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

18:37 Ballinrobe Handicap Hurdle 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

NOTKEEPINYAGOING opened her hurdling account in fine style at Leopardstown early last month and having gone up just a couple of pounds since, she looks capable of striking on her handicap debut in against her own sex. This looks like a nice opportunity against rivals who don't come here in the same kind of form. The Gordon Elliott-trained Ginnets Girl won over 3m1f at Kilbeggan last summer, but this ground would be a concern on her return. Natural Look was pulled up on her most recent outing at Leopardstown, but previous form would make her a big player in this company.

Last month's Leopardstown maiden winner NOTKEEPINYAGOING should have more to offer and rather stands out in a race where most of her rivals have something to prove at present. Rebel Early might be the one to give her most to do if bouncing back to the form she showed when second at Cork in January.

NOTKEEPINYAGOING may not have beaten much in her maiden but could take some catching around here on handicap debut

19:07 Ballinrobe Handicap Hurdle 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BEAU'S CANDLE ran well on his return to the 'track' at Punchestown in February and can go one better now. He was no match for easy winner Balum then, but it was a solid run from the dual point-to-point winner and that form has worked out well since. Stepping up in trip should be a help as well. Lough Nigara has been placed on his last couple of runs and looks an obvious threat. He remains on the same mark as when third at Thurles last month. Captain Jimmy was well beaten last time, but is slipping down the handicap and has form on this type of ground so could get a bit closer.

A tricky handicap with DESPERADO GENIE chanced. She looks capable of better now handicapping up in trip and gets the vote over Beau's Candle and the returning It's Time Again.

Following good efforts in his first two handicaps LOUGH NIGARA could now be ready to strike, although he'll have to be ridden handier

19:37 Ballinrobe Handicap Hurdle 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

KING OF CONG obviously received a fair hike for a cosy success at Limerick eight days ago but he may be able to strike again, despite that 16lb rise. The Gamut gelding was a very easy winner when landing a gamble on his handicap debut and going up in trip could bring further improvement from the point-to-point graduate. Oneforgonzo was another wide-margin winner last time out and also has to be respected, despite a 12lb rise for his Naas victory. Willie Mullins has set Onlyamatteroftime some stiff tasks since he joined the yard and he was well beaten in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury in February. He could make more of an impression in this grade.

KING OF CONG could be way better than his current mark and can make it 2-2 in handicaps under Darragh Allen. Oneforgonzo has a similar profile and seems sure to go well again raised 12 lb for his Naas success. Onlyamatteroftime is proving frustrating but drops markedly in class here for Willie Mullins.

ONLYAMATTEROFTIME gets the vote. He could be a different proposition now stepping up to this trip from a reduced mark

20:07 Ballinrobe NH Flat Race 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BUTCH CASSIDY is a fascinating newcomer here pedigree-wise and may be able to make a winning start. The Walk In The Park gelding is a half-brother to ill-fated Champion Bumper winner Fayonagh and cost 140,000 euros as a store last June. Real Empire has been placed on both starts to date and looks the pick of those with racecourse experience. Another Walk In The Park gelding who is worth noting in the market is the Sam Curling-trained Swingin Safari. He was a 30,000-euro store and carries the colours of Timmy Hyde.

BUTCH CASSIDY ticks all the boxes on paper and is chanced to make a successful start from Real Empire. Mack The Chemist is interesting now tackling a bumper after a promising start over hurdles at Cork.

This can go to MACK THE CHEMIST who was a beaten favourite on debut but showed ability and may appreciate the switch to a bumper

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.
