punchestown (19.8f, good to soft) on final start of last season. Looks a chasing type and likely to play a leading role if he jumps proficiently. Stayed 3m over hurdles and to a high standard; form at 2m wasn't too shoddy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (40/1 +39%) Verdant Place |
40/1(+39%) | (12) Verdant Place 40/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 10/1, fifth of 8 in novice chase at this course (21.5f, soft) on debut over fences 31 days ago. Down in trip. Likely to find a few of these too strong. Useful hurdler but unlikely to be troubling the best of these, especially at this trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (12/1 +0%) Path D'oroux |
12/1(+0%) | (8) Path D'oroux 12/1, Useful hurdler. 30¼ lengths fourth of 6 to Hercule Du Seuil in Buck House Novices' Chase (17/2) at Punchestown (18.2f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Inothewayurthinkin is presumably the stable No 1. Good hurdler but has finished tailed off in two Graded chases. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (13) (100/1 +0%) Kates Hill |
100/1(+0%) | (13) Kates Hill 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. 11/2, first run since leaving P. E. Collins when creditable third of 18 in novice hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft). Off 6 months ahead of this chase debut. Hard to fancy in this company on her hurdling form; will want further in time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (20/1 -43%) Neveradullmoment |
20/1(-43%) | (7) Neveradullmoment 20/1, Promising sort. 1 win from 3 runs this season. Second of 8 in novice chase at Galway (18.5f, heavy, 5/1) on debut over fences 35 days ago, finishing with running left. Open to improvement in this sphere. Wouldn't beat a few of these over hurdles but he has the benefit of chasing experience. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (200/1 -100%) Mc Alpine |
200/1(-100%) | (6) Mc Alpine 200/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Unseated rider in novice chase at Cork (17.6f, good to soft, 28/1) on debut over fences 23 days ago. Readily passed over. Inferior hurdler to some of these; unseated mid-race when 28-1 for a novice chase at Cork. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (100/1 -52%) Invictus Machin |
100/1(-52%) | (5) Invictus Machin 100/1, Lightly-raced winner under Rules. Seventh of 13 in novice chase at this C&D (soft, 40/1) on debut over fences 31 days ago, finishing with running left. Open to progress, but yard saddles a stronger candidate in Inothewayurthinkin. Winning hurdler; 40-1 and was tailed off on recent chase debut here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (250/1 +0%) Cross Court |
250/1(+0%) | (2) Cross Court 250/1, Poor hurdler. 50/1, first run since leaving W. J. Bryson when eighth of 12 in novice chase at Downpatrick (19.2f, soft) on debut over fences 32 days ago. Hard to fancy. Modest hurdler who finished a remote eighth on his switch to chasing at Downpatrick. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A hot contest that should produce plenty of winners in the coming months. Neveradullmoment's second at Galway is the best chase form on show but this is likely to go to a first-timer over fences and INOTHEWAYURTHINKIN is a tentative selection. He won his first two hurdle races over this trip last season and was a creditable fourth in a Grade 1 over 2m4f at Naas. Gavin Cromwell's charge is related to useful chasers. Imagine, who has won first time out in the last two campaigns, was only beaten half a length by the selection at Gowran a little under a year ago and went on to finish a creditable fifth in the Martin Pipe. He's from a family of winning chasers in France. Sandor Clegane was beaten little more than a length in the Albert Bartlett before dropping in class to win over 2m4f at Punchestown. He'll obviously want further than this as the season goes on but should give a good account of himself.
A good quality maiden chase, featuring several potentially useful recruits. SANDOR CLEGANE starts out in this sphere over a trip some way short of his best, but he may well get away with it on this stiff track with testing conditions forecast. Paul Nolan's charge made good strides over hurdles last season and appeals as the type to make an even better chaser. Inothewayurthinkin and Imagine are closely matched on hurdles form and rate the main dangers ahead of An Epic Song and Pinkerton.
An intriguing race contested by some smart hurdlers. INOTHEWAYURTHINKIN is just preferred to Sandor Clegane.

1st (5) (7/1 -27%) Potters Party |
7/1(-27%) | (5) Potters Party 7/1, Fair hurdler. 11/5, fourth of 8 in novice chase at Cork (17.6f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Likely to improve. Fell on chase debut, tame run over an inadequate trip last time, capable of better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (6/4 +25%) Sainte Dona |
6/4(+25%) | (10) Sainte Dona 6/4, Promising individual. Fairly useful winner at 23f over hurdles. Fourth of 13 in novice chase at Thurles (20.5f, soft, 5/1) on debut over fences 19 days ago. Has good chance. Easy maiden hurdle winner at Thurles 12 months ago, signs of return to form on chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (18/1 -80%) Rolly Bowley Boy |
18/1(-80%) | (7) Rolly Bowley Boy 18/1, Fair chaser. Winner in hurdle at Clonmel in January. Below form sixth of 10 in novice chase at Clonmel (19.9f, heavy, 7/2). Off 7 months. Up in trip. Hood back on. Not discounted. In contention when falling two out on chasing debut, remote sixth on second attempt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (20/1 +20%) Brucejack |
20/1(+20%) | (1) Brucejack 20/1, Fair hurdler. Fair winner at 22f over hurdles. 25/1, pulled up in novice chase at Gowran (20f, heavy) on debut over fences 38 days ago. Up in trip. Stylish handicap hurdle winner at Ballinrobe in April, saddle slipped on chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (16/1 +20%) Petit King |
16/1(+20%) | (4) Petit King 16/1, Fair hurdler. Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 6 in novice chase (14/1) at Sligo (21.2f, heavy) on debut over fences 41 days ago, not knocked about. 105-rated maiden hurdler, jumped badly on chasing debut at Sligo, hood is discarded. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (6/1 +25%) Low Mileage |
6/1(+25%) | (3) Low Mileage 6/1, Modest chaser. 12/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap chase at this course (24.6f, soft). Off 7 months. More required. Official rating of 112 gives him a leading chance at this level if ready after a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (7/2 +13%) Galon De Vauzelle |
7/2(+13%) | (2) Galon De Vauzelle 7/2, Fair chaser. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable third of 8 in handicap chase (3/1) at this C&D (soft) 31 days ago. Should get competitive. Placed in eight of his 14 races over fences, useful handicap form underlines his chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (10/1 -82%) Zettabyte |
10/1(-82%) | (9) Zettabyte 10/1, Fair chaser. 25/1, second of 12 in novice chase at Downpatrick (19.2f, soft) on debut over fences 32 days ago. Up in trip. May do better, so not written off. Made encouraging chase debut behind a shorter-priced stablemate at Downpatrick a month ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (20/1 +39%) Quite Incredible |
20/1(+39%) | (6) Quite Incredible 20/1, Fair hurdler. Fourth of 6 in novice chase at Sligo (21.2f, heavy, 20/1) 41 days ago. 108-rated maiden hurdler, no sign of winning potential in two starts over fences. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (8) (50/1 -100%) Son Of Hypnos |
50/1(-100%) | (8) Son Of Hypnos 50/1, Fair hurdler. Fair winner at 12f on flat. 50/1, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 8 days ago. Switches from Flat to chase. Up in trip. Poor on last chase run. Three Flat wins, also a winner over hurdles, no impact on only chase start last season. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SAINTE DONA jumped well in front at Thurles on her chasing debut before tiring to finish fourth. She shaped like the run was needed after six months off and could take a fair bit of catching here. Rated 118 after making all for a wide-margin win in a 2m7f hurdle last season, she is now on a mark of 109 in that sphere which makes her eligible for this contest. Low Mileage lacks a recent run and was well beaten on his last few starts but a return to the form of his fourth in a better-class beginners' chase at Gowran in February would see him go close. Galon De Vauzelle, who has tons of handicap experience, was touched off over C&D last December and has been runner-up four more times since.
SAINTE DONA was quite consistent over hurdles and made a positive impression when fourth in a novice at Thurles on chasing debut. She should strip fitter for that and is fancied to land this weaker race at the possible expense of Galon de Vauzelle, Potters Party is open to improvement and can't be dismissed.
With a solid record of reaching the money in handicaps, GALON DE VAUZELLE (nap) may have enough ability to exploit this opportunity.

1st (1) (9/2 +40%) Faith Loving |
9/2(+40%) | (1) Faith Loving 9/2, Multiple point winner weakening when coming down in hunter chase at Down Royal (23.2f, good to soft) when last seen in May. Work to do on handicap debut. Three-time points winner, modest track form, does not appear well handicapped. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (13/2 -136%) Greenway Machine |
13/2(-136%) | (8) Greenway Machine 13/2, Belatedly off the mark in 9-runner handicap chase at Downpatrick (23.5f, soft, 17/2) 32 days ago. 5 lb higher mark will make life tougher but he must enter calculations. Belatedly opened his account at Downpatrick, overall profile remains a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (7/4 +13%) Fox Le Bel |
7/4(+13%) | (3) Fox Le Bel 7/4, Unseated early in point latest but proved admirably consistent in handicap chases last term and returns on a workable mark. Shortlisted. Frustrating type, risky proposition but would not be a surprise winner all the same. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (8/1 +0%) Highstreetfashion |
8/1(+0%) | (6) Highstreetfashion 8/1, Latest win in chase at Down Royal in December. Below form sixth of 10 in handicap chase at Punchestown (24f, good, 17/2) 150 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Won twice last season, below best during the summer, stays well, could make a bold showing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (12/1 +14%) Finding Freedom |
12/1(+14%) | (2) Finding Freedom 12/1, Winning pointer but yet to make an impact under Rules, pulled up in handicap chase at Sligo (25.8f, heavy) latest. Point winner, ordinary track form, hard to be confident after failure to complete at Sligo. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (10/1 +70%) Four Country Roads |
10/1(+70%) | (7) Four Country Roads 10/1, Unreliable type. Two wins from 43 NH runs. Seventh of 9 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, heavy, 50/1) 9 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Won a handicap chase off a lowly 72 at Navan in January, weak form since then. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (4) (9/2 -29%) Rudy Catrail |
9/2(-29%) | (4) Rudy Catrail 9/2, Let down by jumping of late but had been in good form this summer, scoring at Roscommon before excellent second at Kilbeggan (25f). Player if minimising errors here. Front-running veteran who retains ability and enthusiasm, last two runs raise a doubt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (66/1 -32%) Glen Ali |
66/1(-32%) | (5) Glen Ali 66/1, Thoroughly unreliable sort. Pulled up in handicap chase at Perth (20.1f, heavy, 40/1) 41 days ago, tailed off when pulled up fifth. Up in trip. Has struggled since rejoining her original trainer after a fruitless stint in Britain. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The front-running RUDY CATRAIL can resume winning ways on a track that should suit his prominent racing style. At his best when allowed to bowl along in front building up a big lead, the twelve-year-old has been let down by his jumping on recent starts. In a smaller field where he should get an easy time of it under Gavin Brouder, the gelding can record a sixth win under rules. Greenway Machine was a long ways behind Rudy Catrail at Roscommon in August but a bad mistake at the third last ended his chances on that occasion. The son of Robin Des Pres has since registered a victory at Downpatrick. Fox Le Bel has shown enough ability to suggest he can win a race or two but the Liz Doyle-trained gelding will need to improve on recent efforts.
FOX LE BEL acquitted himself well in more competitive contests than this last term and, with his yard going well, he is taken to make a winning return. Rudy Catrail and Greenway Machine look the likeliest dangers.
This is weak and the locally-trained HIGHSTREETFASHION, who managed to win twice last season, is only a token choice.

1st (9) (11/4 +21%) Fratas |
11/4(+21%) | (9) Fratas 11/4, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 13f), has won 5 times in 2023, not seen to best effect in listed event last time. Respected hurdling debutante. Winner of four handicaps in a row between August and October, excellent chance if adapting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (3/1 -50%) Eagle Fang |
3/1(-50%) | (2) Eagle Fang 3/1, Fair maiden on the Flat for Keith Dalgleish who made a promising start over hurdles when second of 10 in juvenile at Cork (16.1f, good to soft) on NH debut 23 days ago. Should improve. Bright start over hurdles when second at Cork last month, Kirkuila finished well in fifth. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (4/1 -14%) Pinot Gris |
4/1(-14%) | (5) Pinot Gris 4/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 14.5f), has won twice in 2023, improved when runner-up last time. Interesting hurdling debutant. Progressive on Flat, only just failed to complete hat-trick at Listowel, deserves respect. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (150/1 -200%) Noble Hilltop |
150/1(-200%) | (11) Noble Hilltop 150/1, Hinted at ability when sixth of 11 in juvenile hurdle (11/1) at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 35 days ago. Moderate sixth of seven finishers on debut at Sedgefield, unlikely to make an impact here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (8/1 +33%) Golden Temple |
8/1(+33%) | (3) Golden Temple 8/1, Fairly useful maiden on Flat who ran below hurdling debut form in first-time blinkers (over jumps) when fourth of 7 at Ballinrobe in September. Needs to get back on track. Fair maiden on the Flat, good run over 1m6f last time, modest hurdles form at Ballinrobe. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (12/1 +57%) Tranquil Sea |
12/1(+57%) | (7) Tranquil Sea 12/1, 1,000 gns 3-y-o, Teofilo gelding. Dam 1½m-13.5f winner on Flat in France. Dam French middle-distance winner/half-sister to Australian Group 1 scorer Polarisation. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (9/2 +10%) Timeless Piece |
9/2(+10%) | (12) Timeless Piece 9/2, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat for Mrs J. Harrington, stays 1½m. Has joined another successful yard ahead of hurdles debut. Two Flat wins including over 1m3f on heavy, rated 13lb inferior to Fratas on the Flat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (80/1 -60%) Macinamillion |
80/1(-60%) | (4) Macinamillion 80/1, Modest maiden on the Flat who was too free when seventh of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Galway (16.4f, heavy) 10 days ago, pulling hard. Needs to reverse Cork form with Eagle Fang and Kilkuila, failed to improve at Galway. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (33/1 +34%) Baby Boss |
33/1(+34%) | (1) Baby Boss 33/1, Montmartre gelding. Dam, 1m winner in France, half-sister to fairly useful 15f hurdle winner in France Misterenrique. Dam French-trained 1m winner, jumps winners in the family, from a top point-to-point yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (8) (125/1 -25%) Bitacora |
125/1(-25%) | (8) Bitacora 125/1, Fair maiden on Flat but ran a long way below that level when last of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Cork (16.1f, good to soft) on NH debut 23 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code. Some ability at Dundalk, in rear in Cork maiden hurdle contested by several of these. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (10) (22/1 +12%) Kirkuila |
22/1(+12%) | (10) Kirkuila 22/1, Modest maiden on the Flat and ran to a similar level sent hurdling when fifth in 10-runner juvenile at Cork (16.1f, good to soft) on NH debut 23 days ago. Shaped quite well at Cork staying on for fifth in a race in which Eagle Fang was second. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
PINOT GRIS is a proven stayer with the potential to make up into a smart juvenile hurdler on testing ground this side of Christmas. The Gavin Cromwell trained grey won twice during the summer months, before running a career best on his reappearance when just touched off in a better grade at the Listowel Festival. With the winner of that race franking the form in a premier handicap next time, there is every likelihood that Pinot Gris has more to offer. Provided he takes to jumping, he could be an exciting prospect. Fratas, a five-time winner for Michael Mulvany this season, is a worthy opponent. With the speed to win over a mile and stamina for middle distances she has the right attributes for a hurdler. Semblance Of Order, a rare National Hunt runner for trainer Andy Oliver, has to be respected.
PINOT GRIS makes plenty of appeal now switching to hurdling based on his highly progressive Flat profile, so he earns the vote. Eagle Fang made an encouraging start to his hurdling career when second at Cork last month and is entitled to improve, while Fratas and Timeless Piece are two other interesting recruits to this sphere.
If FRATAS can make an efficient transition to hurdling she will be hard to beat on the evidence of progressive form on the Flat

8/13(-9%) | (5) An Tobar 8/13, Easily won sole start in points (Jan 2022). It's taken a while to get him to the track but could have a big say here if the betting vibes are strong.

14th (15) (150/1 -50%) Mini Getaway |
150/1(-50%) | (15) Mini Getaway 150/1, Once-raced maiden. Ninth of 18 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 66/1) on NH debut 16 days ago. Finished midfield in a Limerick maiden 16 days ago (soft to heavy); opposable for now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NEW YORK STYLE, who was bought by J.P. McManus after finishing runner-up on her racecourse debut at Wexford last October, can provide an instant return. A half-sister to a black type horse also owned by McManus, she is certainly in the right hands to make a successful career over hurdles. St Cuthbert's Cave, a bumper winner at Kelso for Rose Dobbin in May, makes his debut for Gordon Elliott. Subsequently purchased by Gigginstown House Stud, the five-year-old has plenty of untapped potential. Viceregent had become somewhat disappointing for Charles Byrnes prior to winning his last start on the flat recently. Now starting out for new connections, he has plenty of experience over hurdles which should prove an asset in this company.
ST CUTHBERT'S ROAD has switched to Gordon Elliott since making a winning bumper debut in the spring and gets the nod to do likewise over hurdles, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Henry De Bromhead pair New York Style and An Tobar are other interesting recruits to the hurdle ranks, while Viceregent, who has changed hands since a Flat success at Navan last month, looks pick of those with hurdle experience.
St Cuthbert's Cave is of obvious interest but AN TOBAR didn't half look good when winning his point by a wide margin.

1st (3) (1/12 +85%) Absolute Notions |
1/12(+85%) | (3) Absolute Notions 1/12, Disappointed at Aintree on final start last term but had won 2 of his 4 starts (at up to 19.5f) previously and sets a high standard here. Heavy going is a worry but he meets Joyeux Machin on 10lb better than handicap terms. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (8/1 +33%) Starman |
8/1(+33%) | (2) Starman 8/1, Fair hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Clonmel in September. 4/1, good second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, soft) 32 days ago. Work to do with principals here, though. Fair standard of form lately but not in the same league as the likely market leaders. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (28/1 +58%) Cruisin Susan |
28/1(+58%) | (4) Cruisin Susan 28/1, Modest hurdler. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle (4/1) at Tramore (16f, heavy) 26 days ago. Back up in trip. Up against it. Modest form since winning a Tramore maiden last season, out of her depth in this company. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ABSOLUTE NOTIONS, runner-up in a Grade 1 novice hurdle at the Dublin Racing Festival in February, should take beating if fit enough on his reappearance. Although there has to be a slight concern about the ground, given that he was pulled up at Aintree on his final run last season on testing going, he appears to have a class edge here. Joyeux Machin is clear second best on ratings but could get closer than his mark suggests given he has the advantage of a recent run. Paul Nolan's six-year-old has been kept on the go throughout the summer so should lack for nothing in terms of fitness. He, too, may not want it to get too testing. Starman has plenty to find with the top two but can make the running and that might bring him into contention if the race becomes tactical.
ABSOLUTE NOTIONS was going the right way prior to his disappointing effort in the Sefton Novices Hurdle last April and looks to have been found a good opportunity to get back on track here. Joyeux Machin is the obvious danger.
Neither of the main protagonists may relish the ground. ABSOLUTE OTIONS is better suited by the race conditions than Joyeux Machin

1st (13) (17/2 -13%) Glenabo Bridge |
17/2(-13%) | (13) Glenabo Bridge 17/2, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Good third of 19 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Gowran (20.2f, heavy) 38 days ago. Can make presence felt. Enjoys this ground and kept plugging away to make the frame at Gowran last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (11/4 -38%) Quornofamonday |
11/4(-38%) | (7) Quornofamonday 11/4, Off 4 months before recording a good third of 15 in handicap hurdle (5/2) at Gowran (16f, heavy) 39 days ago. Back up in trip. Still has few miles on the clock and he's expected to be bang there despite a 2 lb rise. Improved third at Gowran and won't be far away with a repeat of that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (11/2 -38%) C'est Rien |
11/2(-38%) | (1) C'est Rien 11/2, Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs. Tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Thurles (23f, soft) 19 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Has a lot of weight but is one of the better options after her last two efforts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (5/1 +0%) Papa Barns |
5/1(+0%) | (12) Papa Barns 5/1, 28/1, best effort when third of 15 in handicap hurdle at this course (16f, soft) 31 days ago. Up in trip. Needs to build on it now. Stayed on well to take third over 2m last time and that represented marked improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (13/2 +46%) Western Model |
13/2(+46%) | (4) Western Model 13/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Off 6 months before posting a good sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft, 25/1) 23 days ago. Open to further improvement. Player. Returning from six months off when a 15l sixth on handicap debut at Cork (2m3f). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (25/1 +0%) Kiss My Lucky Egg |
25/1(+0%) | (8) Kiss My Lucky Egg 25/1, 12/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16.6f, heavy) 12 days ago, losing touch before 3 out. Back up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Fourth at Gowran in September but not easily trusted to repeat that effort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (22/1 +56%) Getaway Henry |
22/1(+56%) | (6) Getaway Henry 22/1, Ninth of 15 in novice hurdle (125/1) at Clonmel (19.1f, soft) 180 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut with more required. Nothing to show for his seven starts under rules and plenty to prove now handicapping. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (10) (14/1 +13%) Wild As Fire |
14/1(+13%) | (10) Wild As Fire 14/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle (9/1) at this course (24f, soft) 36 days ago, weakening when not fluent 3 out. Others more persuasive. Poor last run but each-way claims on his previous sixth of 23 at Naas. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (16/1 -33%) Blackjack Boy |
16/1(-33%) | (3) Blackjack Boy 16/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. Returned to form when third of 14 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Limerick (21f, heavy) 17 days ago. Needs to back it up. Possibly wants good ground but considered after his recent third at Limerick. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (14) (17/2 +53%) Punk Rock Girl |
17/2(+53%) | (14) Punk Rock Girl 17/2, 17/2, below form tenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (24f, soft) 46 days ago. Merits consideration if shrugging off latest effort. 3m too far last time and had previously made the frame over 2m3f at Bangor. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (16) (18/1 +55%) War God |
18/1(+55%) | (16) War God 18/1, One win from 22 NH runs. 18/1, twelfth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Former maiden winner but very regressive these days and hard to recommend. |

|PU| (11) (22/1 -100%) Chrisaldy |
22/1(-100%) | (11) Chrisaldy 22/1, 16/1, eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Needs to take a step forward. Wasn't far behind Western Model when shaping nicely after his absence at Cork. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (28/1 -40%) Billable Grant |
28/1(-40%) | (2) Billable Grant 28/1, 11/1 and blinkered for 1st time, ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) 142 days ago. Has work to do. Latest run was a tad more promising and his mark continues to fall. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (50/1 +24%) Castle Arms Casa |
50/1(+24%) | (9) Castle Arms Casa 50/1, 40/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.5f, soft) 32 days ago. Tongue strap/cheekpieces on for 1st time. Bad mistake prior to pulling up in a 2m5f handicap at Downpatrick for which she was 40-1. |

|PU| (15) (66/1 +0%) Save Tonight |
66/1(+0%) | (15) Save Tonight 66/1, 33/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at this course (16f, soft) 31 days ago, behind when slow 4 out. Back up in trip. 33-1 when pulled up in a handicap here a month ago and now unplaced in all 12 starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (100/1 +0%) Dylan Og |
100/1(+0%) | (5) Dylan Og 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, pulled up in novice hurdle at Clonmel (18.5f, heavy, 125/1). First run for yard after leaving Ms Debbie Hartnett with it to prove on his handicap hurdle debut. Makes handicap debut but he showed no worthwhile form in maidens; new yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
PAPA BARNS caught the eye when staying on into third here on his last visit and may be able to go a couple of places better now. The lightly-raced Mustameet gelding posted a much-improved performance on his return this season, when third to Brownstone, and this step up in trip looks like it should suit. C'est Rien has been knocking on the door recently and is a leading contender here again in a moderate enough contest. Quornofamonday is another who showed improvement on his first start of this season, when third at Gowran Park, and has to be on the shortlist.
QUORNOFAMONDAY shaped well after a lay-off when third at Gowran last time and can build on it here to open his account at the chief expense of Western Model who also looks to have more to offer on the back of a good Cork sixth on his handicap debut. Glenabo Bridge appeals as the pick of the rest for place purposes.
The fact that C'EST RIEN has performed creditably back-to-back bodes well and a trip just shy of 3m seemed to stretch her at Thurles.

1st (14) (4/1 +50%) Duffys Getaway |
4/1(+50%) | (14) Duffys Getaway 4/1, Twelfth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (24f, good to soft, 5/1) 124 days ago, weakening before straight. Bounce back rates possible returning from a break. Finished fourth in big-field handicaps on three occasions and he stays well. |

2nd (7) (25/1 +24%) Kiln Time |
25/1(+24%) | (7) Kiln Time 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, seventeenth of 18 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (20.4f, good to soft). Off over 2 years. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Quiet in maidens and makes handicap debut after a mammoth absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (5/1 +0%) Mahler Appeal |
5/1(+0%) | (4) Mahler Appeal 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden who finished runner-up on 3 of his 4 starts in handicap hurdles last season. Rare poor effort over fences when last seen during the spring and he's a likely type to bounce back returned to smaller obstacles. Ten-race maiden but placed over hurdles and fences; no trip/ground issues. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (13) (20/1 +50%) Drimsree Lad |
20/1(+50%) | (13) Drimsree Lad 20/1, Remains a maiden after 24 NH runs. 200/1, last of 5 in novice chase at Clonmel (24f, heavy) 40 days ago, left behind from end of back straight. Still, plenty to prove ahead of this return to hurdling. Third in this last year but this 12yo is now a 24-race maiden. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (12/1 +64%) Lightontheriver |
12/1(+64%) | (15) Lightontheriver 12/1, Eleventh of 17 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at Cork (19f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Up in trip. Beaten about 15l in a 2m3f handicap at Cork three weeks ago; up in distance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (40/1 +0%) Ferrum |
40/1(+0%) | (10) Ferrum 40/1, 40/1, first run since leaving John McConnell when nineteenth of 20 in handicap at Navan (14f, heavy) 20 days ago. That run may have been needed on the back of 6 months off but good deal to prove in any case returned to timber. Tailed off on the Flat last month and has yet to be placed in that scene or over hurdles. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (18/1 +28%) Courting Vickie |
18/1(+28%) | (12) Courting Vickie 18/1, Unreliable individual. 10/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy) 17 days ago, tailed off when pulled up before 2 out. Dual winner on a decent mark but modest of late and best form is over shorter. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (28/1 +30%) Copper Coast |
28/1(+30%) | (8) Copper Coast 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at this course (16f, soft) 31 days ago, behind when pulled up before 2 out. Significantly up in trip. Not progressive but tries 3m for the first time and there's stamina in the pedigree. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (19) (33/1 +50%) Treyarnon Bay |
33/1(+50%) | (19) Treyarnon Bay 33/1, Unreliable type. 50/1, twelfth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.2f, heavy) 38 days ago. Reserve 3. Reserve; ex-Nicky Henderson; shown zilch in three handicaps for this yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (10/1 +17%) Heart Of Rome |
10/1(+17%) | (5) Heart Of Rome 10/1, 17/2, below form ninth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (24f, soft) 46 days ago. Previous Down Royal effort contained definite promise however, and he's remains less exposed than most. Poor last time but his previous third over 3m at Down Royal brings him into it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (5/1 -43%) Toor Moon |
5/1(-43%) | (2) Toor Moon 5/1, Creditable third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, good to soft, 10/3) 23 days ago, running on. Up in trip and one for the shortlist. Remains a maiden but has raised his game in his last three handicaps; thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (7/2 +30%) Larkfield Lusive |
7/2(+30%) | (3) Larkfield Lusive 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 17 in novice hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy, 12/1) 17 days ago. Not taken lightly. Improved second in a maiden and might have got in lightly here for his handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (16) (7/1 +42%) Ocean Legacy |
7/1(+42%) | (16) Ocean Legacy 7/1, Creditable sixth of 10 in handicap chase at Punchestown (23.3f, good to soft, 10/1) 27 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Capable handicapper over hurdles/fences but may ideally prefer drier ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (66/1 -100%) Charlie Bawnie |
66/1(-100%) | (11) Charlie Bawnie 66/1, Fifteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Cork (19f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Up in trip. Visor on 1st time. Excuses in her first two handicaps but no obvious ones when tailed off at Cork. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (17) (66/1 +0%) Manwal |
66/1(+0%) | (17) Manwal 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in handicap at Down Royal (12.8f, good to firm, 50/1) 60 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Reserve 1. Reserve; makes handicap debut after showing little in maidens; poor on Flat of late. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
RESERVE JUDGEMENT should appreciate stepping back up in trip here. The Ocovango gelding stayed on one paced when fourth on his return to action at Sligo 11 days ago over two-and-a-half miles. His sole racecourse win came at just slightly shorter than this extended two-mile-seven trip around a big galloping track in Down Royal. Toor Moon has been knocking on the door and looks an obvious contender. Larkfield Lusive ran well when chasing home Ask Anything in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time and back in handicap company he looks like another for the shortlist.
TOOR MOON remains a maiden but he arrives on the back of a string of consistent efforts in handicaps over shorter in recent months and with this step up in trip expected to hold no fears, he earns the vote to come out on top. Reserve Judgement and Mahler Appeal head the dangers, with Larkfield Lusive another to consider.
A good few with chances. LARKFIELD LUSIVE is one of the least exposed contenders and he might not be on a bad mark.

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.
