Intrepide Sud

2.5
5/2(-33%)
(4) Intrepide Sud 5/2, Fair bumper winner who improved on hurdling debut form when third at Exeter (17f) when last seen in April. Should have more to offer this term and reappears in a very winnable maiden.
Point/bumper winner; good third over hurdles at Exeter last time; leading player.
8
2nd (8) Norn Iron (11/8 +45%)
Norn Iron

1.375
11/8(+45%)
(8) Norn Iron 11/8, Showed a fair bit in Chepstow bumper and 2m Ffos Las novice hurdle towards the end of 2022/23 season for Oliver Sherwood. More to come if all is well, but bred for further and might need this. The betting could guide.
Likely player on the form he showed in spring 2023; absent since.
9
3rd (9) Sunninghill (10/1 +38%)
Sunninghill

10
10/1(+38%)
(9) Sunninghill 10/1, Fair form when making the frame in AW minor events on Flat in 2022 and showed a bit on hurdles debut nearly 2 years on for new yard at Perth (2m) recently, racing rather exuberantly and running out of steam. Could do better.
Modest fourth at Perth last month but may build on that effort.

Holeshot

100
100/1(-300%)
(3) Holeshot 100/1, Maiden pointer, fell last time (Apr 21). Fair jumps pedigree but plenty of improvement required now going hurdling.
0-5 in the point-to-point scene for this yard, albeit has shown bits of promise.

Dreams Fled Away

150
150/1(-50%)
(2) Dreams Fled Away 150/1, One-time fair performer on the Flat but little impact for this yard, including in 2 maiden hurdles this summer.
Holds very weak claims on his Flat/hurdles form for new stable.
14

Kissininthebackrow

12
12/1(+0%)
(14) Kissininthebackrow 12/1, Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Rhythm Is A Dancer (21f-3m winner). Fair handicapper on the Flat, looking a real stayer. She could have a future in this sphere and one to note.
Recent Flat form includes a win and solid effort; half-sister to a jumps winner.
7
7th (7) Law Of The Sea (10/1 +0%)
Law Of The Sea

10
10/1(+0%)
(7) Law Of The Sea 10/1, Fairly useful staying handicapper on the Flat, best run on reappearance in May. From the family of fairly useful jumper (stayed 3m) Lava Lamp, so plenty of hope for him now switching codes.
Out of sorts at present but best Flat form is useful; hurdles debut.
12
8th (12) Outer Banks (7/1 +79%)
Outer Banks

7
7/1(+79%)
(12) Outer Banks 7/1, From the family of fairly useful hurdlers Lisheen Prince (2½m winner) and Jumping Susie (stayed 23f). Made frame both starts in Irish points (latest Apr 27).
Some promise in Irish points; bred to need further than 2m under rules.
11

Elusive Shine

100
100/1(-300%)
(11) Elusive Shine 100/1, £15,000 half-brother to useful hurdler/chaser Palmers Hill (2m-21f winner, by Gold Well). Made frame all 3 starts in Irish points, runner-up on latest (May 18). One to note on hurdles debut.
Showed ability in Irish points in the spring; sold for £15,000 since.

Amico Amore

200
200/1(+0%)
(1) Amico Amore 200/1, Well held in pair of bumpers at the end of 2022 and little impact in pair of AW contests in January back from a year off. Goes hurdling for new yard.
Showed poor form (bumpers/Flat) for Lisa Williamson.

Yourawizardharry

100
100/1(+0%)
(10) Yourawizardharry 100/1, £6,000 4-y-o, Hillstar gelding. Dam pulled up sole start in points. Market may guide for this newcomer.
£6,000 4yo; dam is sibling to four winners; market informative.

11th (6) Jumper Madrik (11/1 +31%)
Jumper Madrik

11
11/1(+31%)
(6) Jumper Madrik 11/1, €80,000 buy for top owner from good French family. Easy to back and probably needed the run on debut in 17f Exeter novice hurdle 10 months ago. Not seen again after and might be brought along gradually.
Absent since heavy defeat at Exeter last November on debut.
13
|PU| (13) Timely Escape (150/1 -50%)
Timely Escape

150
150/1(-50%)
(13) Timely Escape 150/1, Regressive maiden on the Flat and made an unpromising start to his jumps career at Newton Abbot (150/1) 6 weeks ago.
Beaten long way switched to hurdles last time.

13:15 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

INTREPIDE SUD progressed from his first start over the smaller obstacles at Taunton to finish third at Exeter in April and he may have more to offer. Fergal O'Brien's six-year-old looks to have found a suitable opportunity to record his first victory in this sphere. Jafimgoso is a bumper winner who is worth another chance after underperforming on hurdling debut here in June. Of the remainder, Law Of The Sea makes the most appeal.

INTREPIDE SUD took a big step forward when third at Exeter in the spring and should have more to offer, so he might be the way to go returning in a maiden where strong cases can't be made for all that many. Jafimgoso was disappointing on his hurdles debut here in June but is worth another chance for his top yard. Market support for Norn Iron back from a long absence would need noting, while Law of The Sea could have a future in this game.

He was a beaten favourite over C&D last time but JAFIMGOSO is worth another chance. Intrepide Sud and Norn Iron are respected.

1st (2) Emit (7/4 -27%)
Emit

1.75
7/4(-27%)
(2) Emit 7/4, Promising individual. 15/2, third of 12 in maiden at the Curragh (8f, good) 36 days ago. The second from the race has won since and this colt is the one to beat with further progress likely.
Extra furlong should not be a problem and a big player here with the stable in fine form.

Serious Contender

1
1/1(+43%)
(7) Serious Contender 1/1, Promising sort. 11/2, fourth of 7 in maiden at Naas (7f, good to firm) on debut 17 days ago. This stiffer test promises to help unlock improvement and he has to be taken seriously.
Nice debut in a 7f newcomers maiden at Naas last month; Futurity entrant should go well.

Eastwatch

12
12/1(+70%)
(1) Eastwatch 12/1, Foaled January 28. €27,000 yearling, Make Believe gelding. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to useful 5f/6f winner Jamaican Bolt out of smart 7f-1¼m winner (stayed 1½m) Chiming. Entitled to come on for the run.
Bred to stay and might appreciate a bit of give underfoot; best watched though.

Wackestone

25
25/1(+24%)
(8) Wackestone 25/1, Once-raced gelding. 14/1, seventh of 16 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good) on debut 53 days ago, not knocked about. Moving up in trip won't hurt but he's probably more one for handicaps in due course.
Trial winner beaten 9l on debut at Gowran over 7f but can improve from that up in trip.
5
5th (5) Minella Study (50/1 -52%)
Minella Study

50
50/1(-52%)
(5) Minella Study 50/1, Once-raced gelding. Eighth of 10 in maiden at Galway (8.4f, good, 17/2) on debut 26 days ago. Hard to warm to on that back of that low-key introduction.
Well beaten on debut at Galway last month; needs to improve hugely to be a factor.

Maarisha

(9) Maarisha 100/1, Twice-raced filly. Seventh of 16 in claimer at Fairyhouse (7f, good, 100/1) 13 days ago, running on late. Others preferred.
Good run at Fairyhouse; much more needed here and could be one for a nursery after this.

18

(4) Medieval Night 18/1, Twice-raced gelding. 13/2, sixth of 10 in maiden at Galway (8.4f, good) 26 days ago. Hopes pinned on the addition of blinkers sparking improvement here.
Blinkered here and capable of better than his last run but others preferred.

Junkyard Dog

33
33/1(-230%)
(3) Junkyard Dog 33/1, Foaled March 2. Fastnet Rock gelding. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Golden Bungle. Dam, ran once in France, out of Moyglare Stud Stakes winner Necklace. Emit appears to be the stable No 1 but market check advised all the same.
Nicely bred newcomer and one for the future; stable second string here.
6
9th (6) Second Guess (9/1 -64%)
Second Guess

9
9/1(-64%)
(6) Second Guess 9/1, Foaled May 4. Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to several winners, including useful 1¼m winner Grecian Slipper and 9f winner Braemar. Obvious appeal on paper for powerful connections, albeit jockey bookings point to Serious Contender being the yard's first-string.
Superb middle-distance pedigree; has no fancy entries and probably best watched.

Ro Ro

80

Mixture of speed and stamina in her pedigree; best watched here on debut.

13:20 Tipperary Maiden 9f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

EMIT had Medieval Night five lengths behind on debut at Leopardstown and the Joseph O'Brien-trained colt took a step forward on his next start when a creditable third to the long odds-on Acapulco Bay, also over a mile, at the Curragh. The form of that race received a boost when the runner-up Genealogy subsequently went one better at Punchestown. Serious Contender showed promise on debut at Naas and is likely to progress with that experience under his belt, while Aidan O'Brien is also represented by Second Guess, a son of Wootton Bassett and out of a half-sister to Derby winner Workforce.

It could be a case of third time lucky for EMIT, who has shaped well in 1m maidens at Leopardstown and the Curragh, leaving the impression that he will be suited by this slightly stiffer test. The Ballydoyle duo Serious Contender and Second Guess can fill the places, while Emit's stablemate Junkyard Dog needs a second look in the betting.

Preference is for EMIT after showing nice improvement on his second start at the Curragh with this extra furlong likely to be a plus

Jumping Susie

1.2
6/5(+47%)
(3) Jumping Susie 6/5, Career best when winning 12-runner handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (18.9f, good) in July, responding well. Matched that form when third under a penalty at Tramore and wasn't far off that level at Bangor, either, with her rider losing his irons early.

Off the mark at Downpatrick in August and form franked by runner-up; strong claims.

Runner-up three times this season but on long losing sequence and others appeal more.

(1) Kilmore Rock 12/1, First foal, dam unraced. Placed on 2 of 4 starts in points and backed at prices, he made a winning hurdles debut at Hexham in June, holding on gamely. Bare form is ordinary so he looks vulnerable here.
Made on rules debut at Hexham; this is tougher but he's unexposed and not ruled out.

13:30 Kelso Novices Hurdle (Class 4) 21f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Not the deepest of contests and it could be another fine opportunity for STEP OUT. Stuart Crawford's charge had been knocking at the door prior to winning at Downpatrick in August so any further improvement can see him go in again. Jumping Susie finished a creditable third at Tramore before occupying the same position at Bangor last month. John McConnell's mare is the main danger in receipt of 2lb, while Hexham scorer Kilmore Rock appeals most of the remainder.

BEL AMIGO's French form marks him out as the pick at these weights so it's worth siding that he will be fit enough on return from 6 months off to get the job done here. Irish-raiders Jumping Susie and Step Out are the obvious alternatives.

The form of STEP OUT's breakthrough win at Downpatrick in August has been franked by the runner-up and he is taken to follow up.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

13:40 Killarney Maiden Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SPECULATRIX concedes a penalty on her hurdling debut, but showed quite useful bumper form last season and contests this winnable maiden. By the same sire as Allaho and a 115,000-euro three-year-old, she won on debut in February and again showed capable ability in finishing sixth in a Grade 2 Aintree bumper. While ultimately well held at the Punchestown Festival, she is proven on soft ground and encouragingly reappears at an early part of the winter season. Modest Flat performer Fair Damsel and Spanish Maid are closely matched on Tipperary form in May but shouldn't trouble the selection, while stablemates Ad Caelum and Love Like This have place claims.

SPECULATRIX has some fairly useful winning bumper form to her name so is taken to go in at the first time of asking over hurdles for her top yard. Fair Damsel and Love Like This appeal as the pick of those with experience and can chase home Gordon Elliott's newcomer in that order.

On the form of her Grade 2 effort at Aintree in April, the Gigginstown-owned SPECULATRIX is in a different league to these rivals.

13:50 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

ACE OF SPADES struck in commanding style in a bumper at Worcester on his most recent start and he is now sent over the smaller obstacles. The son of Dink has improved with each run to date and it would be no surprise to see him make an instant impression over hurdles. Nowmelad has hit the crossbar the last twice and would be foolish to dismiss, while any market support behind Woodstock City should be noted too.

ACE OF SPADES arrives with a solid profile from bumpers and his half-brother Tahmuras took well to hurdling, so he's worth a chance to make a winning start in this sphere. Fellow hurdling newcomer Electric Mason is an obvious danger and Sonification is most appealing of those with experience.

The most interesting prospect in this pack is nicely bred ACE OF SPADES. Second choice is solid contender Nowmelad.

13:55 Tipperary Handicap 9f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

PASSIONATE relished soft ground when scoring by six lengths at Killarney back in May and should have conditions to suit given the forecast rain. She again shaped well when third at Punchestown last month and is preferred to Simply Sideways, who won this race 12 months ago and again showed her liking for soft ground when gaining a sixth career win at Gowran earlier this year. The lightly-raced Fleetfoot is held in high regard by connections and should benefit from his reappearance at the Curragh last month. Complete Fiction and Camelot Alexander are others to consider.

If PASSIONATE responds well to the new headgear she could be the answer to this tricky-looking handicap. She wasn't at her best at Cork recently but that was still a respectable effort and this filly certainly arrives here in better form than the majority of her rivals. Last year's winner Simply Sideways and French recruit Titanium both need to get back on track but they will be serious threats if able to do so.

The ground could well be soft, which should suit last year's winner SIMPLY SIDEWAYS, who races off just a 2lb higher mark

14:05 Kelso Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Oceanline arrives having notched up a brace of successes at Worcester but, although respected from a 7lb raised mark, it is FAMOUS LISS who shades preference. The unexposed six-year-old was narrowly denied over 2m at Hexham when last seen in June. He goes handicapping from a workable mark and with a step up in trip likely to benefit him, it would come as no surprise were Stuart Coltherd's charge to find the necessary improvement. Shared is another to consider.

SHARED has won first time up for the last 2 seasons and can repeat the feat here. He ran well in a stronger event at Warwick when last seen in May and has untapped potential over this sort of trip. Famous Liss is potentially a big improver now handicapping up in distance and is strongly respected on his return, while Faithfulflyer should go well again here.

Rebecca Menzies' horses are running well and the lightly raced 7yo HARPER VALLEY is selected to make a winning return from a break.

14:15 Killarney Handicap Hurdle 17f  Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Most of the form horses won't be suited by likely testing conditions and while GEKKOTA would prefer good ground, he has form on soft and ran well last month. He returned from almost a year off this summer and a reproduction of his Galway effort would give him sound claims. Four-year-old Nicholas Street has been absent since running well on handicap debut in July but has, at least, run on testing ground. Capable chaser Kings Halo is undoubtedly well handicapped in this sphere and while he relishes testing conditions, needs a longer distance and made his seasonal reappearance in this race last year - finishing fifth. Eastmore, Say It So, Due Course and Bayou Belle have been running well, but on summer ground.

EASTMORE tooked a marked step forward when runner-up in a Down Royal handicap last time and, with few miles on the clock, he can find enough improvement to open his account here. Due Course and Bayou Belle are the chief dangers.

Third behind a longer-priced stablemate at Listowel, SAY IT SO can keep up the good work for the in-form Eric McNamara yard

14:25 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

TRAVELING SOLDIER shaped with plenty of promise to be touched off by a length into second at Perth in May and he would have learned a great deal from that experience. Olly Murphy's six-year-old might only need to find normal improvement in order to go one better. Je Viens Du Large is a point-to-point winner who warrants a market check on his first start under Rules, while Bredon Hill is another to keep an eye on.

JE VIENS DU LARGE was an easy winner of a point in the spring and if he translates that ability to hurdling, he could well be the answer to this. Disco Davis would likely have landed a novice at Worcester had he negotiated the second last and he's an obvious danger, along with Traveling Soldier.

Disco Davis has a good chance granted a clear round this time. TRAVELING SOLDIER is the solid alternative on hurdles form.

The ease in the ground is likely to suit but has to prove he is up to this class.

14:30 Tipperary Listed 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

POWER UNDER ME has been a great servant to connections and gained a sixth career win on his penultimate start over 7f at Naas. He will appreciate the anticipated cut in the ground and hopefully can bounce back after a disappointing effort in a Group 2 at Leopardstown last time. Chicago Critic appears adaptable in terms of ground conditions and is an obvious threat if reproducing his highly-creditable third to Haatem in the Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot. Follow Me won twice at the Curragh earlier this year, including on soft ground, but has been soundly beaten on both outings since. There isn't much to choose between Princess Child, Fleur De Chine and Mexicali Rose on running behind Curvature at Listowel last month.

MAMMAS GIRL wasn't beaten at all far in the Matron at Leopardstown and she will have every chance if able to back that effort up now back down in class. The Havana Grey filly earns the vote ahead of Chicago Critic, who found the Lennox too much at Glorious Goodwood but he was on the up prior to that. Power Under Me is also shortlisted, while Princess Child and Vera's Secret both make each-way appeal.

Preference is for MAMMAS GIRL, who has improved for blinkers and will be hard to beat if she can reproduce her run in the Matron

14:40 Kelso Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

YOKKELL has taken well to hurdling since having her attentions switched from the Flat. A winner at Down Royal in August, the daughter of Fast Company went on to fill the runner-up spot at Warwick last month. The booking of Harry Cobden catches the eye and with a hood applied for the first time, she could regain the winning thread. Another High Five hit the crossbar in a point-to-point in April and market support should be noted ahead of his Rules debut. Iorangi De L'isle completes the shortlist.

Ex-Flat performer YOKKELL cemented a solid start to her hurdles career when runner-up at Warwick 12 days ago and she's very much the one to beat. Point-recruits Another High Five and Lyle View may emerge as the chief threats.

The useful Flat performer YOKKELL is taken to make it 2-3 over hurdles and add to her win at Down Royal in August.

14:50 Killarney Maiden Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

AL GASPARO is top-weight but is a previous C&D winner and, crucially given likely testing conditions, has form on heavy ground. He routed his rivals in winning here in May and while well held subsequently at Galway, ran well in a winners' race at Worcester last month and won't be too inconvenienced by the ground. Lieber Nicc's best form has been achieved on a sound surface but he was placed on soft last January, while Master Otis disappointed at Galway but had previously shown useful handicap form at Fairyhouse and has also been placed on soft ground. Chutzpal's recent form is on a sound surface.

Henry de Bromhead's CHUTZPAL is on a roll and fancied to secure his four-timer after posting a career best when landing the hat-trick at Wexford. Rocky's Diamond appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of Lieber Nicc and Drumgill.

A punt is taken on MASTER OTIS who won his novice well at Cork on good and his Leopardstown neck second on soft gives him a chance.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

All of these make their chasing debuts with the vote going the way of L'EAU DU SUD on the pick of his form over hurdles. This six-year-old ended last season with a commendable fifth in the Scottish Champion Hurdle at Ayr and has every chance on today's terms if taking to the larger obstacles. Rambo T made good strides over timber last term culminating in a convincing win at Perth, while Rare Edition has gone well fresh before and is preferred to Uncle Bert.

All 4 were useful over hurdles but L'EAU DU SUD is likely to have too much pace for these over this trip. Rare Edition is next best.

Four very talented hurdlers make their chasing debuts. RARE EDITION looks the best suited by today's trip-and-ground combination.

15:05 Tipperary Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FEUD boasts an impressive pedigree being a Dubawi half-brother to Fallen Angel and has taken really well to hurdles for Richard O'Brien, winning a Listowel maiden and a Galway Festival novice. The form of that latter success has worked out quite well and he can take a further step up the ladder at the expense of Gaucher. The Frankel gelding doesn't help himself by racing keenly and has had his limitations exposed since winning easily at Punchestown, while stablemate Chart Topper was a wide-margin winner on his hurdles debut at Downpatrick. Sunchart was the pick of these on the Flat, winning a Listed race at Naas this spring, and opened his account at the second attempt over hurdles at Wexford last time.

FEUD has taken extremely well to hurdles and is taken to make it 3-3 in this sphere, with the Willie Mullins-trained duo Chart Topper and Gaucher feared most in that order of preference. Littlebiggie perhaps lacks the potential of some of these but she looks solid nonetheless and should make her presence felt.

The 4yo FEUD can make it 3-3 hurdling if handling likely softer ground. Confirmed mudlark Sunchart could prove the danger

DO NO WRONG made the frame in this grade over an extended 2m5f here last month and he is only 1lb higher for that performance. Justin Landy's eight-year-old has lots in his favour in his bid to regain the winning thread. Universal Folly was beaten into third in a class 3 event at Perth last time and could go closer now that he takes a drop in class. Breaking The Ice is another to consider.

DO NO WRONG appeals as the most solid option, though Breaking The Ice arrives in good heart, while Captain Quint can go well fresh starting out for a new yard.

The 6yo JEM IN EM should be capable of much better than he showed on last month's chase debut here, especially now back up in trip.

A chance is taken that IRON ALLEN might return to form because he could be well suited by conditions. Winner of a soft-ground unplaced horses' maiden at Naas last December, the ex-winning point-to-pointer remains somewhat unexposed over staying distances and although he has top weight, he contests a winnable handicap for new connections, under an experienced 5lb claimer. In theory, Temptationinmilan is well handicapped in this sphere as he is rated 108 over fences, but is a 13-race hurdles maiden. He does have form on testing ground so should compete. Technology ran well on his Irish debut in August, but has been well beaten in three previous UK runs on testing ground.

THE STRIKER DYLAN has shown improved form this season, shaping better than the result when again making the frame at Wexford on his latest outing, so he is taken to get off the mark this time around. He can reverse the Wexford form with Technology, who finished ahead of the selection when runner-up on his stable debut, while Padraigs Boy also merits consideration.

If sustaining the improvement shown at Wexford in August, TECHNOLOGY can score here by upholding form with The Striker Dylan

(4) Lihyan 2/1, Picked up a second win of the season in 14-runner handicap at Worcester (23f) last time. Up 4 lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood.
Not all races pan out suitably for come-from-last tactics but he won in May and September.

(5) Bells Of Peterboro 9/2, Dual scorer last season, signing off with another victory at Chepstow (23.6f, good to soft) in April. Has acquitted himself with credit after a break previously so ought to be thereabouts.
Well suited by Chepstow where he's had his last four wins, the last two as chaser in 2024.

Second at Newbury this March was off 3lb higher than today, so a case can still be made.

15:35 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 23f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

LIHYAN has the advantage of a recent outing under his belt. Rebecca Menzies' charge won nicely at Worcester last month and looks to have solid claims once again, despite a 4lb rise. A winner at Market Rasen in August, Hardy Boy was well held when only fourth at Bangor last time and Bells Of Peterboro may prove a bigger threat. The latter scored at over fences at Chepstow in April and returns to action raised only 2lb.

SUPREMELY WEST improved markedly last season, scoring twice, and is taken to start out again in style here. Worcester-victor Lihyan is next on the list ahead of Bells of Peterboro and Hardy Boy.

This race may provide the right opportunity for SUPREMELY WEST to go one better and win his first handicap. Hardy Boy is next best.

15:40 Tipperary Conditions Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Paul Townend stays loyal to DADDY LONG LEGS, who won three times as a novice last season, including a handicap at the Punchestown Festival, but has questions to answer after two disappointing runs. He dropped out tamely when a hot favourite over C&D in the Grade 3 won easily by Winter Fog in July, with Senecia well behind in fourth, before losing his chance at the start in the Galway Hurdle. Winter Fog had the patiently-ridden Mighty Tom just under three lengths behind when fourth under a big weight at Ballybrit, while Smooth Tom is an admirable dual-purpose gelding but faces a stiff task at the weights.

Paul Townend keeps the faith with DADDY LONG LEGS and his decision may well be vindicated. Indeed, the 5-y-o will prove hard to beat if returning to the level he showed when landing a big-field handicap at the Punchestown Festival in April. Stablemate Winter Fog was a wide-margin C&D winner during the summer and, having performed with credit on the Flat the last twice, he rates the main danger ahead of Mighty Tom.

Daddy Long Legs has a bit to prove, especially on soft, so stablemate WINTER FOG looks a more solid option

15:50 Kelso Handicap Chase (Class 2) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

FRINGILL DIKE accounted for his nearest rival by a whopping 27 lengths at Newton Abbot in August and he remains in the same grade. If he can run to anywhere near that level again, he could prove very tough to beat. Guy made it two wins from his last three starts when victorious over C&D back in the spring and should mount another bold bid, while Breizh River is another to note.

TRAPRAIN LAW quickly developed into a useful chaser last season, pressing the leader a long way out when runner-up at Ayr in April, and he is taken to make a winning return with more still to offer over fences. He can reverse the form with Tommy's Oscar from when the pair met at Ayr, with Fringill Dike also in the mix.

There's a good chance that FRINGILL DIKE (nap) will catch a few of these cold. Tommy's Oscar's yard has a fine record in the race.

16:00 Killarney Handicap Chase 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ANOTHER OCANA will have plenty of help from the sky this weekend as he makes his seasonal reappearance on suitably testing ground. A dual point-to-point winner, he seemed better than ever when reverting to a similar distance to this, scoring at Limerick last April, and while his lack of a recent outing is a small concern, he might still defy a 7lb rise. Ten-time winning 10-year-old Itsalonglongroad continues in good form and is ground-versatile, but his mark has climbed back to 108 following his recent Ballinrobe success and he hasn't competed at that rating for over two years. General Clermont has good recent form and has placed on yielding to soft, although he wouldn't like really testing conditions.

SKIPPIN COURT has yet to win over fences but he took a big step back in the right direction after a short break when fourth in a better race than this at Listowel 2 weeks ago so he could be the answer. Last-time-out winners Itsalonglongroad and Another Ocana head the dangers.

TIME MARCHES ON will handle testing ground and if he jumps better than he did last time out, he is capable of going close here.

HOME FREE produced a fluent display of jumping on his chasing bow when finishing a creditable second at Hexham in May. There looks more to come over fences having subsequently undergone a wind operation and he looks the one to side with. Llandinabo Lad is potentially well treated on his previous placed efforts over fences and could make his presence felt, while Quick Sharpener showed progressive form over hurdles back in 2023 and makes his chasing debut having switched yards since.

HOME FREE made a promising start over fences when second at Hexham in May and he's taken to go one better with improvement likely. Jeudidee has endured a luckless start over fences, having little go right at Worcester last month, so may emerge as the biggest threat.

Hexham runner-up HOME FREE (nap) is taken to show progress and go one better. Jeudidee is second choice.

16:15 Tipperary Handicap Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

EXTENSIO won his only hurdle start in a Roscommon maiden last summer and has progressed well since on the Flat, notably winning a valuable handicap last time at the York Ebor meeting. The Pat O'Donnell-trained gelding is now rated 92 on the level and could be on a reasonable mark back over flights. Presenting Lad has been in good form this year and added to two chase wins when successful over hurdles at Kilbeggan last month. The lightly-raced Old Bill Barley was about three lengths back in third, but didn't enjoy much luck in running and may reverse the form. The Niffler won over C&D in May, while Expound and Vischio are two light-weights who also appeal.

The most interesting one is EXTENSIO, who landed a Roscommon maiden on his sole start in this sphere to date last summer and he has won three times on the Flat since, including a valuable handicap at the York Ebor meeting in August. Expound also landed a maiden hurdles on his latest start over timber and he is a much-respected main danger. Belle The Lioness and Old Bill Barley are others to consider.

The prospect of soft ground mitigates against Extensio so bottom-weight VISCHIO gets the vote

16:25 Kelso Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

O'GRADY'S HILL has filled the runner-up berth on all three outings under Rules and an opening mark of 99 looks workable. Harry Derham's mare will appreciate the rise in distance and she is expected be fresh following an 81-day break. Theirshegoes appeared to be finding her feet when opening her account at Uttoxeter in June and although subsequently unseating her rider at that same venue, it shouldn't prevent a prominent showing. Market support for stable debutant Iwa on this return to hurdling would be interesting.

Lots with chances. O'GRADY'S HILL is fancied to build on previous promise now stepping into handicap company for the first time and gain a first win under Rules. The consistent Malangen could emerge as the main danger to Harry Derham's mare, with the handily-weighted Rickety Gate and in-form maiden Nastasiya also in the picture.

This can go to THEIRSHEGOES, who won at Uttoxeter in June on her last completed start. O'Grady's Hill is second choice.

16:35 Killarney Maiden Chase 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

THE GREAT UNKNOWN can make a winning start to her chasing career. A close-up third on her sole point-to-point run, the Henry de Bromhead-trained mare showed up well in some decent maiden hurdles over the winter. Although failing to get competitive when sent off favourite on her recent handicap debut at Tramore, the five-year-old was entitled to need that first outing since April. Pictures Of Home, who has plenty of experience over fences, has to be of interest in first-time blinkers. The Ted Walsh-trained gelding is a strong stayer who will see out every yard of this trip. Roscommon second Fremantle Doctor is entitled to come on from that initial run over fences. The winner of that aforementioned race franked the form with two subsequent victories.

The return to fences will surely see FREMANTLE DOCTOR in a better light and on his Roscommon run, he'll take some stopping in this. The Great Unknown's hurdles form is ordinary but he's sure to know his job now chasing so he could be the chief threat.

Rain won't be an issue for MALINAS GLORY. He likes testing ground, he has gone well fresh before and he has experience over fences.

16:45 Uttoxeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

GETTHEPOT defeated Get With It (second) at Worcester last month and while that reopposing rival was unable to go one better at Warwick next time, the former could confirm his superiority despite a 5lb raised mark. Prince Cleni weakened late on over 3m2f at Newton Abbot, but he could pose a greater threat now dropped in trip. Chasing debutant Jolie Baie is another to note.

GET WITH IT has been shaping up well since joining Dan Skelton, making the frame all 3 starts including when third at Warwick 12 days ago, so he could be ready to return to winning ways back up in trip. Unwanted Attention had been going the right way prior to last time so is worth another chance, with School For Scandal completing the shortlist.

Getthepot and Get With It should figure prominently but PRINCE CLENI who has come to himself again on his last three outings.

16:50 Tipperary Maiden Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SHECOULDBEANYTHING won five times over hurdles and has taken well to fences, following up a Galway second to Jesse Evans by easily scoring over 2m3f at Listowel last month. A Penny A Hundred has a similar profile over fences having made all for an easy win at Ballinrobe and won't lack for stamina, while Gorgeous Tom made a successful start over the larger obstacles when beating Monbeg Park at Wexford and is preferred to stablemate Music Of Tara. Gaelic Arc likes to force the pace and would have a big chance if recapturing the form of his handicap triumph at Killarney in July.

SHECOULDBEANYTHING is a useful performer over hurdles and looks set to make her mark in this sphere, too, having built on her encouraging chase debut when cosily seeing off four rivals in a mares' novice at Listowel. She is taken to follow up here, perhaps at the chief expense of Gorgeous Tom, who made the perfect start over fences at Wexford and he should have more to offer. A Penny A Hundred is third choice ahead of Gorgeous Tom's stablemate Music of Tara.

The highest-rated hurdler, SHECOULDBEANYTHING (nap) has taken well to chasing and with conditions to suit looks the one to beat

17:00 Kelso Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 21f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Double Powerful scored with something up his sleeve when completing a brace at Market Rasen in March. A 10lb hike in the ratings shouldn't prevent another bold bid from the five-year-old but, at the forecast prices, it could be worth taking a punt on CAPTAIN MARCO. Tim Vaughan's new recruit makes the long journey north and he looks just the type to benefit from a summer on his back. Summergrounds and Dalileo are also noted.

DOUBLE POWERFUL was improving fast when last seen and he comes back from 6 months off for an in-form stable, so he's preferred to Dalileo, who ran with credit at Perth recently. Summergrounds is also likely to give a good account.

The most likely winner on 2024 evidence appears to be DOUBLE POWERFUL and the most likely to chase him home is Summergrounds.

17:10 Killarney Handicap Chase 24f  Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Given the excellent form of the Eric McNamara stable, MY FRIEND THE WIND has to hold strong claims. Twice a winner over hurdles, the nine-year-old looks nicely treated off a chase mark which is 13lb lower. Although yet to get his head in front over fences, the gelding has been placed on two occasions. Following a promising fifth in a handicap chase at Ballinrobe last month, he should be spot-on for this assignment. The locally-trained Definiteadare can readily be forgiven a below-par run at Tramore as he was running from 14lb out of the handicap. Back in his own grade, with Michael O'Sullivan remaining loyal, Charles Coakley's gelding has to be respected. Da Big Fella, owned and trained by the race sponsor, is sure to have been laid out for this particular meeting.

DEFINITEADARE has dipped in the weights and could be worth chancing back at the scene of his last success under Michael O'Sullivan. Man of The House and A Nod To Getaway are a couple of others to consider.

DONNRUA DREAM gets the nod. He ran well here for his former yard, handles bad ground and can go close if fit after a break.

17:20 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

PROLIFIC PROFILE returned from an absence to win at Bangor last month and with the prospect of more to come, a 6lb rise might not be enough to stop him. Twp Stori has been given a break since occupying the runner-up berth over a mile further here but still has to enter the equation. George Mallory is a C&D winner so can't be dismissed lightly, and Bushmill Boy should be in the mix too.

NED CASH ended last term below par but starts life for his in-form new yard on a lenient mark so is worth siding with in a very open handicap. Newton Abbot scorer Daany is next on the list ahead of in-form duo Colonel Lesley and Prolific Profile.

It's worth chancing EMBOLDEN, who was placed under James Bowen off 6lb higher in this race last year and has won when fresh before.

17:25 Tipperary NH Flat Race 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

AL ARRIVEE gets the vote to make a winning debut for the champion trainer. The daughter of Tunis is a half-sister to one of the Closutton maestro's biggest achievers in dual Gold Cup winner Al Boum Photo. Kilda Kelle cost 100,000 euros at Goffs last year and is related to a number of French bumper winners, while Shadows Of My Mind is another newcomer to note being out of a winning sister to smart jumper Midnight Shadow. Tangara Bay beat all bar the odds-on Seo Linn on debut at Ballinrobe, while Montana Blue had a couple of these rivals behind when also filling the runner-up spot on her only outing at Wexford this summer.

The vote goes to newcomer SHADOWS OF MY MIND, who represents a yard with a 22% strike rate in Irish bumpers in recent years and this filly, who fetched €62,000 last year, is a half-sister to bumper/hurdles winner Shelikesthelights. Al Arrivee is another likely-looking debutante for whom market support would be an ominous sign for the others, and she is feared most ahead of Tangara Bay, who is the most appealing of those with experience on the back of her promising debut second at Ballinrobe.

The one to be on could be TANGARA BAY, who ran into a potentially nice filly at Ballinrobe on debut and could well improve enough

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.
