LTO Selection:

12:25 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

GLEN KILN, from the family of Limestone Lad, might prove better than this grade in time. He returned from a small break running for a new yard at Cork recently and ran well, catching the eye with a staying-on fourth to useful horses. Trackman Tommy disappointed at Ballinrobe in May but now returns from a summer break. The form of his course placing last March has worked out well with the runner-up and third winning subsequently and he likes testing ground. Quest For Speed showed ability last January while Soldat Flamboyant has moderate point-to-point form. Twocanduit's hurdles form is poor but notably won a December point-to-point on debut before losing the race due to a banned substance, and runs for a new yard. Kilbarry Saint ran well on points debut but isn't straightforward while Make Sunshine was reported to have hung right here last month and had previously raced keenly in May.

GLEN KILN showed much more sent hurdling when fourth in a big field at Cork and gets the vote over Quest With Speed and Trackman Tommy, who are at a similar level on their best form.

A promising run at Cork on his first outing for Harry Kelly suggests that GLEN KILN may be equal to this less demanding task.

LTO Selection:

13:00 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

CHAMPAGNE ADMIRAL has good recent form and likes testing ground. Progressive, he tackles a slightly lesser maiden than the ones in which he has been placed in recently. Chiefs Kingdom is also race-fit, goes on testing ground and ran well behind a capable type at Clonmel last month. He was beaten two lengths by Simpletwistoffaith at Kilbeggan last June but is now 4lb better off. Simpletwistoffaith finished eye-catchingly on debut for a new yard in that race and while well beaten subsequently, returns from a break. Ballycallan King, running in a first-time hood, has recent form and has place claims. Ask The Bookie was placed on debut in March 2022 and returned from 547 days off with a useful effort at Galway, from which he should improve.

A repeat of the form CHAMPAGNE ADMIRAL showed when second at Fairyhouse a couple of weeks ago will likely be good enough to see him make it third time lucky over hurdles. Paul Nolan's Chiefs Kingdom looks the chief threat on the back of his Clonmel second. Ballycallan King and Simpletwistoffaith are others who could have a say.

No match for the talented An Tobar at Fairyhouse two weeks ago, CHAMPAGNE ADMIRAL faces nothing of that calibre here

LTO Selection:

13:35 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

CAOIMHES PET has good recent form and likes testing ground. She disappointed in two runs, including here, last January/February but returned to form last month and can cope with a 2lb rise for her Sligo placing. Top weight Splashing Out is again ridden by a 7lb claimer and while she returns from a break, ran well here on heavy ground last Christmas. Pidoyne is 3lb higher than when second at Roscommon on her last run in September but today's rider claims 7lb. Leahs Tricks is interesting running in her first handicap. She was well held in a recent Grade 3 but had won a maiden hurdle in October and today's rider claims 7lb. Bents Hollow debuts for new connections in first-time cheekpieces on reappearance while Stellar Symphony's form is on a sound surface. Barbaha Queen and Mullins Cross are capable at this level while handicap debutante Double Dating represents a leading trainer but needs to improve.

PIDOYNE resumed progress after 4 months off when beaten only by a subsequent winner at Roscommon and can go one place better. Splashing Out and Caoimhes Pet head the dangers.

This looks open and perhaps CAOIMHES PET can maintain the progress that has yielded a Killarney win and a Sligo third

14:10 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

IVANE is 6lb higher than when winning last month and might follow up. It has taken a while for him to find form but having won a similar race on testing ground at Galway, should compete again. Natural Breeze has won just once from 23 runs but is in excellent from and should also compete under a 7lb claimer. Bite That, a half-brother to Might Bite, has also won once from 23 starts and, similarly, is in-form and ridden by a 7lb claimer. Verbal Sparring ran ok in a September handicap while Petit Dejeuner debuts in handicaps on reappearance. Shean Glory was beaten long distances on recent handicap runs but is able at this level.

BITE THAT made a good return from a break at Tramore last month and can build on that and land a second success. Natural Breeze has been knocking at the door lately and is second choice ahead of last-time-out Galway winner Ivane.

Top-weight BITE THAT might be able to win his second race. He was a solid third at Tramore on his comeback run and should have improved

14:45 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SHOTGUN JACK was utterly dominant over further in Galway last month and, if in the same mood, could take a bit of beating despite going up a stone in the weights. He sluiced home by 13 lengths on soft ground in Ballybrit and the form got a boost when the horse in fifth came out and landed a handicap hurdle in Wexford. My Friend The Wind was a winner when last seen in this discipline at Ballinrobe in August. His last two runs came over fences and his fourth at Galway can be viewed in a better light after the winner's exploits at Cheltenham on Saturday. Great Island's saddle slipped in Cork, so his remote third can be marked up. Prior to that, he was a wide-margin winner over a similar trip in Gowran Park. Vintage Gold was staying on when departing at the final flight in Listowel and has a chance while Cosmic Rock made a satisfactory return in fifth at this track last month after a very lengthy absence.

It could be worth siding with KALANISI DUBH, who stepped up on her reappearance effort when sixth in a 15-runner Sligo handicap and this step back up in trip looks a potentially good move. Shotgun Jack will likely prove popular following his much-improved display at Galway where he routed the opposition. He's gone up 14 lb and drops back in trip here but the 5-y-o has to be feared all the same. Great Island is another to consider, while Mason Lady is a likely improver now handicapping.

Maybe HAPPY DREAMS can supplement his two chase wins at this track with a hurdle win off a much lower mark.

15:20 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

WHAT AN OCEAN looks a likely sort for Gordon Elliott. This seven-year-old mare ran in snatches in a big field at Gowran Park, but was noted putting in good late work for fourth over 2m4f. Judging by that performance, she is well worth a shot at an extended 3m again. Danny Gilligan's 2lb claim is a bonus in this opportunity handicap hurdle. Billies Filly is up in trip, but has a shot on the back of a third place on handicap debut over 2m4f in Sligo. Well Polly won this race last year and showed a bit more form when fourth in Galway last month, so is far from out of it. Ballydangan didn't run badly in fifth at Down Royal and the winner followed up in Punchestown to enhance the form. Top-weight Kingston Kid gets first-time blinkers and Jack Gilligan lessens his burden by 4lb, while Meehall is more than capable of picking up a cheque in this grade.

BILLIES FILLY improved when third at Sligo last time and she can do better still upped in trip, so she's preferred to What An Ocean, who is well treated if able to build on her latest effort. Celine Man is also respected.

With improvement likely from her promising third at Sligo on return, BILLIES FILLY could get off the mark today.

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

FIELD A THISTLES has finished fourth in bumpers at Fairyhouse and Galway, and the form looks strong. She made her debut in the valuable Tattersalls Ireland Sales Bumper at Fairyhouse in April and was far from outclassed at 50/1. The winner of that race was last seen scoring in a Grade 3 mares' novices' hurdle at Down Royal this month. Field A Thistles reappeared at Galway in October and again ran solidly in a decent contest. She is entitled to come on from that and Jody Townend is a good booking. Ma Belle Etoile caught a tartar when a remote third over C&D last month. She is probably better judged on her debut second at Tipperary which brings her right into contention. Workinonadream has filled the runner-up berth on both occasions and should give her supporters plenty to cheer about. Killeavy Rose and Mayos Vendangeur are newcomers who are worth a market check.

WORKINONADREAM has the best form and should be able to open her account with a performance of similar merit to last time. Field A Thistles looks the main danger and Killeavy Rose would merit respect if the market spoke in her favour.

FIELD A THISTLES might be able to improve enough from her comeback at Galway to get the better of Workinonadream.

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.
