16:40 Leopardstown Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The market should prove very informative, with no less than 14 debutants in the line-up. Carter Hall and Valiant Force are the only two with form and the latter is sure to have plenty of supporters after finishing second on debut. He has a wide draw to overcome here though and may have to settle for minor honours. Jessica Harrington, Aidan O'Brien and Johnny Murtagh are all double handed, with preference for O'Brien's GASPARE GABRIELLI. Closely related to High Chaparral, he is a half-brother to dual Group 1 winner Fancy Blue. The master of Ballydoyle also saddles Latin, who is out of an Aga Khan mare and has a nice draw in two. Mariner is owned by the Coolmore conglomerate and is from the family of Epsom Derby winner Pour Moi but appears the Murtagh second-string on jockey bookings. Paddy Twomey is represented by Deepone who makes little appeal on breeding, but still warrants respect.

VALIANT FORCE ran to a high level for a newcomer when runner-up in a listed event at the Curragh and could put that experience to good use up against mostly newcomers. The market should reveal who the main dangers are, with Aidan O'Brien saddling 3, namely Gaspare Gabrielli, Latin and Master of The Hunt.

Who knows what he's up against with so many well-bred newcomers in opposition but VALIANT FORCE ran to a high level on his debut.

17:10 Leopardstown Maiden 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FIRM HANDSHAKE and Bella Blue Eyes stand out here, with preference for the Willie McCreery-trained former. He didn't get a clear run early in the straight on debut at Cork but came home strongly in the closing stages to finish a never nearer third. Bella Blue Eyes also ran a fine race on debut at Tipperary in August, filling the runner-up spot behind Library. The Paddy Twomey-trained bay has a wide draw to overcome here but appears the choice of Billy Lee, who of course rides for both McCreery and Twomey. Joseph O'Brien is represented by Guided and newcomer Morello Di Vento, with the latter, who is owned by Real Madrid and Spanish international Alvaro Odriozola, a half-brother to Unconquerable, a smart juvenile in 2021. Second and third at Dundalk last month, City Exile and Banana Three are leading contenders, while Passionate and Winston Spencer are others to keep on side.

BELLA BLUE EYES showed plenty to work on when runner-up at Tipperary in August so could be the answer. Banana Three and Firm Handshake also arrive on the back of promising debuts so also need considering.

There was plenty to like about BANANA THREE's debut when doing well to finish 3rd and he can reverse form with City Exile

17:45 Leopardstown Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A case can be made for many in this wide-open affair, with LAUROLINE given the chance to redeem herself. Placed three-times from four starts at Dundalk, the Johnny Murtagh-trained four-year-old disappointed on her turf debut here in April, finishing a well-beaten fifth of six. The testing conditions on that occasion clearly didn't suit the Lope De Vega-bay and on a sounder surface now, a much-improved performance can be expected, with promising apprentice Yudish Geerdharry claiming a valuable 7lb. Dreaming Princess is an interesting contender for Natalia Lupini, her first runner for powerful owners AMO Racing Limited. A winner at Southwell on her penultimate start, she might be able to make an impact here with Wayne Lordan booked to ride. Chavajod (first time cheekpieces) warrants respect on debut for the shrewd Denis Coakley, while handicap debutants Snowhaven and Riverina Charm are others of note.

MISS ABBY JOOLS came good at just the second time of asking for new trainer Charles Byrnes at Dundalk in March and that form has been boosted so a 3 lb nudge may not prevent her following up. Colin Keane's mount Yokkell was in good nick when last seen in the autumn and should play a part if ready to roll after a break. Morning Approach could leave her reappearance behind and also makes the shortlist.

Heavy ground didn't suit LAUROLINE last time out but she had previously looked promising on AW and may do better on a sounder surface

18:20 Leopardstown Handicap 10f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

APPRENTICE made the breakthrough at Tipperary last month and might be able to follow-up, with Alan Persse again taking a valuable 7lb off. She was value for more than the winning margin of a head at the Limerick Junction venue and she is likely to be suited by the drying ground here and slight increase in trip. Timeless Piece finished behind the selection at Tipperary but was since successful at Gowran and off a mark of 72 she should be able to make her presence felt. A case can be made for many others. Hazy Mehmory is the highest-rated runner in the line-up, returning to action for the first time since September. She was disappointingly beaten in a three-runner affair at Bellewstown on her most recent start, but back against her own sex now and stepping into handicap company for the first time, she can be expected to go close. Fellow handicap debutants Alazne and Nostringsattached are sure to have their supporters, while course and distance winner Signora Bellissima is another for the shortlist.

Lots with chances so at the likely odds it is worth siding with ALMA LIBRE to take a big step forward from her reappearance ninth after an absence and capitalise on a good mark. Nostringsattached is feared most with better to come now going into handicaps, although Gowran scorer Timeless Piece and other handicap debutantes Alazne and Fleadhfest can also have a say in a very open-looking contest.

NOSTRINGSATTACHED looks well treated on h'cap debut and she can make a bold bid from the inside draw if she comes on from her return

18:55 Leopardstown Group 3 14f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The highest rated runner in the line-up and a leading contender for the Ascot Gold Cup, EMILY DICKINSON is the one to beat. She ran some fine races in defeat at the highest-level last season and impressed on her return to action in the Vintage Crop Stakes at Navan. Rated just 2lb below the selection, Stratum is given second preference. A dual winner of the Queen Alexandra Stakes at Royal Ascot, the Willie Mullins trained 10-year-old will be ridden by Frankie Dettori, his sole ride on the card. Joseph O'Brien saddles three strong challengers, with Point King perhaps his leading hope. The Zoffany colt won three in-a-row last season, disappointing on his final start of the campaign on Champions Weekend. That effort was too bad to be true and he is given the chance to redeem himself now. Third in the Oaks at the Curragh last season, Cairde Go Deo (first time tongue-strap) is another that warrants respect.

EMILY DICKINSON shot herself to the head of the market for the Ascot Gold Cup when producing a very smart performance to win a listed race at Navan on her return so should prove hard to beat. Okita Soushi and Stratum can fight out minor honours.

Provided that she handles the likely quicker ground, EMILY DICKINSON, will be very hard to beat in her bid for a hat-trick.

19:30 Leopardstown Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

NUSRA was cruelly denied after attempting to make all at Limerick last month and she might be able to gain compensation now. Without a win in 27 starts, the Garrett Ahern-trained six-year-old appeared to enjoy herself out in front at Greenmount Park and was only headed inside the final 50 yards, going down by half-a-length. Promising apprentice Conor Stone-Walsh has been booked to ride the selection and he claims a valuable 7lb. Bolero finished a good third at Navan six days ago she is sure to have plenty of supporters turned out quickly, while other leading contenders include Supreme Law, Tudor Manor and Charlie Luciano. All Ways And Ever has shown some promise on her last two starts and is one who could outrun her odds.

A case can be made for lots of these and marginal preference is for TUDOR MANOR who made an encouraging return from nine months off when fifth at Limerick last time and figures on an attractive mark in his bid for a breakthrough success. Charlie Luciano is feared most on the back of his comfortable Kilbeggan victory ahead of in-form maiden Bolero and the returning Bayour Belle.

This looks fiendishly difficult. BOLERO is in better form than most and she was perhaps unlucky not to have gone really close last week

20:00 Leopardstown Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Maxine O'Sullivan won this race 12-months ago and she might be able to strike again on NIBIRU. A smart performer over flights, the Tony Martin trained eight-year-old refused to race at Haydock last weekend. He was a fast-finishing third on his most recent Flat start in October and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go two places better now. War Correspondent also returns to the level after a stint over hurdles and Rachael Blackmore reunites with the grey gelding, after partnering him to victory at Punchestown in October. The Teofilo four-year-old is still a maiden on the Flat but should give a good account of himself, tried over 1m4f for the first time. Authorized Art is sure to have plenty of supporters with Jody Townend aboard for Willie Mullins, while other leading contenders for this competitive affair are Effernock Fizz, Magellan Strait, Hell Bent and the hat-trick seeking Burren Song.

BURREN SONG arrives on the up and is fancied to defy a 6 lb rise in the weights and complete a hat-trick at the chief expense of Willie Mullins' Authorized Art, who returns to this sphere on a handy-looking mark. Dundalk scorer S'All Good Man appeals as the pick of the rest for place purposes.

A handicap that's attracted all sorts. AUTHORIZED ART is a class act over the jumps and has to be of interest off this low a mark.

20:30 Leopardstown Maiden 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SHAMIDA is likely to appreciate this step up in trip and looks the one to beat. Her two previous starts have also come at Leopardstown, finishing an eye-catching third on debut last October. She was again third on her recent return to action, keeping on well to take minor honours. Up to 1m4f now, she should be able to make the breakthrough. The 82-rated Water Nymph is an obvious danger, having recently finished third over the course and distance. Joseph O'Brien saddles newcomer Only In Dreams and Sugaree and they both warrant respect. The former is a full-sister to Winema, a Listed winner in France. Feach Amach is the pick of the Jim Bolger trained pair, while it'll be interesting to see how Humtaza fares, after she made some late progress on debut at Gowran last month.

SHAMIDA has shaped with plenty of encouragement on both starts to date and promises to be well suited by this longer trip, so he takes marginal preference over Water Nymph, who has actually achieved a bit more in form terms. Scarlett O'Hara is also of interest.

This step up to 1m4f has to be a major plus for SHAMIDA (nap) who was never nearer than at the finish here 12 days ago.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
