12:15 Punchestown Handicap Chase 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

GENERAL HUBBLE turns out again quickly here after an easy victory at Fairyhouse on Tuesday. The Telescope gelding ran out a six-length winner over three miles and given the style of his victory, the race hopefully won't have taken too much out of him. Connections claim 7lb off him again with Carl Millar taking the ride. Emily In Paris has run well on her last couple of outings, both over timber, and she has to be on the shortlist now racing off a few pounds lower over fences. Jack Kennedy has been on Pictures Of Home both times he has won and the top-weight could be place material.

GENERAL HUBBLE seems to have found his feet for Gordon Elliott now and, having scored from out of the handicap at Fairyhouse 3 days ago, he's effectively only 1 lb higher now, so he's the leading contender ahead of Emily In Paris, who ran well over hurdles at Down Royal a fortnight ago. Bondi Boy Blue is another one to consider.

Preference is for GENERAL HUBBLE(nap) after readily landing a handicap at Fairyhouse on Tuesday. The mandatory penalty may not stop him

12:50 Punchestown Maiden Chase 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

A tricky-looking contest and JASKO DES DAMES may be able to double up over fences after making a successful start at Wexford late last month. The It's Gino gelding was value for a bit more than his winning margin of half a length that day, after getting under the last fence, and there looks to be scope for further improvement. Broomfield Bijou also carries a winner's penalty and the mare takes a drop in class after finishing third in Grade 3 company here last month. Chase newcomer Undeniable Alibi is another for the shortlist. The Saint des Saints gelding was a point-to-point winner and may improve on his hurdles form from last season.

PARK THE GIANT was in contention when making a mess of the last on chasing debut and there's more to offer, so he's preferred to Jasko Des Dames, who opened his account at the first time of asking in this sphere. Broomfield Bijou is also capable of playing a part following a good third in Grade 3 company here last time.

BROOMFIELD BIJOU gets the nod. A course winner over timber, her Gr 3 third here last time reads well in the context of this race.

13:25 Punchestown Conditions Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Joseph O'Brien saddles three in this and PUTURHANDSTOGETHER may prove the pick on his hurdling debut. The Caravaggio gelding showed a nice level of ability on that Flat, winning a Curragh handicap off a mark of 79, and his half-brother Showurappreciation won over hurdles last year. Stablemate Turn And Finish has hurdling experience under his belt and is entitled to be a leading contender. He was a fine third at Galway 20 days ago, while Babich ran well in Roscommon maiden on the Flat last month and is another to note on his jumping bow.

PUTURHANDSTOGETHER achieved a fairly useful level of form on the Flat and should be well prepared for this hurdling debut by his top yard, so he's preferred to stablemate Turn And Finish, who stayed on well into third at Galway last time. Ballyearl is an interesting newcomer on pedigree.

TURN AND FINISH ran very well over hurdles at Galway and comes right into it. His previous experience might just prove crucial

14:00 Punchestown Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

The Willie Mullins-trained IRANCY should prove hard to beat on his second start for the stable. A winner in his native France as a three-year-old, the gelding made a promising start for new connections when third on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse last December. Given that both the winner and runner-up went on to prove themselves in Grade 1 company, this looks a nice opportunity for the six-year-old. Rapparee Champ, a winner on the Flat for Joseph O'Brien, has been improving with each run over hurdles. Charles Byrnes' representative holds every chance of opening his account in this sphere. Point-to-point/bumper scorer Will The Wise is another who is worthy of respect.

IRANCY is in good hands and shaped with plenty of encouragement when third on his hurdles bow at Fairyhouse in December. He can land the spoils here. Rapparee Champ and Will The Wise are feared most.

Preference is for IRANCY who was third in a very hot maiden hurdle when last seen almost a year ago and should take beating

14:35 Punchestown Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

The in-form JAKE PETER can complete a hat-trick for trainer Mark Cahill. A C&D winner last month, the veteran followed up with a commanding success at Cork last time. Best on a sound surface, the gelding has been fortunate that the weather remains dry and another bold showing likely beckons. Vischio is unquestionably well handicapped over hurdles although the mare can sometimes ruin her chances at the start. If getting away on terms, the seven-year-old looks one of the more likely types in a competitive affair. The consistent Luimneach is also of interest.

JAKE PETER arrives in fine form and ought to have conditions to suit once more. He may be able to complete the hat-trick. Gwan Tadhg and Inchiquin Star head the list of dangers.

VISCHIO has run well in three of her last four, trip and ground will suit and she was just denied on her last visit to this track.

15:10 Punchestown Maiden Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

SOUNDS VICTORIUS, a course bumper winner before subsequently finishing fourth in Grade 1 bumpers at both Cheltenham and the festival here, can make a winning debut over hurdles. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding, who has the potential to take high rank in the novice hurdle division this season, should have too much class for these opponents. The Diddler, who has reached the frame on both starts over hurdles so far, has to rate the main danger. Given her previous experience of jumping, the six-year-old mare looks the one for second, ahead of Limerick bumper winner The Dancing Tree.

It's very hard to ignore the claims of smart bumper performer SOUNDS VICTORIUS now hurdling for the Willie Mullins team. What threat there is may come from fellow bumper winner and hurdle newcomer The Dancing Tree.

This looks a good opportunity for the classy bumper peformer SOUNDS VICTORIOUS to get off the mark on his hurdling debut.

15:45 Punchestown Handicap Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

A winner at Fairyhouse earlier this month, DELIAS PET followed up at Gowran Park last week and the daughter of Stowaway could be hard to beat. Tommies Call is a definite threat given the manner in which he opened his account last time. Although now 8lb higher, the Jarlath Fahey-trained gelding should not be discounted. Dee's Getaway is another that comes into this race on the back of a victory and the four-year-old has more scope for improvement than most of these.

KILMURRY JJ ran as well as he's ever done over hurdles when third at Fairyhouse recently and is taken to build on that and deny Delias Pet the hat-trick. Klassman was third when Tim Doyle's mare gained the first of her 2 wins and also makes the shortlist along with recent Fairyhouse scorer Tommies Call.

Preference is for KLASSMAN who was unlucky not to get closer to Delias Pet at Fairyhouse and he may be able to turn that form around.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
