12:00 Leopardstown Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ASCENDING has the experience and sets a good standard in this. The Awtaad gelding was fifth in last season's Triumph Hurdle and ran a decent race on his return when third to It's For Me in a strong maiden hurdle at Punchestown last month. That form has been boosted by the runner-up Caldwell Potter winning since. Obviously the Willie Mullins-trained Anotherway commands plenty of respect. He was a winner in his native France and is a half-brother to Concertista, a good mare for the same connections. Gordon Elliott is represented by D B Cooper. The Getaway gelding was beaten at a short price on his 'track' debut but looked to run into a smart horse in Jeroboam Machin then and the point-to-point winner may do better now over timber.

NO FLIES ON HIM beat three subsequent winners under Rules when successful on his sole start between the flags in February and has the look of a potentially useful recruit. It will look significant if he's strong in the market. Ascending sets a good standard judged on what he's shown in his four starts over hurdles and is a much-respected main danger. D B Cooper also commands respect, while Sansrisk is not without each-way hope and I Am Lorenzo needs a second look in the betting.

The experience gained last season by ASCENDING could be a crucial factor and the form of his seasonal debut appears very solid

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

KING OF KINGSFIELD comes here off a cracking run to finish second in Grade 1 company and can get his head in front now. The Vadamos gelding was chased down by Farren Glory on the run-in in the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse. He has been described as a bit of a weak finisher, but is a classy horse and his fitness and experience is a big asset. Willie Mullins talks highly of Mirazur West and he looks like an obvious danger. Ferny Hollow's brother was impressive when winning a Naas bumper back in March. James's Gate was formerly with Mullins and is an interesting runner on his first outing for Martin Brassil. The Shantou gelding was third to Facile Vega in the 2022 running of the Cheltenham Champion Bumper and returns from a lengthy absence.

It's tough to ignore the claims of KING OF KINGSFIELD given he was second in a Grade 1 last time. Mirazur West looked very promising when winning his bumper in the spring and is the obvious danger. Old Port may prove best of the remainder.

As a Grade 1 runner-up with plenty of hurdling experience, \bKING OF KINGSFIELD\ should be hard to beat back in a maiden, albeit a hot one

13:10 Leopardstown Conditions Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

This could be a very informative race for the juvenile division this season. MIGHTY BANDIT has probably been the most impressive of the three-year-olds seen in Ireland so far and he can take the next step up the ladder. The Order Of St George gelding pulled clear in some style when scoring at Punchestown last month and, unlike some of his rivals, he didn't have experience from the Flat so there looks scope for plenty of improvement. Nurburgring has to carry a penalty after his win over Kala Conti in Grade 3 company at Fairyhouse, but has to be respected. Willie Mullins saddles five and there aren't many clues on jockey bookings with Paul Townend in Kempton. Danny Mullins rides Kargese, who was a Grade 3 winner over hurdles in France and she could be a big player.

It's interesting that Jack Kennedy seemingly prefers MIGHTY BANDIT to his more-established stablemate Kala Conti. That filly can turn around recent Fairyhouse form with Nurburgring on 7 lb better terms and provide the chief threat. It'll also be fascinating to see what the betting makes of the 5 Willie Mullins runners, 4 of whom are starting out for the stable after coming over from France, Kargese possibly best of them.

Willie Mullins has a good team but preference is for MIGHTY BANDIT who looked like potential star material on his debut at Punchestown

Very deep ground in Gowran may not have been ideal for PARK OF KINGS and he may be able to pick up the winning thread again. The Walk In The Park gelding has reportedly has wind issues so it was still a solid effort to finish third last time. He had won twice previously, at Roscommon and Punchestown, and there looks scope for a bit more from the five-year-old. Lazer Wolf has been knocking on the door and Conor Stone-Walsh takes a valuable 5lb off now. He could be a big contender. Riyami comes here in good form from Dundalk and is an interesting runner back over timber.

Several in with a shout but the vote goes to BELGOPRINCE, who did well to get involved given how hard he pulled early when seventh at Cheltenham last month and Tony Martin's 6-y-o can open his account over hurdles back on these shores. Lazer Wolf, Park of Kings, Dollar Nolmit and Woodstream Lad are just a handful of others all capable of getting involved, too.

He disappointed at Cheltenham but SHOWMAN's second to a progressive type at Cork the time before is solid handicap form

Only four go to post but it's a cracking little race and FACILE VEGA can bag another Grade 1 win. The Walk In The Park gelding has had a lot to live up to with his pedigree and has done a sterling job, with four top-level successes already in the bag. The former Champion Bumper winner had a couple of reverses over timber last season, but ended the campaign on a high and was good on his chase debut at Navan last month. He looked like he would improve from that experience as well. Found A Fifty ran really well when second in Grade 1 company in the Drinmore and just looked to be outstayed late on by I Am Maximus. He may be the one to give the selection most to do. Sharjah disappointed at Fairyhouse and needs to improve on that showing. My Mate Mozzie was turned over on his chase debut at Fairyhouse, but was a smooth winner at Cheltenham last time and deserves a shot at this level.

FACILE VEGA looks sure to improve from his chase debut success at Navan last month and ought to take plenty of beating here. Found A Fifty should give him most to think about.

Willie Mullins has won this in six of the past eight years and things should be relatively straightforward for FACILE VEGA

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

CHAVEZ was impressive when last seen at Fairyhouse in late January and is interesting here on his handicap debut. The Yeats gelding unseated early on his first outing for Willie Mullins before running out a wide-margin winner the next month. He could be nicely treated off a mark of 132. Typical Thomas comes here in fine form after a good win in a valuable contest down in Cork in October. He went up 10lb for that, which makes life a bit tougher in this company. Skippin Court ran well in a beginners chase at Wexford last month, when third to The King Of Prs, and the runner-up Henn See has boosted that form since. He's on a nice weight on his first outing in handicap company over fences.

There's still room for improving in the jumping department but CHAVEZ otherwise looked pretty good when running away with a big-field maiden chase at Fairyhouse and, on a fair mark for this handicap debut, he looks the way to go. Cayd Boy needs to get back on track but will be a threat if able to so do off this reduced mark, while The Greek is capable of a bold show and the hat-trick seeking Typical Thomas has to enter calculations, too.

Wide open and the nod goes to THE GREEK who goes well fresh, is a course winner over hurdles and will appreciate a decent surface

15:30 Leopardstown NH Flat Race 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

PRENDS GARDE A TOI ran a big race on his 'track' debut when going down by half a length to The Passing Wife at Punchestown last month. The Kapgarde gelding stuck on well again close home then and looked like he would improve from the experience. Willie Mullins introduces point-to-point winner Cantico, a narrow victor at Liscarroll in March. The Diamond Boy gelding commands plenty of respect. Mywayofthinkin is an interesting newcomer for Gavin Cromwell and JP McManus. The Flemensfirth gelding is a half-brother to some smart sorts in Limerick Lace, Ilikedwayurthinkin, Inothewayurthinkin and Spades Are Trumps.

CANTICO has been acquired by top connections on the back of a point win and he's a likely candidate to make a successful start under Rules acknowledging Prends Garde A Toi sets a reasonable standard. Mywayofthinkin is worth considering if strong in the betting.

It could be argued that PRENDS GARDE A TOI is vulnerable after two instances of beaten favouritism but his experience may be decisive
