BARONESS ORCZY was pulled up on her debut in March but showed much improved form just eight days ago and should continue to progress. Out of a three-time winner, the selection finished three-and-a-half lengths behind three-time Flat winner Mile End at Naas but should reverse that form, having finished her race quite well. She is also the lesser exposed of the pair, and is now 8lb better off. Pure Logic had useful bumper form last summer and will appreciate good ground but debuts over hurdles on her reappearance run. Final Decision was useful in 2023 but is long absent.

Though Baroness Orczy is 7lb better off with MILE END for a 3.5l beating at Naas last time, the latter could uphold that form

HOLY SEE was pulled up at Cheltenham last month and would ideally prefer an ease in the ground, but has nice ability and drops in grade. The selection finished fourth at Listed level in France in March 2024 and in his three initial hurdle runs, wasn't beaten far by some smart types. His Naas February race was notably strong as the winner scored at Grade 3 level afterwards, runner-up Murcia landed a Grade 1 win and the third also scored subsequently. The form of Arch Empire's Navan run is working out well although he might struggle to beat an on-song selection. Yoradreamer has been running well enough and can get involved in the placings.

Yoradreamer will be well fancied on the back of two solid efforts but ARCH EMPIRE could be a bit of value
Class & Speed Card

EXTRAPOLATION shaped nicely on his recent Flat reappearance and being a dual course-winner, will have had today's race as a target. A four-time winner, he achieved a higher chase rating of 127 last summer and with drying ground in his favour. Handicap debutante Glenashling is a half-brother to Champion Chase winner Special Tiara and showed big improvement when being promoted to winner at Down Royal last month. He wore a first-time hood then and travelled strongly, before eventually being promoted ahead of Walk On The Beach, who possessed a useful level of form. Course-and-distance winner Flidais scored over fences last month and has to be of interest.

ZAFFONIEN (nap) hasn't won in a while but there was plenty to like about his recent comeback run at Navan and he gets the vote
Class & Speed Card

RACHEL'S SECRET returned to form when winning at Clonmel last month. Placed behind capable types in bumpers in 2023, she has gradually progressed this year and scored easily at Clonmel. The six-year-old can better her current rating, while her same rider is able to claim 5lb today. Straight Home has been performing well and it is notable she reverts to a distance over which she is largely unexposed. Willie Mullins' mare is a point-to-point winner who likes good ground, so should get involved. Dual Flat winner Innatendue was well held in a recent maiden hurdle and is winless in 16 races in this sphere.

Although put up 7lb for winning a Clonmel maiden she was entitled to do, RACHEL'S SECRET is selected to follow up in a tricky handicap
Class & Speed Card

Both of IT'S TIME AGAIN's wins have come here so she is likely to be primed for today's seasonal reappearance run. An able type at this grade, she hasn't won since scoring consecutively in May 2022 but had returned to form last autumn and commands the utmost respect. Four-time scorer The Vegas Raider is also a previous course winner and while well held on his latest runs in 2024, he too returns following a winter's break and should also be competitive. Maidens Evans Secret and Klassman have shown form at this level and are suited by summer ground.

Dual course winner IT'S TIME AGAIN was in fine form when last seen and goes well fresh so can tack on another win at this venue.

PAUL COLLINS shaped as though he would appreciate today's distance on his handicap debut eight days ago. Although well beaten in two maidens this year, he nonetheless beat plenty of rivals and showed nice ability from today's same rating at Naas recently. Stealthy Tom is a capable banks' race performer and handicap chaser who is rated a massive 41lb lower in this sphere. That entitles him to huge respect but he was beaten in two handicap hurdles last year and will have bigger spring targets. Ahead Of The Posse reappears in a first-time tongue-tie and while rated 109 over fences, has won just once from 19 runs.

STEALTHY TOM is a much better chaser and has had limited opportunities over hurdles but remains of interest off this mark
Class & Speed Card

FACILE OCEAN debuts for new connections having shown nice ability on his debut in February. The selection is a half-brother to two winners and having been well supported at Naas, wasn't beaten far. The winner of that race was subsequently Listed-placed and that experience will help, as his principal rivals lack experience. Blazing Duke was a 36,000-euro purchase as a two-year-old and is well related, while Grey Gardens's grand-dam was a half-sister to Arc winner Peintre Celebre.

A tentative vote goes to Gavin Cromwell's newcomer BLAZING DUKE, second reserve Springhill Warrior a big threat if getting a run.

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.
