3rd (13) (3.5/1 -17%) Must Be Dreaming |
3.5/1(-17%) | (13) Must Be Dreaming 3.5/1, Fair chaser. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, excellent fifth of 10 in novice chase at Killarney (20f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Obvious claims.

4th (12) (8.5/1 +53%) Lily Of Dromard |
8.5/1(+53%) | (12) Lily Of Dromard 8.5/1, Modest hurdler. 10/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy). Off 6 months. Makes chase debut. Can handle these conditions and there are winning chasers in the family.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (14) (18/1 -112%) Some Woman |
18/1(-112%) | (14) Some Woman 18/1, Promising type. 16/1 and hooded for 1st time, fourth of 13 in novice chase at Downpatrick (19.2f, good to soft) on debut over fences 14 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Open to improvement. This winning pointer wasn't all that far away on her switch to fences at Downpatrick.. |

6th (7) (66/1 +0%) Massons Castle |
66/1(+0%) | (7) Massons Castle 66/1, 50/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Down Royal (20f, soft) 158 days ago, jumping right fourth. Struggled the last two years and failed to complete either of his chase starts.. |

7th (5) (3.5/1 +61%) Kitsilano |
3.5/1(+61%) | (5) Kitsilano 3.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules (dual point winner). Below form fifth of 13 in novice hurdle (8/1) at this course (16f, good to soft) 46 days ago. Makes chase debut and significantly up in trip. Modest hurdler form but he's soon sent chasing and has the pedigree for it.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (6/1 +0%) Hard Rain |
6/1(+0%) | (4) Hard Rain 6/1, Fair chaser. Pulled up in handicap chase (11/2) at Limerick (17.7f, good to soft) 8 days ago, snatched up before first. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Hampered early when never involved in his latest handicap and has the form to feature.. |

|PU| (6) (8/1 -7%) Malinas Glory |
8/1(-7%) | (6) Malinas Glory 8/1, Fair chaser. 8/1, first run since leaving Brian O'Keeffe when respectable seventh of 13 in handicap chase at Tipperary (17f, good to soft) 29 days ago.

|PU| (1) (18/1 -125%) A Fortune Out West |
18/1(-125%) | (1) A Fortune Out West 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 14 in novice hurdle (20/1) at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Makes chase debut and significantly back up in trip. Ran okay in his latest maiden hurdle and perhaps fences will be the making of him.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (10) (22/1 -38%) Frazel Express |
22/1(-38%) | (10) Frazel Express 22/1, Fair hurdler. Last of 7 in minor event hurdle at Cork (24.2f, soft, 28/1). Off 7 months. Makes chase debut. All three wins have been here but she's left it late in the day to go over fences.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (25/1 +0%) Fireworks |
25/1(+0%) | (2) Fireworks 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Makes chase debut and significantly up in trip. Others preferred. Useful Flat performer on goodish ground but it's been poor stuff over hurdles.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (50/1 +24%) Lillys Girl |
50/1(+24%) | (11) Lillys Girl 50/1, Sixteenth of 23 in handicap hurdle at Naas (23.6f, soft, 40/1) 64 days ago. Makes chase debut. Won one of her four points but she's low-grade over hurdles and would be a surprise winner. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Although there is a possibility that we may not see the best of KITSILANO until he moves into handicap company, it is difficult not to be drawn to the John Joseph Murphy-trained gelding here. A dual point-to-point winner, the six-year-old hinted at better to come in three maiden hurdles over the minimum trip and now steps up in distance for the first time under rules. Hard Rain represents a stable that has an excellent strike rate at this particular venue, so for that reason alone, the Arcadio gelding deserves close consideration. First time cheekpieces may also see the James Dullea-trained runner show further improvement. Top Line Tommy isn't the easiest to win with but has the highest official rating of those to have attained a mark. He should be involved for a place at the very least.
While he hasn't shown much in a handful of 2m maiden hurdles, KITSILANO could be seen in an altogether better light now moving up in trip for this chase debut. Indeed, the 6-y-o was a winner of 2 of his 4 starts between the flags and is marginally preferred to A Fortune Out West, who beat Pembroke on his sole point start in 2021 and may also leave his hurdles form well behind now switched to fences. Must Be Dreaming and Some Woman are the pick of those with experience in this sphere.
There could be some improvers lurking but MUST BE DREAMING ran surprisingly well at Killarney the last time and she's preferred.

1st (4) (4.5/1 +36%) The Dasher Conway |
4.5/1(+36%) | (4) The Dasher Conway 4.5/1, 28/1, bit below form tenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft) 36 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Switches from hurdles to chase. About 3l down when falling late on in his only handicap chase; below par back hurdling.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (4/1 +11%) Mater Matuta |
4/1(+11%) | (7) Mater Matuta 4/1, Respectable sixth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft, 22/1) 10 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Looks vulnerable for win purposes. Respected on his win in this 12 months ago and latest run over hurdles wasn't too shoddy.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (4/1 -20%) Freddie Robdal |
4/1(-20%) | (5) Freddie Robdal 4/1, 15/2, career best when winning 13-runner handicap chase at this course (15.1f, soft) 47 days ago. Likely to continue in form. Appreciated more patient tactics when getting up in the nick of time over C&D in April.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (9/1 -29%) Railway Hurricane |
9/1(-29%) | (1) Railway Hurricane 9/1, Twenty-two runs since last win in 2020. 10/1, fourth of 13 in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (19.1f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Down in trip. He's now firmly frustrating in this discipline (0-19; second five times).. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (3/1 -20%) Pats Choice |
3/1(-20%) | (2) Pats Choice 3/1, Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Good second of 9 in handicap chase at Ballinrobe (17f, good to soft, 4/1) 31 days ago, outbattled. Should continue to give a good account. His fifth defeat over fences when coming up just short at Ballinrobe; 4lb higher for this.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (4/1 +47%) Karen's Gift |
4/1(+47%) | (6) Karen's Gift 4/1, Fair winner at 17f over hurdles. Fourth of 14 in novice chase at this course (21.7f, good to soft, 9/1) 46 days ago. Cheekpieces back on for this handicap debut over fences. Has good chance on pick of form. Made mistakes on chase debut but was better here last time (2m5f) when beaten under 5l.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (25/1 -150%) Downthecellar |
25/1(-150%) | (3) Downthecellar 25/1, C&D winner. Fell in handicap chase (28/1) at Down Royal (16.4f, soft). Off 7 months and it could be that he'll come on for the run. Capable handicapper but quite high in the weights now though and he lacks a run.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Having gone close on his last couple of starts, the Gordon Elliott-trained PATS CHOICE can strike for the first time over fences. The form of his Fairyhouse second looks very strong in the context of this race, while he was only just denied on his most recent outing at Ballinrobe last month. Downthecellar is a real course specialist, with three of his four career wins having been achieved at this venue. Although now 11lb higher than when last winning, the Edward O'Grady-trained gelding could be rejuvenated by a return visit. Freddie Robdal went up 3lb for a narrow win over course and distance last time but that weight rise is offset by Mike O'Connor here. The locally trained six-year-old holds strong claims.
The vote goes to KAREN'S GIFT, who stepped up on her chase debut when fourth in a beginners' event here last time and she makes her handicap debut in this sphere off a mark 4 lb lower than that off which she struck over hurdles at Down Royal in January. Pats Choice is 0-5 over the larger obstacles but has found just one too good on each of his last 3 starts and another bold show is on the cards. Freddie Robdal opened his chase account here in April and is best of the rest.
The 6yo PATS CHOICE did everything but win at Ballinrobe and, whilst a 4lb rise is annoying, he was clear of everything else.

1st (3) (0.4/1 +30%) Samui |
0.4/1(+30%) | (3) Samui 0.4/1, Promising individual. Bumper winner in February. Very good start over hurdles when second of 13 in juvenile at Tipperary (16f, good, 10/3) 15 days ago. Hard to beat with improvement. Good second at Tipperary; room for a bit of improvement and hard to look beyond here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (15) (4.5/1 +44%) Ta Na La |
4.5/1(+44%) | (15) Ta Na La 4.5/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Promising sort. Third of 17 in juvenile hurdle (25/1) at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 10 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Should improve. Good third in a Punchestown maiden hurdle latest; should come on for that and play a hand. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (6.5/1 -86%) Dark Note |
6.5/1(-86%) | (2) Dark Note 6.5/1, Fair Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. Fair winner at 10f on flat. Third of 13 in juvenile hurdle (20/1) at Tipperary (16f, good) 15 days ago but Samui was 9 lengths ahead in second. Solid third to Jit Langy at Tipperary two weeks ago; unlikely to be far away here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (10/1 -67%) Spy |
10/1(-67%) | (4) Spy 10/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 9f on flat. Fourth of 13 in juvenile hurdle (4/1) at Tipperary (16f, good) 15 days ago but Samui was well ahead of him in second. Failed at Tipperary latest; could get in the shake-up but likely to find a couple too good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (12/1 -33%) Bojak |
12/1(-33%) | (1) Bojak 12/1, Promising type. 12/1, first run since leaving Andreas Suborics when third of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Cork (16.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 27 days ago. Trainer going well. May well do better. Well behind Spy at Cork; has plenty to find to be a factor here but should improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (28/1 +44%) Aussie Warrior |
28/1(+44%) | (6) Aussie Warrior 28/1, Fairly useful maiden on the Flat. Once-raced maiden. First run since leaving James Tate when eighth of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Cork (16.8f, good to soft, 125/1) on NH debut 27 days ago. Didn't shape too badly on his hurdles debut at Cork; more one for handicaps later on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (150/1 +0%) Sea The Sunset |
150/1(+0%) | (11) Sea The Sunset 150/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 13 in juvenile hurdle (200/1) at this course (16f, good to soft) 46 days ago. Beaten a long way in two maiden hurdles and can't be seriously fancied. |

8th (8) (50/1 +24%) Jeriko De Baune |
50/1(+24%) | (8) Jeriko De Baune 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Eighth of 13 in juvenile hurdle (50/1) at Tipperary (16f, good) 15 days ago. Behind a few of these at Tipperary latest; others much preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (80/1 -100%) Sefarina |
80/1(-100%) | (14) Sefarina 80/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Once-raced maiden. First run since leaving Jack W. Davison when thirteenth of 14 in novice hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good, 14/1) on NH debut 15 days ago. Well beaten on her hurdles debut at Tipperary and an unlikely player here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (7) (50/1 -25%) Caminante |
50/1(-25%) | (7) Caminante 50/1, Morpheus gelding. Half-brother to smart 7f-10.7f winner Ansgar. Dam ran once on Flat. Wears hood. Very much a Flat pedigree and best watched; hooded for his debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (200/1 -33%) Parish Rivals |
200/1(-33%) | (9) Parish Rivals 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good, 125/1) 15 days ago. Well beaten at Tipperary latest and might be of more interest when getting a mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (150/1 -50%) Across The Ocean |
150/1(-50%) | (5) Across The Ocean 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. 250/1, fifteenth of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Killarney (17f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Tailed off on both starts last month and makes no appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (12) (50/1 -213%) Helens Delight |
50/1(-213%) | (12) Helens Delight 50/1, French Navy filly. Half-sister to 2 winners on Flat, including 7f winner Tybendargent. Dam unraced. Mostly Flat pedigree and best watched on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (13) (100/1 +0%) My Second Chance |
100/1(+0%) | (13) My Second Chance 100/1, Once-raced maiden. Fourteenth of 15 in juvenile hurdle (22/1) at Cork (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 54 days ago, broke blood vessel when. Yard having good spell. Broke blood vessels when tailed-off on debut at Cork; probably best watched today. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Three of the leading fancies for this contest met in a similar race at Tipperary recently, with SAMUI faring best. Having his first start over hurdles, the former bumper winner was always prominent before keeping on well to chase home an odds-on favourite. Granted normal improvement from that introduction to jumping, the Gordon Elliott-trained four-year-old should again prove too strong for third placed Dark Note and Spy, who occupied fourth. The former might have finished that bit closer but for a mistake at the last but he still has plenty to do if he is to overturn that bare form. Meanwhile, the Charles Byrnes-trained Spy failed to build on a very promising debut effort when second at Cork. However, he remains lightly raced and open to improvement for current connections.
It's very hard to ignore the claims of SAMUI who ran to a pretty useful level when second on his recent Tipperary hurdle debut. Ta Na La, who like the selection was placed on her hurdle debut, is second choice ahead of Dark Note, who was 9 lengths behind the selection when third at Tipperary.
Likely favourite Samui will do well to give 15lb to TA NA LA who ran very well on her hurdles debut at Punchestown last week

1st (2) (5/1 -186%) Set Point |
5/1(-186%) | (2) Set Point 5/1, Promising type. 11/4, career best when winning 13-runner handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good to soft) 14 days ago, readily. Definitely more to come and a 9 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop him. Nicely on top at Down Royal but a 9lb rise for that spells some danger.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (10/1 +17%) Craic Eile |
10/1(+17%) | (9) Craic Eile 10/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Eleventh of 16 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at Clonmel (19.1f, soft) 22 days ago. Both wins here and won't mind returning to drier ground, but others are in better form.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (12/1 +57%) Frontline Worker |
12/1(+57%) | (8) Frontline Worker 12/1, 28/1, bit below form eighth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (20f, good). Off 8 months. Yard in good form. Maiden winner; perhaps 2m4f was too far in her first completed handicap.. |

4th (11) (14/1 +79%) Breezy Bell |
14/1(+79%) | (11) Breezy Bell 14/1, Thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (20f, good, 40/1) 89 days ago. Four career wins but thoroughly exposed and ended last season on a low note.. |

5th (7) (7.5/1 +0%) Laser Focus |
7.5/1(+0%) | (7) Laser Focus 7.5/1, 4/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Stable in good form. Has form here; had Doyenna behind when just missing out at Kilbeggan in April.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (14/1 +0%) Take My Hand |
14/1(+0%) | (10) Take My Hand 14/1, Below form seventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good to soft, 13/2) 31 days ago, going off too hard. Others more persuasive. Four-time Flat winner; 0-8 over hurdles but competitive form; last run too bad to be true.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (8/1 -23%) Starman |
8/1(-23%) | (5) Starman 8/1, Good second of 14 in novice hurdle (6/1) at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 21 days ago, running on. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Open to improvement. Perhaps has his quirks but up to winning off this mark as he showed at Kilbeggan.. |

8th (1) (11/1 -10%) Fascinating Shadow |
11/1(-10%) | (1) Fascinating Shadow 11/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 12f on flat. 33/1, below form sixteenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Cork maiden winner last year; 33-1 when down the field on April's handicap debut.. |

9th (4) (7/1 +42%) New Ross |

Cheekpieces on 1st time. High mark since his win at Thurles and probably needs cheekpieces to give him a lift.. |

|PU| (6) (3/1 +40%) Doyenna |
3/1(+40%) | (6) Doyenna 3/1, Course winner. Latest win in hurdle at Fairyhouse in October. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (15f, good to soft, 4/1) 43 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Nicely progressive last season; feasible excuses for her last two defeats; respected.. |

|RO| (3) (11/1 +21%) Tom McGreevy |
11/1(+21%) | (3) Tom McGreevy 11/1, Winner in hurdle at Ballinrobe in May 2022. 11/1, creditable 4½ lengths fourth of 12 to Doyenna in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good). Off 7 months. Claims if ready to roll. Runner-up in this 12 months ago off only 2lb lower; likely contender if fit enough.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SET POINT appears to hold strong claims of following up his recent win at Downpatrick. That form has already received a boost with the runner-up going on to win on his next start. The Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was a smart handicapper on the level when trained in Britain and could have more to offer from his current hurdles rating. Despite dropping back to the minimum trip for this race, he travels well so should have enough place to cope. Starman showed his first worthwhile form when only narrowly denied in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan last time. The seven-year-old has had very little racing so should be capable of further progress now that he tackles handicap company. Craic Eile doesn't have a great deal of solid recent form but as both career wins have come at this track he shouldn't be discounted.
Gordon Elliott's SET POINT has got better with each start over hurdles and will be a tough nut to crack if that trend continues. Doyenna made a sound return from a break at Kilbeggan 6 weeks ago and is feared most ahead of Starman, who appeals as a likely improver now moving into handicap company for the first time.
This is competitive but last year's runner-up TOM McGREEVY could be interesting provided that this run isn't needed.

8th (1) (40/1 -60%) Alo's Vision |
40/1(-60%) | (1) Alo's Vision 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, ninth of 12 in novice hurdle at Wexford (20f, good to soft) 13 days ago. More is needed. Point winner but yet to make any impact over hurdles; others much preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (15) (50/1 +0%) Weir Lane |
50/1(+0%) | (15) Weir Lane 50/1, Tongue strap on, ninth of 16 in novice hurdle at Killarney (22.2f, good, 80/1) on NH debut 18 days ago. Runner-up in a point (Apr 9) so not dismissed. A lot more needed but no surprise should she show significant improvement from Killarney. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (14) (200/1 -60%) Unklipped |
200/1(-60%) | (14) Unklipped 200/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tenth of 19 in novice hurdle (300/1) at Tipperary (15.8f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Quite well beaten in three maiden hurdles; could be capable of better but hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (200/1 -60%) Glen Ali |
200/1(-60%) | (4) Glen Ali 200/1, Thoroughly unreliable sort. 250/1, first run since leaving Iain Jardine when eleventh of 12 in novice hurdle at Wexford (20f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Looks of little account and makes no appeal here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (125/1 -150%) Pippa Power |
125/1(-150%) | (12) Pippa Power 125/1, Shirocco mare. Dam unraced sister to 2m3f winners Themanfrom Minella and Imperial Icon. Market can guide. Plenty of stamina in her pedigree and maybe worth watching on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (16/1 -129%) Majestic Design |
16/1(-129%) | (8) Majestic Design 16/1, 4/1 and tongue strap on, seventh of 12 in bumper at Tipperary (18f, soft) on NH debut 29 days ago. Won both completed starts in points so needs considering on her hurdles debut. Disappointing in a Tipperary bumper last month and could well shape better here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (9) (80/1 -21%) Mollys Dream |
80/1(-21%) | (9) Mollys Dream 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Last of 10 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (21.7f, good, 100/1). Off 9 months. No show in a trio of maiden hurdles for this stable late last summer; hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (7.5/1 +25%) Ned's Legacy |
7.5/1(+25%) | (11) Ned's Legacy 7.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 11/2, fifth of 12 in novice hurdle at Clonmel (16.2f, soft) 22 days ago, finishing well. Significantly up in trip. Has more to offer. Needs to improve to play a hand here but that is possible on this better ground. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
BYNX wouldn't be a mare to have total trust in, given that she has failed to win and only reached the frame four times in 21 starts but this looks an ideal opportunity. Trainer Martin Hassett could hardly have his small string in better form and this five-year-old mare has plenty experience that should stand to her in this ordinary contest. A reproduction of her Cork second on penultimate start would almost certainly be good enough now. Hamartia showed definite ability on her first two starts and improved further when runner up at Kilbeggan recently. With only three career runs to date, the Colm Murphy-trained mare should have more to offer. Dylan's Day stepped up on previous runs when a close third at Wexford recently, and a similar level of form would see her play a leading role.
HAMARTIA posted an excellent second at Kilbeggan after an absence and with more progress on the cards she is fancied to go one better now at the chief expense of Dylan's Day, who should benefit from this step up in trip judged on her recent Wexford third. Lucky Viv and Ned's Legacy complete the shortlist.
The Colm Murphy-trained HAMARTIA showed a nice bit of progression at Kilbeggan in April when last seen and can follow that up here

3.33/1(+58%) | (4) Costanuci 3.33/1, 15/2, creditable fifth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Booking of Kelly a plus. Worthy of respect. Two solid runs in Punchestown handicap hurdles either side of a poor effort here in April. |

5th (2) (3.5/1 +0%) Tennessee Titan |
3.5/1(+0%) | (2) Tennessee Titan 3.5/1, Encouraging sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (17f, good to soft, 5/4) 13 days ago, needing stiffer test. Back up in trip and very much one to consider. Could fare better at this intermediate trip and could put that Wexford run well behind him. |

6th (1) (16/1 -256%) Tick Along |
16/1(-256%) | (1) Tick Along 16/1, 25/1, career best when winning 12-runner handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.4f, good to soft) 14 days ago, kept up to work. Ought to be in the shake-up again. Up 6lb for her Downpatrick win and there could well be more to come from her. |

7th (14) (33/1 -32%) Double Windsor |
33/1(-32%) | (14) Double Windsor 33/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 20/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Downpatrick (23.5f, good to soft) 28 days ago, labouring from early final circuit. Switches from chase to hurdles. No encouragement from his recent return over fences at Downpatrick; others preferred. |

10th (10) (25/1 -56%) Western Dreaming |
25/1(-56%) | (10) Western Dreaming 25/1, Seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.5f, good to soft, 11/1), ridden too aggressively. Off 7 months but can give a good account if ready to roll. Not seen since running poorly at Downpatrick in October and likely to need the run. |

11th (7) (11/1 +8%) Rewrite The Script |
11/1(+8%) | (7) Rewrite The Script 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, very good sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. In the mix. Good Punchestown run;tongue-tie tried here and might progress enough to be on the premises. |

13th (3) (4/1 +11%) Spring Street |
4/1(+11%) | (3) Spring Street 4/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at this course (20.3f, soft, 40/1) 47 days ago. Can make presence felt with headgear retained. Ground is a question but likely to be thereabouts for this local stable if he handles it. |

14th (9) (50/1 +38%) Getaway Molly |
50/1(+38%) | (9) Getaway Molly 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 100/1, twelfth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Naas (16.3f, soft) 64 days ago. Up in trip with more required. No real show on her handicap debut at Naas in March; much more needed here. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
TICK ALONG improved on anything she had done previously when winning at Downpatrick last month. While there is no guarantee that the Tom McCourt-trained mare can replicate that performance on a very different track, she is still the most likely winner. Locally trained Spring Street also put up a career best last time, staying on nicely to finish second at this venue in April. He too, needs to show that he can reproduce that effort but if doing so, he has to be a contender. Tennessee Titan ran a big race when third over 3m at Cork last month but failed to back that up when dropped in trip last time. Perhaps this intermediate distance will see him in a better light.
A few with chances but TENNESSEE TITAN should prove well suited by this return to a longer trip so is taken to open his account off a handy-looking mark. Spring Street is feared most on the back of his good recent second here, although recent Downpatrick scorer Tick Along seems sure to have a say too.
The locally-trained SPRING STREET(nap) ran a fine race on softer ground here last time and will take the beating if handling the ground

5th (11) (1.25/1 +29%) Lily's Choice |
1.25/1(+29%) | (11) Lily's Choice 1.25/1, Well Chosen mare. Dam little impact over hurdles. Placed both starts in points in late-2022, runner-up latest. Makes plenty of appeal on Rules debut for top yard. Modest point form but joining Willie Mullins naturally heightens interest appreciably.. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
LILY'S CHOICE can make a winning debut for Willie Mullins in this finale. Placed in both of her point-to-point runs, the five-year-old has a prominent racing style that should prove ideal for this tight track. The champion trainer traditionally does well with his bumper runners at this venue so is sure to have relied on one thought capable of getting the job done. Barton Snow has proven highly consistent in her career between the flags, so the William Murphy-trained six-year-old must be considered. Moira McElligott is one of the most experienced riders in this race and that could be the difference should it develop into a tactical affair. Royal Moon is another with leading claims having showed up well on three runs under Rules.
LILY'S CHOICE showed plenty of ability in points and is worth chancing on Rules debut for a top stable. Royal Moon is the clear pick of those with experience in this sphere and should pose a big threat, while Western Flyer is likely to compete for a place.
The most likely winner is ROYAL MOON, who ran to a fair level in two maiden hurdles and didn't run at all badly back in a bumper.

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.
