LTO Selection:

BANNTOWN GIRL was outclassed in the Mares Novice Hurdle at Cheltenham last time but is up to landing a race of this standard. The Stowaway mare had run really well in a competitive mares handicap at the Dublin Racing festival previously, when a touch unlucky in third behind Ballybawn Belter, and looks well worth her official mark of 117. That sets a good standard in this. Broomfield Bijou looks an obvious danger coming here off the back of a good run to finish second at Navan last time. The Walk In The Park looked unlucky then as she had been badly hampered at the third last before running on well late on to get within half a length of We Got This. She had been running behind some smart mares previously and is a big player now in this company. Emotional Damage may improve from her initial effort at Naas and could get closer now.

BROOMFIELD BIJOU showed improved form and looked a shade unlucky not to win when runner-up at Navan last month having been badly hampered 3 out, so she's well worth the chance to gain compensation. Banntown Girl is the obvious threat returning to calmer waters.

This looks like a suitable opportunity for BANNTOWN GIRL who is worthy of her rating based on handicap performances at Leopardstown.

12th	5 12th (5) (50/1 +0%) Cool Cookie Claude	50 50/1(+0%)	(5) Cool Cookie Claude 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden who ran poorly after 14 months off at Limerick (21f, heavy) 15 days ago.

LTO Selection:

FREE FLOWING looks the safest bet here off a nice weight. Richie Geoghehan takes 7lb off his back and he also gets half a stone off the previous winners in the field. The Sans Frontieres gelding has been placed on his two runs this season and despite making no impression on easy winner Demandrivingdouvan at Wexford last time it was still a solid effort to finish third. Sir Jimmy Mac looked talented when winning by a side margin on his debut at Downpatrick in March 2022. He weakened tamely in better company at Punchestown subsequently and it will be interesting to see how he gets on now over timber, on his first start for Mark Fahey. He is a free running sort and this ground is a concern. Singing The Blues showed a decent level on the Flat in England and is one to note on his jumping debut.

FREE FLOWING has shown plenty on both his starts over hurdles and this looks a good opportunity for him to get off the mark. Ossifer Hops and Dinoland could be the pair to give him most to think about.

Plenty of question-marks here, but FREE FLOWING is put forward on the strength of a Thurles second on his penultimate start

17:20 Ballinrobe Maiden Hurdle 17f PREDICTION SIMULATION

17:50 Ballinrobe Handicap Hurdle 17f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	8 1st (8) (4/1 +75%) Bal De Rio	4 4/1(+75%)	(8) Bal De Rio 4/1, Latest win in hurdle at Clonmel in March. Creditable seventh of 20 in handicap hurdle (14/1) at Cork (16f, soft) 4 days ago.
2	9 2nd (9) (2.5/1 +58%) Wee Charlie	2.5 2.5/1(+58%)	(9) Wee Charlie 2.5/1, Career best when winning 19-runner handicap hurdle at Naas (15.4f, soft, 4/1) 33 days ago, always holding on. Open to progress.
3	4 3rd (4) (22/1 +12%) Razzle Dazzle Love	22 22/1(+12%)	(4) Razzle Dazzle Love 22/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. 9/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Navan (17f, heavy) 25 days ago, pulled up before 2 out. Switches from chase to hurdles. Something to find on form.
4	6 4th (6) (4.5/1 -29%) Your Honor	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(6) Your Honor 4.5/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Career best when winning 8-runner juvenile hurdle at Limerick (16.2f, heavy, 15/8) 33 days ago, soon clear. Makes handicap hurdle debut.
5th	7 5th (7) (50/1 +24%) Darkened	50 50/1(+24%)	(7) Darkened 50/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this season. Well-beaten twelfth of 14 to Carbon King in handicap hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy, 125/1) 25 days ago. Looks competitive on form.
6th	2 6th (2) (3/1 -9%) Carbon King	3 3/1(-9%)	(2) Carbon King 3/1, Progressive in handicap hurdles, making it 3 wins in last 4 starts when seeing off 14 rivals at Navan (16f, heavy, 2/1) 25 days ago. Even a 13 lb rise may not prevent him going in again.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (14/1 -56%) Ebasari	14 14/1(-56%)	(3) Ebasari 14/1, Latest win in hurdle at Downpatrick in July. Tenth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, soft, 5/1) 160 days ago. Tongue strap back on.
1	1 \|R\| (1) (6.5/1 -95%) Cafe Con Leche	6.5 6.5/1(-95%)	(1) Cafe Con Leche 6.5/1, 10/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle at Limerick (16.2f, soft) 19 days ago. 13 lb rise demands more of him but he hasn't been with his in-form yard long.

LTO Selection:

Connections take 7lb off the back of CARBON KING now in a bid to offset his 13lb hike for a cosy victory at Navan last month. The Malinas gelding has won three of his last four starts and was value for a bit more than his winning margin last time. He goes from strength to strength and can strike again. Cafe Con Leche is another who won with a bit in hand last time and could be a danger. The Camacho gelding was produced with a late run to score by four lengths at Limerick and also went up 13lb for that cosy victory. Holmes St Georges has been running well over the water this winter and it will be interesting to see how he fares back on home soil.

CARBON KING has improved in leaps and bounds since switched to handicaps and might still be a sstep ahead of the assessor. Wee Charlie is another who is going the right way and is feared most ahead of last month's Limerick juvenile scorer Your Honor.

Both Cafe Con Leche and Carbon King have been raised 13lb, so EBASARI is an appealing alternative who goes best fresh.

2	7 2nd (7) (20/1 +29%) Ladiam	20 20/1(+29%)	(7) Ladiam 20/1, Winner in hurdle at Sligo in August. 8/1, eighth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (19.9f, good to soft). Off 6 months. Yard in good form. Hood back on. Difficult ask.

4	4 4th (4) (14/1 +13%) Robyndeglory	14 14/1(+13%)	(4) Robyndeglory 14/1, Latest win in hurdle at Fairyhouse in February. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Cork (24f, heavy) 22 days ago.
5th	6 5th (6) (6/1 +33%) Bonnie Kellie	6 6/1(+33%)	(6) Bonnie Kellie 6/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap chase (2/1) at Limerick (19.6f, soft) 19 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Stable having good spell.
6th	5 6th (5) (5.5/1 +45%) Sainte Dona	5.5 5.5/1(+45%)	(5) Sainte Dona 5.5/1, Winner in hurdle at Thurles in November. Shaped as if still in good form when sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Cork (24f, heavy) 22 days ago, doing too much too soon. Expected to be bang there.
7th	9 7th (9) (8/1 +60%) Stolen Moment	8 8/1(+60%)	(9) Stolen Moment 8/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this season. 20/1, won 11-runner handicap chase at Wexford (25.4f, heavy) on debut over fences 14 days ago, driven out. Switches from chase to hurdles. Something to find on form.
8th	1 8th (1) (8/1 -45%) Optional Mix	8 8/1(-45%)	(1) Optional Mix 8/1, Latest win in hurdle at Limerick in December. 9/4, respectable third of 10 in handicap chase at Gowran (20f, heavy) 55 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Switches from chase to hurdles.
9th	3 9th (3) (12/1 -243%) Soldaro	12 12/1(-243%)	(3) Soldaro 12/1, 7/1, improved again to win 10-runner handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, heavy) 12 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Parvos, pushed out. Open to further progress and much respected on hat-trick bid.

LTO Selection:

Barry Connell has his team in flying form and NINE GRACES can bag another win here. The Kapgarde mare opened her account in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last time and that form has been boosted since. The runner-up Law Ella won subsequently while the fifth horse Jumping Jet has also scored. An initial mark of 112 doesn't look harsh for Nine Graces. The wonderfully consistent Optional Mix reverts to hurdles and is sure to run her race again. She could be the danger. Soldaro comes here on a hat-trick and has to be respected. She got another 8lb for her win at Downpatrick 12 days ago and this looks a slightly stronger contest now.

NINE GRACES should be capable of better again on the back of her Punchestown maiden success and can follow up on handicap debut. Soldaro is another who has made a bright start to her hurdles career and can provide the chief threat ahead of Sainte Dona, who did too much too soon at Cork last time and is still in good form.

A competitive event and a chance is taken on PARVOS to get off the mark up in trip on ground she handles.

13	13 \|PU\| (13) (40/1 +20%) Eclipseofardkilly	40 40/1(+20%)	(13) Eclipseofardkilly 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 125/1, sixth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (18.9f, heavy) 57 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

LTO Selection:

MADE IN THE WOODS has been in fine form over fences and it's no surprise to see connections try him over timber again now off a lowly mark. The Virtual gelding was runner-up four times this season before gaining a deserved win at Limerick. He ran a solid race off his revised mark at Wexford last time and now has a mark of 96 over fences. He races off the basement mark of 80 back over hurdles. Milajess has run a couple of promising races in maiden hurdles recently and could be a player here now, just scraping into the lowest grade of handicap. Holiday In Kerry ran well on his penultimate run at Clonmel, when finishing third, and is a player in this company at his best.

An all-round improved model over fences since the turn of the year, MADE IN THE WOODS returns to hurdling from a very appealing mark judged on his exploits over larger obstacles and he could well be the way to go with his rider also taking off a handy 5 lb. Handicap-debutante Milajess and Meehall head up the dangers.

Consistent in handicap chases since his most recent run over hurdles last December, MADE IN THE WOODS can exploit this mark

LTO Selection:

ANKUD was beaten at a short price in Gowran last time but looks worth another chance here. The Nathaniel gelding had run really well on his debut when chasing home Cut The Rope in Naas but faded tamely enough later in January when a moderate third to D Art D Art. He's had a little break since and this looks to be a winnable opportunity now. I Wont Back Down was the subject of a substantial gamble at Thurles on his debut last month when finishing sixth to Factual Fact. It would be no surprise to him come forward from that run. Young Lucy has shown a bit in a few runs and could be place material in this company.

ANKUD has shown enough in two starts to think he's probably up to winning an average bumper, so he's preferred to Fenway park, who looks the pick of the newcomers. I Wont Back Down was strong in the betting when sixth at Thurles on debut and is expected to improve.

ANKUD has the best single piece of form by virtue of his debut second at Naas. If forgiven a lesser Gowran run he should win this

LTO Selection:

RAINBOW TRAIL cost 220,000 pounds after a promising run on his sole point-to-point outing at Corbeagh House in December and now runs in the colours of Gigginstown. The French-bred lost out by half a length to Mint Boy on his debut and that rival has run well to be placed in a couple of bumpers this season. Backtonormal was third on his 'track' debut to a smart sort in Blizzard Of Oz at Cork and he looks an obvious danger. Lucid Dreams is a late starter having only made his debut at the age of eight last month. He ran a solid race to finish second over hurdles at Fakenham and the form of that race looked fairly ordinary. He is entitled to improve though and could grab minor money here.

RAINBOW TRAIL has been picked up by top connections on the back of a good second between the flags and he's expected to go one better on Rules debut. Backtonormal is the best of those with experience in this sphere and Lucid Dreams merits consideration after a solid showing in a novice hurdle.

With improvement likely after his fine Cork third on bumper debut, BACKTONORMAL can get the job done today.

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.
