12:05 Thurles Maiden Chase 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MISTERGIF was highly tried over hurdles last season and is a nice prospect for chasing this term. The Zarak gelding was fifth in the Supreme Novices' and also finished fourth in Grade 1 company at Aintree. The form of his runner-up effort at Punchestown looks good, with the winner Gorgeous Tom a Grade 3 winner at Cork earlier this month. Stablemate Western Diego was bought from the Clipper Logistics dispersal and was Grade 2-placed over hurdles last season. He's a strong second string. Former stablemate Ho My Lord has the chase form in the book. He chased home Farren Glory at Naas last time and is entitled to be thereabouts again.

MISTERGIF has shown a useful level of form as a hurdler and is very much the type to make a better chaser, so he gets the nod ahead of Boldog, who fell on chasing debut but can also make his presence felt based on hurdling form. Ho My Lord has the best form over fences to date, so he deserves some respect.

Willie Mullins has won the last five runnings of this beginners' chase and MISTERGIF can make it six

12:40 Thurles Conditions Chase 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

APPRECIATE IT looks nicely treated in this on his return to action. The Jeremy gelding ran a big race on his seasonal debut last season, when second in the John Durkan, and has won first time out a few times so catching him fresh may be best. Fil Dor has a run under his belt and may prove the danger. Gordon Elliott's charge stayed on into second behind Saint Sam at Clonmel three weeks ago and looks worth a shot at this distance now. Nick Rockett ran really well when third in the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown on his final start last season and is a smart handicapper. He's another for the shortlist.

APPRECIATE IT can provide Willie Mullins with a seventh success in this listed chase since 2015. Gordon Elliott's Fil Dor is the obvious danger on the back of his decent comeback run in the Clonmel OiI.

NICK ROCKETT has the gears for this shorter trip and was an excellent third in the bet365 Gold Cup at Sandown when last seen

13:15 Thurles Handicap Chase 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ROOM TO ROAM ran well over fences at Sligo early last month and a similar effort may be enough to get his head in front again now. The Fast Company gelding chased home Gladiatorial then and that form has worked out well since, with the fourth-placed General Hubble going on to win twice. Cahirdown Boy won on his penultimate start and didn't run too badly off his revised mark when fifth in Limerick. He is entitled to play a big part in this company. Port Rashid ran well over hurdles last time and, off a couple of pounds lower over fences, the veteran could get involved.

Having scored at Listowel in September, CAHIRDOWN BOY acquitted himself well in a better race at Limerick so, back down in grade, he's fancied to get back to winning ways at the possible expense of Room to Roam. Malinas Glory also makes plenty of appeal.

The vote goes to BRAVE ADAM who improved up to a similar trip at Killarney and was bang there at Fairyhouse last time before an error

13:50 Thurles Maiden Hurdle 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Cheltenham Champion Bumper fifth FISHERY LANE should prove hard to beat on his hurdling debut. The Gemix gelding disappointed when last seen at Punchestown in May. He got tight for room turning in then, but it was still a below-par effort and he's obviously capable of a lot better. Stablemate Foreverwalking was pulled up in a Clonmel bumper on his track debut, having won a point-to-point. He was reported to have made a noise that day and it will be interesting to see how he fares now. Point winner Committee Meeting showed promise when fourth on his hurdling debut at Punchestown and should pick up prize money.

FISHERY LANE was well beaten at Punchestown when last seen but he shaped well both starts prior to that, including when fifth in the 19-runner Champion Bumper at the Cheltenham Festival. The 5-y-o is likely to prove hard to beat now switched to hurdles in a race which, with all due respect to his rivals, probably won't take much winning. Stablemate Foreverwalking didn't show much on his Rules debut but is surely capable of better. Committee Meeting and Cyrus Field both have each-way claims.

CYRUS FIELD finished fifth of 17 behind a classy horse on his debut and is entitled to come on plenty for the run

14:25 Thurles Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Paul Townend sides with French recruit KARAMOJA. The Masked Marvel filly was third in Listed company on her jumping debut at Auteuil in September 2023 having been placed in two bumpers previously. She now makes her debut in the Gigginstown colours. Stablemate Baby Kate is a strong second string. The daughter of Augusta Kate won two bumpers last season before a slightly disappointing effort in the Grade 2 mares' contest at Aintree, where she was reported to have run flat. Beauforts Storm has been runner-up twice recently, but faces a stronger calibre of rival now.

This looks another Willie Mullins benefit, with French import KARAMOJA, the mount of Paul Townend, preferred to last season's dual bumper scorer Baby Kate. Recent Wexford bumper winner Glens Lullaby may prove best of the remainder.

The fact that Paul Townend elects to ride French import KARAMOJA here ahead of Listed bumper winner Baby Kate makes her the choice

15:00 Thurles Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

KARAFON tries maiden company for the first time over hurdles and should open his account. The Karaktar gelding was a fine fifth in a Grade 2 on his sole outing for Willie Mullins at Leopardstown last Christmas and gets another crack at a novice season now. He had also been Listed-placed over hurdles in France prior to joining the champion trainer. Paul Collins ran a nice race on his track debut at Wexford when third to Empire Succes and may improve a bit from that. The form doesn't look anywhere near as strong as the selection's, though. Party Dress was well beaten when fifth at Fairyhouse, but may be able to pick up some prize money here.

French recruit KARAFON wasn't beaten at all far on debut for Willie Mullins in a strong Grade 2 contest at Leopardstown last December and it will be disappointing should he fail to deliver. Paul Collins made a promising start under Rules at Wexford and he is the clear pick for forecast purposes. Party Dress is best of the rest.

KARAFON has the standout piece of form in the book and will be very hard to beat if he's ready to roll after an absence

15:35 Thurles Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

PRINCE QUATTRO was well supported when scoring at Limerick nine days ago and can win again, despite a 7lb rise. The Notnowcato gelding made virtually all and was a convincing winner at the finish. Judged on post-race comments, he will appreciate this nice going. Oakley was the subject of a gamble on his handicap hurdle debut at Tipperary back in May, but a bad mistake two from home proved costly. He's a potential danger on his return. Brave Troop is potentially well treated over hurdles compared to his Flat rating and is another to note on his first outing for Charles Byrnes.

OAKLEY would have been right in the mix but for a bad mistake 2 out on handicap bow at Tipperary in May and remains of interest off the same mark on return. Brave Troop is potentially well treated on his Flat form now switched to a handicap so is feared most ahead of Beechfield, who showed much more on his handicap debut at Punchestown last month.

It might pay to side with DREAM ESCAPE (nap) after good runs at Gowran and especially at Cheltenham two weeks ago

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.
