LTO Selection:

16:55 Wexford Maiden Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

RIVER TARA is one to take seriously on hurdling debut. She built upon a close second in a Kilbeggan bumper to land a Downpatrick bumper by an emphatic eight lengths, and ought to give connections plenty of fun over hurdles. Duleek Street has two runner-up berths in Downpatrick maiden hurdles to call upon and should be heavily involved. Dutch Schultz ran into a very useful horse in Bellewstown, but finished best of the rest in second, while Henry de Bromhead has won two of the last four renewals of this race, so a good run from his Callie Mannon on debut wouldn't be surprising.

RIVER TARA showed progressive form in bumpers and makes plenty of appeal now switching to hurdles for her top stable. She gets the vote, with Duleek Street and Dutch Schultz considered the main threats.

RIVER TARA opened her account in a bumper last time and should be hard to beat if she finds any further progress now hurdling

LTO Selection:

17:30 Wexford Handicap Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

NAVIGATOR JACK's sole victory came over a similar trip in Listowel last year. His second place on penultimate start in Bellewstown reads well as the winner followed up in Roscommon this week. Navigator Jack was beaten into fifth when last seen in Killarney, but that was in a much higher grade. Florey Spud could bounce back from an underwhelming effort in Ballinrobe. He made no impression in rear of mid-division, however, he sustained a superficial wound during the race. He is better assessed on two runner-up finishes over an extended 3m at this track and over 2m4f in Sligo. He is very much at home on better ground. Star Official is up in trip after being beaten nine lengths into second at Limerick. Reserves Emily In Paris and Brianna Lily would have a part to play if getting a run. The former would be a serious player after winning a maiden hurdle in Killarney on the back of three runner-up finishes.

The vote goes to NAVIGATOR JACK, who has been knocking on the door in recent months and he has as good a chance as any in this contest. Star Official produced his best effort yet in this sphere when runner-up at Limerick recently and will be a threat if building on that. Florey Spud is 0-13 over hurdles but has hit the crossbar on several occasions and he is also shortlisted, along with likely improver Mastermacblack.

STAR OFFICIAL arrives on the back of a career best and he shaped like he would relish going back up in distance here

18:05 Wexford Handicap Hurdle 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

TANGO THEATRE ran well in third at Kilbeggan and Limerick, and has a shot at an elusive first track success. This former point-to-point winner should be staying on stronger than most over this staying trip. Ocean Legacy has a course victory in her locker and also won over a trip just short of 3m at Downpatrick in May, so has decent claims. Jesina arrives on the back of a victory over an extended 2m5f at Ballinrobe in July. Previous attempts over further have been inconclusive, but this isn't a deep race. Second-reserve Mr Social showed more in fourth at Downpatrick and takes a further step up in trip.

SARAH BEARA has caught the eye a bit in her qualifying runs and might be able to improve past the likes of last month's Ballinrobe scorer Jesina and John McConnell's Tango Theatre and make a successful start to her handicap career for the Sam Curling yard.

Having shown improved form when third over 2m4f at Killarney last time, MAN AFTER MIDNIGHT can improve enough to score.

LTO Selection:

18:40 Wexford Beginners Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

RIAAN is of interest on chasing debut. This six-year-old gelding won twice over hurdles at Cork and Thurles and is related to a five-time winner over fences, so should have a future in this sphere. Decent ground holds no fears for him. The 129-rated Percy Warner is entitled to be well in the mix. He has been off since coming home sixth in a Grade B novice handicap chase at Navan in March and, prior to that, faced some tough tasks in beginners' chases. Although he has been extensively campaigned on slower ground, he won his point-to-point on good to yielding going. He has also won twice over hurdles. Rexem was pitched into graded company after winning a couple of hurdle races and adds plenty to this race.

PERCY WARNER's stamina was stretched upped to 23.5f on deep ground at Navan when last seen in March and he may well open his chase account now back down in trip on better ground. Chase debutants Rexem and Riaan are both feared, particularly the former who scored twice over hurdles last summer and he was a winner of his sole start between the flags in 2021. Tempo Chapter and Flaming Moon are others to consider.

PERCY WARNER (nap) has already achieved a rating of 129 and Henry de Bromhead's 7yo should appreciate a drop in trip here

LTO Selection:

19:15 Wexford Handicap Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

WESTERN COWBOY is entitled to come on plenty from his comeback run in fourth at this track in June. That was his first run for 10 months and this represents a drop in class from the 0-130 handicap chases he has competed in on his last couple of outings. He gets first-time cheekpieces. Top Line Tommy will enjoy this ground and won a beginners' chase at Tramore in June before finishing second in an opportunity handicap chase at Clonmel. He has solid credentials under man of the moment Danny Gilligan. Iridescent put in a good effort to win a handicap chase over further at Downpatrick on his first crack at fences. He's up in class and there is improvement to come in his jumping, but he has a chance. Hascoeur Clermont and Downtown Queen are out of form, but capable of putting it all together.

LE MALIN performed about as well as could've been expected at the Cheltenham Festival in March and he is appealing now pitched into a handicap chase for the first time off a potentially handy mark. Next on the list is Top Line Tommy, who should give a good account back in this sphere following a spin over hurdles last time. Iridescent, a winner of his sole chase start at Downpatrick in June, is open to improvement over fences and is also accorded respect.

TOP LINE TOMMY is a big player after a career best when he was last seen over fences and his subsequent hurdle run is best forgiven

LTO Selection:

19:50 Wexford Handicap Chase 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ITWASFATE drops back in trip and it could work the oracle on his third start over fences, as he won his maiden hurdle over just short of 2m at Kilbeggan. His trainer, Henry de Bromhead, has landed the last two renewals of this race. Irish Blaze sports a hood for the first time and it could help him to settle and get home. He has ability, but has been racing clear off the front before tiring. He may not get everything his own way up front with Jack Holiday in the field, so settling will be crucial. Danny Gilligan's 5lb claim is a bonus. Berliet Express is up in class, but running consistently well over fences and is dangerous off a light weight. Itwasfate's stablemate, Freddie Robdal, won by the minimum margin at Tramore in April and is in the hunt for prize money.

BERLIET EXPRESS has been in excellent form over fences this summer and wasn't disgraced on the Flat at Gowran last time, so he takes preference over Itwasfate, who is capable of better switched to handicapping for the first time in this sphere. Irish Blaze is a danger on his best form.

He's a long-standing maiden but LOOK DONT TOUCH looks like a big player on h'cap debut having shown promise in 3 recent chase starts

LTO Selection:

20:25 Wexford NH Flat Race 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MEET MY LORELEY could be a useful recruit for Barry Connell. She won a point-to-point for previous connections and then put in an excellent effort in second at 50/1 in a bumper at Thurles in December. Several winners have come out of that race. Traditude Tara represents Willie and Patrick Mullins and is an obvious danger on racecourse debut. Trainer Mullins is in absolutely dominant form in bumpers this season. Mount Shenshan was reluctant to race in Limerick, but did make up some noticeable late ground and has a place chance particularly if jumping off with the field.

TRADITUDE TARA is out of a bumper winner and is taken to make a sucessful start at the likely expense of Meet My Loreley in a race that the pair should dominate.

MEET MY LORELEY sets a decent standard on her second in a bumper last winter and will take some beating if repeating that form.

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.
