1st (2) (11/10 +45%) Gorgeous Tom |
11/10(+45%) | (2) Gorgeous Tom 11/10, Thrice-raced maiden. 11/8, second of 14 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16.8f, heavy) 94 days ago. Rachael Blackmore prefers Jasko Des Dames but this 6-y-o is a very big player nonetheless. Promise behind some nice types so far including a 2nd to Caldwell Potter; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (5/1 -50%) Special Cadeau |
5/1(-50%) | (9) Special Cadeau 5/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Fourth of 6 in novice hurdle (2/1) at Navan (22.4f, heavy) 33 days ago. Back down in trip and while more is needed, he has to be of interest for the all-conquering Willie Mullins yard. Some promising efforts so far incl' 4th here on return; needs to jump better than latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (11/2 +15%) The Busy Fool |
11/2(+15%) | (12) The Busy Fool 11/2, Thrice-raced winner under Rules. Bumper winner at Thurles in October. Third of 8 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (19.8f, heavy, 5/4) 46 days ago. Claims if he copes with this drop in trip and, moreover, cuts out the jumping errors. Bumper winner and ran to similar level when 2nd at Down Royal; disappointing fav latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (13) (9/1 -157%) Touch Me Not |
9/1(-157%) | (13) Touch Me Not 9/1, Promising sort. Fourth of 16 in novice hurdle (5/2) at Thurles (16.2f, soft) 30 days ago. Should progress for top connections and he's one for the shortlist. Fell at last when about to win a point; looked in need of further both rules starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (5/2 -25%) Jasko Des Dames |
5/2(-25%) | (3) Jasko Des Dames 5/2, Promising type. 10/3, second of 22 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.7f, soft) 81 days ago. Open to improvement for top yard and he's of strong interest here. 2l ahead of Mercurey latest; testing ground fine for him and more to come. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (18) (100/1 -52%) Hardysonofdan |
100/1(-52%) | (18) Hardysonofdan 100/1, Califet gelding. Dam pulled up sole start in points. Market should point the way. Dam pulled up in a point, out of 2m hurdle winner; market support worth noting. |

7th (17) (150/1 +0%) Grann's Boy |
150/1(+0%) | (17) Grann's Boy 150/1, Fair Flat winner. Once-raced maiden over hurdles. Eighth of 14 in juvenile hurdle (22/1) at Navan (16f, heavy) on NH debut 33 days ago, not knocked about. Won off 58 on final Flat start but showed little when tailed off at Navan last month. |

33/1(-32%) | (8) Reve Inoui 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, fifth of 25 in novice hurdle at this course (15.6f, heavy) 39 days ago. That reprsented a step forward but another will be needed if he's to play a leading role. Point winner; left his rules form behind when a 15l fifth here in February; place squeak. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (250/1 -25%) Aurea Fortuna |
250/1(-25%) | (1) Aurea Fortuna 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, ninth of 20 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, soft) 18 days ago. Yard also represented by Zuzukel. Only minor ability shown in two tailed off starts so far; likely one for h'caps now. |

Laffon-Parias when sixth of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Cork (16.8f, heavy) on NH debut 116 days ago. Beaten 6l on Flat in France before low-key hurdle/yard debut when just 9-1; this is tough. |

200/1(-33%) | (11) Targa Flavio 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. 16/1, eleventh of 18 in novice hurdle at Thurles (15.9f, heavy) 19 days ago. Probably more one for handicaps in due course. Promising debut and may have found run coming too soon since; more needed though. |

200/1(-33%) | (19) Market House 200/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Once-raced maiden. 40/1, last of 20 in juvenile hurdle at Cork (16.7f, heavy) on NH debut 14 days ago. Didn't show much on the Flat and never a factor when last of 20 on hurdle bow 2 weeks ago. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A race in which trainer Henry De Bromhead appears to hold a particularly strong hand. Slight preference is for GORGEOUS TOM, who ran one of his better races to date when fourth behind the subsequent Supreme Novices' Hurdle winner here in November. The six-year-old had to settle for second behind another future Grade 1 winner at Navan next time, while Tramore may not have played to his strengths most recently. It shouldn't be long before he sheds his maiden tag. Jasko Des Dames, a winner in France, has reached the frame on both starts over hurdles since arriving in Ireland and looks the biggest danger to his stablemate. Bumper winner The Busy Fool has shown enough in two runs over flights to suggest he can get involved here.
The finish may be fought out by the Henry de Bromhead-trained duo, JASKO DES DAMES and Gorgeous Tom. The latter's form looks very solid in the context of this race and he's not passed over lightly, but Jasko Des Dames, who is the mount of stable jockey Rachael Blackmore, appears to possess the greater potential and he split a couple of useful novices when runner-up in a big-field Punchestown maiden in January. Touch Me Not is third choice ahead of Special Cadeau and The Busy Fool.
It may be worth taking on a chance on GORGEOUS TOM who chased home Caldwell Potter on his penultimate start and ran well again latest

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
THE GREAT UNKNOWN showed enough in two starts against geldings earlier in the campaign to suggest she can make it third-time lucky under Rules. Having a first outing against her own sex, the five-year-old looks well placed to make the most of the opportunity. Her biggest threat could come from stablemate Garde La Peche, who easily beat a subsequent dual hurdles winner on her sole point-to-point start and something was clearly amiss when she failed to fire on her racecourse debut at Limerick over Christmas. Former French Flat winner Got Glory is another capable of much better. The Willie Mullins-trained mare was considered smart enough to make her Irish debut in Grade 1 company last April.
The Willie Mullins-trained Got Glory is basically an unknown quantity and slight preference is for MAGIC DAWN

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
TOTO TOO has every chance of making a winning start to life with trainer Gavin Cromwell. Runner-up on his racecourse debut in a Galway bumper last August, the Ocovango gelding then won his first two outings over hurdles. Although slightly disappointing when upped in class at Cheltenham when last seen, the seven-year-old is very lightly raced and open to improvement. Stoke The Fire is difficult to assess given he has yet to receive a mark over hurdles. However, Willie Mullins would have had a multitude of options for this race, so the fact he relies on the five-year-old could be significant. Impressive Listowel winner Aeros Rock could also have more to offer, especially with connections reaching for a first-time tongue-tie.
Preference is for UNDENIABLE ALIBI, who got off the mark at Clonmel in February and remains open to further improvement. Stoke The Fire and Como Park rate the principal dangers.
A good little heat. FAULTY deserved a win which came in snug fashion at Down Royal and he can build on that. Toto Too is feared

Dreaper when respectable fourth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, soft) 32 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
VERBAL SPARRING can recover losses having held every chance when falling at the final flight at this track last month. Sent off favourite on the back of a promising runner-up effort here, he obviously has a liking for the venue. Still well handicapped relative to his mark on the Flat, the five-year-old can register a first career success. Papa Barns is also a long-standing maiden, but the Tom Dreaper-trained seven-year-old caught the eye staying on late in a better contest at Leopardstown. Ladyeze Man, who has been off the track since just being denied at Cork in October, would have to be given a serious chance if fit enough.
Preference is for COILLTE ARIS, who acquitted herself well on yard debut at Clonmel in January and has the assistance of Paul Townend. Verbal Sparring and Tell Us This head the list of dangers.
IT may be worth giving another chance to VERBAL SPARRING, a faller at the last flight at Naas on his latest start

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Recent Fairyhouse runner-up SOLLY ATTWELL can go one place better for the in-form Cian Collins yard. Having reached the frame in four of his six point-to-point starts, the six-year-old initially faced some stiff opposition in his maiden hurdles but showed a lot more on his handicap debut last time. With the benefit of that experience, he should be hard to beat, despite the large field. Jouster justified favouritism in that aforementioned race, but has work to do if he is to confirm form on these revised ratings. Nonetheless, the Gavin Cromwell-trained five-year-old has to be respected. Stealthy Tom would be a danger to all off his much lower hurdles rating if fit after an absence.
SOLLY ATTWELL was denied by Jouster at Fairyhouse last time but was strong at the finish and, on better terms, is worth a chance to reverse the form with Jack Kennnedy booked. Hillsdale is an obvious danger to the pair of them after scoring at this course last month and Stealthy Tom can't be ruled out from a significantly lower hurdles mark.
Paul Townend takes a rare outside ride on HILLSDALE who should relish this step up in trip and may be able to defy his 10lb rise

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Although disappointing in two runs since her shock Limerick win over Christmas, the William Murphy-trained AGHMOROUGH BRIDGE might be worth another chance in this ordinary contest. A three-time point-to-point winner, she is now reunited with Moira McElligott, who was on board for two of those successes between the flags. Everystep Oftheway is a maiden under both codes, but ran one of his better races when third here last March. Stepping up to this distance for the first time may well bring about further improvement in the six-year-old. Championship leader Jack Kennedy takes the ride on his brother Michael's Jeronimo De L'ouch. The five-year-old makes his handicap debut here after the mandatory three starts in maiden company.
Plenty are in with a shout. JERONIMO DE L'OUCH looks to have got in lightly for his handicap debut so Michael Kennedy's low-mileage 5-y-o gets the nod at the chief expense of Punchestown chasing fourth Everystep Oftheway who reverts to this sphere on a lenient mark. Lucy Prunella is another who can have a say now stepping into handicap company along with in-form pair Padraig Boy and Mahler Appeal.
The form of the Navan contest in which PADRAIGS BOY was fourth has worked out well and he should have a decent chance down in grade

Drumgill |
(7) (33/1 -175%)33/1(-175%) | (7) Drumgill 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 66/1, very good third of 9 in novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, heavy) 11 days ago. Switches from hurdles to bumpers. Unplaced in three bumpers; third in Limerick maiden hurdle last month but others preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
With form of his point-to-point second at Lingstown having subsequently been well advertised by the winner, OL MAN DINGLE can make a successful start to life under Rules. The Eoin Griffin-trained five-year-old was always prominent in that race, leading at the last and only losing out by a neck at the finish. Forty Coats, who won his only point-to-point start at Ballinaboola last month, also makes his Rules debut. Having his first run for Henry De Bromhead, the Diamond Boy gelding has obviously been pleasing connections at home. Although somewhat exposed after five outings, the John Ryan-trained Drumgill looks best of those with previous racecourse experience.
FORTY COATS showed plenty in a point and, having joined Henry de Bromhead he makes plenty of appeal starting out in a race that might not take much winning, acknowledging If You Let Me and Machismo may yet have more to offer.
John Gleeson is an eyecatching booking for \Ol Man Dingle\p but FORTY COATS, a point winner in February, is just preferred
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
