13:30 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BLUE MOSQUE is a half-sister to her trainer's two black-type performers Sixshooter and She's A Star and showed plenty ability in winning on debut last April. She debuts over jumps today but that Naas form is working out well with the third, fifth and seventh-placed horses scoring subsequently while the previously point-to-point-placed runner-up had been well touted. Ma Bess was beaten 39 lengths in a recent Listed bumper but had previously shown better form. A point-to-point winner, she defeated two subsequent dual winners when scoring at Wexford and is forgiven a below-par hurdling debut run at that track in late August as she blundered badly at the first flight. Bumper winner Miss Dishy has recent form and can place.

BLUE MOSQUE got on top close home when making a winning start to her career in a Naas bumper and, with with the strong possibility of better to come from this 4-y-o now tackling hurdles, she gets the nod. Miss Dishy is the pick of those with experience in this sphere and she is clear second choice ahead of Ma Bess and Vadsa Queen.

BLUE MOSQUE is preferred. She won her bumper well, she is related to a couple of talented hurdlers and this looks a weakish race.

14:05 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SPORTING GLORY is a lightly-raced eight-year-old but showed smart ability in his belated debut season and was sold last May as part of the Clipper Logistics dispersal sale, for 120,000 pounds. His bumper form is strong and having dipped his toe into late-season hurdling in a Fairyhouse Grade 2 last March, should now take the beating debuting for a new yard. Taponthego has been withdrawn from two recent maiden hurdles and while he is a notable runner on his debut for new connections, needs to be smart to beat the selection. Wrecking Ballbilly had good bumper form in 2023 but is probably best watched on his hurdles' debut following a 345-day layoff.

This looks ripe for SPORTING GLORY, who made it third time lucky in bumpers at Fairyhouse last season prior to a very promising hurdling debut in a Grade 2 at the same course. He makes his debut for the Gordon Elliott yard in far less exalted company and will likely prove hard to beat. Taponthego showed promise on his completed start in maiden points and is preferred to Wrecking Ballbilly for forecast purposes.

A late-developing bumper winner for Pat Fahy last season, SPORTING GLORY could be a cut above these rivals.

14:40 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BILLY LEE SWAGGER performed consistently well in his most recent handicap hurdle runs last winter and could well progress further, being just a five-year-old. Very much proven on testing ground, he also showed a liking for yielding when finishing a useful fourth in a big-field Punchestown festival handicap in April and a reproduction of that would give him every chance. In For The Night seemed to benefit from reverting back up in distance when winning at Gowran recently and while has has been raised 8lb, should again compete. King Kali is out of a Grade 3-winning dam and, since returning from a layoff last season, has shown good recent form and is well suited by soft ground.

It took a dozen attempts for IN FOR THE NIGHT to get his head in front but the manner of his recent breakthrough success at Gowran suggests that there is more to come, Indeed, an 8 lb rise is unlikely to be enough to prevent him from going in again. Billy Lee Swagger has low mileage and will be a serious player if fully tuned-up for this, while Dream In The Park is dangerous to discount having slipped to an attractive mark. King Kali scored at Listowel last time and he also needs a mention.

BILLY LEE SWAGGER ran a cracker in a stronger race when last seen at Punchestown and a repeat of that off the same mark could suffice.

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

SIZE FIVE is difficult to assess as his good ground September success at Perth was gained in an ordinary race but he scored effortlessly then. His four-year-old form was itself just average but on his return following 640 days off at Perth, he was well supported and won eased down by 20 lengths. He encounters softer ground today but could prove to be ahead of the handicapper with a 104 rating. Tilloughna and Stellar Symphony are also recent last-time-out winners who stay well, but have more exposed profiles. Georgian Quarter showed some promise when upped in trip at Cork in May but he reappears under top weight on handicap debut.

SIZE FIVE cruised home on his first start following a 21-month absence at Perth and, provided he avoids the dreaded 'bounce' factor, this unexposed 6-y-o looks capable of defying a 12 lb rise in the weights with the distinct promise of better to come. Wa Wa returned to form when hitting the crossbar at Roscommon and he'll be a threat if able to build on that. Lucky Viv won't be far away if on-song, while Georgian Quarter and Midleton Rare are likely improvers now venturing into handicap company.

Noel Kelly's SIZE FIVE has been transformed during a long layoff judging by the ease of last month's Perth win. He can follow up

15:50 Limerick Handicap Chase 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

HORANTZAU D'AIRY's chances are obvious having finished second to Flooring Porter in last month's Kerry National, with the pair pulling clear of the remainder. Being a keen-goer, he had previously been kept to shorter distances but has settled better in recent times and stayed this distance well at Listowel. He is proven on soft ground and remains a little unexposed over staying distances. Grade 2 victor Favori De Champdou is likely to have been aimed at this race since his success in an April Grade 3 novice chase over today's course and distance, and is Gordon Elliott's first string. Panda Boy was outclassed in April's Aintree National but had previously finished second in the Paddy Power Chase last Christmas.

It's hard to ignore the claims of HORANTZAU D'AIRY, who proved that this trip is well within his range when a staying-on second to easy winner Flooring Porter in the Kerry National at Listowel last month. He's gone up 4 lb for that but he's unexposed as a stayer and is taken to provide the Willie Mullins yard with a fourth success in this race since 2017. Perceval Legallois and Panda Boy may emerge as the main dangers, though Yeah Man will also be a player if ready to roll.

A fine effort behind the dominant Flooring Porter at Listowel suggests that HORANTZAU D'AIRY now has the credentials for 3m success

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

SHANTREUSSE remains on a favourable-looking mark having blundered away his chances in Aintree's Topham Chase in April. Well suited by testing ground, he nonetheless disappointed in the Thyestes Chase in January but bounced back with a good runner-up effort at Naas the following month and ran a fine race at Aintree, considering his bad blunder at the fifth-last fence. Kings Halo disappointed in the aforementioned Naas race but had a veterinary excuse as he returned lame. He was well beaten on his season reappearance at Killarney, that was at an inadequate distance and over hurdles and, last season, had the profile of a progressive type. Invictus Machin is 7lb higher than when winning on yielding to soft ground in August.

This drop back in trip may be a good thing for NATURAL LOOK, who travelled strongly for most of the way when third in a 2¾m Ballinrobe handicap over hurdles last month and she is versatile ground-wise. Invictus Machin opened his chase account at Kilbeggan last time and looks the pick of the Gavin Cromwell-trained quartet. He is feared most ahead of El Champo.

A chance is taken on THE BIG CHAP. He shaped nicely on his last start in this sphere, he has course form and he is ground versatile.

17:00 Limerick Maiden Chase 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FARREN GLORY is an exciting chasing recruit and is helped by having prior point-to-point experience. Defeated in both pointing starts, he later showed high-class hurdling ability, landing December's Royal Bond Hurdle before falling at the second last - with the race at his mercy - in that month's Tolworth Hurdle at Aintree. He was reported to have had blood at both nostrils following a subsequent February defeat but has been freshened up and returns following a summer holiday. Mint Boy is himself an able 137-rated hurdler and while he won on his only point-to-point start, lacks some of the selection's ability. Little Mixup is rated 125 over hurdles and exited at the seventh fence on his recent chase debut.

Save for his latest effort at Leopardstown in February when clearly far from 100%, FARREN GLORY was a very promising novice hurdler last season and he will surely prove much too good for these rivals, provided his jumping passes the test on this chase debut. Mint Boy and Little Mixup can fill the places.

If FARREN GLORY can replicate his very smart hurdling form on his chasing debut he'll be hard to beat if handling the ground.
