12:50 Limerick Claiming Hurdle 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Denis Hogan fields three horses and he could return to the saddle aboard a winner on BALLYADAM DESTINY. This is quite a drop in class from his last start when sixth in Fairyhouse. His runner-up berth on penultimate start at Limerick over Christmas was a more than decent effort. Optional Mix has a rating of 121 which entitles her to respect in this company. Furthermore, she has winning form at this track, so she has brighter prospects than most. Hogan's Bal De Rio has actually finished runner-up in three claiming hurdles in a row. He should run his race under Joey Sheridan who is more known for his exploits on the Flat. Decimation kept good company over flights a couple of years ago, but comes with risks having switched stables since he was last seen in December 2022.

BAL DE RIO was second in this last year and can go one place better as he sets the standard on these terms. Stablemate Ballyadam Destiny and Optional Mix are a couple of the chief dangers on form but the betting could be revealing.

The safest option may be BALLYADAM DESTINY who could have a fitness edge over stablemate Bal De Rio and Decimation

13:25 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ANOTHER OCANA appears to reserve his best performances for Limerick and made the breakthrough at this track last month. The 7lb rise in the weights is completely offset by the booking of claimer Jack Gilligan. Merry Moves has course form and a good claimer on board, so is more than capable of a big run as she has been placed in two of her last four races over flights. She is a long-standing maiden, but there isn't much depth to this race. A market move for Kiln Time on his first start for his new stable would be interesting based on his back form while Golden Symphony, who was placed on her last visit to this track, could respond to first-time blinkers.

Poor fare and ANOTHER OCANA might be capable of following up his win here last month. Merry Moves is an interesting alternative, while What An Ocean has a good chance on the pick of her form.

The vote goes to ANOTHER OCANA, who came good with a course win over 2m3f last time and has a 7lb claimer aboard to offset his rise

14:00 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

AH FUHGEDDABOUDIT's third place in a mares' maiden hurdle at Clonmel this month gives her every chance of getting off the mark in this company. Mag Dillane has plenty of experience to call upon and is only rated 1lb inferior to Ah Fuhgeddaboudit, so is likely to be on the premises. Lep Around showed marked improvement to score by a wide margin in her third point-to-point. A hood goes on for her track debut but, if in the same mood, she could go well. Chatterbox, Justmadeit and Noriska De La Mare are others with claims.

AH FUHGEDDABOUDIT has often been highly tried over hurdles but this is one of her easiest assignments to date and, with her experience counting for a good deal, this could be her chance to get off the mark. Mag Dillane and recent point winner Lep Around head up the dangers.

This looks like a fine opportunity for AH FUHGEDDABOUDIT (nap) who was placed behind a Willie Mullins-trained pair last time

14:35 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MISTERGIF hasn't run since March but has good French form, both on the Flat and over hurdles. An 11-race maiden, he nonetheless has run well on the Flat at Longchamp and twice at top jumps venue Auteuil - finishing second on his latest start in a useful race. He handles testing conditions and today's 5lb claimer takes over from a 9lb claimer last time. Milo Lises ran really well on Punchestown Festival debut last April and while he flopped at Tramore on New Year's Day, is surely capable of far better, although needs to prove himself. Ballycallan King and Ask The Bookie were separated by a nose over C&D during Christmas and while that winner has subsequently boosted the form, Ballycallan King was twice well beaten in useful handicaps. Both horses are nonetheless capable and have place claims. Poets Cottage is a 14-race maiden who disappointed at Christmas, while Surf Club was well held at Clonmel in a race where another slow learner King Of Cong caught the eye.

If the market vibes surrounding french import MISTERGIF are upbeat the hint should be taken. He was runner-up on the second of his two starts over hurdles on the other side of the Channel and is probably capable of better. Ask The Bookie looks the main threat on the back of his solid C&D effort but Poet's Cottage also has claims. In addition to the selection, Willie Mullins also fields Milo Lises and Surf Club, with the former also worth a second look.

The fact that MISTERGIF has merited Cheltenham entries must have some significance in the context of a maiden of this standard.

15:10 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A chance is taken that FLEMENS INTREST can win on handicap debut, under a 4lb claimer. A brother to Scottish National winner Beshabar, and an April point-to-point winner, he might prefer a longer distance but his sixth-placing in a smart Cork maiden in November reads very well, with the seventh-placed horse now rated 121, while the eighth was placed in a recent handicap. Carlas Big Jim's chances are more evident, having run well twice recently, although he drops in distance. Joeswayornoway has won just once from 24 hurdle attempts but ran well at Naas, while Tingarran Express' rating has gradually fallen to a winnable level and she ran well twice recently. Likable Chancer is a 22-race maiden over hurdles and while he races from a lower mark to his chase rating, drops in distance. Pana To Milan has been running well.

A chance is taken on PANA TO MILAN who was better than the result in a stronger race than this at Naas last time. Carlas Big Jim and Tingarran Express are others to consider, while handicap newcomer Flemens Intrest appeals as potential improver.

Having found some consistency lately, CARLAS BIG JIM might be able to get off the mark despite creeping up the handicap.

15:45 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MOUNT FRISCO showed improvement when tried over fences recently and looks a progressive five-year-old. His hurdles form was just ordinary, but he won well at this distance over fences on New Year's Day and ran well in a subsequent handicap chase. He reverts to timber rated 10lb lower than fences and is ridden by a 5lb claimer. Keen-going debut bumper winner Mitiva has been frustrating over hurdles and while her jumping has caught her out on occasions, she will be suited by again going right-handed as she shows a small tendency to jump right. Today's rider claims 5lb but she meets a potentially nicely-treated selection. Caoimhes Pet has been well held on recent runs and races in a first-time tongue-tie, while stablemate New Barn Lane disappointed on a recent run but had previously run well in two course handicaps. Flidais's best form is on a sound surface.

Successful on her only start in bumpers, MITIVA has highlighted she's capable of defying this sort of mark over hurdles in recent months, again running well when fourth at Punchestown 16 days ago. She earns the vote dropped back in trip, with Mount Frisco, following a successful stint over fences, and Caoimhes Pet heading up the dangers. In The Trenches needs monitoring in the betting for clues on his handicap bow.

Having raced keenly over further lately, while still running creditably, MITIVA will be better suited by dropping back to the minimum

16:20 Limerick NH Flat Race 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Soft-ground point-to-point winner MACHISMO swerved Fairyhouse's soft terrain last Saturday and could be useful. A half-brother to the smart Keeper Hill, he won for today's trainer at Borris House on debut last month, has changed ownership since, and represents a yard in flying form. The Dancing Tree contested a good point-to-point on debut for Peter Flood last April, with the runner-up being smart. It is encouraging he reappears in a bumper but concedes race-fitness to the selection. Eastbank Warrior was in contention when falling on May's pointing debut and with his trainer operating at an impressive strike-rate, it was notable he was declared to run at Leopardstown last Christmas, prior to be being withdrawn with a stone bruise. Out of a half-sister to One For Arthur, he could be capable. Olympy De Cerisy won an attritional Loughrea point on debut last October, beating the only other finisher by 16 lengths, prior to failing to sell for 95,000 pounds at auction. By a French Guineas and Derby winner, he has a mostly Flat pedigree but handles testing ground. Half A Chance, an 8,000-euro three-year-old, is a half-brother to three black-type performers.

Point winners MACHISMO and Olympy de Cerisy are likely to dominate this contest, with the former marginally preferred having been picked up by top connections. The Dancing Tree hasn't achieved as much as that pair between the flags but he's bred for bumpers, so he's also respected.

Having finished just 1l behind a very smart subsequent bumper winner in a point, THE DANCING TREE can score on rules debut.
