13:05 Leopardstown Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 0.8/1 (11) ETERNAL SILENCE 2nd: 8/1 (7) SHARLOUK 3rd: 4.5/1 (8) SUBZERO

The 102-rated ETERNAL SILENCE sets a high standard here and should make a winning return. The War Front filly was highly tried last season after her initial outing in a maiden, finishing third in Group 3 company at the Curragh before ending her campaign with an excellent effort to fill the same place in the Moyglare Stud Stakes behind Tahiyra and Meditate. That Group 1 placed form sets her apart now back in maiden company. The Ballydoyle colt Subzero could be the one to give her most to do. The son of Galileo shaped with promise when fourth in a Gowran maiden on his sole start last August and that form has worked out well since. Ger Lyons runs three in this and Colin Keane sides with the newcomer Many Tears. Money for the Showcasing filly would be interesting.

ETERNAL SILENCE acquitted herself really well in Group 1 company on her final start last term and should prove hard to beat in the opener. Subzero and Sharlouk rate the principal dangers.

This is all about the Moyglare third ETERNAL SILENCE, with whom Jessica Harrington is targeting the Irish 1,000 Guineas.

13:40 Leopardstown Maiden 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Based on the summary, the horses that are most likely to finish in the top 3 are: 1st: 22/1 (2) GOLDEN TEMPLE - has performed well against Group-placed horses and is lightly raced. 2nd: 1.38/1 (10) AZAZAT - has set the standard in initial efforts and expected to do better. 3rd: 6.5/1 (4) QUEENSTOWN - has shown improvement in a recent race and has blinkers on for the first time.

AZAZAT was beaten at a short price on her return here last month and may be able to step forward and open her account now. The Camelot filly had been a promising second on her sole start last year and went to post even-money on her comeback run. She had to settle for third behind front-runner Savethelastdance then but it looked a strong maiden and the runner-up Boogie Woogie has franked the form since. Aidan O'Brien saddles two in this and Queenstown looks the pick of them. He was green when turned over at a short price on his debut at Navan in a three-runner contest and should improve from that experience. His stablemate Milwaukee showed promise when fourth on his sole outing last term and the Justify colt is another potential improver.

Likely to come on for her reappearance spin here last month, AZAZAT looks the way to go. She is a half-sister to a winner over this trip, the step up to which promises to help unlock improvement, and she is evidently held in high regard (holds fancy entries). The Aidan O'Brien yard has farmed this maiden in recent years and the Ballydoyle representatives this time round, Milwaukee and Queenstown, rate the main dangers (in that order of preference).

This might not be that strong a maiden and AZAZAT - who has Group 1 entries - must have every chance of getting off the mark.

14:15 Leopardstown Group 3 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 3/1 (1) AMERICAN SONJA 2nd: 7/1 (9) TARAWA 3rd: 4.5/1 (10) THORNBROOK or 4/1 (11) ZARINSK

AMERICAN SONJA was good on her return at Gowran Park and looks up to making a mark at this level. She beat older horses in fine style then, in handicap company, pulling away on the run to the line to post a comprehensive success. Off her new mark of 100 she's fully entitled to mix it in this company now and there looks potential for further improvement going another furlong. Her stablemate Thornbrook is one of two in the race with an official mark of 104. She was well held in the Moyglare when last seen in September but had run a big race to finish third to Meditate at the Curragh previously in Group 2 company and would be a big player on that form. Zarinsk also has a rating of 104 and has already had a good run in stakes company this season, finishing third in the 1,000 Guineas Trial here last month. She is another for the shortlist.

Joseph O'Brien holds a strong hand here, with his representatives AMERICAN SONJA and Thornbrook both making plenty of appeal. The latter brings solid Group form to the table and is not passed over lightly but American Sonja impressed when landing a 7f Gowran handicap on her reappearance last month and she can be expected to take this step up in class/trip in her stride. The promising Tarawa is third choice ahead of Zarinsk.

The vote goes to the 104-rated THORNBROOK, Group 2-placed behind the talented Meditate before running in the Moyglare

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 2.75/1 (3) NEW ENERGY 2nd: 3.33/1 (1) GOLDANA 3rd: 4/1 (6) WEXFORD NATIVE

Fourth and second in the Irish 2000 Guineas last year, WEXFORD NATIVE is taken to even things up with New Energy. The pair clashed three-times in 2022 with the score currently 2-1 in favour of the Sheila Lavery-trained latter. The selection rounded off his three-year-old campaign with a Listed win at the Curragh in June and the hope is that he can progress even further at four. New Energy is the highest rated runner in the line-up on a mark of 113. He ran some excellent races in defeat last term and has the form to take this Group 3 prize. A German import, Goldana won nicely on her debut for Joseph O'Brien at the Curragh last month and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to follow-up. The only three-year-old in the line-up, You Send Me is an interesting contender. Getting significant weight allowances, she might be able to make an impact. Villanova Queen and Real Appeal, a three-time course winner, are others that warrant respect.

NEW ENERGY only has a maiden success to his name but he produced several good efforts in Group company last season, not least when third in the Irish 2000 Guineas and a clear second to the classy Kinross at the Doncaster St Leger meeting. The 4-y-o is taken to deservedly get his head in front here. Goldana did the job well when making a winning debut for this yard at the Curragh and she is feared most ahead of Wexford Native. The unexposed You Send Me is one to follow but this is a big ask.

Preference is for last year's Irish 2,000 Guineas runner-up NEW ENERGY who can uphold that form with fourth-placed Wexford Native

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 2.75/1 (8) UP AND UNDER 2nd: 1.75/1 (5) PROUD AND REGAL 3rd: 9/1 (2) LONDONER

UP AND UNDER might be able to take this, despite being the only maiden in the line-up. He had a far from clear passage in the Ballysax over the course and distance early last month, ultimately going down by just half-a-length. Second in the National Stakes at the Curragh in September and the highest rated runner in the line-up, Proud And Regal is likely to go off favourite. It might be worth taking him on though, as some juvenile form from last term hasn't worked out as well as expected so far this campaign. Bidding to win this race for the fifth year in-a-row, Aidan O'Brien saddles three of the eight declared and they all warrant respect, with Londoner perhaps the pick of them. Sprewell showed a nice turn of foot to win on his return to action at Naas in March and it'll be interesting to see how he copes with this step-up in class. Goldstatewarrior done well to win on debut at Gowran and is another sure to have his supporters.

UP AND UNDER pulled nicely clear of the rest when touched off by White Birch in the C&D Ballysax Stakes last month and, with the promise of more to come from this well-bred and unexposed colt, he is taken to go one better this time. Proud And Regal did nothing wrong during his 2-y-o campaign and will offer stern resistance if ready to roll on this seasonal reappearance. The Aidan O'Brien-trained duo Londoner and Tower of London should both be in the mix, while Sprewell is also accorded respect.

A Group 1 winning son of Galileo, PROUD AND REGAL (nap) meets lower-rated rivals on level terms and should be hard to beat

16:00 Leopardstown Maiden 10f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 3/1 (12) WARM HEART 2nd: 14/1 (4) FEACH AMACH 3rd: 25/1 (5) FIVER FRIDAY

With eight newcomers in the line-up and some fine pedigrees on show, a case can be made for many of these. SHAMIDA has one run to her name and might be able to put her experience to good use. She finished well to take third on debut here in October and the step-up in trip to 1m2f should suit. Related to plenty of winners, she holds some big race entries. The Aidan O'Brien-trained Warm Heart was second on her return to action early last month and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go a place better now. O'Brien also saddles Smart Cookie who is a half-sister to dual Listed winner Joie De Soir. La Petite Sissi, a half-sister to Group 1 winner La Petite Coco, and Kitty McFee, out of Listed winner Titi Makfi, are other interesting debutants set to take part.

Aidan O'Brien's WARM HEART seems sure to build on her promising reappearance second now stepped up in trip and she can get off the mark before tackling better company. Dermot Weld's returning Shamida has the form to play a part while newcomers Kermiya, New Phenomenon and Fairytale Prince need considering too, especially if the market vibes are positive.

Preference is for SHAMIDA who ran such a promising debut race back in the autumn and, unlike most of these, she has Group-race entries.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 6/1 (19) PURPLE GOWN 2nd: 7.5/1 (11) TIMOURID 3rd: 18/1 (4) KINGSWEAR

GILADAH shaped well enough on her seasonal debut at Cork to suggest she can now record a third career success at this venue. Both owned and trained by Dermot Weld, the four-year-old was a dual winner over a furlong shorter here twice last year and judging by her strong finish at Cork, the daughter of Muhaarar should appreciate the extra yardage. Timourid, who was a place ahead of the Weld filly last time, should again be involved. Trainer Paul Flynn has his string in rude health at present and this gelding has been highly consistent. Allowing for his riders claim, Timourid actually meets Giladah on slightly better terms. Laughifuwant kept on nicely when fifth at Limerick last time but does have to prove his stamina for this longer distance.

WILD DOLLAR did really well to finish third from a poor position on his return to the Flat over C&D a month ago and, from a lenient mark, he makes most appeal. Purple Gown is an obvious threat having improved to score at this course last time and Timourid also warrants consideration.

It may be worth taking a chance with LAUGHIFUWANT who has dropped a long way in the ratings since enjoying a productive 2020 campaign

1st - 6/1 (2) AUTOCRAT 2nd - 4.5/1 (6) DUBAWI SPECTRE 3rd - 10/1 (3) TEUTATES

Irish Derby entrant PICTURE OF A CITY should strip fitter now having been entitled to need his reappearance at Limerick. On that occasion, the Andy Oliver-trained colt kept on late having hit a flat spot. It will be a surprise if this son of Cityscape isn't capable of much better than a rating of 71. Sixpack is bred to appreciate a stamina test so the Johnny Murtagh trained gelding has to be a real threat on his handicap debut. On the bare form of his three maiden runs he doesn't look badly treated on his initial foray into handicaps. Teutates didn't look the most straightforward on his handicap debut at this track last time but first-time cheekpieces may help. He also drops into a lower grade now so has to be respected.

Johnny Murtagh has his team in good form so perhaps SIXPACK can strike on handicap debut after catching the eye a bit last time. Dubawi Spectre's last 2 efforts show he can be very competitive from his mark, while Picture Of A City is a possible improver for the Andrew Oliver team now making a quick switch to handicaps.

This looks very open. LASTING PEACE has progressed in maidens and this longer trip heightens interest on his handicap debut.

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.

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.
