The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
KHAFAAQ could return to action with a victory. He won three of his last five races for Andy Slattery and has since moved to Pat Martin. It is slightly concerning that he hasn't been seen since August, but he has gone well fresh before and trip and ground are ideal for him. Denis Hogan is well represented and his Roderick looks a big player after a fifth in a 50-70 handicap at Leopardstown. Hogan also saddles Jupiter Rock, who could get involved as he switches back to the Flat from hurdling, while his Neandra has British form to support her case.
RODERICK's fifth in a handicap at Leopardstown 5 days ago is the best recent form on offer and, with blinkers applied, he's taken to capitalise on this drop in grade. Khafaaq is an obvious danger if tuned up for his reappearance and Zahee can't be ruled out.
Denis Hogan runs three and may collect with RODERICK, not the most consistent type but well enough treated by the race conditions

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
MATAARIKI is hard to get away from after a professional display when making a winning debut at this track last month. After she swept home by almost four lengths, connections mentioned stakes races so she is clearly well thought of. Glor Tire was a decisive winner of a fillies' maiden over C&D, and 10lb claimer Gabriella Adela Hill is now enlisted so this Teofilo filly races off a light weight. You Owe Me Money hasn't been beaten far into third in her last three races, while Whimsy has finished runner-up in no less than four of her last five races and ought to put in another solid shift.
MATAARIKI sets the standard with the form of her impressive winning debut and, with improvement on the cards, she's capable of following up at the likely expense of Glor Tire, who upped her game to make a successful return in a C&D maiden. You Owe Me Money is another one to consider.
Impressive on debut here last month MATAARIKI looks to have been found a good opportunity of a follow-up win

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CLEVER AND CUTE was outgunned by the winner of a C&D maiden, but showed plenty of ability in second. That was her first outing and the winner made all at a good clip so she should come on from it. A good run by Mataariki in the preceding race on this card would bode well for Quatrain's prospects. The latter couldn't make an impression on that winner of a C&D fillies' maiden last month, but certainly ran well on her first start. Abbey Actress showed marked improvement in fifth in a decent maiden at the Curragh so she merits consideration. Glen Princess, Kansai, Pink Aurora and Magical Bay are all possible improvers.
The market should prove highly informative but Henry de Bromhead's Mastercraftsman filly shaped well when a debut second over C&D and can build on it to go one better now. Jim Bolger's Clever And Cute also looks to have better days ahead of her and is next on the list ahead of Glen Princess and Pink Aurora.
A good showing by Mataariki in the 5.50 would enhance confidence in QUATRAIN (nap) who can build on her promising C&D debut in any case

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
THEQUIETMAN stayed on for second on debut in Leopardstown and, granted normal improvement, could take a bit of beating. He made sustained headway in the straight and was well clear of the odds-on favourite in third. The winner of that race didn't look out of place when fourth in Listed company on his next start. Nativity Square brings plenty of experience into battle and can get in the mix, while Vadali is entitled to improve from a reappearance fourth at this venue. Subjugate, from an in-form yard, and Shamsuddin, who was runner-up in Punchestown last September and holds a mark of 81, shouldn't be underestimated.
THEQUIETMAN made an encouraging start to his career when second at Leopardstown last month and can build on that promise and can go one better now. Vadali shaped quite well on his C&D reappearance a fortnight ago and can give the selection most to think about ahead of Jim Bolger's Nativity Square.
Normal improvement from an initial run at Leopardstown could be enough to see THEQUIETMAN get his head in front.

Hopkins |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ANGEL ON FIRE beat Pink Socks by a neck over C&D on testing ground last autumn and has returned in good form again this spring. The selection finished strongly from off the pace over seven furlongs at Naas before filling the runner-up spot over 1m1f at Leopardstown and probably found an extra furlong too far at Sligo last time. There is little to choose between Tall Story and The Bog Bank on running behind Play It Again Zaam here a fortnight ago and the Ross O'Sullivan-trained gelding appears the greater threat on the likely soft ground. Boadicea Belle won over this trip at Dundalk last month, while Perfect Curves and Numidia are others to consider.
ANGEL ON FIRE has been in good form this spring and might be able to get his head back in front now. Asisaid won on his 2023 reappearance and heads the dangers along with Pink Socks, who had 2 near misses here last autumn, and The Bog Bank.
Despite an outer draw it could pay to side with ANGEL ON FIRE, a C&D winner who comes here on he back of two good runs in defeat

KILLEEMORE LAD won twice over hurdles last year and was also placed a couple of times in staying Flat handicaps including on soft ground at Thurles last October. The Andy Slattery-trained gelding has returned in good form over hurdles this spring notably when beating all bar Pigeon House in a 24-runner handicap at the Punchestown Festival and now switches back to the level on a competitive mark. War Thunder was having his first start for Paul Flynn when beating Glyde Ranger by half a length over a similar trip at Sligo earlier this month and the latter was given plenty to do when a strong-finishing fifth at Navan on Saturday. Paradise Lost and C&D winner Rumi are others to note.
Punchestown hurdling runner-up KILLEEMORE LAD reverts to this sphere on a handy-looking mark so edges the vote in a very open handicap. In-form maiden Paradise Lost is next on the list, with War Thunder, Striking and Ricky Bobby also in the picture.
Glyde Ranger was outbattled by WAR THUNDER at Sligo and it could be a similar scenario here

WHATCOULDHAVEBEEN gained a fourth career win (2 Flat/2 hurdles) when taking a 2m6f handicap hurdle by nearly ten lengths in first-time cheekpieces at Fairyhouse on Irish Grand National Day. The selection was subsequently far from disgraced behind Teahupoo in Grade 1 company at Punchestown and now reverts to the Flat off what appears a reasonable mark. Bold Approach held a career high rating of 99 and is proven over this trip in the past while Narlita won over 1m4f on heavy ground at Bellewstown last year and should progress from her reappearance at Sligo. Grann's Boy and Mephisto both ran well in separate divisions of a 1m5f Navan handicap last Saturday, while Mighty Mo Missouri shaped well in a charity race at Punchestown.
GRANN'S BOY rates the pick of the weights so gets the vote with this step up in distance also a likely plus for Harry Rogers' son of Zoffany. Leopardstown-third Bold Approach heads the list of dangers, although in-form pair Mephisto and Whatcouldhavebeen merit plenty of respect too.
Making a quick reappearance after finishing a good third at Navan on Saturday, GRANN'S BOY gets the vote, despite a stamina concern

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.
