12:20 Leopardstown Maiden Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

KAID D'AUTHIE showed promise on debut behind Majborough in France last year and was backed as if defeat was out of the question on his first run since, when making the running until falling about halfway at Navan earlier this month. It will be interesting to see how strong stablemate Kalix Delabarriere is in the market having landed the odds in a Ballinrobe bumper that has worked out well, while Koktail Divin stays well and impressed when winning twice on the Flat in France. Sermandzarak also rates a serious threat having won the valuable Goffs Defender Bumper at the Punchestown Festival and he beat all bar Butch Cassidy on his hurdle debut over 2m3f at the same venue.

The strength behind KAID D'AUTHIE in the betting at Navan suggests he'd been giving the right signals at Closutton so he's taken to gain compensation, with confidence increased should the market speak in his favour again. Gordon Elliott's Sermandzarak made a promising start to his hurdle career at Punchestown and is second choice ahead of the other Willie Mullins runner Kalix Delabarriere.

The one to beat may be SERMANDZARAK (nap) who won a valuable Punchestown bumper and was only narrowly denied on last month's return

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

PORTARLINGTON has proved a great acquisition for current connections completing a hat-trick and was particularly impressive over this trip at Fairyhouse last time, with Ladiam over 12 lengths behind in third. Stay Gold caught the eye when finishing well on his handicap debut over 2m3f at Punchestown, while Giant Haystacks and point-to-point winner Lady Rose Hackett have also shown promise and have scope for further improvement. His Nibs steps up in trip on his handicap debut, while Aurea Fortuna, Jolie Jewel and Arch Enemy are others to consider.

A chance is taken on handicap newcomer LADY ROSE HACKETT for last year's winning trainer/jockey combination of Henry de Bromhead and Rachael Blackmore. His Nibbs is another who appeals as a likely improver in handicaps and also makes the shortlist along with the thriving Portarlington and the other de Bromhead runner Freddie Robdal.

It might be worth taking a flying on COZONE who is on his lowest mark for some time and should appreciate a return to further

13:20 Leopardstown Maiden Chase 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Willie Mullins holds a strong hand and riding arrangements suggest QUAI DE BOURBON is the pick of his three runners. The selection won three times over hurdles last season and was also placed on his only other start in the Martin Pipe at the Cheltenham Festival. Chapeau De Soleil has always been held in high regard and also won three times over hurdles last term, including landing a valuable handicap at the Punchestown Festival. An Tobar was impressive in winning his point-to-point and was placed in a Grade 1 over hurdles, while Captain Cody was a Grade 2 hurdle winner last season but didn't impress with his jumping when switching to fences at Tipperary last month.

QUAI DE BOURBON's sole defeat from four starts over hurdles last season came in the Martin Pipe at the Cheltenham Festival, a race in which he finished a very solid third. The 5-y-o is armed with sky-high potential now tackling the larger obstacles and, granted a clear round, he will prove hard to beat. Dee Capo, who was still firmly in contention when falling two out at Navan three weeks ago, is feared most ahead of the selection's stablemates Captain Cody and Chapeau de Soleil.

DEE CAPO was running a big race before a fall in a decent beginners' at Navan latest and he can put his chase experience to good use

14:00 Leopardstown Conditions Hurdle 23f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

HOME BY THE LEE won this race two years ago and recorded a ninth career win when making a successful reappearance at Navan last month. The Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding can be prone to hitting a flat spot in his races but recorded a smooth victory when beating Bob Olinger in that 2m4f Grade 2 event and is suited by this extra 4f. Hewick, who is best suited by good ground, and Noble Yeats are the pick of these over fences. The former won the King George at Kempton last Christmas and now reverts to hurdles after running a cracker when narrowly denied by Envoi Allen at Down Royal last month, while Grand National winner Noble Yeats may just need the run.

HOME BY THE LEE was safely held in this race 12 months ago but he landed the 2022 edition and looks the way to go on the back of his reappearance success in the Lismullen Hurdle at Navan where he proved too strong for Bob Olinger and six others. The latter renews rivalry on 5 lb better terms but the jury remains out as to whether he stays this far and a bigger threat may be posed by Asterion Forlonge, who was runner-up in this 12 months ago and was also second in a Punchestown Grade 1 in April.

Winner of this race two years ago, HOME BY THE LEE is possibly a stronger staying type than Bob Olinger who rates a big danger

Dual Gold Cup victor GALOPIN DES CHAMPS can regain the winning thread for Willie Mullins and Paul Townend. Although beaten on his seasonal reappearance in the John Durkan Chase last month, the eight-year-old ran a huge race in the circumstances. Forced to make the running, the Timos gelding made a brave bid over a trip short of his best. Back over three-miles here, it will take a smart performance to lower his colours. Durkan winner Fact To File leapt to the head of the Gold Cup betting after taking the aforementioned race in impressive fashion. However, he faces a real test now, taking on the reigning champion on what is one of his favourite tracks. Grand National winner I Am Maximus is one that shouldn't be underestimated.

FACT TO FILE wasted no time in announcing himself at chasing's top table when lowering the colours of Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Galopin Des Champs no less in the John Durkan at Punchestown last month and can confirm himself the leading chaser around by again proving too strong for his stablemate in a thrilling Savills Chase. Inothewayurthinkin and Conflated appeal as the pick of the rest in the battle for minor honours.

Course specialist GALOPIN DES CHAMPS is tipped to avenge the Punchestown defeat inflicted by year-younger stablemate Fact To File

Lightly raced over flights, the Noel Meade-trained GOLDEN TEMPLE can complete a hat-trick. A winner of his latest two National Hunt starts at Downpatrick and Roscommon respectively, the four-year-old really caught the eye with a huge run over an inadequate trip on the level at Dundalk recently. Sure to have been lined up for this particular contest, he can continue his progression. Win Some Lose Some gave the impression that he would be suited to stepping up to three-miles when staying on to finish fifth in Listed class at Naas last time. King Alexander has to be of interest on his first start for Willie Mullins. A four-time winner when trained in Britain, the six-year-old has the potential to play a big part.

A few with chances but FORTUNEDEFORTUNATA can race off the same mark as when a very good Navan fourth last time out so looks the way to go. Tranquil Sea heads the list of dangers on the back of his good Clonmel second, although a solid case can also be made for Binge Worthy, Golden Temple and Win Some Lose Some.

Paul Nolan has three runners here. FEET OF A DANCER has run creditably in mares' races and gets a hopeful vote over Maxi Mac Gold

15:40 Leopardstown NH Flat Race 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Dromahane third GLOBAL SUBMISSION can make a winning debut under rules. A notable Irish runner for Walters Plant Hire Ltd, the Henry de Bromhead-trained four-year-old is a horse of huge potential. The winner of that aforementioned point-to-point franked the form when striking on his racecourse debut for Willie Mullins. The latter runs Soir De Garde here. Runner-up on his initial outing at Punchestown last month, that form was also boosted when the easy winner followed up on his next start. Portrush point-to-point winner Kovanis has to be respected on his first appearance for Gordon Elliott.

KOVANIS has joined top connections for a hefty sum after an easy point win and he's the obvious one to side with having his first go under Rules. Soir De Garde should improve on his debut and, in the unlikely even that Kilwaughter participates 2 days on from his winning debut, he'd be a live danger.

SOIR DE GARDE finished 2nd to a subsequent Listed winner last month and this half-brother to State Man should improve
