Starliner

2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(3) Starliner 2.5/1, Thrice-raced colt. Second of 8 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good, 3/1) 13 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Already above average and not discounted.
RPRs 80-88 (7f/1m, good), and looks straightforward; should give Master Of The Hunt a race.

Tried 5f or 1m, nothing so far (80s or bigger).
LTO Selection:

14:05 Listowel Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MASTER OF THE HUNT is entitled to step forward from his debut run at the Curragh and looks the one to beat now. The No Nay Never colt was third to stablemate Henry Longfellow on his debut in July and that obviously looks very strong form now with the winner an impressive winner of the National Stakes recently. The runner-up and fourth have also scored since. Starliner has been knocking on the door and may have the misfortune of bumping into another useful sort here. My Princess showed promise when sixth in a strong Naas maiden, won by Kitty Rose, on her debut and it will be interesting to see how she fares.

MASTER OFF THE HUNT is hard to oppose given his promisig debut, pedigree and connections. O'Brien junior's Starliner has the form to compete but has less scope for improvement.

MASTER OF THE HUNT should win, though he's been off for a little bit so a big market move for Starliner would be a worry

Likes an ease and blessed to be in this grade after narrow Galway third; likes soft ground.
LTO Selection:

14:40 Listowel Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ZEPHRON was well backed at Gowran Park on his last run, in late July, and it was a better effort to finish third then behind Golden Days. He has been dropped a few pounds since that run and Oisin Murphy is obviously an eye-catching booking now. Tim Doyle has his string in fine form and Von Krolock has run well to be placed on his last couple of outings. He looks a big player again here. Rock Dandy comes into this seeking a hat-trick after two quick wins at Cork and Roscommon. Conor Stone-Walsh takes a valuable 7lb off his back now and he is another for the shortlist.

LISIEUX is on a lengthy losing run but she took a big step back in the right direction when fourth from a tough draw at Roscommon so she's selected to build on that from this career-low mark. Jazz Dreamers, Purring Along and Rock Dandy arrive on the back of career-best efforts and they head the opposition.

Lucky Queen, Von Krolock, Singe Anglais, Jazz Dreamers and Zephron were considered; the pin landed on ABOVE IT ALL

(4) Dragon Of Malta 3.33/1, Latest win at Galway in August. That form worked out well but he was disappointing when fifth of 11 in handicap at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Enters calculations.
Galway went like clock-work and not at that level at Roscommon but drawn low; chance now.

(10) Elephant John 50/1, 66/1, last of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (17f, good) on NH debut 56 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Peter McCreery. Easy to look elsewhere.
Hard to make case on form over past year; new, local yard could always find the key.
LTO Selection:

15:15 Listowel Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FINSCEAL GO DEO may be worth a shot here. The well-bred daughter of Kingman, and star mare Finsceal Beo, has hit the crossbar a few times and there looks a race in her off this kind of mark if things drop right. She seems to be well suited by making the running and from a low draw might be able to bowl along on a track that can suit front-runners. Sirjack Thomas has been running consistently enough and having been eased another couple of pounds for his recent run at the Curragh he could be a big player in this company. Mercurial ran well when runner-up at Galway recently and is another that has to come into calculations.

SIRJACK THOMAS has bene running with real credit in much better handicaps than this so is a very appealing candidate at this level. Mercurial is interesting with cheekpieces back on, while Dragon of Malta is dangerous on his Galway win.

Plenty of these need to bounce back from a quiet run. It is hard to rule out any of them. BRAVE TROOP makes plenty of appeal

LTO Selection:

15:50 Listowel Listed 9f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

One of three Joseph O'Brien-trained contenders in the line-up, MIRAMIS gets the nod in this competitive affair. Successful in a Listed contest at Galway last month, the chestnut five-year-old showed that was no fluke by since finishing a close-up third in Group 3 company at Tipperary. Matilda Picotte was just half a length in front of the selection at the Limerick Junction venue, and she since gave the form a significant boost by winning a Group 3 at Doncaster on Sunday. Jessica Harrington also saddles three, with her Snowcapped given second preference. From the family of Snow Fairy, the Churchill three-year-old has been a model of consistency this season and should go close. As the highest rated runner in the field, Kingswood is sure to have plenty of supporters, while other leading hopes are Blues Emperor, Fleetfoot and Keep In Touch.

KINGSWOOD produced a smart effort when second in a big-field handicap at the Curragh last time and looks capable of winning at this level. Joseph O'Brien is seeking a hat-trick of wins in this contest and his Miramis, already a winner in similar company this year, is second choice ahead of recent Curragh Group 3 Fourth Snowcapped.

He has a fair bit to find on ratings but FLEETFOOT is likeable, will handle soft terrain and there should be more to come from him

Won 5.5f Navan nursery readily and respectable fifth in sales race at Naas last week.
LTO Selection:

16:25 Listowel Stakes 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Ger Lyons saddles two strong contenders, with his SPANISH FLAME getting the nod. On a mark of 94, the chestnut colt sets the standard and after finishing fourth of five in the Futurity Stakes most recently, he should appreciate this drop in class. Jack Kearney will be aboard the Vincent Gaul-owned selection and he claims a valuable 7lb. Tamrat is the other Lyons representative, with the Invincible Spirit bay successful on debut at the Curragh. Out of a half-sister to Youmzain, it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up. Old Faithful may appreciate this step-up in trip to a mile and with Oisin Murphy in the plate, he is sure to have plenty of supporters. Nor Time Nor Tide looks capable of making his presence felt, while the hat-trick seeking Asian Daze is another that warrants respect.

NOR TIME NOR TIDE posted a career-best display and made a mockery of his opening mark in the process when readily landing a Killarney nursery 26 days ago and whilst this rates tougher, he could be the way to go with the prospect of more to come. Old Faithful and Tamrat head up the dangers in what is an intriguing affair.

He faces some likeable rivals but OLD FAITHFUL (nap) could easily be lobbed in here off an effective mark of 84

17:00 Listowel Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

EARLS won this race 12 months ago and rated just 4lb higher now, he might be able to strike again. A nine-time winner, he ran a fine race to finish fourth in the Ahonoora at Galway last month, with Snapraeterea two places ahead in second. That Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding reopposes now and is given second preference. A dual Listed winner in 2021 and once rated 111, the Buratino five-year-old should go close. Bidding for his fourth win in-a-row, Cristal Clere is a leading contender with Sean Bowen again claiming a valuable 7lb. Adrian McGuinness saddles a quarter of the field and with 20 wins between them, they all warrant respect. Successful at Galway last week, Laughifuwant is another to consider, along with the Joseph O'Brien trained Just An Hour, who is fitted with cheekpieces for the first time.

LUST remains pretty low mileage for a 5-y-o and stepped up on his comeback run when finishing a good second in a Tipperary minor event 16 days ago, finding only a less exposed sort too strong. This return to 1m will hold no fears and it would come as no surprise to see him go well again. Cristal Clere in search of the 4-timer and last year's winner, Earls head up the dangers, with Snapraeterea another not out of things.

Any rain that arrives will enhance the prospects of CRISTAL CLERE and he can complete a four-timer.

17:35 Listowel Handicap 14f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Another competitive affair to round off proceedings, with the majority of these stepping up in trip to a 1m6f for the first time. One of two hat-trick seekers in the line-up, AMEERAT JUMAIRA is the selection. The progressive Australia chestnut impressed on her handicap debut at Killarney and followed-up in style at Cork. Now on a mark of 78, she might still be ahead of the assessor. Pinto Gris is also bidding for his third win in a row. The grey gelding comfortably accounted for 15 rivals on his most recent start at Leopardstown and he is sure to prove popular with punters. Van Demon and Night Glow are interesting handicap debutants in the line-up. The latter made the breakthrough at Bellewstown last month and had two subsequent winners in behind. Top-weight Esquiline is another leading hope, after going down by just a neck at the Curragh last month.

EASTERN LEGEND's latest Curragh third appeals as solid form so he might be the answer to this tricky finale. The hat-trick seeking Pinot Gris hasn't looked back since fitted with cheekpieces and is second choice ahead of Willie McCreery's Night Glow, who should have more to come now handicapping on the back of last month's Bellewstown maiden success.

The handicapper had his say after PINOT GRIS romped home at Leopardstown but Gavin Cromwell's gelding can defy his revised mark

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.
