17:05 Sligo Claiming Hurdle 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

DESERT FRIEND appreciates better ground and is eminently capable of a big run. He ran a fair race in third in a claimer on the Flat at Tramore last month, and it was just three runs back that he scored in a beginners' chase at Clonmel. Bigz Belief weakened out of contention in a handicap hurdle at Galway on Sunday, but it is worth noting that he made all to win a claiming hurdle over slightly further at this track in June. This is a marked drop in class for Wajaaha and it could spark him back into form. Market support would certainly be significant. Conna Cottage is far from out of contention.

Given that he is due to run on the Flat here on Wednesday, CAFE CON LECHE is far from certain to go to post, but it's worth noting that his success in a handicap hurdle at Limerick in March was gained on the back of a six-day break. Provided all goes well on Wednesday and he is allowed to take his chance, the 7-y-o will have a big chance on these terms. Conna Cottage could be the one to benefit most should Cafe Con Leche not take part, with Wajaaha and Desert Friend set for minor roles.

17:35 Sligo Maiden Hurdle 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A switch to hurdling could see COOLE CHERRY get off the mark. Willie Mullins' mare has finished runner-up on all four bumper runs to date, so clearly has ability. She is ground versatile and is sure to be well schooled for her first crack at flights. Air Drop performed more than respectably in fourth in a mares' maiden hurdle at Listowel. There is likely to be much more to come from her as a half-sister to a horse who has won five races over hurdles. Ta Na La has had three spins over hurdles and, having been placed in all of them, wouldn't need to find much more to deliver in this company. Glendars Mahler has plenty of experience in this discipline and has been placed in three maiden hurdles. She fell in the early stages at Ballinrobe, but is better than that.

TA NA LA paid late on for matching strides with the winner for a long way at Kilbeggan last month and certainly has a race of this nature within her compass judged on that performance, so she gets the nod. Coole Cherry has shown a fair level of ability in bumpers and will be suited by this slightly stiffer test now hurdling, with Air Drop also feared.

TIMOURID could fare best in this rated novice hurdle. Paul Flynn's charge landed a valuable handicap on the Flat at the Curragh in May and showed that he has a future over hurdles when taking a Roscommon maiden hurdle in July. Outsider Presenting Doyen took full advantage of a pace collapse to win in Killarney. That form has to be taken with a pinch of salt, however, she brought up plenty of bets so the win wasn't a surprise to many. Hazelhatch Lady made all and held on to score over further in Roscommon. She goes to work off bottom-weight and the field would be wise not to give her too much rope if the same tactics are applied.

TIMOURID created a good impression when making his first completed start over hurdles a winning one in a Roscommon maiden in July, and with further progress in the offing on that evidence, he's fancied to make a bold bid to follow up in this stronger affair. Presenting Doyen, following her Killarney victory 21 days ago, can emerge as the chief threat.

DOWNTHEREFORDANCIN appeared to be crying out for a step up in trip in Roscommon and gets it here. He stayed on to be a never-nearer fourth over just shy of 2m, and looks a big player in this handicap. On Pearlofflorida's penultimate start, she enjoyed the good ground over a similar trip at this track and swept in by three lengths. She then didn't appear to quite get home when sixth over an extended 3m at Kilbeggan, but should appreciate being back over this sort of trip. Kellie's Dream won nicely over 2m2f in Kilbeggan which brings her right into contention. Cian Quirke knows her well and his 5lb claim is more than useful. Champagne Vacation gave best on the run-in over further in Bellewstown and dropped to third, so this journey could be more to his liking.

This could be a strong race for the grade with MAGNETIC NORTH taken to get his act together over hurdles and cash in on what is a generous mark given his Flat ability. Kellie's Dream is feared most, though Baby Chou is open to progress.

19:05 Sligo Maiden Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

WESEEKHERTHERE has run well enough on three starts over hurdles to suggest she is capable of winning a race of this nature. The Gordon Elliott-trained four-year-old showed up nicely in two maidens before winning her bumper at Roscommon in June. There was again, plenty to take from a staying on third back over flights at Ballinrobe last time. Winning Flat handicapper Scott Lang has reached the frame on his only two runs over hurdles to date. The Paul Flynn-trained six-year-old has to concede weight all round but should be good enough to make his presence felt. Attaboyarchie has the highest official rating of those to have received a mark, while his jockey can claim 7lb. The Imperial Monarch gelding was a beaten favourite at Wexford last time but is a capable sort on his best form.

WESEEKHERTHERE matched her previous best over hurdles despite shaping as though the drop in trip was against her when third in a Ballinrobe maiden 16 days ago and, with this rating a more suitable test, she looks likely to make a bold bid. Attaboyarchie is a player on the pick of his form, and along with Scott Lang, heads up the dangers.

THE FOUR SIXES disappointed when pulled up at Fairyhouse in December but a reproduction of his maiden hurdle win at Clonmel the previous month would make him the one to beat here. The runner-up went on to win his next two starts and is now rated 135, while the third won a competitive handicap at Galway last week. If fit and ready after an absence, the Gordon Elliott-trained five-year-old looks nicely handicapped in this grade. Delante failed to give her running at Galway but the Tom Copper-trained mare went close at this track on her penultimate start. Perhaps, a return to familiar terrain will see the daughter of Walk In The Park in a better light. Junior Rattler stayed on nicely when second at Kilbeggan on his reappearance last month. The Oliver McKiernan-trained gelding should be sharper for that run, so rates a danger under Philip Enright.

TRUE DESTINY was on the up over hurdles in June and, despite a poor run on the Flat at Galway last week, he's worth a chance to gain another C&D success at the possible expense of Clifftop, who ran well in a novice at Ballinrobe 16 days ago. The Four Sixes is one to monitor in the betting on return.

If forgiven a poor run at Fairyhouse in December THE FOUR SIXES has strong claims in this grade based on a Clonmel maiden win

20:05 Sligo NH Flat Race 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MOUNT SINAI, a half-sister to a gelding that won his bumper first time out before finishing fourth in the Cheltenham Grade 1 bumper, is obviously interesting on debut. Like the aforementioned, she also represents the Willie Mullins stable, so is certain to know her job on racecourse debut. It would be no surprise to see the daughter of Mount Nelson make a winning start to her career at a track where her trainer does exceptionally well. Adela Icon showed precious little on her initial outing at Fairyhouse in December but subsequently made a hot favourite pull out all the stops when just being denied at Ballinrobe. A reproduction of that latter effort would make the David Harry Kelly-trained mare a serious contender. Sleep Sound shaped well on her debut when third over hurdles at Kilbeggan last month so has to be respected now switching to a bumper for her in-form trainer.

MOUNT SINAI is with a top yard and related to a bumper winner, so she's worth chancing to make a successful start in a race where the bar isn't set all that high by those with experience. Adela Icon and I Am Shadow might well fight it out if the selection doesn't come up to expectations.

The Willie Mullins-trained MOUNT SINAI, a half-sister to the yard's debut bumper winner Seabank Bistro, gets the vote on debut

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.
