The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
PRESENTING DOYEN and Fruit Blossom have met twice over hurdles in recent months with the score currently one apiece. On this occasion, the Cian Collins-trained mare is marginally preferred, on account of the fact she gave weight to her rival when winning at Kilbeggan in April and also has a point-to-point placing to her name. Fruit Blossom arrives here in good form having won over flights at Downpatrick last weekend. Gordon Elliott's seven-year-old briefly looked in trouble at one stage before her stamina kicked in. With that in mind, there has to be a slight worry about her on a much sharper track such as this. Dual hurdle winner Ally Cay was entitled to need her recent comeback run on debut for trainer Paul Flynn, so a much improved performance would not be a surprise.
PRESENTING DOYEN has been in good form over hurdles and brings experience from points to the table. She can make a successful chase debut. Natural Look and Thecornerhouse can also make their presence felt.
Rachael Blackmore and PRESENTING DOYEN combined successfully over hurdles last month and there are chasers in the family.

2nd (12) (14/1 +44%) Lake Chad |
14/1(+44%) | (12) Lake Chad 14/1, Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft, 12/1) 8 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs a couple of these to falter. Each-way claims on the pick of this year's form in handicaps and rain is not a bother.. |

3rd (4) (2.5/1 -43%) Inclusion |
2.5/1(-43%) | (4) Inclusion 2.5/1, Promising individual. 11/10, career best when winning 12-runner novice chase at Tipperary (19.5f, soft) 47 days ago, cruising clear.

Carries penalty and significantly up in trip for this handicap chase debut. Novice winner here on Thursday; penalised and forecast rain tempers enthusiasm. |

|PU| (5) (40/1 -82%) Charlie Stout |
40/1(-82%) | (5) Charlie Stout 40/1, 33/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap chase at Galway (18.2f, soft) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Comfortably held on last three appearances and this veteran is thoroughly exposed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
INFLUENTIAL LADY, who won the mares beginners chase on the corresponding card 12 months ago, looks to have been primed for this meeting. The James Barcoe-trained nine-year-old showed that she can be competitive off this sort of mark when runner-up at Punchestown in April and has been campaigned both on the flat and over hurdles of late. Back on a track where she has proven her effectiveness, the Doyen mare can score. Inclusion arrives here on the back of a very easy win at Tipperary last time. However, Willie Mullin's mare, who was well beaten by Influential Lady over course and distance last year, has to give considerable weight away now. Rotten Row, a winner here on Thursday evening, should appreciate stepping up in trip as he bids to double up for trainer Tony Mullins.
INCLUSION stepped up on her chase debut when coasting home at Tipperary and, with the promise of better to come now pitched into a handicap in this sphere, she will prove hard to beat. Top Line Tommy, a wide-margin C&D winner in June, shaped better than the bare result at Wexford recently and he is feared most. Influential Lady and Whacker Clan both make each-way appeal.
The Mullins mare INCLUSION smacked of an improving 6yo when winning at Tipperary and she was balloted out of Galway.

9/1(+44%) | (1) Peckham Springs 9/1, Last of 7 in handicap chase at Wexford (16f, good to soft, 13/2) 44 days ago. Best to look elsewhere. Dual hurdle winner 0-7 as chaser; handicapped accordingly but he needs to raise his game. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
FULL NOISE remains a well-handicapped horse over fences so should have every chance of making a winning debut for new connections. The seven-year-old had plenty in hand when beating Likable Chancer at Downpatrick on his penultimate run and clearly something was amiss when he disappointed on his only subsequent outing at Limerick. Although the gelding could do with brushing up his jumping, he should have too much for this largely exposed opposition. The aforementioned Likable Chancer kept on well when runner-up to Full Noise on his most recent start but it is difficult to see him turning the form around at these revised weights. Some Woman has been running consistently in similar races of late so should again be capable of making her presence felt.
The vote goes to LIKABLE CHANCER, who opened his chase account here in April and he bounced back from a couple of low-key efforts when runner-up at Tipperary last time. The 9-y-o may well have won that day but for a couple of mistakes late on and he could prove hard to peg back if able to cut out the errors. Full Noise got the better of the selection at Downpatrick during the spring and will be a threat if on-song starting out for his new yard. Alexharwill is best of the rest.
Full Noise beat LIKABLE CHANCER the last time they met but the selection ran the best race of the pair last time out.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
REVEREND HUBERT should prove difficult to beat now that he steps up in trip on just his second start over hurdles. A dual winner on the flat when trained in Britain, the Zoffany gelding stayed on strongly to finish runner-up on his Irish and hurdling debut at Roscommon earlier this month. With an extra half-mile to travel now, the Charles Byrnes-trained five-year-old can make his stamina count. Point-to-point winner Gentle And Kind also shaped well on her hurdling debut, filling the second spot at Kilbeggan last month. Henry De Bromhead's mare is another that should be seen in an even better light now that she steps up to this distance. Misty's Gift is certainly good enough to win his maiden hurdle at some point, although he may just find this opposition a bit too strong.
Point winner GENTLE AND KIND made a most promising start under Rules when runner-up in a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle and, with improvement on the cards, she is taken to go one better here. Reverend Hubert was pretty useful on the Flat for Richard Hannon and also found just one too good on his first run in this sphere at Roscommon. He is next on the list ahead of Dylan's Day, while Misty's Gift and Walmix are others to consider.
Henry de Bromhead's GENTLE AND KIND must have had her issues but she's clearly talented judged on her Kilbeggan second.

FRIENDS got the job done as odds of 4/6 suggested she would in a Wexford bumper on her racecourse introduction and Willie Mullins quickly turns her attentions to hurdles. Her pedigree suggests she will excel over obstacles and there is expected to be plenty of confidence behind her. Albert Camus made a really promising return from the sidelines when runner-up at Kilbeggan and can only improve. Hashtag Pretender was turned over at odds-on at Roscommon but there are races in him in this discipline.
Winner of a Wexford bumper on debut last month, FRIENDS looks a decent prospect for the all-conquering Willie Mullins yard and she is taken to maintain her unbeaten record by making a successful start in this sphere. Hashtag Pretender and Albert Camus are feared most in that order of preference, while dual Flat winner Scottish Dancer is also of interest on his hurdles debut.
John McConnell's ALBERT CAMUS ran as well as could have been expected behind a talented favourite last week.

4th (10) (9/1 +50%) Surviving Murmansk |
9/1(+50%) | (10) Surviving Murmansk 9/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Switches from Flat to hurdles on first run for yard after leaving Mrs A. M. O'Shea. Poor on latest start in this sphere and now makes handicap hurdle debut. Has not produced a great deal yet under both codes, fair bit to prove here on stable debut. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
MAGGIE WALSH won over C&D in June and could repeat the feat. Crucially, she handles plenty of cut in the ground and comes here on the back of a runner-up berth on soft ground at Kilbeggan last month. Cian Quirke is good value for his 5lb claim. Philip Rothwell is firing in plenty of winners this season and saddles Globetrottersivola, who obliged by half a length in Kilbeggan last weekend. He is only up 4lb for that success, so should be a big player. Redwood Queen disappointed at Roscommon in June, but has had a break since then and looks one of the more likely contenders.
Preference is for REDWOOD QUEEN, who was beaten a fair way at Roscommon but she is well worth another chance on the strength of her encouraging debut for this yard when returning from a 7-month absence at Punchestown in May. Globetrottersivola opened his account at Kilbeggan recently and is next on the list, while handicap debutant Boskill Borden is also shortlisted, along with Maggie Walsh.
A winner at Kilbeggan, GLOBETROTTERSIVOLA (nap) has only a 4lb hike to defy and can keep the course winner Maggie Walsh at bay

2nd (13) (3/1 +79%) Mullins Cross |
3/1(+79%) | (13) Mullins Cross 3/1, One win from 26 NH runs. Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. 14/1, creditable 9½ lengths eighth of 13 to Gwan Tadhg in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) 7 days ago.

4th (9) (20/1 +50%) No Show |
20/1(+50%) | (9) No Show 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Modest winner at 10f on flat. Fourteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (18f, soft, 50/1) 30 days ago. Pretty much a 'no show' on any of his starts so far over hurdles; weak betting proposition. |

9/1(+55%) | (5) David's Lad 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 16 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Thurles (15.8f, good to soft). Off 9 months. Others more persuasive. Put firmly in his place on handicap debut at Thurles, needs to have come on a packet. |

20/1(-25%) | (8) Magnetic Pulse 20/1, Blinkered for 1st time, last of 13 in maiden (250/1) at this C&D (good) 3 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Blinkers on for 1st time in this code. Pulled up on last hurdle run. Tuned up on the flat here on Thursday but found life difficult, hurdle form also poor. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
BARBAHA QUEEN is an each-way play in a weak race. John Ryan's mare ran better than the result suggested on her comeback when seventh at Kilbeggan last week. She was collared before the last and understandably weakened on the run-in after an absence of almost nine months. Just three runs back, she was third in a higher grade on testing ground at Clonmel. Gwan Tadhg is sure to be popular after winning in this grade at Downpatrick last Sunday. He certainly has prospects off 7lb higher, especially as he remains in the same grade, but he did relish better ground in the north and this ground is likely to be much slower after the deluge in Tramore on Friday.There could be more to come from I Am The Sea and he is worth a second look.
GWAN TADHG has gone up 7 lb for his breakthrough success at Downpatrick last weekend but he may well prove equal to the task if able to build on that performance. Leroy Leroy is second choice on the back of a decent effort at Kilbeggan and Barbaha Queen may also have a part to play if, as expected, she comes on for her recent reappearance spin at the same course. I Am The Sea is a potential improver now pitched into a handicap in this sphere and he also enters calculations.
Gwan Tadhg sets the standard, but BE MY HERO could well be up to the challenge after running a sound enough race at Sligo lately.

0.44/1(+34%) | (10) Nt Field Minnesota 0.44/1, Flemensfirth mare. Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Mahler's Promise. Winner of latest start between the flags in April and she's of obvious interest on Rules debut for the Willie Mullins yard. Point winner for Colin Bowe now housed with the champion trainer, lots going for her. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NT FIELD MINNESOTA looks another one for Willie Mullins in his current domination of bumpers. This Flemensfirth mare has switched to Mullins for her track career after winning a point-to-point at Dromahane in April for Colin Bowe. Jekiki scoped dirty after a disappointing run at Roscommon in July, so is better assessed on a debut third at Limerick in May. Grannys Yaris ran a cracker for third when 50/1 at Ballinrobe in July and a reproduction of that effort would have her in the mix. Only A Dollar ran creditably in fourth on hurdling debut at Cork and reverts to a bumper. She certainly won't be available at 66/1 again. Indigo Mist and Lady Danu are newcomers to note in the market.
The eyes are immediately drawn to NT FIELD MINNESOTA, who opened her account in points at the fourth attempt when last seen in April and confidence behind her in the betting on this Rules debut would look highly significant. Jekiki was too free last time but may yet build on her encouraging introduction at Limerick and she gets the nod ahead of Grannys Yaris for forecast purposes.
Nt Field Minnesota will attract most of the spotlight but if JEKIKI bounces back from a dirty scope latest, she could well collect

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.
