1st (4) (2/13 +50%) Kala Conti |
2/13(+50%) | (4) Kala Conti 2/13, Made a winning start to her career in a hurdle at Compiegne back in May. Looks a potentially smart recruit for the Gordon Elliott team. Debuts for Gordon Elliott here and the choice of Jack Kennedy; the one to beat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (9/2 +18%) Roboreti |
9/2(+18%) | (3) Roboreti 9/2, Gleneagles gelding. Dam showed nothing in 2 starts on Flat. Interesting Flat-bred newcomer but the stable looks to have stronger contenders. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (50/1 +24%) Bravewhenineedtobe |
50/1(+24%) | (5) Bravewhenineedtobe 50/1, 25/1, fifth of 7 in juvenile hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, soft) on NH debut 8 days ago. Needs to leave that will behind. Never a factor at Down Royal last week and that looks a likely scenario here again. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The Gordon Elliott-trained KALA CONTI looks the pick of her stable's three representatives here. Winner of her only start over hurdles in her native France, the daughter of Karaktar appears to have been found a nice opportunity on her first run in this country. Stablemate Casheldale Lad caused a 33/1 upset when winning his only start to date when successful on his Flat debut for previous connections. Subsequently sold to go hurdling, as a half-brother to a black-type placed filly over jumps, he definitely has the pedigree. Roboreti catches the eye in the colours of legendary flat trainer Kevin Prendergast. Unraced to date, the very fact the son of Gleneagles has been sent out to Cullentra House to begin his career over hurdles suggests he must have been showing something at home.
Gordon Elliott will surely dominate here. Jack Kennedy is on French recruit KALA CONTI so she gets the vote ahead of Casheldale Lad, who has been acquired by Bective Stud since making a winning Flat debut at Punchestown in September.
Perhaps Sam Ewing's mount CASHELDALE LAD might prove good enough having won a Punchestown Flat maiden for Andrew Kinirons in September

1st (13) (9/4 +36%) Look To The West |
9/4(+36%) | (13) Look To The West 9/4, Westerner mare. Sister to modest hurdler Bembridge, and half-sister to bumper winner Robintheaulad. Successful on second of 2 starts in points (Apr 2022) and transferred to a powerful yard. Very interesting debutante here for Knockeen and no surprise should she get involved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (9/4 +55%) Bioluminescence |
9/4(+55%) | (4) Bioluminescence 9/4, Second of 13 in bumper at Limerick (19f, heavy, 5/4) on NH debut, no match for winner. Off 7 months. Makes hurdles debut and one of the more interesting runners. Sets a good standard on her Limerick bumper form and likely to go close here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (16/1 -14%) Instant Tendance |
16/1(-14%) | (11) Instant Tendance 16/1, Promising individual. 12/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, sixth of 16 in novice hurdle at Listowel (20f, soft) on hurdles bow 62 days ago. Open to improvement. Ran okay despite some ropey jumping in a 2m4f Listowel maiden hurdle; ground is an unknown. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (5/1 -67%) Magic Dawn |
5/1(-67%) | (14) Magic Dawn 5/1, Winner in bumper at Punchestown in December and changed hands for £185,000 after, Reportedly bled starting out for new yard in April but given plenty of time and she needs considering on hurdles bow. Draw a line through Aintree form and should be capable of a bold show on her hurdles debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (11/2 -175%) Paggane |
11/2(-175%) | (15) Paggane 11/2, Fair Flat winner, winning 7-runner maiden at Morlaix (12.9f, good). Off 17 months. First run for yard after leaving N. Clement and goes hurdling for leading NH yard. Winner in France not seen for 17 months but surprising if she was not a serious player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (17) (9/1 -13%) Sainte Baol |
9/1(-13%) | (17) Sainte Baol 9/1, €115,000 3-y-o, Saint Des Saints mare. Half-sister to fair French hurdler Poligone. Dam French hurdler/chaser (17f/2½m winner). Won sole start in Irish points in January and joined Gordon Elliott. Won her sole point for Pat Doyle; intriguing runner here but not the stable first string. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (16/1 -33%) Armed And Fabulous |
16/1(-33%) | (2) Armed And Fabulous 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 7/2, eighth of 10 in novice hurdle at Galway (16f, heavy) 21 days ago, folding. Surely has more to offer. Well beaten in two maiden hurdles for her current stable and others look more likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (100/1 -203%) Hill Rocket |
100/1(-203%) | (9) Hill Rocket 100/1, Sixth of 16 in novice hurdle at Clonmel (19.5f, heavy, 40/1) 24 days ago. More to do here after her good Clonmel run but would appear to be going the right way. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (40/1 -100%) Ashdale Flyer |
40/1(-100%) | (3) Ashdale Flyer 40/1, 14/1, sixth of 17 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 180 days ago. May well do better. Likely to improve plenty for his Punchestown debut but probably best watched this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (12) (40/1 -21%) Jekiki |
40/1(-21%) | (12) Jekiki 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Ninth of 17 in novice hurdle (33/1) at this course (20f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 64 days ago. Has failed to up hee game including on her hurdles debut here last time; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (150/1 -200%) Del Girl |
150/1(-200%) | (5) Del Girl 150/1, Mount Nelson filly. Dam (h114), 2m hurdle winner (stayed 2¾m), half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2¾m) Like A Hurricane. Comes from a good staying family but likely best watched on this debut run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (16) (100/1 -400%) River Robe |
100/1(-400%) | (16) River Robe 100/1, Poor hurdler. Bit below form fifth of 15 in novice hurdle at Thurles (16.1f, soft, 9/1) 17 days ago. Not at her best at Thurles last time; needs to find a bit to get involved here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (1) (150/1 -50%) Angelofthemorning |
150/1(-50%) | (1) Angelofthemorning 150/1, Half-sister to fair hurdler Gold Smoke (2½m-3m winner, by Gold Well). Dam, bumper winner, sister to useful hurdler/chaser (2m-3½m winner) Galaxy Rock. Last of 5 finishers sole start in points (Mar 2022). Not disgraced in a Monksgrange point-to-point 20 months ago bit this looks too tough. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (19) (250/1 -67%) Sydney Cruiser |
250/1(-67%) | (19) Sydney Cruiser 250/1, Last of 11 in bumper (200/1) at Roscommon (15.5f, good to soft) 132 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Soundly beaten in two summer bumpers and makes no appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (18) (200/1 -100%) Spyfall |
200/1(-100%) | (18) Spyfall 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, fourth of 15 in novice hurdle at Thurles (16.1f, soft) 17 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Ran well to a point in a mares' maiden at Thurles last time; much more needed here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (6) (250/1 -67%) Fire Coral |
250/1(-67%) | (6) Fire Coral 250/1, Thirteenth of 18 in novice hurdle (200/1) at Cork (16f, soft) on NH debut 14 days ago. Ordinary Flat handicapper and well beaten on her hurdles debut; makes little appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (7) (150/1 -88%) Good Time Belle |
150/1(-88%) | (7) Good Time Belle 150/1, Masterofthehorse mare. Dam, maiden over hurdles, 7f-9f winner on Flat. Wears hood. Mixture of speed and stamina in her pedigree; hooded for her debut; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (20) (250/1 -67%) The Belmont Girls |
250/1(-67%) | (20) The Belmont Girls 250/1, Pulled up in novice hurdle (150/1) at Wexford (16.4f, soft) on NH debut 79 days ago, tailed off when pulled up before straight. Huge price when pulled up on debut at Wexford at the beginning of September. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (8) (250/1 -67%) Highland Dew |
250/1(-67%) | (8) Highland Dew 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 12 in bumper (150/1) at Tipperary (16.2f, soft) 49 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Failed to beat a single rival in two bumpers; cheekpieces tried here but no obvious chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
It is hard to get away from the Willie Mullins-trained PAGGANE on her first start over hurdles. Formerly trained in France, the four-year-old won the last of her three runs on the flat when successful at Morlaix in June 2022. Despite being absent since then, that is never a worry with runners from her stable. Magic Dawn made a pleasing debut for previous connections at Fairyhouse in December before improving to win a decent contest at Punchestown subsequently. Although disappointing on her only run for Gordon Elliott, the daughter of Doyen had her excuses. Bioluminescence was a beaten favourite on her only start under Rules to date, but the former point-to-point winner showed enough to suggest she can regain the winning thread shortly.
A very open-looking mares' maiden and before the benefit of market clues, BIOLUMINESCENCE gets the tentative nod having displayed plenty in a bumper when last seen during the spring. Paggane has to command respect on hurdles debut for Willie Mullins, with Magic Dawn perhaps the pick of the Gordon Elliott quartet.
The one to beat looks to be BIOLUMINESCENCE who ran into a good one when favourite for a Limerick bumper in March and can make amends

2nd (9) (6/1 +57%) Makfils |
6/1(+57%) | (9) Makfils 6/1, Remains a maiden after 17 NH runs. Below form eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft, 5/1) 69 days ago, again let down by his jumping. Below his best at Galway in September but would come into it on his previous run at Sligo. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (20) (14/1 -75%) Poppy Rose |
14/1(-75%) | (20) Poppy Rose 14/1, 11/2, unseated rider sixth in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (19.8f, good to soft) 8 months ago. Given a chance by the assessor. Second in a handicap hurdle at Ayr in February and not discounted on that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (18) (5/1 +50%) Brownstone |
5/1(+50%) | (18) Brownstone 5/1, Winner in hurdle at Fairyhouse in October. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle (7/2) at Wexford (20f, heavy) 2 days ago, left poorly placed. Can make presence felt. A little unlucky at Thurles earlier this month before a below par run at Wexford on Friday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (15/2 +0%) Maimie's Magic |
15/2(+0%) | (11) Maimie's Magic 15/2, Latest win in hurdle at Newcastle in January. 12/1, back on track when second of 8 in handicap hurdle at Perth (20.2f, good to soft), running on. Off 6 months. Back down in trip. Looks competitive on form. Good second over 2m4f at Perth in April when last seen; respected if in similar form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (20/1 -43%) Upthereforthinking |
20/1(-43%) | (4) Upthereforthinking 20/1, 28/1, took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 9 in maiden hurdle at Galway (16.4f, heavy) 22 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should progress. Showed ability in maiden hurdles, most recently under this rider at Galway last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (22) (33/1 -65%) Perfect Arch |
33/1(-65%) | (22) Perfect Arch 33/1, Visor on for 1st time in this code, thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.3f, good to soft, 11/1) 5 months ago. First run for yard after leaving J. J. Lambe. Cheekpieces back on. Pulled-up in a point last month; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (25/1 -213%) Bayou Belle |
25/1(-213%) | (10) Bayou Belle 25/1, 6/1, produced her best effort to date over hurdles when second of 14 in maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 3 months ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Second at Kilbeggan in August; respected on that form but would prefer better ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (12/1 -140%) In For The Night |
12/1(-140%) | (3) In For The Night 12/1, 7/2, wasn't in the same form as previously when seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, soft) 44 days ago. Others more persuasive. Claims if he can bounce back to his previous form here but yet to race on ground this soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (22/1 -38%) Lodilomoco |
22/1(-38%) | (6) Lodilomoco 22/1, Showed a bit more than previously when fourth of 16 in maiden hurdle at Punchestown (16f, good, 18/1) 5 months ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Open to progress. Yet to race on ground like this but capable of getting into the shakeup if she handles it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (15/2 +63%) Mo Chruinne |
15/2(+63%) | (13) Mo Chruinne 15/2, Ran a poor level sent handicapping on first outing since leaving Charles Byrnes when tenth of 16 at this course (21.6f, good to soft) 64 days ago. Back down in trip. Ground is a doubt, the trip less so, and a case can be made if he handles the surface. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (25/1 +0%) Trishknowsbest |
25/1(+0%) | (8) Trishknowsbest 25/1, Pulled up in novice chase (9/1) at Downpatrick (17.8f, soft) 65 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Plenty to prove at present. Dual hurdles winner returning from an unsuccessful spell over fences and best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (19) (125/1 -56%) Cramers Valley |
125/1(-56%) | (19) Cramers Valley 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 25/1, thirteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.2f, heavy) 50 days ago. Back down in trip. Looks an easy swerve. Well beaten on his handicap debut at Gowran and hard to make a case for. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (2) (5/1 +0%) Freddie Robdal |
5/1(+0%) | (2) Freddie Robdal 5/1, Bounced back to form when second of 11 in handicap chase at Clonmel (16.3f, heavy, 17/2) 24 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Expected to be bang there. Back over hurdles here off a 4lb lower mark; likely to be thereabouts in a winnable race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (14) (33/1 -65%) Josies Dylan |
33/1(-65%) | (14) Josies Dylan 33/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 9 in maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, good, 11/1) 83 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut and worth a second look at the betting. Unable to win a point and not much to recommend in three maiden hurdles; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (16) (50/1 -52%) Jimmy De Giant |
50/1(-52%) | (16) Jimmy De Giant 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 33/1, twelfth of 17 in maiden hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy) 29 days ago. Back down in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Likely to improve. Has shown a little ability in three maiden hurdles but a lot more needed here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (17) (40/1 +39%) Leading Oak |
40/1(+39%) | (17) Leading Oak 40/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventeenth of 22 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20f, good, 80/1) 40 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. Beaten 163 lengths in two handicap hurdes and makes no appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (7) (11/2 +61%) Golden Nugget |
11/2(+61%) | (7) Golden Nugget 11/2, Last of 7 in beginners chase at Kilbeggan (19.4f, good, 100/1) 5 months ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should improve. Off since June and difficult to assess in her first handicap; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
19th (1) (100/1 -400%) Benz |
100/1(-400%) | (1) Benz 100/1, Sixth of 12 in claiming hurdle (13/2) at Roscommon (20f, good to soft) back in July, going in snatches. First run for yard after leaving Gordon Elliott. Increasingly looks one to oppose. Stable debut here after beaten five lengths in a Roscommon claiming hurdle in July. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
20th (5) (28/1 -75%) Falvio |
28/1(-75%) | (5) Falvio 28/1, Offered little on first outing since leaving A. J. Martin after 8 months off when eleventh of 19 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (24.1f, soft, 25/1) 9 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Tongue strap back on. Back to a more suitable trip here but best watched on just his second run for the stable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (15) (33/1 -313%) Mutadaawel |
33/1(-313%) | (15) Mutadaawel 33/1, 33/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (17.2f, soft) 31 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Enters calculations back on these shores. Has run well a couple of times here over hurdles which gives some encouragement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (12) (33/1 -32%) Knocknacree |
33/1(-32%) | (12) Knocknacree 33/1, Never dangerous on first run since leaving Gordon Elliott when fourteenth of 18 in maiden hurdle (22/1) at Limerick (16f, heavy) 29 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Well beaten on his stable debut in a Limerick maiden hurdle; best watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
IN FOR THE NIGHT, runner-up at this venue on his penultimate start, may be able to shed his maiden status. While the Desmond McDonogh-trained five-year-old failed to back that effort up when only seventh at Downpatrick last time, it usually pays to forgive a horse a below-par run at that unique track. With the Henry De Bromhead stable firing on all cylinders at present, recent Clonmel second Freddie Robdal has to be considered. Although that latter placed effort came over fences, the gelding is lightly raced over flights and can compete off a 4lb lower mark. Falvio showed ability for trainer Tony Martin last season without managing to get his head in front. A dual winner on the flat, he was never going to stay 3m, so his recent debut for new connections is readily forgiven.
An ultra-competitive handicap in which preference is for FREDDIE ROBDAL, who bounced back to form when runner-up at Clonmel recently and back over the hurdles for the first time in 15 months, Henry de Bromhead's 6-y-o can come out on top. Maimie's Magic got back on track when runner-up at Perth 6 months ago and she may have to settle for silver again on return, with Upthereforthinking, Brownstone and Mutadaawel just a handful of others that may get involved.
It might pay to side with MO CHRUINNE(nap). There was a bit to like about his stable debut here last time

1st (3) (4/6 +39%) Croke Park |
4/6(+39%) | (3) Croke Park 4/6, Winning pointer and, after an encouraging start in bumpers, made an impressive debut over hurdles when winning 10-runner maiden at Clonmel (16.6f, heavy, 3/1) 24 days ago. Exciting prospect and can score again upped in trip. Step up in trip should suit well and is Jack Kennedy's preference; the one to beat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (11/2 -10%) Mel Monroe |
11/2(-10%) | (6) Mel Monroe 11/2, Won maiden hurdle at Downpatrick in June and, after a further 4 months off, improved again when runner-up to a useful prospect in 9-runner novice at Cheltenham (19.9f, good, 7/1) 23 days ago. May do better still. Staying second in a 2m4f novice hurdle at Cheltenham last month; more needed here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (7/2 -56%) Search For Glory |
7/2(-56%) | (4) Search For Glory 7/2, Highly tried as a novice and, after 7 months off, made the most of a good opportunity when easily winning 7-runner maiden hurdle at Galway (21.4f, heavy, 1/9) 3 weeks ago. Respected now that he's up and running. Staying type that acts on testing ground and not one to underestimate here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (16/1 -78%) Pinyon Jay |
16/1(-78%) | (5) Pinyon Jay 16/1, Made a winning hurdling debut at Down Royal in September. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, needed stronger gallop when 3¾ lengths third of 7 to Solitary Man in listed novice at Cork (3m, soft, 11/2) 2 weeks ago. Remains with potential. Beaten in novice company last twice at Cork but looked more straightforward; place chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (9/1 +25%) Ballystone |
9/1(+25%) | (2) Ballystone 9/1, Placed twice from 3 starts in bumpers before making a successful debut over hurdles in 15-runner maiden at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good, 1/2) in May. Off since but he's open to progress over this longer distance. Landed a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle in May; has a mountain to climb here though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (150/1 -127%) Starman |
150/1(-127%) | (1) Starman 150/1, Fairly useful hurdler, with latest success in claimer at Clonmel in September. Stiff task when second of 3 in minor event at Fairyhouse (20.5f, heavy, 8/1) 12 days ago and he looks to up against it in this contest. Can travel well in his races but no chance in this company giving weight all round. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Second season novice SEARCH FOR GLORY can show that his education last term wasn't wasted on him. Gordon Elliott's six-year-old won his first two starts in a point-to-point and bumper respectively, before switching to hurdles after Christmas. After a fair third in a well contested maiden at Leopardstown, he subsequently attained a similar placing in a Grade 3 at Clonmel. Runs at both the Cheltenham and Aintree festivals were arguably a year too soon, but he benefited from those experiences to make a winning reappearance at Galway. Stablemate Croke Park, a point-to-point winner who got off the mark over flights at Clonmel recently, rates the biggest threat. Pinyon Jay can complete the clean sweep for the Elliott team by chasing them home in third.
CROKE PARK looked an exciting prospect when making most at Clonmel on his hurdling debut, quickening clear before 2 out, and he can follow up with the promise of significantly more to come. Search For Glory was highly tried as a novice and could be the main danger after making a winning return, while Mel Monroe could also still have more to offer.
Jack Kennedy's choice CROKE PARK should be good enough, although the same owner's Search For Glory could serve it up to him

11/4(+8%) | (6) Slane Hill 11/4, 5/2, career best when winning 9-runner novice chase at Kilbeggan (22f, good to soft) on debut over fences, better placed than most. Off 7 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Possibilities. Maiden hurdle winner; won chase bow when last seen; good mark back in this sphere if ready. |

4th (5) (7/1 -8%) Jumping Jet |
7/1(-8%) | (5) Jumping Jet 7/1, Latest win in hurdle at Leopardstown in March. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (4/1) at Punchestown (23.6f, good) 161 days ago. Stable having good spell. Not taken lightly. Bumper winner who landed Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March; hasn't built on that. |

5th (3) (12/1 -33%) Miss Tempo |
12/1(-33%) | (3) Miss Tempo 12/1, 1 win from 2 runs this season. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (18/1) at Galway (22f, good to soft) 109 days ago, pulled up approaching last. Needs a couple of these to falter. Pulled up in hat-trick bid at Galway festival and probably wants quicker ground than this. |

6th (12) (9/1 +25%) Atacanter |
9/1(+25%) | (12) Atacanter 9/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (24f, soft, 9/1) 48 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Promising return but it was a dismal effort on slower ground last month; cheekpieces on. |

8th (1) (7/1 -56%) Make Good |
7/1(-56%) | (1) Make Good 7/1, Second of 20 in handicap (5/1) at the Curragh (14f, heavy) 19 days ago, just failing. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Useful hurdler, so needs considering. Gr 2 win in Dec' 2020; not seen over timber since; shown he retains some ability on Flat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (14/1 -87%) Global Export |
14/1(-87%) | (4) Global Export 14/1, Course winner. 8/1, respectable third of 9 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 20 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Significantly up in trip. Hood back on. Considered. No wins since maiden hurdle success here in March 2022 and nothing in hand from this mark. |

13/2(+35%) | (11) Arctic Ambition 13/2, Failed to stay when sixteenth of 19 in handicap chase (12/1) at Cheltenham (25f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Stable in good form. Looks competitive on form. Tailed off over fences last month; best form on quicker ground; feasibly treated though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (11/2 +0%) Gortmillish |
11/2(+0%) | (2) Gortmillish 11/2, 2 wins from 4 runs this season. Respectable seventh of 20 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (24f, soft, 11/1) 22 days ago. Trainer going well. In the mix. 7th at Cheltenham last month on h'cap debut; mark probably stiff enough. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SLANE HILL makes his seasonal reappearance reverting to hurdles but likes soft ground and is rated 7lb lower in this sphere than over fences. He was progressive last winter until a February disappointment, but returned to win a Kilbeggan beginners' chase when upped in trip and remains a fraction unexposed at staying distances over hurdles. Gortmillish is race-fit, stays well and is in-form but might ideally prefer a sound surface while lightly-weighted stablemate Arctic Ambition is also suited by good ground and disappointed at Cheltenham last month. Another stablemate Jumping Jet ran well under a 7lb claimer at Punchestown in June but isn't first-string. Miss Tempo, who chased home high-class Love Envoi in a 2021 bumper, pulled up at the Galway festival but returns from a break.
Gordon Elliott holds a strong hand here and his handily-weighted ARCTIC AMBITION is fancied to resume winning ways now reverted to hurdles having failed to last home over 25f at Cheltenham last time. In-form stablemate Jumping Jet is feared most with Gortmillish taken to complete a clean sweep for the yard.
If SLANE HILL is fully tuned up for his return, he could be hard to beat having run a big race on chase debut when last seen

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Gordon Elliott looks set to run a record 15 horses in one race here and perhaps his GEVREY can win. Initially largely untested over staying distances, he improved to finish second in April's Irish National and while 8lb higher than when winning the recent Munster National, might continue to progress. He beat Largy Debut and stablemate Coko Beach into second and third respectively at Limerick. Ain't That A Shame finished second to last year's winner The Big Dog in the 2022 Munster National, is closely matched with Macs Charm on Gowran-form last March and might improve from his Kerry National reappearance run. Run Wild Fred finished fifth to the selection in the recent Munster National and having won the 2021 renewal of this race as a novice, is clearly suited by conditions. Thedevilscoachman was pulled up in April's Irish National but is a smart type on his day and stays this distance. Limerick Lace has more on her plate than when winning at Clonmel but is ridden by a 5lb claimer.
Gordon Elliott saddles over half the field here and his well-weighted HOLLOW GAMES is fancied to lead his mighty contingent home on the back of his promising Galway third. Stablemate Run Wild Fred can boast a C&D win and is next on the list ahead of other Elliott inmates in the shape of Gevrey, Coko Beach and Tullybeg.
The ground will really play into the strengths of AIN'T THAT A SHAME who has had excuses on his last 2 runs but this test should suit

Ex-pointer with the scope to make a better chaser, so makes plenty of appeal. Looked like a top prospect in bumper days but didn't kick on over timber. |

8/11(-9%) | (2) Fact To File 8/11, Smart winner at 20f in bumpers. 16/5, 1¼ lengths second of 21 to A Dream To Share in Champion Bumper at Cheltenham (16.4f, soft). Off 8 months. Winning pointer and notable that connections go straight to chasing. Point and bumper winner; 2nd to A Dream To Share last twice incl' Champion bumper. |

4th (7) (9/1 +18%) Spirit Of Legend |
9/1(+18%) | (7) Spirit Of Legend 9/1, Useful hurdler. Below form thirteenth of 21 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Cheltenham (20.2f, good to soft), unable to sustain effort. Off 8 months. Makes chase debut. Maiden hurdle winner at this meeting last year; lost his way a little but has a squeak. |

12/1(-85%) | (3) Landrake 12/1, Useful hurdler. Good second of 5 in novice hurdle at this course (22f, heavy, 9/4). Off 8 months. Makes chase debut. Doesn't make as much appeal as his stablemate but still deserves respect. Useful novice hurdler and could improve for a fence; just about best of these over timber. |

250/1(-150%) | (6) Quickbuck 250/1, 80/1, thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 101 days ago. Makes chase debut. Has really struggled for form since leaving Nicky Henderson and hard to make a case for. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
High-class FACT TO FILE follows the same path taken by his trainer's Florida Pearl and Missed That in going straight from bumpers to fences. The only horse to beat him last season was A Dream To Share and while this route is somewhat unorthodox, he is a mature six-year-old point-to-point winner. American Mike himself finished second in a Cheltenham Festival Bumper, in 2022, and while his novice hurdle-season was underwhelming, has the size to make a better chaser, although might struggle to beat the selection. Stablemate Landrake was rated 135 over hurdles and debuts over fences on reappearance. Spirit Of Legend and stablemate Lets Go Champ were similarly rated over hurdles but need to improve to win this while My Immortal didn't run last season, despite being a non-runner last December and February.
This has the makings of a really strong beginners chase and, while AMERICAN MIKE gets the nod given his scope to improve in this discipline, he faces stern opposition in the form of Fact To File. Lets Go Champ has also achieved plenty over hurdles and appeals as the type to make a better chaser, so he's another one to consider.
Champion Bumper runner-up FACT TO FILE has a decent French jumps pedigree and it's probably telling he goes straight over fences

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
QUALIMITA was bought for a cool 500,000 euros following her impressive Fairyhouse point-to-point win for Colin Bowe last April and debuts for leading connections. That form is nothing special despite the runner-up being bumper-placed subsequently, but she sauntered to a 30-length victory and it is notable she contests a Listed bumper first time out. Only By Night also won effortlessly and impressively on heavy ground at Limerick last month, when conceding weight to the lesser placed-horses. She seems progressive and while open to further improvement, her Warwick defeat last February is nonetheless a small concern and also concedes 4lb to the selection. Roedara is a dual winner and while capable, faces a tougher task on differing ground than when winning at Down Royal and has top weight. Tarnova was a surprise debut winner last month and steps up in grade while Disco Dancer, a 115,000-euro store, runs in a first-time tongue-tie. Mongibello ran well behind two subsequent racecourse winners on Oldtown point-to-point debut last February.
QUALIMITA cost half a million euros on the back of a ready point success and, given her handler has felt it necessary to go for listed success immediately, she's clearly held in high regard. Only By Night and Tarnova are both above-average types who give the selection something to aim at.
This can go the way of ONLY BY NIGHT who bolted up in similar ground on yard debut last month and she can come on for that run

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.
