1st (2) (2.5/1 +9%) Rush Queen |
2.5/1(+9%) | (2) Rush Queen 2.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Listowel in June. Creditable fifth of 6 to Ylang Ylang in Silver Flash Stakes at Leopardstown (7.2f, good to soft, 50/1) 11 days ago. Significantly down in trip but not ruled out. Outclassed in Leopardstown Group 3 over 7f; has her chance back in trip and class. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (0.8/1 +33%) The Caribbean |
0.8/1(+33%) | (3) The Caribbean 0.8/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Fairyhouse in July. 25/1, 13¾ lengths last of 8 to Kairyu in Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh (6.3f, soft) 16 days ago. Back down in trip. Stable in good form so could bounce back. Made all at Fairyhouse (6f, good); dropped away tamely on soft ground in Curragh Group 3. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (3/1 -71%) Launch |
3/1(-71%) | (1) Launch 3/1, Fair maiden. Good third of 8 in nursery (4/1) at Cork (5f, good) 10 days ago. Holds leading form claims. Little wrong with her third in 5f nursery at Cork last time and goes on soft ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (80/1 -21%) Bofa |
80/1(-21%) | (4) Bofa 80/1, Once-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in maiden (125/1) at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) on debut 21 days ago, missing break. Significantly down in trip with more to do. Huge odds and never a factor over 1m at Killarney three weeks ago; can only be watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The fact that LAUNCH has form in soft ground could be the difference here. The US-bred filly was second in testing conditions at Cork on her debut when just collared late on over this trip. She has posted a couple of good placed efforts since, including back at the Mallow venue when third to Asean in a nursery 10 days ago. The Caribbean drops in class now having finished last in Group 3 company at the Curragh last time. That came in soft ground which would be a worry. Rush Queen is another dropping back from stakes company that has to be considered. Her last run came over seven furlongs and she should be better suited by sprint trips.
LAUNCH holds the edge on the form of her recent Cork third and can open her account at the chief expense of Rush Queen who rates a big threat. The Caribbean can't be discounted either.
It's basically a three-runner nursery and LAUNCH, who goes on the ground and has run well over this trip and track, gets the vote

1st (14) (9/1 -64%) Teddy Boy |
9/1(-64%) | (14) Teddy Boy 9/1, Twenty two runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, good second of 15 in handicap at Cork (6f, good) 10 days ago. Not taken lightly. Ground was good when he went close at Cork last time but he acts on any going. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (7.5/1 +32%) At Long Last |
7.5/1(+32%) | (5) At Long Last 7.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1, good fifth of 15 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft) 9 days ago. Needs considering. Did not seem to stay 7f at Gowran in her second handicap, good run all the same, chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (6/1 -50%) Jazzy Dancer |
6/1(-50%) | (6) Jazzy Dancer 6/1, Course winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, respectable fourth of 16 in handicap at Cork (6f, good) 10 days ago. Merits consideration. Not beaten far in fourth at Cork last time, previously ran seasonal best over 5f here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (24) (50/1 +0%) Step Back In Time |
50/1(+0%) | (24) Step Back In Time 50/1, 40/1, good eighth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (7f). Off 6 months. Cheekpieces on 1st time and not discounted. Never closer than eighth in ten appearances, lacks a recent run, cheekpieces on now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (13) (50/1 +0%) Sense Of Security |
50/1(+0%) | (13) Sense Of Security 50/1, One win from 21 Flat runs. 25/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.2f, good) 46 days ago. Must improve. Went well on soft ground on first two Irish starts, return to these conditions may suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (23) (25/1 +0%) Navorrosse |
25/1(+0%) | (23) Navorrosse 25/1, Eighth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft) 32 days ago, finishing with running left. Down in trip. Can make presence felt. Out of form at Dundalk last winter, should be better for a run at Bellewstown a month ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (16) (12/1 +25%) Eriskay |
12/1(+25%) | (16) Eriskay 12/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 20/1, respectable fourth of 19 in handicap at this C&D (good) 30 days ago, never nearer. Stable having good spell so not ruled out. Only win was at Navan as a juvenile, fair fourth last time but that was on good ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (21) (14/1 +44%) Alqabeela |
14/1(+44%) | (21) Alqabeela 14/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. Respectable fourth of 18 in handicap (11/1) at this course (8f, soft) 12 days ago. Down in trip. Ought to be in the shake-up. Good run here last time but that was over a longer trip, overall record is modest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (16/1 +52%) Coco Hill |
16/1(+52%) | (7) Coco Hill 16/1, Respectable seventh of 16 in handicap at Cork (6f, good, 14/1) 10 days ago. Can give a good account. Dual winner last autumn when trained in Britain, twice unplaced since third at Tipperary. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (20/1 -67%) Stanhope |
20/1(-67%) | (11) Stanhope 20/1, Creditable third of 19 in handicap at this C&D (good, 10/1) 30 days ago. One for the shortlist. Best Irish form has been at Navan but comes into the reckoning after C&D third a month ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (20) (8/1 +11%) Sister Lola |
8/1(+11%) | (20) Sister Lola 8/1, Thirty five runs since last win in 2021. 8/1, shaped well when fourth of 10 in handicap at Down Royal (5f, good to soft) 10 days ago, running on. Holds good claims now back up in trip. Best form is on AW, one of her better turf efforts when fourth at Down Royal ten days ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (18/1 +18%) Even Flow |
18/1(+18%) | (9) Even Flow 18/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Bit below form tenth of 16 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good, 22/1) 67 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Maiden after 17 starts, regressive in the last year, cheekpieces will need to work. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (33/1 -32%) Conversant |
33/1(-32%) | (2) Conversant 33/1, Latest win at Sligo in April. Fifth of 23 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, soft, 12/1) 86 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Looks competitive on form. Winner in testing conditions at Sligo on April, another solid display at Navan in May. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (18) (40/1 +0%) Zaghraf |
40/1(+0%) | (18) Zaghraf 40/1, First run since leaving Denis Hogan when tenth of 14 in novice hurdle (25/1) at Kilbeggan (18.3f, good to soft) 64 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time with more to do. Tailed off over hurdles on stable debut, very disappointing favourite on last Flat run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (22) (8/1 -45%) Hot Whispers |
8/1(-45%) | (22) Hot Whispers 8/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Respectable third of 16 in handicap at Cork (6f, good, 7/1) 10 days ago. Enters calculations. 17-race maiden but not a lost cause on the evidence of her first two runs for this stable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (19) (11/1 +56%) Catherine Chroi |
11/1(+56%) | (19) Catherine Chroi 11/1, 9/2, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at Cork (6f, good) 10 days ago. Not taken lightly off an easing mark. Three-time winner on AW but is now 0-27 on turf, hard to have much faith on that basis. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (12) (16/1 +20%) Eruption |
16/1(+20%) | (12) Eruption 16/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. Creditable second of 10 in handicap (9/2) at Down Royal (5f, good to soft) 10 days ago, no match for winner. In the picture. Seems to be on the verge of ending a long losing sequence but soft ground is a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (3) (50/1 -25%) Forever Dreaming |
50/1(-25%) | (3) Forever Dreaming 50/1, 8/1, creditable second of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 42 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Rod Millman. Visor on 1st time. Plenty to find on form. Signed off for Rod Millman with a Windsor second, soft ground will be a new experience. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
19th (1) (11/1 +39%) Pretty Boy Floyd |
11/1(+39%) | (1) Pretty Boy Floyd 11/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. 9/2, good second of 13 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good) 14 days ago. Needs considering. Has tended to show his best form at the Curragh and has been inconsistent this season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
20th (10) (80/1 -471%) Gidwa |
80/1(-471%) | (10) Gidwa 80/1, 66/1, fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Killarney (8.2f, good) 19 days ago. Back down in trip. Chance if rediscovering old form. Three-time AW winner, stable appears to have a much better chance with Stanhope. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
21st (4) (80/1 +20%) Ledger |
80/1(+20%) | (4) Ledger 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1 and hooded for 1st time, last of 14 in handicap at Down Royal (7f, good) 45 days ago. Difficult ask. Fairly modest Dundalk form last winter, struggled at Down Royal on first run after a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
22nd (15) (28/1 -211%) Zig Zag Zyggy |
28/1(-211%) | (15) Zig Zag Zyggy 28/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Bellewstown in July. 9/2, ninth of 10 in handicap at Down Royal (5f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Availed of reduced rating to win at Bellewstown, in rear off this mark at Down Royal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
23rd (8) (80/1 -100%) Wild Eyed Girl |
80/1(-100%) | (8) Wild Eyed Girl 80/1, Only fifth of 6 in maiden (25/1) at Tipperary (5f, good) 69 days ago. Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Generally modest form since showing some ability as a juvenile, chance is not obvious. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
24th (17) (25/1 -25%) Peerless |
25/1(-25%) | (17) Peerless 25/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap (13/2) at Down Royal (5f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Chance on old form. Beaten 7l when second in 18-runner event at Fairyhouse, trouble in running at Down Royal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
PRETTY BOY FLOYD has fallen a nice bit in the weights and ran much better when second over in Ayr a fortnight ago. He handles this kind of ground and having only gone up a pound for his recent effort he looks capable of getting back in the winners' enclosure now. Another veteran, Teddy Boy, has been knocking on the door and was just denied at Cork last time when running on strongly late on. He went up 5lb for that effort but looks in a good place and is capable of running a big race here. Eruption has been second on her last couple of outings and is another that has to come into consideration in a typically tricky looking sprint.
This looks wide open so at the likely odds it is worth siding with SISTER LOLA who comes here on the back of a promising fourth at Down Royal and will be suited by reverting to a longer trip. Navorrosse also caught the eye on her most recent start when eighth at Bellewstown and is next on the list, with Catherine Chroi another to consider now the handicapper is showing some respite.
The shorter trip may suit AT LONG LAST who was prominent for a long way over 7f at Gowran on her second handicap start

1st (1) (1.38/1 +39%) Craft Irish |
1.38/1(+39%) | (1) Craft Irish 1.38/1, 11/1 and tongue strap on for first time, bit below form 3¾ lengths fourth of 10 to Clounmacon in listed race at this C&D (soft) 12 days ago. Big player dropped markedly in class. Two good runs over C&D this term including latest fourth in Listed race on soft ground. |

2nd (4) (3.33/1 -21%) Wave Machine |
3.33/1(-21%) | (4) Wave Machine 3.33/1, C&D winner. Good third of 15 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 11/1) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. One to consider. Birdcatcher Nursery winner over C&D and now 2lb lower; back to form when third here latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (12/1 -140%) Sioux Spirit |
12/1(-140%) | (2) Sioux Spirit 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in June. 9¾ lengths ninth of 10 to Clounmacon in listed race at this C&D (soft, 33/1) 12 days ago. This a more realistic assignment. Popped up at 16s in C&D handicap in June; well beaten back here since and ground a worry. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (18/1 -13%) Siesta Beach |
18/1(-13%) | (5) Siesta Beach 18/1, C&D winner. 28/1 and blinkered for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, soft) 12 days ago. Well beaten over 7f here on first run for over a year and hard to know where she's at. |

5th (3) (7/1 -27%) Ostraka |
7/1(-27%) | (3) Ostraka 7/1, Winner at the Curragh in May. 11/4, fourth of 6 in minor event at Fairyhouse (6f, good to firm) 59 days ago. Yard in good form. Makes handicap debut. Curragh maiden winner given time to mature after Fairyhouse fourth; dam won on soft. |

8.5/1(-6%) | (6) Arthur's Victory 8.5/1, Latest win at Southwell in January. 11/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Gowran (8f, soft) 9 days ago. Down in trip. Not really been shaping like a win is in the offing; first time over a trip this short. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (6/1 +40%) Shimmerz |
6/1(+40%) | (7) Shimmerz 6/1, Winner at the Curragh in May. Bit below form eighth of 16 in handicap (8/1) at Fairyhouse (7f, good) 26 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Shock winner over 7f (soft) at Curragh in May; stiff 6f should be okay; 3lb wrong; hooded. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
There may be more to come from OSTRAKA on just her third start. The daughter of Profitable and smart sprinter Ostatnia won on her debut at the Curragh before finishing fourth in a hot conditions race won by Tango Flare at Fairyhouse a fortnight later. She was surrounded by some decent types that day and the winner has gone on to run well in stakes company since. This is softer ground for Ostraka but her mother handled it which would be encouraging. Craft Irish ran really well to finish fourth in listed company on her last visit here and having been left unchanged by the handicapper she has a big shout back in a lower grade now. Wave Machine has run well on her last couple of visits here and could be place material.
CRAFT IRISH and Sioux Spirit both dip markedly in class having contested a listed race over C&D last time, with marginal preference for the former given the mark she's dropped to. Wave Machine is another to consider.
The top weight Craft Irish and Wave Machine have good course form but the unexposed OSTRAKA (nap) looks on a decent mark

1st (9) (1.88/1 +32%) Katola |
1.88/1(+32%) | (9) Katola 1.88/1, Awtaad filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 2-y-o 1m winner Katiba and 13f winner Kazakdaria. Stable in good form and she's a newcomer of extreme interest. Half-sister to 3 winners, one of which won over 1m on debut at two; rerouted from Galway. |

2nd (14) (3.5/1 -17%) Water Nymph |
3.5/1(-17%) | (14) Water Nymph 3.5/1, Fair filly. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. Below form third of 11 in maiden (9/2) at this C&D (good to firm) 40 days ago. Sets the standard. Remote third to useful winner over C&D in June; exposed but will handle the ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (11/1 -57%) Dumb Love |
11/1(-57%) | (5) Dumb Love 11/1, Twice-raced filly. Fourth of 10 in maiden (11/4) at Gowran (8f, soft) 9 days ago. That was a shade disappointing given promise of her debut but she remains open to progress. Nice debut at Killarney and more was expected at Gowran (11-4) but was well held on soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (50/1 -52%) Awqaat |
50/1(-52%) | (1) Awqaat 50/1, Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 10 in maiden (66/1) at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 20 days ago, not knocked about. Ran okay on second start when not beaten far in Killarney maiden last month. |

5th (7) (22/1 +12%) Fiver Friday |
22/1(+12%) | (7) Fiver Friday 22/1, Lightly-raced filly. 33/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Down Royal (10.3f, good) 44 days ago. Back down in trip. Third of 7 behind useful types over 1m2f here on debut but nowhere near that form since. |

6th (2) (10/1 +29%) Indigo Five |
10/1(+29%) | (2) Indigo Five 10/1, Twice-raced filly. 40/1, first run since leaving Patrick T. Foley when fourth of 10 in maiden at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 20 days ago, nearest finish. Ran well on yard/seasonal debut when beaten just over a length at Killarney; holds Awqaat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (66/1 +47%) Irish Rumour |
66/1(+47%) | (8) Irish Rumour 66/1, Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 11 in maiden at Roscommon (7.3f, good to soft, 100/1) 34 days ago. Big prices when beaten roughly a dozen lengths both starts over 7f; one for handicaps. |

8th (6) (1.75/1 -7%) Emotivo |
1.75/1(-7%) | (6) Emotivo 1.75/1, Lightly-raced filly. Creditable third of 16 in maiden (6/1) at Limerick (8f, good) 45 days ago. Best run was seasonal debut third to subsequent Group 3 winner over C&D (heavy). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (100/1 -25%) Beauparc |
100/1(-25%) | (4) Beauparc 100/1, 40/1, eighth of 11 in maiden at Galway (7f, soft) on debut 6 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Ran a nice enough race when beaten 12l at Galway last week but will likely need more time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (80/1 -100%) Wantoplantatree |
80/1(-100%) | (13) Wantoplantatree 80/1, Twice-raced filly. Hooded for 1st time, eighth of 14 in minor event at Southwell (7.1f, 7/2), left with lot to do. Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving Roger Varian. Showed promise on debut for Roger Varian last year; picked up for small money last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (250/1 -100%) Nancy Angel |
250/1(-100%) | (10) Nancy Angel 250/1, Lightly-raced filly. 66/1, last of 9 in nursery at Brighton (6f, good to soft). Off 11 months. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Richard Hannon. Very modest form in five starts for Richard Hannon; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (12) (150/1 -200%) Vivezza |
150/1(-200%) | (12) Vivezza 150/1, Tenth of 11 in maiden (100/1) at the Curragh (7f, soft) on debut 16 days ago. 100-1, showed nothing on last month's Curragh debut over 7f. |

13th (11) (80/1 -60%) Perfect Mirage |
80/1(-60%) | (11) Perfect Mirage 80/1, Oasis Dream filly. Dam, 1¼m winner who stayed 12.5f, half-sister to very smart winner up to 1¼m Neatico. Homebred is second foal of 1m2f winner who is half-sister to German 1m2f Group 1 winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (3) (125/1 -89%) Star Of Freya |
125/1(-89%) | (3) Star Of Freya 125/1, 33/1, ninth of 12 in maiden at Cork (6f, good) on debut 10 days ago. Significantly up in trip. 33s, prominent but keen and weakened when beaten 10l over 6f at Cork. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The well-bred WATER NYMPH may be able to gain valuable brackets here. The Saxon Warrior filly is out of a full-sister to High Chaparral and has some solid maiden form in the book. She was third to easy winner Eternal Silence on her last visit here in late June and doesn't face anything of that quality now. The handicapper says she has a couple of pounds to find with the 80-rated Emotivo who has been placed twice from five runs and was a solid third at Limerick on her last outing. Fiver Friday was well held in handicap company last time but could be given a chance on previous maiden form.
KATOLA rather leaps off the page given her pedigree and representing a yard in excellent form, a winning debut would come as no surprise. Water Nymph and Dumb Love could be the chief threats.
A mark of 80 is the benchmark so INDIGO FIVE needs to take a fair step forward from her promising fourth at Killarney but maybe she can

Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, won 16-runner handicap at Royal Ascot (14.2f, good, evens) 48 days ago, impressively. Clearly very talented. Very smart hurdler was wildly impressive off mark of 101 in 1m6f Royal Ascot handicap. |

2nd (8) (3.33/1 +45%) Valiant King |
3.33/1(+45%) | (8) Valiant King 3.33/1, Winner at Navan in May. Very good second of 19 in handicap at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm, 7/1) 46 days ago, finishing well. Clearly going the right way. Touched off by subsequent Group 3 winner in Royal Ascot handicap; capable of more progress. |

3rd (6) (6.5/1 +13%) Peking Opera |
6.5/1(+13%) | (6) Peking Opera 6.5/1, Useful colt. 1 win from 3 runs this year. 6¾ lengths seventh of 8 to Feed The Flame in Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp (11.9f, good, 26/1) 24 days ago. This is easier. Won Navan Listed contest (1m5f, soft) on reappearance but well held in Group 1s last twice. |

Nineteen runs since last win in 2019. 40/1, 5 lengths fourth of 6 to Hamish in Ormonde Stakes at Chester (13.4f, heavy) 88 days ago, missing break. Regular in this type of contest and runs this track well but would be a surprise winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (22/1 +0%) Pivotal Trigger |
22/1(+0%) | (7) Pivotal Trigger 22/1, Useful colt. 1 win from 1 run this year. 29/1, creditable 8¾ lengths sixth of 20 to Fantastic Moon in Deutsches Derby at Hamburg (11.9f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Beaten 9l in German Derby where he didn't quite get home over this trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (40/1 -82%) Safecracker |
40/1(-82%) | (2) Safecracker 40/1, Useful gelding. 15/2, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at the Curragh (12f, good to firm) 36 days ago, keeping on well. This asks a different question. Consistent in premier handicaps and richly deserved his Curragh win; first stakes race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (28/1 -40%) Gooloogong |
28/1(-40%) | (5) Gooloogong 28/1, 8/1, 14½ lengths seventh of 9 to Emily Dickinson in Curragh Cup at the Curragh (14f, soft) 16 days ago. This another stiff task but he's in excellent hands and is unexposed. Well beaten in Group 2 Curragh Cup over 1m6f; won't mind the ground but has a lot to find. |

VAUBAN looks the one to beat here off his new rating of 114. The French-bred was a revelation when switched back to the Flat at Royal Ascot, running out a highly impressive winner of the Copper Horse Handicap. The classy hurdler is versatile ground-wise and this looks a nice tune-up for some big targets later in the season. Layfayette looks the danger on official ratings and steps back up in trip here having been a cosy winner of a listed race at Limerick over a mile-and-a-half on his penultimate start. Derby fourth Peking Opera is still relatively unexposed and it will be interesting to see how he performs against his elders. That form has taken a couple of knocks since and the fifth horse, Up And Under, was beaten in a Galway maiden the other day.
Having established himself as a high-class hurdler, VAUBAN turned a Royal Ascot handicap into a one-sided affair back on the level and his claims are fairly obvious on these terms. Valiant King is a 3-y-o on the up so demands respect, along with Layfayette.
Given the striking manner of his win at Royal Ascot, VAUBAN is hard to oppose but Layfayette and Valiant King are respected foes

12/1(+25%) | (18) Glamora 12/1, 7/1, second of 14 in maiden at Gowran (7f, soft) 9 days ago, no match for winner. Improving with each run but needs to find plenty more following Gowran second. |

7/1(+50%) | (4) Kortez Bay 7/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 18 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good, 9/1) 38 days ago, slowly away. May well do better. Looks capable of maiden success but likely to find a few too good here. |

6th (11) (10/1 +17%) Innvincible Friend |
10/1(+17%) | (11) Innvincible Friend 10/1, Fair colt. Winner at Chester in June. Good 1¼ lengths second of 7 to Golden Trick in minor event (11/4) at Chester (6.1f, soft) 24 days ago.

4/1(+33%) | (16) That's For Sure 4/1, Promising type. 1 win from 2 runs this year. 7/1, won 10-runner minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, good) 30 days ago by head from Jungle Mate, staying on well. Yard in good form. Worthy of serious respect. Stepped up from an initial run when holding off Jungle Mate at Carlisle, 4lb worse off. |

13th (8) (11/1 -144%) Simplexity |
11/1(-144%) | (8) Simplexity 11/1, Caught the eye when fourth of 11 in novice event at this C&D (good) on debut 30 days ago, slowly away but staying on nicely under a considerate ride. Open to lots of progress. Ran on well when apprentice-ridden over C&D first time out, improvement on the cards now. |

80/1(+0%) | (19) Little Miss Peppi 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. Second of 3 in novice event (7/4) at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Second in a three-runner 5f contest at Hamiton, faces a very different challenge now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A strong English presence and GOLDEN TRICK may prove best. The Galileo Gold colt took a while to find his feet around Chester last month but was nicely on top close home when easing down to record a length-and-a-quarter success. There looks to be plenty more to come from him and a straight course should suit better. Jungle Mate is 4lb better off for a head defeat by That's For Sure at Carlisle last time and may be able to turn the tables on that rival now. Vanity Pays wasn't disgraced when fifth in listed company here 12 days ago and may be best of the home team. Paddy Twomey fits her with a visor now and she looks to have the ability to be a big player.
Lots to consider in this but SIMPLEXITY showed a lot to work on when fourth in a C&D novice a month ago and it would come as no surprise were he to leave that form well behind. British-raiders Jungle Mate and That's For Sure are just a couple of potential threats.
The 5f trip looked too sharp for VANITY PAYS in a Listed race here 12 days ago and she can uphold form with Brighter

1st (10) (11/1 -69%) Golden Spangle |
11/1(-69%) | (10) Golden Spangle 11/1, Career best when winning 10-runner maiden (9/2) at Down Royal (10.3f, good to soft) 10 days ago, just holding on. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs considering. Down Royal maiden winner on the 13th start of her career, generally reliable filly. |

2nd (8) (3.5/1 -27%) Turbulence |
3.5/1(-27%) | (8) Turbulence 3.5/1, 10/3, didn't enjoy the best of runs from 2f out when good 1¼ lengths fourth of 15 to Church Mountain in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Back up in trip. Expected to be bang there off the same mark. Did not get a clear run when fourth to Church Mountain at Killarney, good prospects now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (20/1 -67%) Luke Short |
20/1(-67%) | (7) Luke Short 20/1, Course winner. Respectable third of 16 in novice hurdle (9/4) at Punchestown (16.2f, good). Off 14 months. Significantly up in trip. Stable having good spell so can't be ruled out. Good third over hurdles when last seen 15 months ago; out of form on Flat prior to that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (19) (25/1 -25%) Magic Charm |
25/1(-25%) | (19) Magic Charm 25/1, Course winner. Creditable fifth of 16 in handicap (8/1) at Gowran (9.5f, soft) 9 days ago. One win from 25 Flat runs, however. RESERVE. Third reserve, mixed form this season, up against it from 7lb out of the handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (13) (11/1 +8%) Kitty Mcfee |
11/1(+8%) | (13) Kitty Mcfee 11/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 14 in maiden (28/1) at Dundalk (10.7f) 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut with more required. Enough merit in her runs in maidens to suggest she could feature in her first handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (20/1 +20%) Any Dream Will Do |
20/1(+20%) | (2) Any Dream Will Do 20/1, 13¾ lengths tenth of 11 to Indian Wish in listed race (100/1) at Killarney (8.2f, good) 19 days ago. Back up in trip. Can give a good account. Out of her depth in a Listed race at Killarney, sole win was obtained off a 4lb lower mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (18/1 +10%) Je T'ai Porte |
18/1(+10%) | (6) Je T'ai Porte 18/1, Fifth of 6 in handicap at Tramore (12f, good to soft, 7/1) 27 days ago, doing too much too soon. Merits consideration. Both Flat wins at Dundalk, also a winning hurdler, Flat form on turf not very convincing. |

8th (9) (40/1 +39%) Global Energy |
40/1(+39%) | (9) Global Energy 40/1, 66/1, last of 13 in handicap at Down Royal (12.8f, good to soft). Off 10 months with work to do. Early-season winner at Limerick last year, ended the campaign on a low note. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (10/1 -25%) Church Mountain |
10/1(-25%) | (3) Church Mountain 10/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. 8/1, career best when winning 15-runner handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 20 days ago, well on top finish. Up in trip and well in the mix. Won at Killarney despite hanging to the right, not certain to uphold form with Turbulence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (4/1 +0%) Mr Mills |
4/1(+0%) | (14) Mr Mills 4/1, Latest win at Navan in July. 10/3, good third of 16 in handicap at Gowran (9.5f, soft) 9 days ago, never nearer. Can make presence felt. Went up 8lb for Navan win, slow start proved costly when third at Gowran, leading chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (15) (5/1 +55%) Spring Evening |
5/1(+55%) | (15) Spring Evening 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Fourth of 11 in juvenile hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good, 4/1) on NH debut 32 days ago. Fair on the Flat, so not discounted on his handicap debut. Not beaten far in fourth in a juvenile hurdle last time, opening mark looks a bit high. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (5) (14/1 +36%) Team Of Firsts |
14/1(+36%) | (5) Team Of Firsts 14/1, C&D winner. Eighth of 10 in handicap (28/1) at Down Royal (10.3f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Chance on old form. Nothing of much note in his form since heavy-ground C&D win in 2021, Colin Keane booked. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (4) (7.5/1 +46%) Kodiac Prince |
7.5/1(+46%) | (4) Kodiac Prince 7.5/1, Course winner. Latest win at the Curragh in June. Bit below form tenth of 16 in handicap (18/1) at Galway (7f, soft) 6 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Significantly back up in trip so not dismissed. Two wins during a fine spell of form this season, out of the money at Killarney and Galway. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (17) (28/1 -40%) Chilean |
28/1(-40%) | (17) Chilean 28/1, Twenty two runs since last win in 2018. 10/1, respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (12.1f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not taken lightly. RESERVE. First reserve, place chance on the form he showed at Leopardstown three starts ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (16) (22/1 +12%) Fairytale Princess |
22/1(+12%) | (16) Fairytale Princess 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below form tenth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (12.8f, good to soft, 7/1) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Needs to improve considerably judging by her handicap debut in a 1m5f race at Leopardstown. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (12) (66/1 +0%) Moon Over Claddagh |
66/1(+0%) | (12) Moon Over Claddagh 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, last of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (15f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Down in trip with lots to find. Dropped in trip after a poor run over 1m7f in his first handicap, best watched for now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
TURBULENCE didn't get the clearest of passages when sent to post favourite on his last outing at Killarney and may be able to get compensation now. The Night Of Thunder gelding had to wait for a gap before staying on to finish fourth to Church Mountain. Going a bit further should suit now. He is now 4lb better off with the winner who could also find a bit of improvement at this trip. Golden Spangle gained a breakthrough success at Down Royal last time and is on a competitive looking mark back in handicap company. She is fitted with cheekpieces now.
Lots with chances but TURBULENCE didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth to Church Mountain at Killarney so can resume winning ways off the same mark. Michael O'Callaghan's 5-y-o rates the chief threat despite taking a 4 lb rise for that success, with in-form duo Mr Mills and Golden Spangle both in the mix too in an open handicap.
With a clear run TURBULENCE would have finished closer to Church Mountain at Killarney and he is tipped to reverse that form now

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.
