12:35 Punchestown Maiden Chase 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

HIGH CLASS HERO was last seen finishing runner-up in a Grade 1 novice hurdle over 3m at Punchestown in May and is of obvious interest on his chasing debut. Shannon Royale has filled the runner-up berth on both of his previous starts over fences. On those occasions, he was beaten by a Mullins inmate and he has two of them to beat here as the champion trainer also saddles Loughglynn, who was a Grade 2 winner over hurdles.

HIGH CLASS HERO was the best of these over hurdles and sure to be well prepared for this chase debut, he looks the answer. Shannon Royale sets a pretty good standard over fences though and his limit has not yet been reached, with Grand Soir also considered.

Preference is for SHANNON ROYALE. He likes it here and his previous experience in this sphere might just give him the edge.

13:05 Punchestown Handicap Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FOLLY MASTER ran a cracker on his return from a nine-month absence at Navan recently. Over a trip short of his optimum, the six-year-old kept on well in the closing stages to finish a never-nearer second and another good run can be expected. A winner at the Cheltenham Festival in 2022, Brazil warrants the utmost respect on his handicap debut over fences. The dual-course victor Hardwired, Listentillitellya and Noble Talent are other leading hopes.

The lightly-raced FOLLY MASTER shaped well, not least with a view to stepping back up to this sort of trip, when second at Navan (2m) 16 days ago, finishing to good effect having met some trouble. He earns the vote to prove this mark within reach. Gowran-winner Noble Talent and Hardwired, who shaped much better than being pulled up suggests last time, is another worth a second look.

FOLLY MASTER should have plenty more to offer and his recent comeback run at Navan augurs well here now upped to a more suitable trip

13:35 Punchestown Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

French recruit SAINTE LUCIE has to be given plenty of respect ahead of her Irish debut. On her sole start in her native country, she was third at Auteuil in April and ought to be one of the leading contenders now with Willie Mullins. There was plenty of promise in Young Churchill's third on debut over hurdles at Fairyhouse and he could be the main threat. Chortal was four lengths behind him in fourth that day and there is likely to be more to come from him.

SAINTE LUCIE is from a yard that is having plenty of success this season with similar types and is preferred to Young Churchill and Chortal, who both made promising starts in this sphere when hitting the frame in the same race at Fairyhouse.

A juvenile maiden which may not take too much winning and the Willie Mullins' French recruit SAINTE LUCIE could well be up to the job

14:05 Punchestown Conditions Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SAINT SAM has been in terrific form of late, mixing hurdling and chasing, and could repeat his victory in this race from 2022. His stablemate Sir Gerhard won the renewal a year ago and could enjoy these calmer waters after finding life difficult in Grade 1 company on his last two starts. Ballyadam is making his seasonal reappearance but cannot be ruled out, while Relieved Of Duties is up in class after putting his rivals to the sword in a maiden hurdle at Cork.

SAINT SAM is on a roll over both sets of obstacles and while conceding 8 lb to an on-song Ballyadam will be no easy task, with that rival making his return to action, he may well be up to the task. Sir Gerhard will doubtless run closer to form this time, too.

Several of these really want softer ground so it could set this up nicely for SAINT SAM, who arrives here on the back of a career-best

14:35 Punchestown Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A winner on handicap debut at Listowel two starts back, THE NAGGER REIDY was clear of the remainder when narrowly beaten over 2m4f at Tipperary last month. The horse that beat him followed up at Leopardstown a few days ago and he can defy a 5lb hike under in-form rider J J Slevin. Farmers Lodge was a warm order when easily beating In For The Night in a 24-runner Fairyhouse handicap. He has been heavily penalised for that success but is open to more improvement.

THE NAGGER REIDY arrives firmly on the up so gets a confident vote to quickly resume winning ways on the back of his excellent Tipperary second last time out. Farmers Lodge ran out an easy winner at Fairyhouse last month so should ensure Stephen Carey's 5-y-o doesn't have things all his own way though. In For The Night and Stormbreaker appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

Tipperary second THE NAGGER REIDY looks well handicapped still and form has been franked since

15:10 Punchestown Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Ross O'Sullivan fitted a tongue-tie on BISHBASHBOSH when the daughter of Malinas made her stable debut at Naas earlier in the month. On just her second handicap start and after a couple of months off, she put in a good shift and can confirm form with Shing Shilla, who was a place behind her in fifth. Klassman has improved in recent starts and his Thurles conqueror showed up well at Leopardstown on Saturday. Destivelle is a long-standing maiden but has been running creditably of late and might be place material.

KLASSMAN is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough victory at the chief expense of Restless Son who caught the eye when 11th at Limerick last time out. Destivelle, Bishbashbosh and Petit Dejeuner are also in the picture in this very open contest.

BISHBASHBOSH ran a nice race on her debut for Ross O'Sullivan at Naas over this trip and she gets the nod off a 1lb higher mark

15:45 Punchestown NH Flat Race 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Gordon Elliott saddles two interesting newcomers in the shape of Kisuton Enki and The Queen Of Zim. Bought for 160,000 euros at the Tattersalls Derby Sale, the former is a half-sister to 11-time winner Yala Enki. A Bective Stud homebred, The Queen Of Zim is a half-sister to high-class stable companion The Yellow Clay. The winner of a point-to-point in May, Bambino Fever is of definite interest on her debut for Willie Mullins, while Sam Curling's Derryville is another leading hope. For a selection it might be worth taking a chance on JOLIE FOLIE. She showed some promise on debut at Navan earlier this month and it'll be interesting to see if she can build on that performance.

Highly likely this will go to a Rules newcomer and before the benefit of market clues, point-winner BAMBINO FEVER is awarded the vote in favour og the Gordon Elliott-trained pair Kisuton Enki and The Queen of Zim.

Gordon Elliott runs Kisuton Enki and THE QUEEN OF ZIM and narrow preference is for the latter, though the market will reveal plenty

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.
