Plenty of recent course form to consider and perhaps RAGMANS CORNER can successfully revert to hurdles following his third to Filey Bay in the valuable Connacht Hotel Handicap here on Monday. The Gerry Keane-trained gelding appears versatile in terms of ground conditions winning twice over hurdles last season and has progressed well since on the Flat taking a 21-runner handicap at Navan. Punchestown maiden hurdle winner Castleheath dead-heated over an extended mile here on Tuesday, while Battle Of Ridgeway is one for the shortlist on his second at the Punchestown Festival. There is little to choose between Son Of Hypnos, Half A Chance and Eyeeye on running behind Jerrari over C&D on Monday.

Several of these have run well at the meeting. RAGMANS CORNER came home strongly for third in Monday's amateur race and gets the vote

The in-form Kokinelli should be capable of another bold showing from a handy draw, while the hat-trick seeking Respiro Solitario has flourished since stepping up to 1m4f and can figure strongly, despite a 7lb rise for winning at Ffos Las. However, the still-unexposed MAFTING takes a significant step down in class after finishing mid-division in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot and will find this is a much more attainable prize at this stage.

Another advance from RESPIRO SOLITARIO (nap) may well provide the win. Ghaiyya is second choice.

DUKE SILVER won over 2m4f at Wexford last autumn and may have scope for improvement over this trip. The Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding finished strongly when beating all bar Duty Bound at Killarney last month. Chance Another One has been raised 20lb for a facile win at Ballinrobe and riding arrangements suggest he's preferred to Artic Gale, who was a creditable third over 2m6f here on Wednesday. Greatness Awaits is on a hat-trick and had Bitofajokelike and Coole Cherry behind when scoring at Killarney, while Nytol is also bidding for a hat-trick after scoring twice at Cork including over this trip.

In a highly competitive race, BILLY LEE SWAGGER is put forward as an each-way suggestion based on a Punchestown festival fourth

MOON TARGET justified strong market support to make a striking debut at Newmarket last month and the daughter of Cracksman looks an exciting prospect. With any amount of improvement to come, she looks tough to oppose. Space Bear was a two-length victor on her introduction at Wolverhampton and provided she is as effective on turf, she could have a say. Any market confidence behind newcomer What A Racket would be interesting.

Winning newcomers from the Prescott yard usually turn out to be smart and MOON TARGET looked good at Newmarket.

LTO Selection:

All of these have something to offer on paper and the betting is likely to be a very helpful guide. As a full-brother to a smart 7f winner, LOPEO, who cost 150,000 euros as a yearling, is suggested as the first one to note, while Laazm, Moment Of Light and Emerald Coast all represent in-form yards that are very capable of having one ready at the first time of asking.

Based on sales prices and other factors, the colts hold sway. LOPEO is first choice ahead of Moment Of Light and Laazm.

Blood Destiny is a smart sort over fences having beaten Spillane's Tower in a Grade 3 over 2m at Navan last year and took advantage of a good opportunity when long odds-on over 2m3f at Listowel last time. However, this step up in trip may stretch his stamina and preference is for ZANAHIYR. The classy Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was placed in the 2023 Champion Hurdle and only beaten a length when third to Pinkerton over C&D in the Plate last year. He kept on into seventh behind stablemate Western Fold in the latest renewal of the Plate on Wednesday. Yeats Star looks best of the remainder.

Best treated at these weights is Blood Destiny. However, he may be vulnerable in a duel with Wednesday's Plate seventh ZANAHIYR

ROCK MASTER has been thereabouts in this grade the last twice, most recently finishing third at Leicester, and this may be a solid opportunity for him to strike. C&D winner Primrose Maid reaches for first-time blinkers in the hope of bringing out improvement, so she is one to keep an eye on. Desert Beauty is the pick of the remainder based on her victory at Leicester two starts ago.

Not many of these are solid, but DESERT BEAUTY makes plenty of appeal as the only one with recent winning form to her name.

Go Victor kept on well to win over 6f at Thirsk and appeals off 4lb higher, while Sporting Light's recent second-placed finish at Catterick was encouraging enough for him to make the shortlist. The vote, however, goes to SOMEBODY, who filled the runner-up slot behind a promising filly in a deeper race at Chelmsford. Heavily backed on that occasion, Richard Spencer's youngster has since been gelded and can reward any faithful support.

The choice is GO VICTOR who is improving judging by his Thirsk success. This extra furlong may suit him even better on breeding.

ARCTIC FLY returned to form following a winter break when successful at Tipperary last month with Aeros Luck and Good As Hell both behind.

A pleasing run over hurdles last time gives THE DASHER CONWAY a chance off a mark 10lb lower than last year, when he finished second

Kilima secured his first career victory in a classified stakes over track and trip on his latest outing and is an interesting contender back in a handicap. However, SHABU SHABU was just touched off into second in this class at Salisbury last month and goes off the same rating. James Ferguson's charge may only need to reproduce that level of form in order to go one better. Argentum is another to keep an eye on.

Kilima should be fine in a handicap off this low a mark but preference is for SHABU SHABU whose Salisbury form looks stronger.

CELANDINE took on older sprinters in a Group 3 contest at York on her belated seasonal bow and finished a respectable third. Ed Walker's filly looks to have strong claims on today's terms, with a low draw also in her favour. Toyotomi is a Listed winner in France and is one to take seriously on only his second start for David O'Meara, while Ain't Nobody drops in class and could also get involved.

The 3yo fillies may well come to the fore, with CELANDINE top rated and Kassaya the type to progress further.

Carrying a 7lb penalty for winning the feature on Tuesday, it certainly won't be easy for DUNUM. However, his impressive course record is difficult to ignore and having claimed this race in 2023, he finished a gallant third when attempting to defend his crown 12 months ago. A place ahead of the selection in last year's renewal, Hurricane Ivor is of definite interest and will appreciate easy underfoot conditions. Just held in a Listed event here on Thursday, Princess Child is likely to have plenty of supporters, while Scurry winner Go Athletico, top-weight Bravais (first-time cheekpieces) and Tony Martin's Orandi are other leading hopes. The UK challenge looks strong, with Partisan Hero, Persuasion and Apiarist all making the journey.

Dunum and Orandi reoppose from Tuesday but preference is for Thursday's unlucky Listed second PRINCESS CHILD

ARUNDEL continued his progression with a good second at Newmarket last month and this looks a suitable opportunity for him to regain the winning thread. A 3lb rise for Ed Dunlop's charge looks workable and he's preferred to Silent Affair. The daughter of Saxon Warrior has dropped to an attractive mark and shouldn't be underestimated in first-time cheekpieces. Pay Attention may fare best of the remainder.

Arundel is solid but a chance is taken on handicap newcomer ALIVE AGAIN who could be a different proposition over this longer trip.

EMPIRESTATEOFMIND showed signs of a resurgence when placed at Hamilton last time and the son of Starspangledbanner has every chance at the weights in an open claimer. The veteran Revich also posted an improved effort when third at Ripon and he saves his best for this venue, having won four times here in the past. On The River took a handicap at Carlisle in June and could also land a blow.

The return to this venue is a plus for REVICH, whose useful form at Chester features four wins. Empirestateofmind is second pick.

Four of these faced off at Leopardstown last month, with Noel Meade's Joltin faring best in second. LUCIA MOLLY was just a short head behind in third and, now 2lb better off at the weights, she might be able to reverse the form. Coming from off the pace when well supported for that Foxrock heat, Bang Bang, who is also trained by Meade, was an eyecatching fifth. Sure to come on plenty for that initial effort, she can be expected to get even closer. Sutton Hoo is the most interesting of the newcomers, with the 65,000-euro purchase holding a Goffs Million entry. Representing top connections, Duke Of Cumberland and Slaudeen are others worthy of respect.

Four of these contested a similar Leopardstown event last month, of which BANG BANG could prove the value here

Having returned to form with a solid second at Ffos Las recently, Smooth Silesie should give another bold account. However, this represents a rise in class for the four-year-old and preference is for LAST OUTLAW. Michael Keady's gelding didn't enjoy the best of passages when coming home in fifth at Musselburgh last month and, granted better luck, a third career victory may beckon. Fletcher's Flight is also of interest.

The 5yo FLETCHER'S FLIGHT (nap) runs this track well and his last run suggests he's ready to exploit a reduced mark.

A taking winner of this contest last year off 3lb lower, YANIFER arrives in good form and he could be set to go one better than he did at York and Doncaster recently. Bobby Bennu bounced back to form with a strong runner-up effort at Haydock and is likely to figure, along with Palmar Bay, who has strong claims on his success at Chelmsford two starts back. Course winner Flaming Rib and Rogue Sensation cannot be ruled out either.

With solid claims back at Chester, YANIFER could well follow up last year's win in this contest. Bobby Bennu is second pick.

Trained in Shropshire by proud Galway native David Loughnane, THIS FARH has already won twice this year and was a close third at Chester on his most recent start. Although the ground is a bit of an unknown, his dam did win on heavy. Towards the bottom of the handicap, Tilani is of definite interest. An encouraging third when last seen at Leopardstown, he will be well fancied to go a few places better. Third, fourth and fifth behind It'sneverjustone on Monday, Highbury See See, Gangsta Man and Fiona Maccoul are others worthy of respect in this competitive heat.

Value may be had in PALLATINE HILLS, who showed improvement dropped in trip last time and for whom this further drop could suit

Although he finished fourth of five runners over 1m2f at Chepstow last month, MAKES ME WONDER was beaten just under a length. David Simcock's gelding wasn't seen to best effect held up in the rear off a sedate gallop and reverting to 1m may prove fruitful. Suzuka has failed to live up to expectations, but she is a potential improver stepping up in trip. The daughter of Bated Breath is feared most, ahead of the down-in-class Warrnambool.

The choice is SUZUKA who is bred to be much better than she has shown so far and should appreciate the step up in trip on breeding.

IT'S A LOVE THING travelled well on the front end for a long way over 1m4f at Pontefract before weakening into second late in the piece, and dropping back in trip may prove ideal. Risen Again has run with credit since scoring at Yarmouth in May and he must enter calculations. Glistening Nights represents last year's winning trainer, while Hamlet's Night makes his debut for a new yard.

An open-looking finale, with several runners attractively handicapped. HAMLET'S NIGHT is the suggestion, ahead of Light Speed.

One of two Willie Mullins-trained representatives in the line-up, AL ARRIVEE could prove hard to beat. The choice of Patrick Mullins, she is a half-sister to dual Cheltenham Gold Cup hero Al Boum Photo. While she met trouble in running when a beaten favourite on debut here last season, she has since opened her account in style at Sligo in June. Doctor Steinberg is the other Mullins contender and after an easy win at Ballinrobe in May, it won't come as a huge surprise if he makes a race of it with his stable companion. A well-backed winner at Killarney in August last year, it'll be interesting to see how Murat fares, while UK raider American Empire and the Emmet Mullins-trained Minella Emperor are others to keep on side.

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.
