Ballinrobe bumper winner KALIX DELABARRIERE was too keen and made a bad mistake when starting off over hurdles in a 2m4f Leopardstown maiden. The Galiway gelding couldn't find any extra in the closing stages when runner-up to a subsequent winner on testing ground here last month and now takes a further drop in trip with a hood and tongue-tie applied for the first time. Walk On The Beach won a bumper on yielding ground in August after which connections reported that he had been jumping well at home. He is an interesting hurdling debutant but may not want the ground as testing as this. Hello Jack has been well held in both hurdle outings but has place claims again.

Willie Mullins' KALIX DELABARRIERE looked a hurdles winner in waiting when an excellent runner-up here last time so gets the vote ahead of his stablemate Road To Home who remains with potential despite running out late here last time out. Joseph O'Brien introduces an interesting sort in Walk On The Beach and this fairly useful bumper scorer needs considering for minor honours along with the unexposed Gordon Elliott-trained duo Hello Jack and Son of Anarchy.

Down in trip and with a double helping of headgear, KALIX DELABARRIERE should deliver now on his third start over hurdles.

(5) Shoda 10/3, Fairly useful Flat winner. Shaped well when third of 16 in juvenile at Limerick (2m, soft) on hurdle debut over Christmas. Should improve.

KOOL ONE has been placed behind Willie Mullins-trained winners in both starts over hurdles, including over C&D, and makes a quick reappearance after finishing second at Gowran Park last weekend behind a rival who was rated much superior to him on the Flat. Conor Maxwell's prominent racer relishes testing ground and his amateur rider is again likely to make plenty of use of him. Shoda had useful Flat form over 1m4f and made a promising jumping debut when a place behind Bacchanalian at Limerick over Christmas. She may be able to improve past her former stablemate, who had the run of the race when winning here last month but is, nonetheless, a progressive and experienced juvenile.

GOOD TO BE ALIVE ran out a comprehensive winner on his Fairyhouse debut and might be able to improve past Declan Queally's Bacchanalain, who has concede weight all round.

A 4lb penalty may not be enough to prevent BACCHANALIAN from upholding Limerick form with Shoda who rates a serious threat.

Relatively experienced novice, career-best when winning over 2m7f at Thurles last time.

Heavy ground is a concern for FLEUR IN THE PARK but he looks the one to beat. 2m7f may have stretched his stamina at Limerick last time and the six-year-old should be suited by a return to the distance, over which he was narrowly beaten in a Grade 2 at Navan. He might be flattered by that bare formline having been given a fine tactical ride but, nonetheless, looks to have a few pounds to spare if handling conditions, which he did to reasonable effect in bumpers. Course winner Joystick, who was outclassed in a Grade 1 last time, will relish conditions and may leave that run behind, while Jacob's Ladder may improve further after landing a maiden over this trip.

FLEUR IN THE PARK brings some useful form to the table and can see off last month's Navan maiden winner Jacob's Ladder in this Grade 3 contest.

With an official rating of 137 based on form in Graded races, FLEUR IN THE PARK looks clearly superior to his four rivals

A decisive winner on handicap debut at Limerick, BALKO D'ANGE made a few mistakes before being outstayed by an in-form rival over 2m3f at Punchestown last time. Philip Fenton's five-year-old, who handles heavy ground, should be suited by dropping back in trip and is open to further improvement. Despite making mistakes at the last two hurdles, Duke Of Leggagh knuckled down well to win over C&D earlier this month. The front pair drew clear of the remainder, including fifth-placed Miss Gherkin, on that occasion and better jumping can see the winner contend again. Kimy was not unfancied when second in a valuable mares' handicap at Leopardstown but her stablemate, San Aer, is more likely to handle underfoot conditions.

Plenty with chances but recent course scorer DUKE OF LEGGAGH rates just the pick of these weights so edges the vote from good Leopardstown runner-up Kimy. Balko d'Ange and Miss Gherkin both need factoring in too with Captains Nephew completing the shortlist.

Preference is for last time out C&D winner DUKE OF LEGGAGH. His 7lb rise is negated by his jockey's claim and he relishes heavy ground

With the Gavin Cromwell yard continuing to fire in the winners, WILL THE WISE could prove the horse to beat on his handicap debut. Unbeaten in a point-to-point and bumper, the six-year-old has run with credit on three of his four starts over hurdles. Runner-up on his jumping debut at Punchestown in November, he was considered good enough to contest a Grade 2 hurdle at Navan on his next start. Although finding that a bridge too far at that stage of his career, he has looked much more like the finished article in two subsequent starts. Stablemate Bridie's Beau remains of interest despite a further hike in the weights, while Cato's Revenge is another worthy of consideration for trainer Philip Rothwell.

BRIDIE'S BEAU is thriving at present and in a race without an abundance of pace, he won't be inconvenienced if this becomes a relative test of speed. He can land the hat-trick ahead of main danger and handicap debutant Will The Wise who is interesting stepping up in trip, while Heliko Conti could yet have more to offer as a staying hurdler.

A chance is taken on JERIKO DE BAUNE. He'll like the ground and if he repeats his staying on sixth at Navan he should be thereabouts

(3) Spinningayarn 1/1, Won sole start in points and followed up in a Navan bumper on Rules debut. The one to beat for top stable with an excellent record in this race.
Point winner on heavy, won a bumper on soft at Navan last month, could follow up.
LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

With plenty of chat about both the runner-up and third horse, the bumper SPINNINGAYARN won at Navan is likely to have been well above average. The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding showed real battling qualities to get back up close home to edge the verdict on that occasion and the five-year-old can book his Cheltenham ticket here by maintaining his unbeaten record. I'll Sort That benefited from a spin over hurdles before landing a Fairyhouse bumper on his second start. Although more is required now, the gelding is open to improvement. Strong Link will need to step up on previous efforts but has crucial race experience which should stand to him against more unexposed opposition in this contest.

The Gordon Elliott stable is traditionally very strong in this bumper and SPINNINGAYARN is selected to remain unbeaten. Last month's Fairyhouse winner I'll Sort That is the obvious danger.

SPINNINGAYARN is narrowly preferred. He won his point on heavy ground and he showed a good attitude when winning at Navan last month.

Although having a bit to prove having been pulled up last time, SHANNON ROYALE rates the percentage call. The Gordon Elliott-trained seven-year-old had been in excellent form prior to that lapse, stepping up on two second placed finishes to come home in front at Punchestown in December. Connections have wisely decided to claim off the top-weight here, with the excellent James Smith easing the burden by 5lb. Point-to-point winner No Flies On Him looked a smart prospect earlier in his hurdling career but failed to build on initial promise. He remains of considerable interest over fences, while Fascile Mode is another that needs to step up on previous chasing efforts but is certainly capable of getting into the mix here.

SHANNON ROYALE found his first experience of a large-field handicap chase a shock to the system in the Thyestes at Gowran and is expected to bounce back in this lesser event. Theonewedreamof resumed her progress when scoring at Punchestown and is next best ahead of Nas Na Riogh, who should make more of an impact now handicapping.

Conor Stone-Walsh's claim can compensate for the fact that THEONEWEDREAMOF (nap) is 2lb wrong. She can add to her Punchestown win

BLOOD DESTINY should appreciate returning to the minimum trip having been outstayed at Thurles on his reappearance. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding boasts some very smart novice form from last season, including a win at this track. A win here could see him book his Cheltenham ticket, where he would hold live chances in one of the handicaps. The veteran Espanito Bello loves it here but faces a stiff task if he is to record another success at his favourite track. At the same time, the 11-year-old looks the biggest threat to the Mullins contender. Rebel Gold, another in the twilight years of a successful career, might be good enough to take minor honours.

BLOOD DESTINY shaped encouragingly after 9 months off when third in a Grade 2 at Thurles and this looks a good opportunity for him to resume winning ways. Espanito Bello can follow him home.

BLOOD DESTINY is the one to beat. He will be suited by the return to 2m and heavy ground and he has rock solid novice form in the book.

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.
