The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Based on the summary, 0.91/1 Stuzzikini is the most likely to do well as he has previous form as a useful hurdler and is in \
STUZZIKINI can bounce back here after a disappointing effort last time. The Champs Elysees gelding had been runner-up twice before a below-par effort when pulling up at Down Royal on St Patrick's Day. It was reported that he never travelled that day and better ground now may suit. Je T'ai Porte didn't run too badly when a staying-on sixth at Naas last time and, in lesser company now, she could play a bigger part. Alhaajeb is another Flat winner who may progress from his spin over hurdles at Fontwell last November. He was well beaten then but the experience should stand to him.
STUZZIKINI has to bounce back from a heavy defeat at Down Royal a month ago but he couldn't be in better hands and he sets the clear standard if he is back on his game. Port Nelson and Chequer Square can fight it out for minor honours.
A chance is taken on PORT NELSON to improve enough from his solid Ballinrobe comeback run last week to score.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
5.5/1 Fruit Blossom seems like a strong contender, having recently placed well in a handicap hurdle on heavy ground. 8/1 Betty Dutton and 8.5/1 Presenting Doyen also have potential, as they are both lightly-raced maidens making their handicap hurdle debut. However, as a language model AI, my predictions may not match the actual outcome and should be used for informational purposes only.
FEET OF A DANCER could be nicely treated now trying handicap company. The Authorized filly is still unexposed on her fourth career outing and stepped forward nicely to score at Wexford last time. That form has received a boost since, with the third horse, All About Lucy, scoring at Cork recently. Scenic Look tops the weights and takes a drop in class after a good run in a decent mares' contest at Limerick last month. She finished off well then behind Deeply Superficial to grab second late on and appeared to run above her handicap mark. Parvos has been running consistently and it was another solid effort to finish third to Nine Graces at Ballinrobe a week ago. She looks like place material again.
Plenty of depth to this handicap with SCENIC LOOK just about the most persuasive option having run a cracker from unfavourable terms in a minor event a month ago. Betty Dutton, Feet of A Dancer and Jane Wilde are a trio of potential threats.
SCENIC LOOK seemed to run above herself in a Limerick conditions hurdle last time and can score back to this grade.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Based on the summary, 3.2/1 Fameaftertheglory looks like a strong contender as a fairly useful hurdler who has made the frame in each of his last four starts, with his latest being a second place finish in a novice hurdle at Clonmel. The addition of cheekpieces for the first time could give him an extra boost. Additionally, 20/1 Ostend and Merits may be other potential contenders based on their recent performances in novice hurdles.
ZAIDI can strike here after a fine run to finish second on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse over Easter. The Born To Sea gelding was an impressive bumper winner at Thurles last month and went off favourite to open his account over timber first time up. He had to settle for second behind Canal End that day, but a similar effort should be enough to get his head in front again now. Fameaftertheglory is becoming a frustrating sort and has had plenty of chances, but he chased home Feu Du Bresil at Clonmel recently and is sure to be thereabouts again. Ostend was no match for easy winner Parmenion at Leopardstown early last month, but it was still a promising effort against a horse who was subsequently Grade 2-placed and he could get involved for the minor honours again.
This can go to ZAIDI, who made an encouraging start over timber at Fairyhouse earlier this month and remains open to improvement. Fameaftertheglory and Skradin rate the principal dangers.
ZAIDI(nap) ran a fine race at Fairyhouse on hurdling debut and can improve enough to score.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
5/1 Merry Moves seems to be the strongest contender based on their recent form and performance in a handicap hurdle in heavy conditions at Limerick. They also have experience over the longer distance compared to the other horses. 33/1 Drimsree Lad and 1.88/1 Winnie Woodnutt may also have a chance based on their recent performances. However, the others seem to have limited appeal or require significant improvement to be in the running.
Stepping up in trip now should suit three-time point-to-point winner WINNIE WOODNUTT. The Kalanisi mare won between the flags at Borris House early last month and ran really well on her return to the racecourse when third at Naas just over three weeks ago. That was over two miles and going up to three now could bring improvement. Cafe Del Mar was well beaten when sixth at Tramore just five days ago, but should appreciate the better going now and it would be no surprise if she got a lot closer. Hockworthy Flyer showed some decent form last season and could get involved on her return to action. The Yeats mare may appreciate stepping up in trip.
ELLE DORADO ROCK arrives on back of a career-best effort on the Flat and remains open to improvement over hurdles. He gets the nod. Merry Moves and Winnie Woodnutt head the list of dangers.
It may pay to take a chance on FEMALE APPROACH, a dual Flat winner on good ground who is now upped in trip

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
1.1/1 (4) Happy D'ex is predicted to do well based on the summary.
This looks like a good opportunity for HAPPY D'EX to gain a deserved success over fences. The Saddler Maker mare has been running against some decent rivals over the winter and has been placed on all three previous chase starts. Most recently, she chased home Time To Rocco at Thurles last month and a similar effort should be enough to get her head in front now. Bay Ambition has plenty of experience over fences and should be thereabouts. She was a faller last time, when still involved for the places, having run well to finish third at Clonmel previously. Choice Of Words was well beaten on her chase debut at Thurles, when behind Happy D'ex, but may improve from that experience and could get closer now.
This looks a good opportunity for Gordon Elliott's HAPPY D'EX to get off the mark over fences. Bay Ambition looks the chief threat if none the worse for her recent fall at Clonmel. It's too soon to suggest Choice of Words won't replicate her hurdle form over fences and she may prove best of the rest.
Happy d'Ex holds legitimate claims but a chance is taken on the chasing debutante ELLE PERFECTA, for whom the trip/ground are ideal

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
It is difficult to predict which horse will do well without more information such as their past performances in similar races and their current form. However, some horses to consider as potential contenders based on the summary are 2.5/1 (7) Huntingtown Fair, 5.5/1 (3) Arctic Ambition, 7/1 (2) Oscer Romero, and 10/1 (8) The Connector.
GALI FLIGHT may be able to gain an overdue win. The French-bred has been placed nine times and has run well on both outings over fences this season. He seems versatile ground-wise and Niall Moore takes 7lb off his back again, which helps as he was due to carry top weight on his first start in handicap company over fences. Oscer Romero was a game winner at Wexford three weeks ago in heavy ground. He does go on better, but had a tough enough race last time and may find this tougher after a 5lb rise. Arctic Ambition ran well when fourth on his return over timber at Navan in February. His form over fences is stronger and he could play a big part in this.
ARCTIC AMBITION got back on track returned to hurdling when fourth in a big field at Navan and gets the vote back over fences. Gali Flight, Huntingtown and Oscer Romero complete the shortlist.
Preference is for HUNTINGTOWN, a winner here over hurdles this time last year and fresh from a promising comeback run

4/1 (6) Magheralin Mick is the most promising from this summary, as it has won over hurdles and had a respectable fourth place finish in its debut over fences. It is also open to progress, which suggests it has room for improvement.
SLANE HILL is a chasing type and may be able to make a winning start over the larger obstacles. The Shantou gelding won over timber at Naas in December and Barry Connell said then that he wouldn't stay over hurdles too long. This looks a nice starting point over fences. Bodhisattva was one of the higher rated of these over hurdles and has to be respected now switching to fences. The Leading Light gelding won a decent maiden hurdle at Navan last year and has run some solid races in handicaps since. Clondaw Hollow didn't make much impression when third behind a couple of smart sorts in Bronn and Grandero Bello on his chase debut at Fairyhouse. He could get closer now in this company.
CLONDAW HOLLOW faced a stiff task on his chase bow at Fairyhouse but showed enough to make him a big player in this. Magheralin Mick offered something to work on when fourth on his chase bow/return at Clonmel 2 weeks ago and is a potential threat, while Slane Hill and Bodhisattva can go well if taking to this sphere at the first attempt.
A very open-looking beginners chase in which SLANE HILL could be up to making a successful transition to fences if handling the ground

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.
