12:10 Thurles Maiden Chase 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MONBEG PARK might beat some better-known hurdlers and win on chase debut. A debut point-to-point winner, he won well at the Punchestown festival in April and while 'just' a 137-rated hurdler, is built and bred for chasing so has potential in this sphere. Aspire Tower finished fourth as a five-year-old in the 2021 Champion Hurdle and should improve considerably from his recent reappearance, following 902 days off. He travelled with customary enthusiasm over 2m7f here last month before tiring but, being keen-going and Flat-bred, his task isn't straightforward on chase debut. Il Etait Temps himself won a February Grade 1 hurdle and is possibly best judged on his commendable fifth-placing in Cheltenham's Supreme Novices Hurdle - where some of Leopardstown's beaten horses turned form. Also keen, his hurdling technique was iffy but is another good chasing recruit. Ho My Lord has a tough task on chase debut.

IL ETAIT TEMPS showed plenty of class over hurdles last season and there's no reason why he won't take to chasing, so he's a confident choice. Monbeg Park is the main danger, although Aspire Tower strikes as the sort to do better over fences also.

On hurdle ratings MONBEG PARK has a bit to find but he appeals as a chasing type and will know his job coming from this source

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

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

CAPODANNO was pulled up in the Grand National but should be ready on reappearance. Beaten eight lengths by stablemate Haut En Couleurs at Gowran in February, the selection is now 9lb better off and being a previous Grade 1 winner, possesses slightly more ability. Haut En Couleurs lacks a gear to be a top performer but was only six lengths away from giving Willie Mullins a first Cheltenham festival handicap chase win in March. He has course form, albeit when a final-fence faller in January, but a reproduction of that Grade 2 form should see him involved. Janidil, another stablemate, beat Haut En Couleurs 1.25 lengths in February and while race-fit, is 12lb worse off and wears a first-time tongue-tie. French Dynamite has a little to find with Haut En Coueleurs on that January course form although is 3lb better off. Farouk D'alene returned from 613 days off when falling at the first in the Troytown and is possibly best watched, despite being a dual Grade 2 winner. James Du Berlais, under his owners' retained jockey, was Grade 1-placed in April and holds Classic Getaway on that form.

FRENCH DYNAMITE is a high-class chaser on his day and has gone well fresh before so he might be worth siding with to see off the Willie Mullins battalion, headed by Capodanno, Haut en Couleurs and Janidil.

On the forecast yielding ground FRENCH DYNAMITE may prove equal to the challenge posed by a five-strong Mullins team

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

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

DUNDANIEL ran well from 3lb out of the handicap in a better race last Sunday and might now defy top weight. He was beaten just 3.5 lengths in Sunday's race and while his quick reappearance isn't ideal, is helped by stepping up a furlong and runs from a favourable rating. Reddys Island, a four-year-old point-to-point winner in 2021, returned to form recently and ran well in two recent northern chases. She is 3lb higher than when third at Down Royal but also drops in class today. Ardera Ru was beaten from a career high mark at Naas but being an October course winner, might fare better here. Toofareastiswest wasn't beaten far here last week and steps back up in trip while Black Samurai returned to form at Punchestown. Dorans River was well beaten at Listowel in September and while rated 18lb lower in this sphere than over hurdles, is a 13-year-old. Getaway Train failed to land a gamble in February but might do better over fences.

A few in with a squeak but the vote goes to DORANS RIVER, who was clearly in great heart despite his advancing years during the summer and operating from a much lower chase mark returning from a break, he can notch a fourth success of the year. Gordon Elliott couldn't be in much better form and his Reddys Island can chase home the selection, ahead of Dundaniel and Ardera Ru.

Providing Sunday's Cork outing has not left a mark DUNDANIEL has sound prospects of conceding weight to his rivals in this lesser race

13:50 Thurles Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

LOMBRON debuts for Willie Mullins having finished third on his only previous run, in an April hurdle. That Compiegne race is difficult to assess but the fourth-placed horse won an Auteuil chase subsequently and it is very encouraging he reappears in November with Paul Townend booked. Joyeux Vivo and Nathan Wells were separated by a neck when finishing second and third respectively to an impressive winner at Gowran recently. Joyeux Vivo was reappearing and Nathan Wells was debuting, so improvement can be expected from both but are nonetheless vulnerable to smart types. Whimsy ran well on Galway hurdles debut but faces a tougher task while Dollar Nolimit (beaten by Joyeux Vivo at Punchestown in April) can improve from a recent hurdles debut. Bobbi Gin Tree should improve from debut while stablemate and third-reserve The Great Unknown is from the family of Rhinestone Cowboy and ran well on point-to-point debut.

LOMBRON looks an interesting recruit from France and can make a winning start for his top stable. There are plenty of potential improvers in opposition, headed by Joyeux Vivo and Nathan Wells.

An interesting rematch between Joyeux Vivo and NATHAN WELLS, the latter taken to overturn Gowran form

FUN FUN FUN should prove hard to beat here if taking to hurdling on her jumping bow. The Martaline mare was among the leading fancies for the Cheltenham bumper following an impressive demolition job in the Grade 2 mares contest at Leopardstown last February. She made little impression at Cheltenham, and was turned over at a short price at Punchestown subsequently, but remains an exciting prospect given the level of ability she has shown. Gaillimh A Run was also a dual bumper winner and wasn't disgraced when sixth in the Grade 2 contest at Aintree. She could be the one to give the selection most to do. Rockstown Girl already has hurdling experience, having been a fine second to Leah Tricks at Fairyhouse early last month. She also has to be on the shortlist.

FUN FUN FUN and Gaillimh A Run both showed plenty in bumpers and rate good hurdle prospects, but preference is for the former, who quickened clear of her rivals in taking fashion in a Grade 2 at Leopardstown in February. Rockstown Girl was let down by some novicey mistakes on her hurdling debut at Fairyhouse and she shouldn't be taken lightly with that initial experience behind her.

Patrick Mullins maintains a link with FUN FUN FUN that has yielded two wins and a Grade 3 fourth. If she settles well, she should score

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

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

DADDY LONG LEGS was just denied when staying on strongly on his sole outing on the Flat in his native France and could be another nice pick up for Willie Mullins. The Almanzor gelding showed a nice attitude first time up when going down by a short-head at Saint-Cloud in May 2022 and cost 210,000 euros at the sales subsequently. Cleatus Poolaw was turned over at a short price on his 'track' debut but looked a touch green then and the point-to-point winner could improve for going over an obstacle now. Irish Panther has been knocking on the door and had some strong bumper form. He was no match for Farren Glory on his hurdling debut at Clonmel three weeks ago and needs to step forward from that.

The market should prove a valuable guide but Willie Mullins' newcomer DADDY LONG LEGS, who showed plenty of promise on his sole Flat run in France, is fancied to make a winning start in this sphere. Irish Panther rates a big threat but might have to settle for second once more, with Gordon Elliott's hurdling debutant Cleatus Poolaw also well in the mix in an intriguing maiden.

Willie Mullins introduces DADDY LONG LEGS, touched off in a Saint-Cloud Flat maiden and who is Grade 1-entered at Christmas

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

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

HERCULANEUM was given a fine ride by Oran McGill to score here a week ago and may be able to follow up under his penalty. The Australia gelding travelled well down the straight and was produced with a well-timed challenge to lead on the run-in. He was value for a bit more than his winning margin of a neck. Dual course and distance winner Port Rashid didn't make much impression on heavy ground at Tramore last time and could get a lot closer now on a better surface. Be My Hero has been taken out a few times recently because of testing ground and is another that could figure here now.

HERCULANEUM confirmed the promise of his recent hurdle runs when coming out on top under a well-judged ride here 7 days ago and he could be the way to go under a penalty. Be My Hero for Gordon Elliott and Port Rashid are others to consider, whilst Out of The Park also makes some appeal on just her second start in handicaps.

Successful here last week under a well-judged hold-up ride HERCULANEUM is taken to defy a 7lb penalty

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.
