2.5/1(+50%) | (6) West Of Wichita 2.5/1, Lightly-raced filly. Good second of 9 in maiden at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft, 9/4) 9 days ago. Merits respect. Narrowly beaten over this trip at Bellewstown on her fourth start, experience an asset. |

4th (8) (50/1 +0%) Sanshiro |
50/1(+0%) | (8) Sanshiro 50/1, Twice-raced gelding. Tenth of 17 in maiden (40/1) at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Hard to make a case for. Trainer runs four in this race including two with placed form who have more obvious claims. |

10/1(+17%) | (14) Answer Me Nay 10/1, Foaled April 12. €9,000 yearling, Ten Sovereigns filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 7f winner Aussie View and useful 7f winner Queen's Course. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 5f/6f winner). Interesting newcomer. Dam was a speedy sort in Britain and won a 6f Irish Group 3 before her export to Denmark. |

2.5/1(+29%) | (11) Clonmacash 2.5/1, Twice-raced colt. Third of 9 in maiden at Down Royal (5f, good, 25/1) 22 days ago. Likely to be on the premises. Showed promise at Down Royal despite being hampered early and getting unbalanced late. |

28/1(+58%) | (15) Call Me Culann 28/1, Foaled February 25. €1,000 yearling, resold €1,000 yearling, Soldier's Call filly. Dam unraced. Not an obvious sort on paper. First foal, dam an unraced half-sister to winners Plunkett and Centrifolia. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||

11/1(+67%) | (9) Alabama Calling 11/1, Foaled March 15. 6,000 gns foal, 15,000 gns yearling, Soldier's Call filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including winner up to 7f Duesenberg and 9f winner Macho Guest. Makes some appeal on paper. Half-sister to winners including one who won first time out for Richard Fahey. |

80/1(-60%) | (5) Strong Possibility 80/1, Twice-raced filly. Last of 9 in maiden (20/1) at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 9 days ago. From a top stable but nothing yet to suggest any sort of chance in maiden company. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Recent Curragh runner-up CHANDIGAH can get off the mark at the third time of asking. The Darren Bunyan-trained colt started off over 7f but appeared more suited to being dropped back in trip last time. He has another furlong less to travel now but given the stiff nature of this track, it could prove ideal for the son of Churchill. Kieran Cotter has had a few juvenile winners already this term and Ocean Baroque looks capable of getting involved. The Caravaggio gelding has shaped well on all three starts, including over course and distance last time. West Of Wichita ran her best race to date when dropped back to this trip at Bellewstown earlier this month. A reproduction would see the Kevin Coleman-trained filly go close.
CHANDIGAH tooked a marked step forward from his debut when runner-up to a promising sort at the Curragh recently and probably won't need to improve again to go one better. West of Wichita and Clonmacash look the chief dangers.
Darren Bunyan has four runners here and can collect with CHANDIGAH whose 66-1 second of 18 at the Curragh was a very pleasing effort

1st (14) (6.5/1 +46%) Shoebox King |
6.5/1(+46%) | (14) Shoebox King 6.5/1, One win from 21 Flat runs. 9/2, below form fourth of 12 in handicap at Chester (5.1f, good) 15 days ago. Blinkers on first time. Good effort when fourth at Chester last time, needs to find extra in first-time blinkers. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (20/1 +9%) Tai Sing Yeh |
20/1(+9%) | (5) Tai Sing Yeh 20/1, C&D winner. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft, 8/1) 9 days ago. Ten-time winner, not quite at his best on his last two starts but takes his racing well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (15) (5/1 +50%) Sosallycanwait |
5/1(+50%) | (15) Sosallycanwait 5/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. Creditable sixth of 15 in handicap (5/1) at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Can make presence felt. Longstanding maiden was placed twice last month, another respectable run at Bellewstown. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (6.5/1 +19%) Nordic Passage |
6.5/1(+19%) | (11) Nordic Passage 6.5/1, Twenty three runs since last win in 2020. Creditable seventh of 16 in handicap (8/1) at Tipperary (5f, good) 10 days ago, denied a clear run. Lurks on a very dangerous mark. On a long losing run, recent Tipperary showing provides mild encouragement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (40/1 -186%) Coolcalmncollected |
40/1(-186%) | (6) Coolcalmncollected 40/1, Won twice at Dundalk to end 2022 but found good run of form coming to a halt when fourth of 7 in minor event at Dundalk (6f, 4/1). Off 169 days. Progressive in winning two nurseries at Dundalk last year, encouraging jockey booking. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (6/1 +29%) Greek Flower |
6/1(+29%) | (7) Greek Flower 6/1, 5/1, respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Maiden has been placed in five of her ten starts, may improve a little with cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (20) (12/1 +57%) Tammany Hall |
12/1(+57%) | (20) Tammany Hall 12/1, C&D winner. One win from 31 Flat runs. Twenty six runs since last win in 2020. Bit below form seventh of 19 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good, 7/1) 7 days ago. Competing from 7lb out of the handicap, faces a very stiff task in the circumstances. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (6/1 +63%) Maggie Mcgrath |
6/1(+63%) | (8) Maggie Mcgrath 6/1, Fourth of 6 in minor event at Tipperary (5f, good, 28/1) 10 days ago. Makes handicap debut and mark asks for more. Coped quite well with a stiff task at Tipperary last week, interesting in first handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (66/1 -230%) Storm Eric |
66/1(-230%) | (12) Storm Eric 66/1, Winner at Dundalk in April. Tenth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.2f, good, 16/1) 23 days ago, merely closing up late. Significantly down in trip. Very hard to make a case for. Won over 7f at Dundalk in April, first time over this trip which may prove inadequate. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (7/1 -40%) Inishmot Prince |
7/1(-40%) | (10) Inishmot Prince 7/1, 7/2, third of 5 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Down to a good mark and strongly-run 5f will help his cause kept to this trip. All five wins have come on AW, third in a five-runner contest at Bellewstown nine days ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (4) (50/1 -257%) Army Of India |
50/1(-257%) | (4) Army Of India 50/1, Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 9/2). Off 176 days. First run for yard after leaving Julie Camacho. Three-time winner in Britain including twice at two, has competed well off higher marks. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (17) (14/1 +36%) Gallow Hill |
14/1(+36%) | (17) Gallow Hill 14/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Below form seventh of 18 in handicap (5/2) at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 44 days ago. Others more persuasive. Placed only once from 16 outings, 3lb out of the handicap, others much preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (13) (10/1 +17%) Pretty Smart |
10/1(+17%) | (13) Pretty Smart 10/1, C&D winner. Respectable 2½ lengths fifth of 19 to Collective Power in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 18/1) 34 days ago. Enters calculations. Encouraging fifth over C&D last month, may be on the point of hitting form again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (19) (66/1 -32%) Sin E Shekells |
66/1(-32%) | (19) Sin E Shekells 66/1, Remains a maiden after 36 Flat runs. 28/1, seventh of 15 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Still a maiden after 36 starts, little apparent chance from 7lb out of the handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (18) (100/1 -150%) Tynan |
100/1(-150%) | (18) Tynan 100/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 11/2). Off 6 months. Best run when second at Dundalk last winter, lacks a recent run, 3lb out of the handicap. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
LITTLE QUEENIE showed her appreciation for the step back into handicap company when regaining the winning thread at Naas last week. She has been raised 6lb but has been competitive off this sort of mark in the past and can complete a quickfire double. Collective Power was a winner here last month and the hike he received for that comfortable success is more than offset by his capable apprentice jockey taking over in the saddle. Greek Flower has run well in a couple of much better contests on her last two starts, so the John Feane-trained filly will appreciate this easier grade. She also wears first-time cheekpieces in her bid to gain the first win of her career.
ARNHEIM made a very pleasing start for his new yard when third at Down Royal 3 weeks ago and fancied to build on that, he could be the answer to this tricky puzzle. Inishmot Prince is likely to be staying on kept to 5f, with Nordic Passage another to consider.
It may pay to take a chance on PRETTY SMART who is 12lb below last season's highest mark and has hinted at a return to form

1st (8) (1.62/1 +46%) Freedom Falls |
1.62/1(+46%) | (8) Freedom Falls 1.62/1, Fair filly. Disappointed the last twice but tried in cheekpieces now and will be dangerous if back in same form as her Listowel return. Has finished in rear in two handicap outings, reasonable credentials on last year's form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (5/1 +29%) Rebecca's Girl |
5/1(+29%) | (10) Rebecca's Girl 5/1, Twice-raced filly. 8/1, seventh of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (8f). Off 141 days. Back down in trip. First run for yard after leaving John Patrick Murtagh. Has shown some ability in two mid-field outings at Dundalk, champion jockey booked. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (3/1 -20%) Paradise Perfect |
3/1(-20%) | (5) Paradise Perfect 3/1, Clearly wasn't right over longer trip at the Curragh latest and has the form to be a serious contender back sprinting here. Handicap debut at the Curragh was far too bad to be true, solid chance on overall form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (14/1 +0%) Brookie Cookie |
14/1(+0%) | (7) Brookie Cookie 14/1, Once-raced filly. Fifth of 8 in maiden at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft, 50/1) on debut 8 days ago. Improvement required. Slowly away and ran green on debut at Bellewstown, needs to find plenty of improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (11/1 +21%) Smooth Sky |
11/1(+21%) | (6) Smooth Sky 11/1, Smooth Daddy gelding. Dam 5f winner. Wears cheekpieces. Dam won over 5f, cheekpieces fitted for debut, could feature now with top rider booked. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (150/1 +0%) Lough Alina |
150/1(+0%) | (4) Lough Alina 150/1, Twice-raced mare. 150/1, last of 9 in maiden at Down Royal (12.8f, good) 21 days ago, very slowly away. Significantly down in trip. Has failed to finish in front of a single opponent in races at Fairyhouse and Down Royal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (16/1 +0%) Jackie Robinson |
16/1(+0%) | (2) Jackie Robinson 16/1, €11,500 yearling, Fascinating Rock gelding. Dam 6f winner (including at 2 yrs). Newcomer by Fascinating Rock, dam won four times including three races at two. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|DQ| (3) (6/1 +67%) Lady Fox |
6/1(+67%) | (3) Lady Fox 6/1, Caravaggio filly. Dam, 1m-10.3f winner who stayed 12.5f, half-sister to Group winners in Brazil Energia Halo (1¼m) and Energia Eros (11f). First foal out of a mare with a good Brazilian pedigree, makes belated debut at four. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
PARADISE PERFECT needs to put a disappointing effort on recent handicap debut behind him but if doing so, the Willie Browne-trained colt can finally lose his maiden tag. Prior to that latest below-par run, the son of Perfect Timber had been placed in four maidens in succession. With nothing out of the ordinary amongst those with racecourse form, his biggest danger may well come from a debutant. Andy Oliver is well adept at readying one for its first run so, almost by default, his Smooth Sky is put forward as a live contender. The fact the son of Smooth Daddy is already gelded and wears first-time cheekpieces tempers confidence somewhat. The four-year-old Wooden Head shaped well enough on his belated debut at Cork to suggest he has a future.
There should be more to come from WOODEN HEAD, who is from an excellent family and showed ability on her debut at Cork in May. Paradise Perfect and Freedom Falls look the likeliest dangers.
If forgiven a dismal run on his handicap debut at the Curragh, PARADISE PERFECT has credentials for minor success based on maiden form

1st (2) (4.5/1 +55%) The Snapper |
4.5/1(+55%) | (2) The Snapper 4.5/1, Winner at Cork in April. 10/1, bit below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f) 3 days ago, weakening final 1f. Enters calculations back on turf. Unplaced at Dundalk three days ago, better judged on previous Listowel second. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6.5/1 +7%) Parting Glass |
6.5/1(+7%) | (1) Parting Glass 6.5/1, Winner here (5f) in May. Fifth of 6 in minor event at Tipperary (5f, good, 12/1) 10 days ago. Return to handicaps rates a plus and he's not out of things. C&D winner three starts ago, faced a stiff task in a conditions race at Tipperary. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (50/1 +0%) Es Vedra |
50/1(+0%) | (6) Es Vedra 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 11 in maiden at Naas (8f, good to firm, 50/1) 17 days ago. Down in trip. Makes handicap debut. Does not make any significant appeal on the evidence of three maiden runs. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (22) (14/1 +13%) My Girl Sioux |
14/1(+13%) | (22) My Girl Sioux 14/1, Creditable fourth of 15 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft, 14/1) 8 days ago, ridden approaching 2f out and keeping on. Each-way possibilities with a repeat. In rear in race won by Havana Notion before improved display when fourth at Bellewstown. |

5th (4) (6/1 +25%) Yuzu |
6/1(+25%) | (4) Yuzu 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/2, creditable 2¾ lengths fifth of 18 to Parting Glass in maiden at this course (5f, soft) 63 days ago. Yard having good spell. Makes handicap debut. Has work to do. Second at Sligo before fifth to Parting Glass at this venue, now 3lb better off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (14/1 +0%) Distillate |
14/1(+0%) | (11) Distillate 14/1, One win from 23 Flat runs. Creditable second of 12 in handicap (11/1) at Down Royal (5f, good) 22 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Sole win in 23 starts on AW over 7f, encouraging display over 5f at Down Royal last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (12/1 +45%) Lisieux |
12/1(+45%) | (9) Lisieux 12/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 14/1, bit below form sixth of 15 in handicap at Gowran (7f, good to soft) 27 days ago, never nearer. Beat stablemate Distillate in a 6f nursery at Naas last October, that rival preferred now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (17) (33/1 -106%) Tiktok Time |
33/1(-106%) | (17) Tiktok Time 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, last of 10 in maiden at Leopardstown (7.2f, good) 30 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Plenty to find on form. In rear at Leopardstown on final qualifying start, up against it on handicap debut. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (8/1 +43%) Coco Hill |
8/1(+43%) | (10) Coco Hill 8/1, 25/1, creditable length third of 16 to Havana Notion in handicap at Tipperary (5f, good) 10 days ago, keeping on. Rider takes off handy 5 lb now. Held by several of these on Down Royal running; much better behind Havana Notion on latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (16/1 +36%) Elmo Lincoln |
16/1(+36%) | (12) Elmo Lincoln 16/1, 12/1, tenth of 15 in handicap at Limerick (8f, good) 22 days ago. Back down in trip. Visor back on. Has failed to build on a second at Gowran in April, did not seem to stay 1m last time. |

13th (15) (12/1 +0%) Knockmore Prince |
12/1(+0%) | (15) Knockmore Prince 12/1, 20/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, below form fifteenth of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy) in April. Worth noting if the market speaks in his favour back from 3 months off. Best form over 7f/1m at Dundalk, down the field when tried over 6f in April. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (16) (28/1 +44%) Static Charge |
28/1(+44%) | (16) Static Charge 28/1, Maiden who ended last year with a respectable eighth of 14 in nursery (33/1) at Dundalk (7f) in December. Returns from 6 months off for new yard and another to monitor in the betting. Managed a couple of respectable nursery runs before losing form, new stable now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (5) (18/1 +45%) Oneplusone |
18/1(+45%) | (5) Oneplusone 18/1, First run since leaving Kevin Thomas Coleman when thirteenth of 15 in handicap (10/1) at Gowran (7f, good to soft) 27 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Jack W. Davison. Towards the rear over 7f on latest, better efforts at sprint distances, others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (8) (5/1 +17%) Havana Notion |
5/1(+17%) | (8) Havana Notion 5/1, Career best when winning 16-runner handicap (8/1) at Tipperary (5f, good) 10 days ago, always holding on. Fancied to be thereabouts again. Atoned for a series of reverses when winning at Tipperary, confidence boosted now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (21) (50/1 +0%) Calgary Mounty |
50/1(+0%) | (21) Calgary Mounty 50/1, Maiden who offered little in 9 starts last term. Gelded ahead of return but needs to show more before becoming of interest. Unplaced in nine outings, makes seasonal debut, 2lb out of the handicap. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
KNOCKMORE PRINCE has to be forgiven a modest run at the Curragh when last seen but on the balance of his earlier form, the Noel Meade-trained gelding has every chance. The bare form of his three runner-up finishes at Dundalk over the winter have been well advertised in the interim and he may not have enjoyed heavy ground on his first two turf starts since. Top-weight Parting Glass was rated 75 when winning his maiden here in May and the Fozzy Stack-trained colt can now race off 7lb lower once taking his rider's claim into account. American In Paris also catches the eye back in with her own age group having finished second against older horses at Naas recently. She, too, has the services of a promising young apprentice.
This looks wide open but PARTING GLASS ought to find this much less demanding than his latest assignment at Tipperary 10 days ago and with his rider taking off a handy 7 lb, it would come as no surprise to see him go well returned to handicap company. The Snapper, Havana Notion and Distillate head up the dangers.
Adam Caffrey takes a valuable 5lb off DISTILLATE who may confirm Down Royal form with Spirit Of Eagles and Havana Notion

1st (3) (1.88/1 +62%) Harbour Wind |
1.88/1(+62%) | (3) Harbour Wind 1.88/1, Nathaniel gelding who impressed with his attitude when making a winning debut in a Cork maiden (1m) in May. Runner-up behind a more experienced sort at Roscommon (10f) since (pair clear) and has to be of interest again. Unfancied when game winner on debut; narrowly beaten by 103-rated colt at Roscommon. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (4.5/1 +25%) Immutable |
4.5/1(+25%) | (4) Immutable 4.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Naas (8f, heavy, 11/4) 82 days ago. Up in trip. Stable in good form. Should continue to give a good account. Won 1m Naas handicap off 83 in April; first try at his trip and bit to find on ratings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (8.5/1 -155%) Nurburgring |
8.5/1(-155%) | (5) Nurburgring 8.5/1, Lightly-raced course winner. 80/1, 18½ lengths twelfth of 14 to Gregory in Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (14.2f, good) 24 days ago. Down in trip. Not taken lightly back in calmer waters. Smart form over 1m5f here first two starts; outclassed in Queen's Vase; big drop in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (5/1 -25%) Bright Legend |
5/1(-25%) | (1) Bright Legend 5/1, Zoustar colt. Much-improved from debut despite still looking rough around the edges when winning 12-runner maiden at the Curragh (10f) back in April. Absent since but he's very much the type to go on improving. Respected. Beat a smart horse in Curragh maiden over this trip on heavy ground in April. |

5th (2) (1.88/1 +53%) Dutch Gold |
1.88/1(+53%) | (2) Dutch Gold 1.88/1, Fairly useful colt. Career best when winning 8-runner maiden (3/1) at Down Royal (10.3f, good) 21 days ago, easily. That may well not prove his limit at this sort of trip. Relished step up to this trip when bolting up by 8l in Down Royal maiden. |

6th (8) (250/1 -25%) Tip The Can |
250/1(-25%) | (8) Tip The Can 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 300/1 and visored for 1st time, ninth of 11 in maiden at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 60 days ago. Up in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Easy enough to look elsewhere. No chance in this company and gets a mark after this; tongue-tie. |

7th (6) (250/1 -25%) Donadea Dreamer |
250/1(-25%) | (6) Donadea Dreamer 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Plenty to find on form. No chance in this company and gets a mark after this; cheekpieces. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HARBOUR WIND runs in first-time cheekpieces, which is a small concern, but has solid form. Out of a half-sister to Group 2-winning stayer Forgotten Rules, he was a surprise winner when making all against a better-fancied stablemate on debut but confirmed that ability when runner-up at Roscommon. The winner recently finished sixth in the German Derby and this galloping track should suit. Immutable's form is mostly on easy ground but he ran well on a sound surface on debut. He steps up in trip, though, on his first run for 82 days. Dutch Gold benefited from stepping up to this trip when winning impressively at Down Royal and while the form is nothing special, he could progress further. Nurburgring is top rated, ran well in a course Listed race in May, and while today's rider claims 7lb, was well beaten at Royal Ascot and drops markedly in distance. Endless Sunshine was a surprise winner on debut and faces a tougher task.
Despite still looking rough very rough around the edges, BRIGHT LEGEND was impressive when seeing off a now useful performer (the pair clear) at the Curragh back in April and, with the prospect of more to come, he gets the vote to follow up. Harbour Wind and Nurburgring back in calmer waters are others fancied to be in the shake up.
Second to the German Derby sixth at Roscommon, HARBOUR WIND will be hard to beat and headgear is usually a positive when used by Weld\p

1st (2) (2/1 +43%) Boher Road |
2/1(+43%) | (2) Boher Road 2/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. 16/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Cork (12f, soft) 29 days ago. Enters calculations. 1m maiden winner; only beaten 4.5l in a premier h'cap over 1m4f last time; decent chance. |

2nd (6) (1.88/1 +58%) Bringsty |
1.88/1(+58%) | (6) Bringsty 1.88/1, Latest win at Gowran in May. Good second of 14 in claimer (13/8) at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Back up in trip and in the mix. Really consistent in recent claimers over shorter and longer trips than this; respected. |

3rd (1) (7/1 +56%) Eskimo Komet |
7/1(+56%) | (1) Eskimo Komet 7/1, 28/1, bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good) 37 days ago. Chance on old form. AW winner got a big hike for running well in a Pattern race last year; mark still too high. |

4th (3) (10/1 +17%) Eighty Eight |
10/1(+17%) | (3) Eighty Eight 10/1, 16/1, 6 lengths tenth of 13 to Hasten Slowly in handicap at Naas (8f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Back up in trip. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Useful handicapper for Johnny Murtagh last year; may have needed run at Naas last time. |

5th (4) (3/1 +33%) Scott Lang |
3/1(+33%) | (4) Scott Lang 3/1, Course winner. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Limerick (12.3f, good, 17/2) 21 days ago. Still merits consideration. Good track record over 1m5f but may be outpaced by a couple of these over this trip. |

6th (5) (80/1 -21%) Rhydwyn |
80/1(-21%) | (5) Rhydwyn 80/1, 28/1, first run since leaving T. Hogan when last of 10 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft). Off 9 months. Up in trip with work to do. Formerly useful over trips up to 1m but has clearly had issues; best watched after lay-off. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HASTEN SLOWLY is 5lb higher than when winning recently and while speedily-bred, could be suited by stepping up to this distance. That Naas form is nothing outstanding but she won over 7f as a juvenile last August, which suggests she will stay middle-distances. Bringsty brings useful recent claimer form to the table and and is suited by this trip. Available, but unwanted, for 10,000 euros, 12,000 euros, 12,000 euros and 12,000 euros when running consistently well on each of his last four runs, he chased home a subsequent winner at Limerick last month and is today ridden by a good 2lb claimer. Keen-going Boher Road was well enough held in a premier handicap last month, while Mads Black Eights is capable at this level but hasn't run since February. Scott Lang would prefer further, while Eskimo Komet's rating has been affected by running well in stakes races last autumn and has plenty of weight.
HASTEN SLOWLY arrives on the back of an improved Naas success and can defy a 5 lb rise in the weights with this longer trip another plus. Bellewstown runner-up Bringsty is feared most, although Boher Road and Scott Lang are weighted to have a say too in an open handicap.
Naas winner Hasten Slowly is sure to be popular but BOHER ROAD, not beaten far in a higher grade at Cork last time, is preferred

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ST CIANANS FIRE has poor form figures but will be better suited by this distance than when a staying-on also-ran at Leopardstown in May. A three-time winner, his rating has recently slipped but he remains a fraction unexposed at this ordinary level. Qasbaz has been running well and finished ahead of Joven De Corazon and Tara Power at Bellewstown. He hasn't won for two years but has been running consistently well recently. Joven De Corazon has some form but might prefer slightly further, while Tara Power has yet to win in 18 turf attempts. The three-year-old Glyde Ranger has place claims, while Jalo is tried in a first-time tongue-tie.
Little between the principals on form so the reliable QASBAZ is taken to gain a deserved success on the back of his good Bellewstown third. Joven de Corazon and Glyde Ranger appeal as the duo to give James McAuley's 6-y-o most to do and can chase him home in that order.
The draw hasn't been kind to QAZBAZ but he's been running well enough of late to suggest that he may be able to overcome that drawback

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
STAY LOCAL met some trouble at Limerick last month and could be suited by this distance. She showed useful soft-ground handicap form last year and being by Australia and out of a well-related Lope De Vega mare, should stay. Barretstown is winless in 20 turf starts but is a dual Dundalk winner who likes this distance and ran well recently at Down Royal. Shining Aitch is held by Barretstown on April all-weather form but has been running well recently and has place claims. Maura's Gift would prefer slightly further and hasn't run since January, while Blackstone Cliff debuts for a new yard but hasn't run since winning in December. Rockview Roman was well held on two recent runs - the latest being over hurdles - but won in April and is ground-versatile. Gudrun Genberg's best run came here last October.
BARRETSTOWN is creeping back down the weights again and can take advantage. Shining Aitch and Stay Local head the dangers.
Having gone well for Dylan Browne McMonagle in 2 prior outings over C&D, SHINING AITCH may be capable of landing a first win in Ireland

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.
