(1) (1/1 +0%)Chart Topper |
1/1(+0%) | (1) Chart Topper 1/1, Did plenty early, didn't find much after bad error, needed run on chase debut when comfortably held in a beginners' chase here last time; stays 3m1f, likes a sound surface but acts on soft; should come on for return, big player here upped in trip. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (5/2 +25%)Da Capo Glory |
5/2(+25%) | (2) Da Capo Glory 5/2, Stopped quickly having briefly threatened and comfortably held in the Dolphin Hurdle at Cork last time; in good form prior over fences; returning from a break; effective 2m3f-3m1f, acts on heavy and good; not ruled out back chasing now. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (7/2 +22%)Will Do |
7/2(+22%) | (5) Will Do 7/2, Yard has won 4 of last 10 runnings of race; returned to form back from a break when 7l third in a beginners' chase at Listowel most recent run; effective 3m-3m6f, acts on heavy and good; useful but exposed maiden over fences. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

(6) (50/1 +0%)Survivors Sister |
50/1(+0%) | (6) Survivors Sister 50/1, Fell when keeping on, may have placed, in a handicap chase here latest; effective 2m5f-3m2f, acts on heavy and good; others rated higher here, needs more. |

CHART TOPPER should be all the wiser for his fifth-placed chase bow over an inadequate 2m2f here 19 days ago. The Walk In The Park gelding will relish this greater emphasis on stamina and should have the beating of these rivals judged on his hurdle mark. Although Will Do is winless in 17 attempts over fences, a repeat of his latest third at Listowel may see him serving the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Da Capo Glory.

Although not seen since making a winning Rules debut at Haydock last December, WESTERN MONKEY has all the hallmarks of a smart prospect. An official mark of 125 could prove to be lenient for the seven-year-old, for all that he is the most inexperienced runner in the field. Brookside La made light work of the opposition on his seasonal bow at Worcester and is progressing nicely. Dan Skelton's charge is feared most, although the downgraded Keable is a live each-way alternative.

9/1(+0%) | (10) Mullaghgloss 9/1, Fell in a beginners chase chase at Gowran Park latest when beataen; effective at around 2m; useful handicap hurdler, should come on for latest, danger if stamina holds up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

NO LOOKING BACK may be worth a shot in an open affair. Oliver McKiernan's charge bounced back to form with a narrow defeat over hurdles at Fairyhouse recently and the Kingston Hill gelding looks on a workable mark for his chase debut. Caher Roes Den also makes his chasing bow having won nicely over timber at Galway on his penultimate outing. He commands plenty of respect, while Long Branch could build on his fourth over these fences back in May and he's another to note, along with Arcland.

25/1(+38%) | (1) Mags Ocean 25/1, At fast pace, weakened and pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Worcester latest; hood first time; effective 2m, acts on good to soft; some promise in only bumper start, needs more now hurdling. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

MOORE BRION could prove a useful recruit to the hurdling ranks. The convincing winner of both starts in bumpers, Olly Murphy's charge hails from a family of winning hurdlers in France and the son of Doctor Dino is taken to keep his unbeaten record intact. Kaldoun Des Rocs has shown ability in three starts over timber. He's a likely improver on his return to the fray having undergone a wind operation, while Military Cross and Running Happy are others of interest.

Having ended her novice chase campaign with two victories from her final three outings, Crecora Hills must rank highly on the shortlist. The seven-year-old should have more to come as a second-season chaser and isn't taken lightly with Harry Cobden in the plate, but race-fit Sligo winner ONLY FOR OUR MAN edges the vote. Paul Nolan's inmate is entitled to build on that chase bow and might be able to defy an 11lb hike from the assessor. Folly Master could also feature now back over a more suitable distance.

125/1(+0%) | (6) Petit Galet 125/1, Green, found little, poor run when well beaten in a bumper at Wincanton only start; hood first time; absent for very lengthy period; flat bred; plenty to prove including stamina. |

Brace For Landing is sure to find these calmer waters more to his liking than last season's final appearance when 10th in the Imperial Cup. Dan Skelton's inmate has also undergone a wind procedure and isn't taken lightly, but ORDER ON TIME appears to have more potential. The Order Of St George gelding was impressive when spreadeagling the field on his bumper bow at Chepstow 206 days ago and a bright future beckons. Allfor and point-to-point winner Titi Montmartre are others of interest.

Jack Kennedy is an eye-catching booking for WATCH THE WEATHER. The Kayf Tara gelding has placed on his last four outings, and he reverts to the larger obstacles only 1lb higher than when third in a tougher chase at Kilbeggan last month. Luimneach returned the ready winner at Gowran last time and he's entitled to be a big player again despite a 9lb hike for that success, while Miss Doyenne will be sharper for her recent run and is preferred to Fountain House and The Great Nudie.

DON DANDY showed bags of ability on his three starts over hurdles in France. He's switched to Olly Murphy's in-form yard since returning the comfortable winner at Compiegne in April and is fancied to defy a penalty on his reappearance. Minella Buoy also debuts for his new stable having placed in all four starts over timber in ireland, including at Listowel last month. He looks sure to get involved, while See Blue switches from the Flat and is one to note on his hurdling bow.

Harry Cobden rides the Robert Tyner-trained Harty Cup who races in the McManus colours, and with the five-year-old having his first start since finishing third at Wexford off this mark in March. He won by six lengths at Clonmel in February and looks all set for a good season, but preference lies with POTTERS PAL, a winner over fences at Listowel last month. He won over the smaller obstacles in March when they first added a hood and looks to have every chance. Springboard also won last time out when successful here over fences. He's hard to ignore off his hurdles rating and could finish third.

15/2(+0%) | (4) Dance And Glance 15/2, Yard won this last year; improved again beaten 2l off a 1lb lower mark at Haydock last time; suited by 2m on sound surface; in form, revised mark will demand more switched to fences on ground softer than ideal. |

Having returned with a victory at Market Rasen last month, chase debutant UN SENS A LA VIE should put his race fitness to good use. The son of Muhtathir has the stamp of a chaser and boasts a point-to-point victory back in October 2024, so he looks capable of following up in this discipline. Dangers are aplenty, spearheaded by Dovecote winner Klub De Reve, who is chasing a hat-trick. Grade 2 hurdle runner-up Taurus Bay and Swinton third Dance And Glance add further spice to the mix.

Just one of these has form in the book and Hansel The Purse may improve from his initial effort, when fourth at Punchestown 11 days ago. Saying that, there are some interesting newcomers and Gavin Cromwell's in-form yard may be able to bag this with TEN GEARS. The son of Ten Sovereigns will likely know his job and any strong support could prove significant. Noon Blu Dodville and The Two Degrees are others to note in the market.

(4) (15/8 +17%)Sure Touch |
15/8(+17%) | (4) Sure Touch 15/8, Outpaced, ran to form when fourth beaten 11l in a handicap chase here latest; blinkers first time; trainer in form; best at around 2 1/2m on sound surface; well treated on best form, running into form, good chance. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

(1) (7/2 +13%)Ga Law |
7/2(+13%) | (1) Ga Law 7/2, Made too much use of, didn't stay down the field in Silver Cup Handicap Chase at Ascot most recent; returning from long layoff; best at 2 1/2m, suited by sound surface; not up to top level, should be competitive in this company. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (25/1 -39%)Mars Harper |
25/1(-39%) | (3) Mars Harper 25/1, Outpaced, continued in poor form comfortably held in a handicap chase at Bangor-on-Dee last time; effective 2 1/2-3m; often gets going too late, frustrating type on long losing run but on dangerous mark. |

Sure Touch has won three times at this venue, although he disappointed when last of four over C&D last month. He's not totally discounted with blinkers added for the first time, but TOMMY'S OSCAR makes more appeal. Ann Hamilton's tough and consistent chaser should be sharper for his recent pipe-opener over 2m1f at Kelso and he looks on a workable mark back over this more suitable distance. Triple Trade could edge out Mars Harper and Ga Law for third.

(10) (50/1 50/1)The Two Mary's |
50/1(50/1) | (10) The Two Mary's 50/1, Outpaced, may have needed stiffer test when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Listowel last time; effective 2m, acts on sound surface; may want further over hurdles. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (4/5 +4%)Light Up The Dark |
4/5(+4%) | (5) Light Up The Dark 4/5, Ran to current level beaten 7l in a handicap at Naas last time; stays 17f on Flat; won both bumper starts, brings plenty of potential to hurdles for top yard. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

66/1(+0%) | (3) Elite Ocean 66/1, Yard won this last year; lacked pace, moderate effort down the field in a maiden hurdle at Listowel most recent; returning from long layoff; effective at 3m in points; sort to need longer trips over hurdles. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (100/1 +0%)Liath Mor |
100/1(+0%) | (9) Liath Mor 100/1, Never in it from off the pace well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Gowran Park only start; major improvement needed. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (150/1 -20%)Cool As A Cat |
150/1(-20%) | (1) Cool As A Cat 150/1, Improved although maybe flattered at big odds down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown most recent; returning from a break; type to do better when handicapping. |

Thomas Cooper trained Amen Kate to win this last year but she arrived with plenty of experience, and although Esteio is related to plenty of winners, she is making her debut here. Light Up The Dark won her first two bumpers before switching to the Flat where she has also won twice and she has to be of interest on her hurdling bow, but a chance is taken on HOLLY'S THUNDER. Third over further on her only start after weakening late on, that form looks solid with the winner highly regarded and the second placing on every start, and if she takes to hurdles the two miles here looks ideal.

Monbeg Genius ran some decent races last season, most notably when third in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham, and the recent rain in the forecast won't have done his chances any harm. 2024 Grand National fifth Kitty's Light is dangerously handicapped on the pick of his form, but a chance is taken with KNAPPERS HILL. His early form when returning from a long spell on the sidelines would give the hope he is capable of winning a prize of this nature.

33/1(+18%) | (9) Jetaway Mountain 33/1, Outpaced, needed run well when beaten in a maiden hurdle at Listowel latest; effective 2 1/4m; should do better when stepped up in trip. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (100/1 -25%)Orchard Cross |

SOUL ASYLUM wasn't beaten far in a strong bumper when sixth at Punchestown 178 days ago and may be able to make a winning start over hurdles. The Walk In The Park gelding had won at that same venue previously and, having been runner-up in a point-to-point, boasts jumping experience. Lirakali has an obvious chance, having been narrowly denied by stablemate The Captain's Word on his hurdling debut at Gowran at the start of the month. Farney Bridge, a solid third at Fairyhouse last time, could reach the frame again.

A small but competitive field with The Doyen Chief heading the weights as he drops in class after pulling up in a Listed handicap at Punchestown in May. He has had wind surgery since and is up to this level, but giving 22lb to PAPER MILL seems a big ask. The 10-year-old won a lesser contest at Southwell last time and is worth a chance in this better company. Livin On Luco is not out of it either but may have to settle for third.

INTHENICKOFTIME looks to have hit a purple patch and bids for a hat-trick of course wins with leading claims. Enda Bolger's charge followed last month's narrow victory with a more comfortable success, and an 8lb rise may not be enough to anchor the son of Gleneagles. Perth runner-up Castleheath is edging closer to getting his head back in front, while Shellrunforbriggs landed a double back in the spring including a Kilbeggan chase, and is another to note reverting to the smaller obstacles.

Hitman gained a first success in almost three years when proving too strong for Master Chewy (second), BOOMBAWN (fourth) and Imperial Saint (fifth) in this contest 12 months ago. Of that quartet, Dan Skelton's charge makes the most appeal, especially given the fact he is 10lb lower with first-time cheekpieces and, most importantly, arrives following a decent preparation in the Silver Trophy at Chepstow. Wendigo remains a chaser open to progression but that is likely to come over further, while Bluey is another with solid credentials.

CATHRYNS RUBY won here at a similar time last year and may be able to strike again on her seasonal debut. The Mahler mare was consistent last term and, having ran well to finish placed in a couple of competitive events at Fairyhouse in the winter, she looks capable of scoring again off this mark. River Vale was a winner over fences when last seen at Cork in April and his hurdles mark is now 7lb lower, so he commands respect. Jumbos Jet also visited the winners' enclosure on her last outing at Clonmel in May and is another to consider on her handicap debut.

Noble Recall could prove popular here after winning at Worcester despite his rider losing his irons, suggesting he was value for more than the official margin. Upped 8lb by the handicapper he will need more now, and a chance is taken on WALK IN THE VALLEY. The lack of a recent race took its toll when he finished fourth over C&D on his first run in 11 months, but he should strip fitter now and has more scope than most. Gambie Tiep might follow them home.

66/1(-32%) | (5) Tradonthebay 66/1, Mistakes, bit below form well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on heavy and good; wants this step back up in trip. |

OLE OLE landed the odds with the minimum of fuss in a maiden hurdle at Bellewstown back in April. Gavin Cromwell's charge was then set a stiff task in a tougher contest at Listowel on his return to the fray and looks worth another chance at this lower level. Minella Hollow will also appreciate this drop in class having finished a respectable third in Grade 3 company at Gowran. He makes more appeal than Direct Approach and Harpy Eagle of the remainder.

With Fergal O'Brien training three of the last four winners of this contest it may pay to keep an eye on KAMSINAS, who won this in 2024 off a 5lb lower mark. He invariably goes well fresh and looks likely to have been aimed here throughout the summer. Dan Skelton runs three with Glancing Jack debuting for the yard under Harry Skelton presumably the stable number one, though ex-Irish Hillberry Hill looks progressive and might be the bigger danger.

Emmet Mullins runs another smart Flat recruit for Amo Racing in SQUARE NECKER, who should prove hard to beat if transferring his ability to jumps. The Zarak gelding won three on the level, the most recent success coming at Ayr back in June on soft ground, and he boasts an official rating of 97. Huntin Boots shaped with promise when second on his debut in a Gowran bumper and wasn't disgraced at Punchestown when last seen. He looks the one likely to give the selection most to do. Paul Nolan runs five, including four newcomers, with Well Friend, a sister to Grade 2 hurdle winner Thedeviluno, one of the more intriguing debutants.

JUSTUS was most likely feeling the exertions of a long season when tailing off at Uttoxeter 143 days ago and a summer break may have revitalised him. A reproduction of his previous runner-up effort at Hexham would make the eight-year-old tough to beat and a sixth career victory may be on the cards. Although solid recent form is thin on the ground, Lightning Flash lurks on a dangerous mark, while Kourosh is a worth a second look on his belated return.

Runner-up on his last three starts over hurdles, BULGADEN CASTLE can make the breakthrough for trainer Philip Rothwell. Having placed in a point-to-point, the Soldier Of Fortune gelding should benefit from stepping up in trip here on his return to action. In a race where a couple of his main dangers have questions to answer, the five-year-old looks the most solid option. With an official rating of 117, Doctor Elvis sets the standard on what he has achieved over flights to date. However, having been pulled up when last seen at Wexford in July, Gordon Elliott's gelding has something to prove at this stage. Point-to-point winner Rebel Reba has claims if coming on from her recent hurdling debut.

In a field of largely unknown quantities the market may prove the best guide to their relative chances, though WISE MAIDEN did easily win a C&D bumper in May for Gina Andrews and she now runs under the Tom Ellis banner. She scored by just over nine lengths that day, despite looking green, and may prove good enough to give her 4lb penalty away to these rivals. Lady Jetfire is well regarded at the Jamie Snowden yard and she is one to watch, while Purple Fountain and Moral Compass appear best of the remainder.

A tricky looking contest and recent winner BAYMOUNT may prove the safest bet. She had a slow start to her career but progressed in bumpers and was an all the way winner back over hurdles at Tramore 17 days ago. Dunsy Rock won her maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse in February but has disappointed in two starts since, though returning from a break she may be capable of better. Louve D'irlande was thrown in at the deep end on her first start for Paul Nolan, finishing out the back in the Mares' Novice at Cheltenham, though she was a winner over hurdles in France and could play a bigger role in this company.

The market is likely to prove informative in a race chock-full of newcomers, with FRANCISCO ALVARES getting a tentative vote. A 75,000-pound purchase as a foal, Dan Skelton has already enjoyed plenty of success with his bumper horses this season and further glory may be imminent. Clos Du Mouche is related to several French winners and is feared most with Sean Bowen in the plate, while the Nigel & Willy Twiston-Davies-trained Beau De Maine cannot be dismissed given their current strike-rate.

16/1(+27%) | (1) Bluebell Breeze 16/1, Below form up in trip when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon most recent; effective 2m, acts on good to yielding; likely one for handicaps after this. |

Trainer Peter Fahey may be able to land this finale with newcomer VA LA VIE. An unraced daughter of Walk In The Park, the filly is out of a 131-rated hurdler, and although she is bred to appreciate further in time, this stiff track should play to her strengths. Fahey is able to ready one at the first time of asking, has trained some smart bumper mares over the years, and in a race where recent form is scarce his debutant gets the nod. Having finished third at this track last time, Mozart's Song sets the form standard despite weakening late on, and the Eamon Courtney-trained filly should be sharper now, while Moscovite is another newcomer that warrants close inspection.

(6) (100/1 +20%)Slaney Valley |
100/1(+20%) | (6) Slaney Valley 100/1, Pulled up in a Mares bumper here latest where green and stopped quickly; off a short-break; all to prove. |

PAYSLIP can get her head in front now after the Workforce mare was runner-up in a couple of point-to-points and also had to settle for second on her rules debut for Gavin Cromwell at Downpatrick in July. The winner then, Its Time For A Run, was second over hurdles at Fairyhouse earlier this month and the form looks solid. Certavi Et Vici ran well at a massive price on her debut at Listowel and with some improvement she is entitled to play a big role now, while the Emmet Mullins-trained newcomer, Morning Rose, is related to some decent sorts in France and is one to note if the market speaks in her favour.

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.
