The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A weak affair, with VALSOPRESA the stand-out name. A brother to Presenting Percy, he was a beaten favourite at Down Royal last month but can be forgiven for that performance after his saddle slipped early on. Third on debut in a stronger contest at Naas in February, a reproduction of that effort should see him hard to beat. Third on recent outings at Wexford and Listowel respectively, Johnny M is capable of making his presence felt, while it'll be interesting to see how Kiss My Lucky Egg fares on his first start for Peter McCreery. Successful on debut in a bumper at Newton Abbot, he since proved disappointing in four starts for Emmet Mullins. A dual winner on the level, Blackcastle Storm has definite claims with Keith Donoghue aboard, while others of interest are Qatar Spirit, Edge Of My Seat and Il Silenzio.
VALSORPRESA has some fairly useful form to his name and didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Down Royal last time so can open his account here. Edge Of My Seat appeals as the one to chase home Gordon Elliott's 5-y-o ahead of hurdling newcomer Blackcastle Storm who was fairly useful on the level.
This looks a very weak maiden and VALSORPRESA won't get a better opportunity

1st (8) (3.2/1 +42%) Jinxs Link |
3.2/1(+42%) | (8) Jinxs Link 3.2/1, Placed in handicap hurdles at Ballinrobe and Downpatrick at the start of the summer. Respectable seventh in a maiden on the Flat debut 9 days ago. Another to consider. Placings at Ballinrobe and Downpatrick would give him each-way claims here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (5.5/1 +31%) Maggie Walsh |
5.5/1(+31%) | (6) Maggie Walsh 5.5/1, Won handicap hurdle at Tramore in June. Might have found run coming too soon when only eleventh of 25 in handicap at Punchestown (19.6f, good, 15/2) 8 days later. Claims if back to the Tramore form. Tramore winner can't be ruled out here given an error-free round. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||

28/1(-27%) | (17) Rathnaleen Zoey 28/1, 66/1, sixteenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.6f, good) 40 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. RESERVE. Maiden promise but struggling in handicaps; tongue tie tried; reserve. |

14/1(+13%) | (1) Applejack Poet 14/1, 28/1, first run since leaving Matthew J. Smith when below form ninth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.6f, good) 40 days ago. No impact despite declining mark in handicaps, remains opposable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (28/1 -12%) Red Striker |
28/1(-12%) | (7) Red Striker 28/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.8f, good to soft, 25/1) 14 days ago. Yet to hit form this summer, way behind Maggie Walsh at Tramore on penultimate. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (8.5/1 -113%) The Virginian |
8.5/1(-113%) | (4) The Virginian 8.5/1, 7/1, good fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.2f, good to soft) 39 days ago. Not taken lightly. Staying on in 2m handicaps of late; extra trip could suit and one to consider. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (2) (3/1 +33%) Black Tonic |
3/1(+33%) | (2) Black Tonic 3/1, Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (16f, soft, 22/1) 121 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Tom Weston. Unexposed type and worth noting in the betting. Ex British-trained; hard to see him making an immediate impact for current yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (25/1 -25%) Fireworks |
25/1(-25%) | (3) Fireworks 25/1, 28/1, sixth of 8 in minor event at Bellewstown (12.2f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Cheekpieces back on. Poor on last hurdle run. Mixing hurdles, chases and flat of late with little impact; hard to fancy. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (5/1 -50%) On My Bike |
5/1(-50%) | (5) On My Bike 5/1, 17/2, excellent fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (20f, good) 13 days ago. Unexposed sort who is high on the shortlist. Bellewstown run encouraging; slight drop in trip could suit on that evidence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (10) (50/1 -100%) No Show |
50/1(-100%) | (10) No Show 50/1, Modest Flat winner. Thrice-raced maiden over hurdles. Makes handicap hurdle debut. No show in three maidens; hard to make a case for on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (9) (50/1 -178%) Enchanted One |
50/1(-178%) | (9) Enchanted One 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.6f, good to soft, 100/1) 38 days ago. Ran okay in a maiden hurdle here last summer but hasn't progressed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A case can be made for many of these, with THE VIRGINIAN the suggestion. Not beaten far on his most recent starts at Punchestown and Roscommon respectively, it will be disappointing if he's not involved towards the business end here, with Peter Smithers claiming a valuable 7lb. On My Bike is given second preference. The Gavin Cromwell-trained five-year-old ran a fine race on just his second start in handicap company at Bellewstown recently and he is open to further improvement. Maggie Walsh is out of Akatara, who was a bit of a course specialist, winning three times at Kilbeggan. A dual winner in her own right, the Dylan Thomas bay is capable of making her presence felt. Cathys Quest is a half-sister to Sole Pretender and it'll be interesting to see how she fares in first time cheekpieces, while others for the shortlist are Jinxs Link, the Philip Rothwell-trained Prince Of Air and UK import Black Tonic, who makes his debut for Richard O'Brien.
Gavin Cromwell's ON MY BIKE was an encouraging fourth at Bellewstown on his return from a break 13 days ago and a lightly-raced profile gives him the potential to build on that. The Virginian is second choice on the back of his good fourth at Roscommon last month. Jinxs Link and Maggie Walsh also make the shortlist.
Having not looked to stay 2m4f at Bellewstown ON MY BIKE should appreciate this drop in trip

1st (3) (2.5/1 +44%) Kellie's Dream |
2.5/1(+44%) | (3) Kellie's Dream 2.5/1, One win from 3 runs last season. Back from 10 months off when creditable fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) 8 days ago. Entitled to build on that and holds solid claims. Encouraging Downpatrick comeback run 8 days ago, entitled to come on for it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (16) (8/1 +11%) Silverstrand |
8/1(+11%) | (16) Silverstrand 8/1, Respectable seventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.8f, good, 11/1) 8 days ago. Figures off a handy mark. Best form over further, not sure this drop in trip will suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (100/1 -203%) Georgie's Gal |
100/1(-203%) | (9) Georgie's Gal 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 250/1, eleventh of 18 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (22f, good) 41 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Beaten huge distances in maidens, can only be watched on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (20/1 -233%) Slaney Bank |
20/1(-233%) | (5) Slaney Bank 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, eleventh of 17 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good) 41 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Worth a market check on handicap debut (yard had a gambled-on winner recently). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (6/1 -50%) Breagagh |
6/1(-50%) | (2) Breagagh 6/1, Good third of 13 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) 8 days ago. Stepping back in the right direction. Recent Downpatrick third was encouraging; place claims if reproducing that run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (14/1 +65%) Lonracha |
14/1(+65%) | (7) Lonracha 14/1, Tenth of 14 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Wexford (17.4f, good to soft) 51 days ago. Never counted on May return at Wexford; declining mark but remains opposable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (6.5/1 +46%) Shining Aitch |
6.5/1(+46%) | (10) Shining Aitch 6.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fair winner at 10f on flat. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (12.1f, good to soft, 16/1) 14 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Hasn't looked a natural jumper; recent flat form okay so potential improver. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (15) (11/1 +31%) Katzoff |
11/1(+31%) | (15) Katzoff 11/1, Eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Wexford (17.4f, good to soft) 51 days ago. Others preferred. Poor under both codes, fair bit to find on recent Wexford run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (10/1 -11%) Corkbeg |
10/1(-11%) | (1) Corkbeg 10/1, Latest win in hurdle at Wexford in May. 7/1, keeping on when fell 2 out in handicap hurdle at Sligo (19.9f, good) 12 days ago. Races off same mark and warrants respect. Disappointing since Wexford comeback win but top-weight still can't be ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (66/1 +0%) Celtic Light |
66/1(+0%) | (6) Celtic Light 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, sixteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.9f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Tailed off on handicap debut at Cork a week ago; first-time cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (5/1 +23%) Beat Of The Sea |
5/1(+23%) | (12) Beat Of The Sea 5/1, C&D winner. Twenty eight runs since last win in 2020. 11/1, good fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Blinkers back on. Claims on best form. Dual C&D winner off much higher marks; recent Wexford effort encouraging. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (33/1 -32%) Cappacurry Croi |
33/1(-32%) | (8) Cappacurry Croi 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, seventh of 11 in novice hurdle at Sligo (17.6f, good) 38 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Well held in four maidens; first-time cheekpieces here on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (11) (33/1 +50%) Velvet Reel |
33/1(+50%) | (11) Velvet Reel 33/1, Eleventh of 13 in handicap hurdle (125/1) at Sligo (20f, good to soft) 38 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Recent Sligo handicap debut run was poor; tongue tie now fitted but hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (14) (40/1 +0%) Getaway Molly |
40/1(+0%) | (14) Getaway Molly 40/1, 80/1, fourteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.3f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Visored for 1st time. Beaten a long way in 2m5f handicaps lately; drops in trip and visor tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (4) (22/1 +12%) O'faolains Glory |
22/1(+12%) | (4) O'faolains Glory 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 17 in novice hurdle (100/1) at Tipperary (20f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Improvement required on handicap hurdle debut. Unexposed entering handicaps; hooded first-time and a potential improver. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A wide-open affair, with CRACKLINROSE the suggestion. Placed three times last summer, the Yeats six-year-old disappointed on her return to action at Tramore but is entitled to come on for that effort. She looks nicely treated off a mark of 80 and with Liam Quinlan claiming 5lb, it'll be disappointing if she is not involved towards the business end. A dual course and distance winner, Beat Of The Sea is given second preference. While it's approaching three years since her most recent success, she did run well to finish fifth on her latest start. Corkbeg has been disappointing since winning at Wexford in May but still warrants respect here as the highest rated runner in the line-up. Kellie's Dream also has a Wexford win to her name and has solid claims after running well to finish fourth on her recent return. Silverstrand is another leading contender, while market support for any of the handicap debutants would be of definite interest.
KELLIE'S DREAM is still relatively low mileage and made a pleasing return to action at Downpatrick last week. She gets the nod. Breagagh and Corkbeg also make the shortlist.
Quite open but perhaps KELLIE'S DREAM can come on enough from a promising comeback run to score for a second time over hurdles

0.91/1(+17%) | (1) Sundial 0.91/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 14f on flat. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 21 in juvenile hurdle (18/1) at Cheltenham (16.4f, soft) 129 days ago. Well in the mix. Fine 3l fourth of 21 in Fred Winter at Cheltenham; has been gelded since; should win. |

2nd (7) (6/1 +76%) Mr Dibbs |

3rd (12) (2.25/1 +25%) Ta Na La |
2.25/1(+25%) | (12) Ta Na La 2.25/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Promising type. Tongue strap on for 1st time, second of 14 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16.6f, good, 9/2) 49 days ago. Should progress. Big shout. Solid efforts in maidens that have worked out well and gets a lot of weight from Sundial. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
With a mark of 118, SUNDIAL is the standout name. A son of Galileo and successful on the level when trained by Aidan O'Brien, he has yet to make the breakthrough in five starts over flights. A close-up fourth in the Boodles at the Cheltenham Festival in March, he takes a significant drop-in class now and is difficult to oppose. Padraig Roche trains the selection for JP McManus and the pair are also represented by newcomer Can't Buy Time. Out of a sister to 2016 Irish National winner Rogue Angel, the Getaway bay was purchased for E60,000 as a three-year-old. Placed six times from 17 career starts, Ta Na La is the biggest danger to Sundial, given significant weight differential. Mr Globalist, Mr Dibbs and Sidiriya are likely to be fighting it out for minor honours.
TA NA LA has made a promising start over hurdles and is fancied to build on her Tramore second and go one better at the chief expense of Fred Winter-fourth Sundial who rates much the biggest threat. Mr Globalist appeals as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.
In receipt of 20lb, Ta Na La, can make a race of it with SUNDIAL but the Fred Winter fourth should be able to deal with her

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NATURAL LOOK was a convincing winner at Cork a week ago and should be able to follow up with Ray Barron claiming a valuable 7lb. A model of consistency last season, the Ocovango seven-year-old disappointed on her first two starts this term, before comfortably dismissing 14-rivals at Cork. Upped 10lb for that success, she might still be ahead of the handicapper on a career high mark of 110. Thornleigh Frank was also successful last week, landing a gamble on his handicap debut at Downpatrick. An 11lb hike from the handicapper duly followed and it'll be interesting to see how he copes with that rise. Goodie Girl is another last time out winner in the line-up and she is sure to have plenty of supporters after her surprise Downpatrick win. Twice-raced since winning at Roscommon in July of 2021, Spoiled Rotten warrants respect, while other leading contenders here are Betty Dutton, Hot As Pepper and Bold Emperor, with the latter rated 12lb higher over fences.
THORNLEIGH FRANK was so impressive at Downpatrick last week that even an 11 lb rise may not stop him. Natural Look also had plenty in hand when winning on his latest start and is second choice ahead of Dermot McLoughlin's Goodie Girl.
Two shrewd yards clash with easy last-time-out winners and NATURAL LOOK is given preference over the less-exposed Thornleigh Frank

First run for yard after leaving Paul Traynor. Beaten a long way on chasing debut at Tramore in December when last seen for Paul Traynor. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CHOICE OF WORDS gets the nod over Jungle Prose and Mousey Brown. The selection went down by just half a length here in May and was fancied by some shrewd judges for the Midlands National last week. As second reserve, she ultimately didn't get a run. Given a mark of 121, the eight-year-old should prove hard to beat, representing Punchestown Gold Cup winning connections. Jungle Prose was a revelation over flights late last year, rattling off four wins in a row. Second on her penultimate outing at Wexford, she makes her debut over fences now and should be able to make her presence felt. Mousey Brown has won her last two at Wexford and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to complete the hat-trick. Successful in a point-to-point on debut, the Califet six-year-old is clearly a talented individual. The remaining four contenders look up against it, with Will You Win the best of them.
CHOICE OF WORDS pulled clear of the rest when collared in the dying strides over this C&D when last seen in May and she is taken to go one better this time. Jungle Prose ran no sort of a race in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter recently but she will be a serious threat if she puts her best foot forward now switched to fences. Best of the rest is Mousey Brown, who appears to be going the right way judged on her victories over hurdles the last twice and she was a point winner earlier this year.
Little strength in depth here with JUNGLE PROSE expected to make a winning chasing debut at the expense of Choice Of Words

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A case can be made for all nine runners, with TOP LINE TOMMY the suggestion. He belatedly made the breakthrough over fences at Tramore early last month, coming home 16 lengths clear of subsequent dual Wexford winner Clairmc. Not suited by the drop in trip to two miles on his next start at Clonmel, he since finished fifth over flights at Bellewstown. Back over the larger obstacles now and with this trip likely to suit, he should give a good account of himself. Recent course-and-distance winner Pakens Rock is given second preference. The 10-year-old has seven wins to his name and has been consistent in recent starts. Handicap debutants Changing The Rules and Hamundarson are of definite interest, with the former bidding to follow up on a Wexford win. The Walk In The Park bay will have to defy top-weight under Mark Walsh and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to do so. Paul Flynn has his horses in fine form of late and Golden Sandbanks is another leading hope.
There should be more to come from CHANGING THE RULES, who found improvement when scoring at Wexford last month and is still unexposed over fences. He can follow up. Pakens Rock and Where's Bunny can also make their presence felt.
The veteran WRONG DIRECTION ran a blinder for his new yard at Wexford and is taken to make the most of a handy weight

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Returned at 200/1, DAICHEADACUIG ran a huge race to finish third over the course and distance last month, and a reproduction of that effort would see him hard to beat. Not the most consistent, the Arcadio eight-year-old took minor honours behind Uncle Phil and was just two and three-parts of a length behind subsequent Cork victor Winter Fog. I A Connect was sixth and he also gave the form a boost, winning on his next start at Tipperary. Like the selection, Caridadi has a course win to his name and the 12-year-old is given second preference. A fast-finishing third on his most recent outing at Wexford in March, he should be able to make his presence felt in a contest of this quality. Royal Juniper is a point-to-point winner and would be of definite interest if market support arrives. A case can be made for many others in this weak affair, with Fly De Megaudais, Seskin Flyer and Tick Along all sure to have their supporters.
This looks wide open and it could be worth siding with DAICHEADACUIG, who exceeded market expectations when third in a maiden chase here last month and he returns to handicap company on a potentially workable mark. Tick Along got the better of the re-opposing Hockworthy Flyer at Downpatrick in May and is next on the list ahead of Caridadi, who was a good third off this mark when last seen at Wexford during the spring. Lesssaidthebetter is also worth a second look.
Keith Donoghue's presence for the first time on TICK ALONG is a big plus and maybe he can guide her to a first win over fences

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.
