1st (2) (13/8 +35%) Galileo Dame |
13/8(+35%) | (2) Galileo Dame 13/8, Promising individual. Second of 11 in maiden at Gowran (8.3f, heavy, 8/1) on debut, clear of rest. Off 176 days. Open to progress and makes plenty of appeal. Gowran second last autumn shaped as though she would relish this longer trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (5/4 +9%) Rubies Are Red |
5/4(+9%) | (7) Rubies Are Red 5/4, Once-raced filly. 10/1, third of 11 in maiden at Galway (8.3f, heavy) on debut, best work finish. Off 163 days. Up in trip. Plenty of potential and could open her account at the second attempt. Plenty of debut promise on heavy last autumn; bred to relish mid-distances. |

3rd (1) (9/2 +31%) Flight Of Fancy |
9/2(+31%) | (1) Flight Of Fancy 9/2, Once-raced filly. Fifth of 8 in maiden at Cork (8f, soft, 8/1) on debut, not knocked about. Off 6 months. Up in trip. Open to improvement and worth considering for all that he looks the stable's second string. Patent greeness on sole 2yo start; bred to much better at three over middle-distances. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (12/1 +14%) Ob La Di |
12/1(+14%) | (4) Ob La Di 12/1, €210,000 yearling, Blue Point filly. First foal: dam, useful French 1¼m/11f winner, half-sister to smart 9f-1½m winner Djukon out of smart winner up to 11f (2-y-o 1m winner) Djumama, herself Champion 2-y-o Old Filly in Germany. Blue Point filly for whom trip could prove plenty far enough on debut in such conditions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (22/1 -57%) Purple Sky |
22/1(-57%) | (6) Purple Sky 22/1, Awtaad filly. Dam, unraced, closely related to useful 1¼m winner (stays 1¾m) Young Ireland out of half-sister to Irish Derby/Coronation Stakes winner Soldier of Fortune. Awtaad filly, from family of Irish Derby winner Soldier Of Fortune; market best guide. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (200/1 -33%) Our Lil |
200/1(-33%) | (5) Our Lil 200/1, Once-raced filly. 33/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good) on debut, very slowly away. Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving John Quinn. Hooded for 1st time. Attitude issues on sole 2yo start in Britain; hooded now and can only be watched. |

7th (3) (66/1 -65%) Luxurious Princess |
66/1(-65%) | (3) Luxurious Princess 66/1, €5,000 yearling, Invincible Army filly. Half-sister to 1¼m winner Winter Snowdrop and winner up to 2m Adahlen. Yard have made good start to the season, market likely informative on debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Found's sister RUBIES ARE RED showed promise last October and is proven on heavy ground. Regally bred, she finished behind previously-raced fillies at Galway, when meeting minor traffic, and is open to vast improvement. That Galway runner-up (Kisiyra) had finished well behind Galileo Dame when the pair made their respective debuts at Gowran last October. Galileo Dame, a 125,000-euro breeze-up purchase, was beaten by a now 103-rated winner in that Gowran race and while open to improvement, might lack high-class ability. Flight Or Fancy ran well at Cork (the runner-up and fourth won subsequently) and while she has an excellent pedigree, is Ballydoyle's second string. Tranquillitatis is a half-sister to her trainer's smart pair Piz Badile and Yosemite Valley, while Purple Sky is out of an unraced dam who is related to useful winners. Luxurious Princess is out of a half-sister to French/Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Bachir and cost just 5,000 euros as a yearling, while Ob La Di is the first foal from a Listed-placed dam.
RUBIES ARE RED and Galileo Dame both shaped well first time out and are likely improvers, so they're likely to dominate this, with the first named marginally preferred. Flight of Fancy, a stablemate of the selection, also has some potential.
Ballydoyle won this last year with subsequent Irish Oaks winner Savethelastdance and could have the answer with RUBIES ARE RED

1st (10) (7/2 +22%) The Equator |
7/2(+22%) | (10) The Equator 7/2, Once-raced colt. Fourth of 9 in maiden (2/1) at this course (8f, good to soft) on debut, not clear run. Off 8 months. Up in trip. Should have more to offer. Beaten favourite on sole 2yo start here last summer on soft; appears stable second-choice. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (5/6 +34%) Ortelius |
5/6(+34%) | (8) Ortelius 5/6, Twice-raced colt. 7/4, third of 17 in maiden at Newmarket (8f, good to firm), worst of draw. Off 6 months. Up in trip. The form choice. Best 2yo form on offer here although on much quicker ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (10/3 +5%) Invention |
10/3(+5%) | (6) Invention 10/3, Promising individual. Second of 15 in maiden (3/1) at this course (8f, heavy). Off 172 days. Up in trip. Can do better. Player. Clear second here in October, should appreciate this longer trip; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (16/1 +0%) Mick Collins |
16/1(+0%) | (7) Mick Collins 16/1, €16,000 yearling, Inns of Court gelding. Dam twice-raced half-sister to smart winner up to 9f Grafelli out of useful 1¼m winner Spark Sept. Inns Of Court gelding cost 16,000Euros as a yearling; newcomer probably best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (16/1 -14%) Himalayan Heights |
16/1(-14%) | (4) Himalayan Heights 16/1, Camelot colt. Dam unraced half-sister to smart French/US winner up to 1m Shediak, third in Prix Jean-Luc Lagardere-Grand Criterium. Stable having good spell. Considered. Camelot colt for whom market probably best guide on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (28/1 -12%) Inner Success |
28/1(-12%) | (5) Inner Success 28/1, Success Days gelding. Half-brother to useful 7.4f winner Spring Feeling. Dam 1m winner. Another for whom market likely best guide on debut (sire liked it testing). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (150/1 +0%) Granite Bay |
150/1(+0%) | (3) Granite Bay 150/1, Once-raced gelding. 50/1, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Naas (8f, soft) on debut, very slowly away. Off 179 days. Up in trip. Never sighted after slow start on sole 2yo start at Naas in October; may need more time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (200/1 -33%) Galway Man |
200/1(-33%) | (2) Galway Man 200/1, Once-raced colt. 50/1, tenth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (8f) on debut 54 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Up in trip. Never sighted on Dundalk debut in February, seems best watched for now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (33/1 -136%) Benvoy |
33/1(-136%) | (1) Benvoy 33/1, Twice-raced gelding. 11/2, eighth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (8f). Off 166 days. Up in trip. Debut promise not backed up at Dundalk; gelded since and heavy ground may not suit. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ORTELIUS meets far more testing ground than what he raced on as a juvenile and might have enough ability to cope. Slowly away when running really well on debut (the third, fourth and fifth each won subsequently), he was well held on good to firm ground at Newmarket subsequently but nonetheless showed form and should progress. The Equator was a beaten favourite when running well on debut and while stablemate Chief Little Rock finished second and is now rated 107, he undoubtedly flattered the form when finishing fast. Invention, a brother to an Irish Oaks runner-up, has testing-ground form but is vulnerable to smart types. Benvoy showed promise on debut and has been gelded since his less encouraging Dundalk run. It is notable Colin Keane is allowed off Himalayan Heights to ride Mick Collins, which is out of half-sister to a Group 2 winner while Inner Success is his stallion's first runner and whose winning dam has already produced a Group-placed performer. Slaneyside is a half-brother to six-time winner Fratas.
ORTELIUS holds the edge on form so Aidan O'Brien's colt is taken to make a winning return at the chief expense of his stablemate The Equator who also looks to have better days ahead of him. Invention and Himalayan Heights appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
Despite ground concerns ORTELIUS looks the one to beat, although stablemate The Equator and Invention look likely dangers

1st (7) (10/3 +26%) Mr Rango |
10/3(+26%) | (7) Mr Rango 10/3, First run since leaving Ross O'Sullivan when respectable third of 16 in handicap (4/1) at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Expected to be bang there. Creditable seasonal return over inadequate trip; potential big player back at optimum trip. |

2nd (8) (3/1 +25%) Global Energy |
3/1(+25%) | (8) Global Energy 3/1, C&D winner. Career best when winning 23-runner handicap (10/1) at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 23 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes plenty of appeal in follow-up bid. Hat-trick seeker loves testing conditions; greatly respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (5/1 +38%) Duke Of Leggagh |
5/1(+38%) | (10) Duke Of Leggagh 5/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, below form seventh of 16 in handicap at Naas (7f, heavy, 4/1) 17 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Not one to write off. Trip/ground to suit and can be expected to come on for recent comeback run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (17/2 -13%) Givemehoperosa |
17/2(-13%) | (11) Givemehoperosa 17/2, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 12-runner maiden (6/1) at this course (9f, heavy), slowly away. Off 171 days. Makes handicap debut. Claims if she's tuned up for this return. Maiden winner here in testing conditions when last seen; fair opening mark and unexposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/1 +31%) Walhaan |
11/1(+31%) | (3) Walhaan 11/1, Latest win at Dundalk in March. Creditable sixth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 12 days ago. Not discounted. Recent form on AW but heavy-ground winner in France; fitness assured. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (7/1 +65%) Broad Daylight |
7/1(+65%) | (13) Broad Daylight 7/1, 18/1, below form sixth of 20 in handicap at this course (8f, heavy) 3 days ago. Up in trip. Others more persuasive. Both runs this term leave him with plenty to find. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (150/1 -355%) Queenie St Clair |
150/1(-355%) | (4) Queenie St Clair 150/1, Winner at Naas in October. First run since leaving Noel Meade when last of 16 in handicap (66/1) at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Hooded for 1st time. Win for Noel Meade came at 7f; big step up in trip here with hood tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (66/1 -164%) The Names Jock |
66/1(-164%) | (5) The Names Jock 66/1, 11/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, sixth of 9 in handicap at Clonmel (16.4f, good to firm). Off 19 months. Significantly down in trip. First run for yard after leaving John E. Kiely. C&D winner on similar ground but absent since September and may need this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (33/1 -65%) Laelaps |
33/1(-65%) | (2) Laelaps 33/1, Unreliable sort. 13/2, below form sixth of 14 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Hood back on, tongue strap on 1st time.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (40/1 -100%) Molly's Gamble |
40/1(-100%) | (9) Molly's Gamble 40/1, Fell in novice hurdle (12/1) at Thurles (16.5f, good to soft) 132 days ago. Off 132 days. First run for yard after leaving Paul O'Flynn. Fair on the Flat. Must improve. Dual Killarney winner in 2022 for former yard; opposable on flat return for new trainer. |

11th (1) (11/2 +8%) Charming Star |
11/2(+8%) | (1) Charming Star 11/2, Thrice-raced winner on Flat. Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Won 14-runner juvenile hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy, 5/6) 39 days ago. Visor on 1st time.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CHARMING STAR won over hurdles recently and is proven on heavy ground. Out of a Group 2 winner and by Sea The Stars, he can race lazily and runs in a first-time visor but being a four-year-old, can continue to progress. Global Energy also revels on heavy and is 7lb higher than when winning the mini-Lincoln last month. He has winning form at this distance and has obvious claims, but is more exposed than the selection. Race-fit Walhaan's Irish Flat form is on a sound surface, but he won on heavy in France in 2018 and has hurdling form on testing ground, so should compete. Both Mr Rango's wins have been at this distance and he ran well on his recent reappearance, with Duke Of Leggagh finishing seventh. Givemehoperosa finished behind Queenie St Clair last October before winning a heavy-ground C&D maiden, but she faces a tougher task on her reappearance.
MR RANGO is on a fair mark and shaped as if he'd strip fitter for his stable debut when third at Naas last time. Back up in trip, he's fancied to capitalise on a handy mark, with Global Energy regarded as the chief threat. Givemehoperose should also give a good account.
Quite highly tried in his younger days GLOBAL ENERGY seems to have found his level and can complete the hat-trick

1st (6) (10/1 +38%) Norwalk Havoc |
10/1(+38%) | (6) Norwalk Havoc 10/1, Once-raced gelding. 14/1, last of 6 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good) on debut. Off 10 months. Significantly up in trip. Likely to improve. Absent since finishing last of six on debut at the Curragh last May, has been gelded. |

2nd (2) (4/6 +55%) Gallantly |
4/6(+55%) | (2) Gallantly 4/6, Twice-raced colt. 5/4, second of 12 in maiden at Naas (8f, soft), clear of rest. Off 179 days. Should improve. Improved from debut at Naas when second at the same venue last October, leading chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (7/4 -17%) Naturally Nimble |
7/4(-17%) | (5) Naturally Nimble 7/4, Promising individual. Second of 5 in maiden (3/1) at Galway (8.6f, good to soft) on debut, running on. Off 7 months. Big shout. Promising second behind a subsequent Group 3 winner on soft ground at Galway last autumn. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (40/1 +20%) Kool One |
40/1(+20%) | (3) Kool One 40/1, €1,000 yearling, Kool Kompany gelding. Dam unraced. Second foal dam unraced, half-sister to several winners, out of Listed-placed 5f winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (50/1 -52%) Your Out Of Line |
50/1(-52%) | (7) Your Out Of Line 50/1, Alhebayeb gelding. Dam, 1m winner, sister to 6f-8.3f winner Sir Roderic and 9f-1½m winner Dew Line (both useful). Dam minor 1m handicap winner on heavy ground, sister to eight-time winner Sir Roderic. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (150/1 +25%) Anyothername |
150/1(+25%) | (1) Anyothername 150/1, Lightly-raced gelding. Eleventh of 15 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, heavy, 125/1) 23 days ago. Modest form at two and struggled on his reappearance at the Curragh, safe to rule out. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
GALLANTLY improved from his debut when finishing second on testing ground at Naas last October. By Frankel and out of a French 1000 Guineas winner, he holds a Dante entry and while yet to show star qualities, can put his experience to good use. Naturally Nimble himself ran well on debut last September, finishing behind a subsequent Group 3 winner. He too should handle heavy ground and while the third-placed horse at Galway is exposed, Naturally Nimble finished his race nicely, suggesting he will improve. The regally-bred Mundi is a brother to Churchill, among others, but is stable second string and is sure to benefit from his debut, with heavy ground likely to inconvenience. Norwalk Havoc was well beaten on debut last May, while Your Out Of Line is the first foal from a winning dam.
Joseph O'Brien's NATURALLY NIMBLE made a promising start when runner-up at Galway and can build on that on his seasonal return to fend of the Aidan O'Brien-trained duo Gallantly and Mundi who both pose big threats.
No match for subsequent Eyrefield Stakes winner Grosvenor Square on his debut at Galway, NATURALLY NIMBLE may master the Ballydoyle duo

1st (6) (4/9 +75%) Goldana |
4/9(+75%) | (6) Goldana 4/9, Useful mare. 6/4, respectable 1¼ lengths third of 10 to Brilliant in Park Express Stakes at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 23 days ago, losing little caste in defeat conceding chunks of weight to pair of 3-y-os. High on the shortlist for yard who landed this race 12 months ago. Capable of improving on last month's Curragh third, boasts solid overall credentials. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (11/2 -10%) Power Under Me |
11/2(-10%) | (2) Power Under Me 11/2, Smart gelding. C&D winner. 12¼ lengths twelfth of 13 to Foniska in listed race at Cork (8f, soft, 5/1) in September. Returns with yard amongst the winners so interesting if there's market confidence behind him. Has won two of his four races at this venue, fifth in this race last year, handles it soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (11/2 -65%) Lord Massusus |
11/2(-65%) | (1) Lord Massusus 11/2, Smart gelding who landed C&D Group 3 last summer. 12/1, 2¾ lengths second of 4 to Matilda Picotte in Challenge Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) in October, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Versatile as regards ground and he scored on his seasonal bow 12 months ago. Group 3 winner over C&D last August on good ground, handles soft, may not relish heavy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (16/1 +43%) Cristal Clere |
16/1(+43%) | (5) Cristal Clere 16/1, Useful gelding. C&D winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year. 25/1, fourth of 6 in minor event at Dundalk (12f) 5 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Progressive last year when form included two course wins, faces a stiff task at this level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (33/1 -83%) Big Gossey |
33/1(-83%) | (4) Big Gossey 33/1, Latest win at the Curragh (7f, heavy) in November. 20/1, tenth of 13 in handicap on return at that venue (5f, heavy) 23 days ago. That ought to have blown the cobwebs away but still needs to conclusively prove his stamina for this trip. Sprinting type, has run in ten stakes races without scoring but second on three occasions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (33/1 -83%) Zenga |
33/1(-83%) | (7) Zenga 33/1, Fairly useful mare. 6½ lengths ninth of 10 to Takeko in listed race at Bro (8f, good, 25/1), slowly away. Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Roger Varian and progress required if she's to make the breakthrough at this level. Little to show for an ambitious campaign last season, again aiming high on stable debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
GOLDANA ran well on last month's comeback and receives weight from today's principal rivals. A 2022 Listed winner when trained in Germany, she is suited by testing ground and this distance, with her reappearance run pleasing because she conceded 20lb to the two three-year-olds who defeated her. Lord Massusus has soft-ground form and progressed well last year to finish second in a Group 2 at Newmarket. He was two lengths ahead of Self Belief at Cork last September, when 4lb better off, and should confirm those placings as Self Belief's best form is over slightly further. Power Under Me disappointed in that Cork race, when reported to be post-race normal. A dual C&D winner who needs easy ground, he weakened late on in the Cork race and while he should reappear in better form, is now a six-year-old who needs his best form to win. A mile will stretch Big Gossey.
GOLDANA produced a solid comeback run when third in a Group 3 at the Curragh 23 days ago, losing little caste in defeat conceding plenty of weight to a pair of 3-y-os, and she looks to hold sound claims of coming out on top on these terms with her yard having bagged this prize 12 months ago. Lord Massusus and Power Under Me can give her most to think about.
Last season's Gladness Stakes winner GOLDANA may improve enough from last month's Curragh run to land this prize

14/1(-40%) | (3) Desert Haven 14/1, 14/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Listowel (7.1f, soft). Off 6 months. Ground versatile, begins this season on an okay mark and has run well fresh. |

17/2(+15%) | (5) Brains 17/2, Three wins from 13 runs last year. 25/1, creditable second of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (8f) 33 days ago. Enters calculations. Prolific AW winner but not sure if these testing conditions will play to his strengths. |

7th (4) (66/1 -371%) Gobi Star |
66/1(-371%) | (4) Gobi Star 66/1, Latest win at Dundalk in November. 5/6, only fourth of 7 in claimer at Dundalk (7f) 15 days ago so more is required. Solid AW form over the winter but definite ground concerns here back on turf. |

8th (2) (16/1 -14%) Orandi |
16/1(-14%) | (2) Orandi 16/1, Sixth of 16 in handicap (100/1) at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago, nearest finish. Needs to build on it. Mildly encouraging run at Naas recently but probably still a bit high in the handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (150/1 -355%) Perseids |
150/1(-355%) | (10) Perseids 150/1, First run since leaving Joseph Patrick O'Brien when eleventh of 13 in maiden (12/1) at Dundalk (12f) 54 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Back to best trip here although hasn't convinced on this type of ground; tongue tie tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (25/1 +24%) Clear Quartz |
25/1(+24%) | (6) Clear Quartz 25/1, 33/1, below form fifteenth of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 23 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Others more persuasive. Has won on heavy but needs to come on a ton from last month's Curragh seasonal return. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
MERISI DIAMOND might defy a 14lb hike for winning well at the Curragh. His five siblings have all won, including two at Group/Grade 2 level (one being a Britannia winner), and after progressing well last autumn, confirmed that promise when winning easily last month. He goes back up in trip in a first-time hood and should better his current rating. Heavy-ground specialist Racing Royalty won Listowel Festival and Curragh handicaps at this distance last year and while beaten on his last run, is better over today's trip. Clear Quartz lost his chance with a slow start at the Curragh last month and is ideally suited by conditions, while Desert Haven has fallen to a career-low mark and has heavy-ground form. Five-time French winner Orandi ran OK on reappearance following a layoff, while dual soft-ground winner Mile End debuts for new connections having been bought for 4,000gns last November. Mogwli is in form but isn't ahead of the handicapper.
MERISI DIAMOND hit the ground running in some style for Martin Brassil with an emphatic Curragh success and can make light of a 14 hike in the weights to complete a hat-trick. Brains appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of Mogwli and Racing Royalty.
It's quite likely quite likely the lightly-raced 5yo MERISI DIAMOND (nap) remains ahead of the handicapper and he gets a confident vote

1st (8) (9/1 -13%) Manhattan Dandy |
9/1(-13%) | (8) Manhattan Dandy 9/1, Latest win at Bellewstown in September. Respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Naas (7f, heavy, 16/1) 17 days ago. Not taken lightly. Showed the benefit of Dundalk return when a fair sixth over 7f at Naas, needs to find more. |

2nd (10) (33/1 +18%) Cage Rattler |
33/1(+18%) | (10) Cage Rattler 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap/cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 14 in handicap (100/1) at Dundalk (8f) 15 days ago, no room over 1f out. Weak maiden form over three different trips, only marginal improvement on handicap debut. |

3rd (4) (4/1 -14%) Daonethatgotaway |
4/1(-14%) | (4) Daonethatgotaway 4/1, 5/2, creditable third of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f) 5 days ago. Blinkers on for 1st time. Can give another good account. Good recent form at Dundalk, it remains to be seen if he is as effective on heavy ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (20/1 -25%) Sadiqaa |
20/1(-25%) | (14) Sadiqaa 20/1, Twenty seven runs since last win in 2021 and was below form at Dundalk on most recent outing. Has been struggling at Dundalk, two wins have been on good-to-firm, heavy ground a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (66/1 -32%) Captured |
66/1(-32%) | (11) Captured 66/1, 150/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f). Off 119 days. Failed to improve on moderate turf form in two runs at Dundalk in December, 7lb wrong. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (7/1 +50%) Play It Again Zaam |
7/1(+50%) | (9) Play It Again Zaam 7/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs and again ran below form when eighteenth of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, heavy) 23 days ago. Visor on for 1st time. Started last year's turf campaign with a fine effort, has slumped in the ratings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (15/2 -15%) Conversant |
15/2(-15%) | (6) Conversant 15/2, Thirteenth of 20 in handicap (10/1) at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 23 days ago. Needs to step up on recent run. Six-time winner, suited by very soft ground, Colin Keane sticks with him after Curragh run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (14/1 -17%) Coolcalmncollected |
14/1(-17%) | (7) Coolcalmncollected 14/1, 12/1, seventh of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 19 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Dual Dundalk nursery winner, struggled last year and needs to step up on recent AW form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (15) (9/1 +64%) Sunday Evening |
9/1(+64%) | (15) Sunday Evening 9/1, 40/1, last of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, heavy). Off 162 days. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Encouraging third at Gowran on penultimate start, excuse for poor Curragh display. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (18/1 -29%) Dutch Glory |
18/1(-29%) | (5) Dutch Glory 18/1, Ninth of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago, slowly away. Dual winner for Ross O'Sullivan, no show in two Dundalk starts for his current trainer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (33/1 +0%) He's Justagent |
33/1(+0%) | (2) He's Justagent 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at Naas (7f, soft). Off 21 months. First run for yard after leaving A. McIntyre. Makes handicap debut. Poor form as a juvenile, unraced during a spell with Dermot Weld, hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (12) (16/1 +52%) Laurens Company |
16/1(+52%) | (12) Laurens Company 16/1, Modest maiden. Ninth of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, soft, 16/1) on final start. Off 11 months. Sole placing as obtained at Dundalk early in her career, absent for almost a year. |

13th (13) (6/1 +50%) Lisieux |
6/1(+50%) | (13) Lisieux 6/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. 25/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f). Off 112 days. First run for yard after leaving Adrian McGuinness. Has good chance on pick of form. Won on handicap debut two seasons ago but has been on a losing run ever since, new stable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (3) (15/2 +6%) Sneddy Eddie |
15/2(+6%) | (3) Sneddy Eddie 15/2, Latest win at Bellewstown in September but wasn't in the same form at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) the following month, unable to sustain effort. Off 176 days. Gamely saw out the extended 7f on heavy ground at Bellewstown in September, fair chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (1) (33/1 -106%) Eyeshadow |
33/1(-106%) | (1) Eyeshadow 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm, 10/3). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Harry & Roger Charlton. Import form Britain, unknown quantity on this ground, plenty of weight for Irish debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (16) (25/1 +38%) Trident Star |
25/1(+38%) | (16) Trident Star 25/1, First run since leaving James McAuley when ninth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 50/1) 15 days ago. Regressive since showing some ability in nurseries, rated 40 so 7lb wrong at the weights. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The reappearing SNEDDY EDDIE likes testing ground and has winning form over similar distances. He was well beaten from 1lb higher on his latest run last October, but will handle conditions better than most. Six-time winner Conversant also has heavy-ground form, but is a nine-year-old now and has yet to win at this distance. Daonethatgotaway was gambled on when finishing second at Dundalk last month and again ran well on the all-weather recently. He is tried in first-time blinkers and while he should win from his rating, running on heavy ground for the first time is a concern. Sunday Evening finished ahead of the selection on heavy at Gowran last October. She was reported to have lost her action at the Curragh subsequently and a first-time tongue-tie is, worryingly, fitted on reappearance. Lisieux debuts for new connections and while suited by heavy, has won just once from 25 runs. Manhattan Dandy is useful on heavy ground.
DAONETHATGOTAWAY has run two good races since returning to action and appeals as the most solid option. Manhattan Dandy and Lisieux are a couple of potential threats.
A hopeful vote goes to SNEDDY EDDIE, a winner over just a bit further than this on heavy ground at Bellewstown last September

1st (11) (7/1 +42%) Saffronandblue |
7/1(+42%) | (11) Saffronandblue 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, below form sixth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, heavy). Off 177 days. Booking of Whelan a plus. Didn't seem to stay 1m1f at Gowran; remains unexposed but may just need this. |

2nd (9) (8/1 -14%) Angel On Fire |
8/1(-14%) | (9) Angel On Fire 8/1, Winner at Gowran in October. 12/1, bit below form fourth of 13 in handicap at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago, nearest finish. Step back up in trip very much a plus on that evidence and he could just be worth chancing to double his tally. Heavy ground winner not one to rule out although wide draw hardly ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (16) (8/1 +50%) So Messi |
8/1(+50%) | (16) So Messi 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat who ran best race to date when second of 14 in handicap at Killarney (1m) in July. Minor promise in trio of starts in juvenile hurdles this winter but he could yet have a little more to offer back on the level. Nothing over hurdles during the winter but don't rule out last year's Killarney second. |

4th (12) (5/1 -11%) Atbay |
5/1(-11%) | (12) Atbay 5/1, 9/4, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago. Up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time and handicapper has given him a chance. Unable to justify market plunge at Naas; blinkers now fitted and upped in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (18) (28/1 +15%) My Birthday Girl |
28/1(+15%) | (18) My Birthday Girl 28/1, Churchill filly who failed to match previous best when eighth of 16 on handicap debut at Gowran (9.5f, heavy) in October, never better than midfield. Remains early days with her at least. Reserve 2. Never counted on handicap debut in October; scope for improvement remains; reserve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (14/1 +44%) Miss Aytan |
14/1(+44%) | (8) Miss Aytan 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 66/1 and hooded for 1st time, good seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f) 26 days ago. Down in trip. Makes turf debut. Ordinary AW form, hard to be confident in now switched to turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (11/1 -10%) Ranko Express |
11/1(-10%) | (4) Ranko Express 11/1, Much improved when making a winning handicap debut at Gowran (9.5f, soft) last May but not see since finishing midfield in big-field handicap back at that venue the following month. Remains less exposed than most at least so interesting if market vibes are positive. Soft-ground Gowran winner last year long absent but could still have more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (13) (40/1 -60%) Atlas |
40/1(-60%) | (13) Atlas 40/1, Course winner. Thirty eight runs since last win in 2020. Respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 50/1) 61 days ago. Long time since his last win (2020) and wins all on better ground; hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (11/1 +21%) Velvet And Vine |
11/1(+21%) | (2) Velvet And Vine 11/1, 4/1, first run since leaving G. M. Lyons when creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f). Off 161 days. Back down in trip. Didn't look to stay 1m4f on yard debut at Dundalk in November; ground concerns. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (4/1 +71%) Lisamaria |
4/1(+71%) | (10) Lisamaria 4/1, 250/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.5f, soft) 146 days ago. Remains a maiden in this sphere but plenty of creditable in-the-frame efforts to her name last term and booking of Colin Keane a plus on return. Poor form hurdling when last seen but eyecatching jockey booking here for flat return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (22/1 -57%) Roman Palace |
22/1(-57%) | (7) Roman Palace 22/1, Winner at Dundalk in January. 8/1, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap back at that venue (8f) 15 days ago, weakening 1f out. Each-way claims back on turf. Not much luck in running at Dundalk last month, could still have more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (13/2 -8%) St Cianans Fire |
13/2(-8%) | (3) St Cianans Fire 13/2, 2/1, creditable second of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f) 56 days ago. Back down in trip and worth a second look if arriving here in same groove. In good form on AW this winter but ground remains a concern here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (14) (80/1 -471%) Man Is King |
80/1(-471%) | (14) Man Is King 80/1, Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. 33/1 and hooded for 1st time, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Naas (7f, heavy) 17 days ago, not knocked about. Up in trip. Ran better than results infers at Naas, still hard to see him playing a major role. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (17) (18/1 +28%) Captain John Barry |
18/1(+28%) | (17) Captain John Barry 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f). Off 7 months. Easy to look elsewhere. Reserve 1. Nothing as yet for current yard, gelded since last seen in August; reserve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (15) (80/1 -100%) Pale Ale |
80/1(-100%) | (15) Pale Ale 80/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who has been absent since finishing last of 18 in a C&D handicap during summer of 2022. Market should prove a useful guide on this belated return. Absent since last of 18 at Leopardstown in August 2022; can only be watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
All of ANGEL ON FIRE's best form is on heavy ground, he is race-fit and ran well recently. He has won just once from 16 runs and finished just a short head ahead of maiden Atbay at Naas, but he is slightly better over this distance. Pascalia won on the all-weather in February and is capable of a little more improvement in a first-time tongue-tie and running on heavy ground for the first time. Three-time winner St Cianans Fire is in form, but has yet to run on ground this testing. So Messi was beaten long distances over hurdles recently, but is at least race-fit and had form at this level last year, albeit on better ground. Sapristi debuts for new connections, with heavy ground a concern, while conditions might also inconvenience Velvet And Vine, who drops in distance.
ANGEL ON FIRE stepped up on his reappearance run and very much shaped like this step back up in trip would be very much in his favour when fourth at Naas 17 days ago. Interesting from this sort of mark, he shades the vote to come out on top. Atbay, who was one place behind the selection latest, is a threat with blinkers enlisted for the first time. St Cianans Fire and the returning So Messi are others to consider.
Few appeal and a chance is taken on the still relatively unexposed RANKO EXPRESS, a winner on soft
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
