16:55 Leopardstown Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

There's a lot to like about Aidan O'Brien's GISELLE on paper being by Frankel out of a Breeders' Cup winner, with Ryan Moore on board. She holds a Group 2 entry for the end of the month. Dahlia Noir showed plenty of potential when runner-up on debut over a similar trip at this track behind a well-regarded winner. She sets a more-than-decent standard for the newcomers to reach. O'Brien also takes the wraps off another regally-bred filly in Bedtime Story, who is by Frankel out of a Group 1-winning sprinter. She has the same Group 2 engagement. Queens Fury and Jessica Harrington's newcomer Vega's Muse shouldn't be ruled out.

DAHLIA NOIR's runner-up effort here 3 weeks ago was chock-full of promise given her obvious greenness. Sure to build on that, she's the percentage call, for all Aidan O'Brien unleashes a couple of very well-bred debutantes in Giselle and Bedtime Story.

C&D second Dahlia Noir has major claims but could find superbly-bred debutante GISELLE too strong

17:30 Leopardstown Listed 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The 107-rated PORTLAND has to be the starting point up in trip. This Dubawi colt was last seen finishing fourth in a Group 3 at Sandown and has a third place in a Group 1 in France last autumn in his locker. Keeper's Heart is next best with a mark of 102. He received a hike of 13lb from the handicapper after a close fourth in the Group 3 Derby Trial at Leopardstown in May. He is also up in trip and is very much unexposed after three runs. Jessica Harrington said she was looking forward to seeing Kinesiology over this distance after he won his maiden over an extended 1m2f in Cork last month.

PORTLAND and Keeper's Heart produced career-best efforts in Group 3 company last time and may well fight out the finish with this trip sure to suit both. Marginal preference is for the Aidan O'Brien representative.

Portland edges it on form but KEEPER'S HEART may have more scope for improvement at this trip

18:00 Leopardstown Handicap 13f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Dermot Weld's ASTAR won her maiden on good ground in Clonmel last September and will appreciate this surface. Her fourth in a higher grade at Navan in April reads well as the winner endorsed the form in Killarney. St Faz was placed over a similar trip in Navan and subsequently took a maiden hurdle in Killarney. He has to be respected reverting to the Flat off a mark of 74. Sugaree makes her seasonal reappearance and shed her maiden tag at this track last season, so is one to monitor for market strength. Theophilos had a good run in second over a shorter trip at Roscommon and is in the mix.

Preference is for THEOPHILOS, who stepped up on his reappearance run when second at Roscommon last month and looks worth another crack at this longer trip. St Faz and Astar are feared most

A winner over hurdles recently, ST FAZ had earlier finished a good third on the Flat at Navan and could be the one to be on here

18:30 Leopardstown Listed 9f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

TARAWA is taken to progress from her third place in Listed class over 7f at Naas last month. She is entitled to come on from that first run in over seven months and should appreciate this new trip. Cairo has to be feared on his first start for Alice Haynes. He was runner-up in last season's Irish 2,000 Guineas for Aidan O'Brien and has a Group 3 triumph at this venue in the book. Jim Bolger's Clean Energy has some very notable Group 1 entries and is pitched in here for his debut, so has to be given a market check. Self Belief enjoys this track, but would prefer some juice in the ground.

TARAWA was a bit disappointing on her comeback run at Naas but she probably needed that so is worth another chance with headgear back on. Self Belief isn't the most consistent and is penalised for his Group 3 win over C&D last summer, but still rates the main threat ahead of improving 3-y-o Formal Display.

With a possible race-fitness edge TARAWA (nap) gets the vote over Cairo

19:00 Leopardstown Handicap 9f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

LIVIO MILO's staying-on third over 1m at this track in April was a notable performance. Judging by that effort, this extra furlong will do him no harm at all. This Songisforyou is sure to be popular on his first start of the season after hacking up in a Clonmel maiden when last seen in September. Prior to that, he was just pipped by a short head over C&D, so his form stacks up. The admirable Longbourn rarely runs a bad race and should be in there pitching on his return to action. Furthermore, he has gone well fresh before. Shigar posted two decent placed efforts last month, which gives him a chance.

Dermot Weld and Chris Hayes combined to land this last year and they can repeat that feat with LIVIO MILO, who ran up to his best when third at this track a couple of months ago and has his usual headgear reapplied here. Shigar has returned with a couple of third-placed efforts in big-field handicaps, so he's put forward as the main danger, with Longbourn taken to edge out handicap-debutant This Songisforyou for bronze.

Having gone close off a 2lb lower mark at the Curragh last time over a mile, SHIGAR can get back on the scoresheet up in trip.

19:30 Leopardstown Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

NOT FORGOTTEN hasn't been beaten far at all in his last three outings and could be ready to double his career total. The blinkers that were tried when fourth in this grade at the Curragh are retained. The in-form Glor Tire reappears under the mandatory 7lb penalty after obliging at Gowran Park on Monday. A 10lb claimer has been enlisted to more than offset the penalty in her bid for a hat-trick. If that race hasn't left a mark, she is a major contender. Rampage goes well at Leopardstown, while handicap debutant Solomon Coop is one to note. Currumbin, Chavajod and Darkdeserthighway cannot not be ruled out in a competitive heat.

GLOR TIRE has returned an improved model and is fancied to complete the hat-trick under a penalty. Fellow 3-y-o Currumbin is next best ahead of Not Forgotten.

A close second on handicap debut at Killarney last time, CURRUMBIN could improve enough to defy a 5lb higher mark.

20:00 Leopardstown Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

POMERIGGIO has an each-way chance from stall one. Her fourth place in a better-class contest at Dundalk has been well franked and the inside draw gives this prominent racer the opportunity to put her best foot forward. I Bid You Ajou has been placed on his last couple of starts and Colin Keane stays loyal, so the pair have to enter calculations. Artful Approach kept on well for fourth over 7f at Cork, so is well worth another crack at 1m in first-time cheekpieces. Posh Maisie can make her presence felt in her first handicap for Johnny Murtagh and Ben Coen.

I BID YOU AJOU returned to form when second at Gowran a month ago and he's well treated on the pick of his 2-y-o efforts, so he gets the nod over Zenato, who may have more to offer. Artful Approach is another definite player.

Though a soundly beaten runner-up on heavy ground at Gowran last time, I BID YOU AJOU will be more at home on this sounder surface.

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.
