16:05 Bellewstown Claiming Hurdle 20f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (6.5/1 +59%) Must Meet Cecil	6.5 6.5/1(+59%)	(7) Must Meet Cecil 6.5/1, Fair hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Sligo in August. 15/2, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (20.6f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Needs to confirm his stamina for this sort of trip. Won a claiming race at Sligo on his penultimate start but this is a much stronger contest.
2	5 2nd (5) (2.5/1 +72%) Bal De Rio	2.5 2.5/1(+72%)	(5) Bal De Rio 2.5/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 10/1, creditable second of 11 in claimer at Roscommon (10.3f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Each-way possibilities returned to timber. Has prospered in claimers this year but may find a few too good at these weights.
3	9 3rd (9) (7.5/1 +53%) Starman	7.5 7.5/1(+53%)	(9) Starman 7.5/1, Fair hurdler who opened his account in a Wexford maiden (16.7f) in June. 25/1, fourteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft) 30 days ago. Up in trip. Soundly beaten in two handicap attempts, others are better suited by the race conditions.
4	1 4th (1) (8/1 -220%) Clondaw Hollow	8 8/1(-220%)	(1) Clondaw Hollow 8/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Evens, third of 4 in novice chase at Clonmel (20f, good) 82 days ago. Not discounted returned to hurdling/down in grade. Has done relatively little racing for a horse of his age, 2-6 over hurdles, bled on latest.
5th	3 5th (3) (4/1 -100%) Jungle Prose	4 4/1(-100%)	(3) Jungle Prose 4/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Pulled up in novice chase at Galway (22.5f, good to soft, 15/2) 27 days ago, tailed off when pulled up before sixth. Return to hurdling could well have positive effect and she's worth siding with. Four wins over hurdles last year, let down by jumping in a chase at Galway hard to oppose.
6th	6 6th (6) (4/1 +38%) Wajaaha	4 4/1(+38%)	(6) Wajaaha 4/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 17/2, 7¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Must Meet Cecil in minor event hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form. Ordinary handicap form this season, fourth in Sligo claiming race won by Must Meet Cecil.
7th	11 7th (11) (66/1 +0%) Essential Part	66 66/1(+0%)	(11) Essential Part 66/1, Seventh of 14 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Hard to fancy on these terms. Failed to deliver on early promise on the Flat for Ger Lyons; weak hurdles form; no appeal.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (12/1 -50%) Desert Friend	12 12/1(-50%)	(2) Desert Friend 12/1, Latest win in chase at Clonmel in June. 4/1, 16¾ lengths fifth of 7 to Must Meet Cecil in claiming hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Won over fences in June, disappointing in Sligo claiming hurdle won by Must Meet Cecil.
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (20/1 +50%) Knock On Steel	20 20/1(+50%)	(10) Knock On Steel 20/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2020. 33/1, fourth of 11 in handicap chase at Tramore (15.7f, soft) 10 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Significantly back up in trip. Winning hurdler/chaser, two years since he has shown worthwhile form, getting on in years.

LTO Selection:

The 134-rated JUNGLE PROSE sets a high standard for a claimer and should prove the one to beat. She comes here having pulled up over fences at Galway earlier in the month, when it was reported that she jumped poorly. It's no surprise to see her back over hurdles now and this looks like a winnable opportunity. At the weights the 119-rated Wajaaha would appear to be the danger. He was fourth in a similar event at Sligo just under three weeks ago. Clondaw Hollow has been running well over fences and is another that has to be on the shortlist in this company.

JUNGLE PROSE needs forgiving a lesser effort over fences at Galway on her latest outing 4 weeks ago yet she holds sound claims on these terms returning to timber and could well be the way to go. Wajaaha and Clondaw Hollow are a couple of others fancied to feature. Bal de Rio can also give a good account.

If suffering no ill-effects from a bad experience over fences last time JUNGLE PROSE should be hard to beat in this grade

Off 10 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Maiden in points. Never better than fifth in a total of 15 appearances, transformation needed.

LTO Selection:

AEROS LUCK was a touch unlucky when last seen at Kilbeggan last month and can gain compensation here. The My Dream Boat gelding looked to have the race in the bag going to the last then but was untidy at the final flight and was chased down on the run-in by Hardwired. He had also been runner-up at the same course the previous month and wouldn't be winning out of turn now. Weseekherthere was slightly disappointing when fourth on her most recent start at Sligo but the bumper winner has some solid form and looks an obvious danger. Ivy Hall was well enough held when third at Kilbeggan five days ago but could pick up prize-money again.

Bumper-winner WESEEKHERTHERE has been a shade disappointing over hurdles so far but is afforded another chance in a race lacking depth. Aero's Luck's stamina for this far isn't set in stone but he's a major threat if seeing it out, with Our Girl Sal another to consider.

A cleaner round of jumping by the mistake-prone AEROS LUCK may be enough to see him step up a place after two seconds at Kilbeggan

17:05 Bellewstown Handicap Hurdle 20f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (0.44/1 +40%) Final Orders	0.44 0.44/1(+40%)	(1) Final Orders 0.44/1, Six wins from 10 runs last season (including this corresponding event). 14/1, let down by his jumping when eighteenth of 22 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, good to soft) 4 weeks ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. 6 lb higher than last year but holds serious claims. Ran in the Galway Plate latest; has improved since winning this 12 months ago.
2	8 2nd (8) (18/1 -80%) Artemis Angel	18 18/1(-80%)	(8) Artemis Angel 18/1, 9/2, first run since leaving Peter Fahey when respectable fifth of 11 in maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) 17 days ago, racing freely. Makes handicap hurdle debut. 0-12 and has resisted handicaps until now; having second start for this yard.
3	12 3rd (12) (33/1 -50%) Dunleer Phoenix	33 33/1(-50%)	(12) Dunleer Phoenix 33/1, Again showed nothing when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Wexford (24f, soft, 14/1) 19 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Hasn't progressed from bumper debut and she's failed to complete in her two handicaps.
4	15 4th (15) (50/1 -100%) Raining Bird	50 50/1(-100%)	(15) Raining Bird 50/1, 14/1, brought down twelfth in handicap chase at Navan (24f, soft). Off 19 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. First run for yard after leaving Stephen Gerard Carey. No wins in 11 and was running over fences when last seen in early 2022.
5th	14 5th (14) (20/1 +60%) Cullenwaine	20 20/1(+60%)	(14) Cullenwaine 20/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle (18/1) at Sligo (25.4f, good to soft) 78 days ago. Should have more to offer. No better for the cheekpieces going on when down the field on handicap debut.
6th	13 6th (13) (66/1 +0%) Ben Thomson	66 66/1(+0%)	(13) Ben Thomson 66/1, 40/1, twelfth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (22.8f, good) 16 days ago. Tough to fancy. Minor form for this yard following a long absence.
7th	11 7th (11) (7.5/1 +63%) Serpolette	7.5 7.5/1(+63%)	(11) Serpolette 7.5/1, C&D winner. 17/2, shaped as if still in good form when fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (16f, heavy) 12 days ago, left with too much to do. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt. Three of her last four runs have been fairly positive but as a rule she's inconsistent.
8th	16 8th (16) (25/1 +50%) Trim To Milan	25 25/1(+50%)	(16) Trim To Milan 25/1, 33/1, unseated rider in hunter chase at Punchestown (21f, good to soft) on debut over fences 4 months ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. 33-1 when unseating in a hunter chase on final run in April; others preferred.
9th	7 9th (7) (7.5/1 -36%) Spanish John	7.5 7.5/1(-36%)	(7) Spanish John 7.5/1, Promising sort. 22/1, career best when winning 16-runner handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good) 16 days ago, forging clear. Up in trip. Should go close in his follow up bid. Won well on his handicap debut (8lb lower) and entitled to keep progressing.
9	9 \|F\| (9) (12/1 +40%) Miss Arccol	12 12/1(+40%)	(9) Miss Arccol 12/1, 12/1, went backwards from her comeback run when eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good) 16 days ago. Back up in trip. Rusty in two runs since returning from an absence; could yet get back on track.
10th	2 10th (2) (22/1 +33%) Forgetthesurprise	22 22/1(+33%)	(2) Forgetthesurprise 22/1, Followed a below-par effort with an even worse one when pulled up in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Punchestown (24f, good).

Cheekpieces back on and must bounce back. Running well prior to last time but stamina is not copperbottomed over this far.
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (50/1 -25%) Dont Doubt Me	50 50/1(-25%)	(10) Dont Doubt Me 50/1, 25/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, broke blood vessel when pulled up in handicap hurdle at this course (20f, good) 53 days ago. Suffered a loss of form since winning over this far at Gowran last September.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (80/1 -100%) Laishann	80 80/1(-100%)	(5) Laishann 80/1, Could hardly have gone with less promise when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Wexford (20.4f, soft, 40/1) 19 days ago. His fifth in a maiden hurdle last year was promising but well below that level since.

LTO Selection:

FINAL ORDERS looks very well treated back over hurdles here compared to his chase mark, which is 47lb higher. The Camelot gelding made little impression when last seen in the Galway Plate after a bad mistake early on but his is a much easier task. He has been a big improver over fences, with five wins, since last seen over hurdles taking this same race 12 months ago. Spanish John won nicely at Ballinrobe 16 days ago and there looks scope for more improvement from the Vendangeur gelding. Pat Fahy's charge left his previous form well behind when rounding the field to win going away on his handicap debut. Artemis Angel may also be capable of a bit better at this distance. She looked a touch one-paced when they quickened from the last at Downpatrick last time.

The last time FINAL ORDERS was seen over hurdles was when taking this corresponding event last year (won 6 times over fences since) and Gavin Cromwell's 7-y-o is strongly fancied to repeat that feat from a 6 lb higher mark. The main danger may emerge from Spanish John, who left previous efforts a long way behind after 6 months off when scoring at Ballinrobe recently, while Serpolette and Cullenwaine can do battle for third.

Gavin Cromwell's FINAL ORDERS looks a better horse now than when winning this 12 months ago off 6lb lower.

Makes handicap hurdle debut for a stiff-looking mark on the face of it but he's open to progress. Recent maiden winner; lacks experience for this and might be on a tough mark.
5th	12 5th (12) (14/1 -17%) Presenting Lad	14 14/1(-17%)	(12) Presenting Lad 14/1, Career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good, 9/2) 16 days ago, driven out. Up in trip, which isn't certain to suit. Defied a career-high mark at Ballinrobe in typically tenacious fashion; up another 7lb.
6th	15 6th (15) (6.5/1 -30%) Bukhill	6.5 6.5/1(-30%)	(15) Bukhill 6.5/1, Winner over hurdles at Sligo in July. Below form seventh of 19 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.6f, soft, 12/1) 30 days ago.

7th	14 7th (14) (7.5/1 -25%) Navigator Jack	7.5 7.5/1(-25%)	(14) Navigator Jack 7.5/1, 10/3, career best when winning 12-runner handicap hurdle at Wexford (20.4f, soft) 19 days ago, cruising clear. Has to be taken very seriously. Won eased down at Wexford and a 7lb rise could have been worse.
8th	9 8th (9) (25/1 -79%) Art Of Silence	25 25/1(-79%)	(9) Art Of Silence 25/1, Respectable eighth of 21 in handicap (5/1) at the Curragh (14f, good) 17 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles.

13	13 \|PU\| (13) (5.5/1 +45%) Stilyker	5.5 5.5/1(+45%)	(13) Stilyker 5.5/1, Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.7f, soft, 11/1) 24 days ago. Up in trip and not yet exposed for leading yard. Only wilted late on at Galway; Paul Townend returns on this strong traveller.

First run since leaving Gordon Elliott when seventeenth of 20 in handicap hurdle (100/1) at Galway (16f, good) 26 days ago. Back up in trip. Becoming hard to predict but capable of a decent show if on a going day.

LTO Selection:

BUKHILL is still relatively unexposed and may be able to make the most of a feather weight here, with Rachael Blackmore an eye-catching booking. The Hillstar gelding showed his well-being when running a cracker in a charity race at the Curragh on Saturday. He had previously failed to make much impression on his handicap debut over hurdles at Galway when getting a bit far back after a couple of mistakes. The five-year-old had won nicely on his previous hurdle start at Sligo and looks attractively treated off a mark of 105. Stilyker is an obvious danger for Willie Mullins. The Dylan Thomas gelding ran well for a long way when making the running at Galway last time. Stepping up in trip could suit now. The consistent Presenting Lad, a winner at Ballinrobe last time, looks another leading contender while impressive Roscommon winner Lake Winnipesaukee is an interesting one on his handicap debut. It remains to be seen how well treated he is off a mark of 123.

STILYKER hasn't had much racing for Willie Mullins but there's a strong feeling that there's a bigger performance in him for this yard. He's awarded the tentative vote in an open contest, with Uhtred and Navigator Jack a couple of potential threats.

There's more to come as a jumper from BUKHILL, who ran surprisingly well in Pat Smullen's charity Flat race last weekend.

6th	3 6th (3) (25/1 -56%) Flidais	25 25/1(-56%)	(3) Flidais 25/1, Fair hurdler. Winner in hurdle at Kilbeggan in June. Below form seventh of 14 in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Bolted up in a Kilbeggan maiden in June, well held in three stars since, plenty to do here.
7th	1 7th (1) (12/1 +0%) Delante	12 12/1(+0%)	(1) Delante 12/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (20.4f, good to soft, 17/2) 20 days ago. Won in France at three, good run three starts ago, not suited by the race conditions.
8th	6 8th (6) (4.5/1 -35%) Moon Rise Beauty	4.5 4.5/1(-35%)	(6) Moon Rise Beauty 4.5/1, Fair hurdler. Didn't need to be at best when winning 17-runner novice hurdle at Cork (17f, good to soft, 1/8) 23 days ago. Maiden win was a formality at odds on 1-8, plenty of substance to her overall form.
9th	2 9th (2) (80/1 -100%) Reverse Polarity	80 80/1(-100%)	(2) Reverse Polarity 80/1, Modest chaser. Fifth of 7 in novice chase (50/1) at Roscommon (16.4f, soft) 22 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Only success came in a maiden hurdle at Tramore two years ago, no appeal on current form.
4	4 \|U\| (4) (14/1 -56%) Je T'ai Porte	14 14/1(-56%)	(4) Je T'ai Porte 14/1, Fair hurdler. Winner in hurdle at Clonmel in May. 18/1, respectable seventh of 16 in handicap at Naas (10.5f, soft) 23 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Bit below form on last hurdle outing. Won a maiden hurdle at Clonmel, overall form raises doubts but she has quite a high rating.

LTO Selection:

MOON RISE BEAUTY got a confidence boosting win under her belt at Cork last time and can bag a follow up win. The Spanish Moon filly had run well previously when chasing home Great Bear at the same venue and didn't have much to beat on her return earlier this month. She looks capable of running to a mark of around 120 which should be enough to win this. Popova holds that same rating and makes her first outing since finishing mid-division at Punchestown. She's a danger at her best. Je T'ai Porte, rated 117, looks another big player. She has run a couple of times on the level this summer and is a decent dual-purpose sort.

POPOVA had some quite useful form in her novice season and may be able to strike on her reappearance. Rockview Consort won nicely on her recent Tramore hurdle debut winner and is second choice ahead of fellow last-time-out scorer Moon Rise Beauty.

Willie Mullins has massive strength in this division. MOON RISE BEAUTY (nap) can take the measure of Popova, top-rated on 120.

2	14 2nd (14) (4.5/1 +18%) Be My Hero	4.5 4.5/1(+18%)	(14) Be My Hero 4.5/1, Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs. 12/1, creditable fifth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Respected for top trainer/jockey pairing. 0-15 as a hurdler but kept on to be only 7l away over 2m2f at Sligo.

4	3 4th (3) (4.5/1 +0%) Mater Matuta	4.5 4.5/1(+0%)	(3) Mater Matuta 4.5/1, Won this race 12 months ago. Possibly unsuited by very testing ground when below-form fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Tramore (16f, heavy) 12 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Shortlist material. Running well before finding the ground too soft at Tramore; respected.
5th	7 5th (7) (4.5/1 +50%) Neev's Dream	4.5 4.5/1(+50%)	(7) Neev's Dream 4.5/1, 11/2, bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Creditable fourth on reappearance prior to that. Merits consideration. Good fourth behind one well handicapped at Ballinrobe; bit too keen last time.
6th	12 6th (12) (20/1 -67%) Aegirine	20 20/1(-67%)	(12) Aegirine 20/1, 18/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Cork (18.7f, good to soft) 23 days ago, not fluent 4 out. Mildly encouraging signs in maidens only to run no race on her handicap debut at Cork.
7th	2 7th (2) (16/1 -60%) Got Grey	16 16/1(-60%)	(2) Got Grey 16/1, Thirteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Signs encouraging before last time; cheekpieces could perk him up.
8th	9 8th (9) (5.5/1 -22%) Steps In The Sand	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(9) Steps In The Sand 5.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Modest winner at 12f on flat. 16/1, creditable fourth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Cork (18.7f, good to soft) 23 days ago. AW winner who is up to winning over hurdles having been competitive in both her handicaps.
9th	4 9th (4) (10/1 -11%) Mr Globalist	10 10/1(-11%)	(4) Mr Globalist 10/1, 9/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, bit below form fourth of 15 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16f, good) 13 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Beaten in three handicaps already and not progressing.
10th	1 10th (1) (20/1 -25%) Alhaajeb	20 20/1(-25%)	(1) Alhaajeb 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fair winner at 11f on flat. Eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Sligo (16.9f, good) 52 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time over jumps. Four-time Flat winner; early signs over hurdles not overly encouraging.
11th	11 11th (11) (40/1 -150%) Rene Artois	40 40/1(-150%)	(11) Rene Artois 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Twelfth of 15 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16f, good, 80/1) 13 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Potential improver. Difficult to summon up much enthusiasm on his maiden form over hurdles.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (25/1 +11%) Chequer Square	25 25/1(+11%)	(8) Chequer Square 25/1, 18/1, twelfth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good) 16 days ago. Remains a maiden under both codes and hasn't been threatening the breakthrough.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (33/1 +0%) Is That So	33 33/1(+0%)	(5) Is That So 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Ninth of 12 in handicap hurdle (66/1) at Tramore (16f, heavy) 12 days ago. Fifth of 17 on good/yielding at Cork before faring less well on soft (h'cap debut).

LTO Selection:

MATER MATUTA won this race 12 months ago and the locally trained mare is sure to be primed for a repeat bid. The selection, also successful both on the Flat and over fences, has been placed on a number of occasions in a varied campaign since and ran with credit here on her penultimate start over 1m4f. Steps In The Sand was claimed by current connections after winning over 1m4f at Dundalk last December and has been switched to hurdles this year making the frame on both handicap outings. She remains on a competitive mark while others to consider include Mr Globalist, Be My Hero and Applejack Poet. The latter had the keen running Neev's Dream behind when fourth in a similar event at Kilbeggan last time.

MATER MATUTA had very testing ground as a possible excuse for her below-par fifth at Tramore 12 days ago and might be able to notch a second successive win in this contest under Jordan Gainford. Neev's Dream is second choice ahead of Gordon Elliott's Be My Hero. Karloss is one who would also enter the reckoning if the market speaks in his favour on this first outing for Charles Byrnes.

In the hope that he's ridden a little closer to the action than last time BE MY HERO earns a tentative vote.

19:10 Bellewstown Handicap Hurdle 17f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (1.75/1 +36%) Gwan Tadhg	1.75 1.75/1(+36%)	(2) Gwan Tadhg 1.75/1, Reappeared to win at Downpatrick (17f) in August. 11/4, creditable second of 12 in handicap there (17.8f, good) on Monday. Claims if coping with the quick turnaround. Goodish ground is the key to him and excellent efforts at Downpatrick the last twice.
2	12 2nd (12) (50/1 -79%) Chemdawg	50 50/1(-79%)	(12) Chemdawg 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft, 28/1) 20 days ago. Made no impact whatsoever on her switch to handicaps at Sligo.
3	10 3rd (10) (80/1 -21%) Robin Elite	80 80/1(-21%)	(10) Robin Elite 80/1, Thirteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle (80/1) at Ballinrobe (22.8f, good) 16 days ago. Down in trip. Never a threat in his maidens and the same again on handicap debut at Ballinrobe when 80-1.
4	3 4th (3) (5/1 -25%) Up And Out	5 5/1(-25%)	(3) Up And Out 5/1, Good second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.4f, good to soft, 16/1) 7 days ago. Stable in good form. High on the shortlist. Not her first promising effort when beaten narrowly by gambled-on winner at Sligo.
5th	8 5th (8) (7/1 -8%) Attitash	7 7/1(-8%)	(8) Attitash 7/1, Third of 9 in handicap chase (9/1) at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) 2 days ago. Latest run at Downpatrick wasn't too bad; engaged there on Monday (5.25).
6th	4 6th (4) (5/1 +38%) Tea It Is	5 5/1(+38%)	(4) Tea It Is 5/1, Creditable third (Gwan Tadgh second) of 12 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) on Monday. Should be in the shake-up if he can cope with 2 outings in quick succession. Outpaced when third over 2m2f at Downpatrick on Monday; seems to need further.
7th	13 7th (13) (9/1 +44%) Shining Aitch	9 9/1(+44%)	(13) Shining Aitch 9/1, Thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Naas (10.5f, good to soft, 10/1) 3 days ago, slowly away. Switches from Flat to hurdles. 7/15 on last hurdle outing. Well beaten in a Flat handicap at Naas on Sunday but ran well on the AW prior to that.
8th	15 8th (15) (33/1 +0%) Howsthewoman	33 33/1(+0%)	(15) Howsthewoman 33/1, Remains a maiden after 22 NH runs. Visored for 1st time, fell in minor event hurdle (50/1) at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Her sole placed effort (handicap) was two years ago now.
9th	7 9th (7) (14/1 -100%) Red Striker	14 14/1(-100%)	(7) Red Striker 14/1, 25/1 and blinkered for 1st time, third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Good shout. Returned to form off reduced mark and in first-time blinkers when close up at Kilbeggan.
10th	5 10th (5) (22/1 +33%) Fireworks	22 22/1(+33%)	(5) Fireworks 22/1, 25/1, respectable tenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (18f, soft) 40 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Has been struggling in all sorts of races and more new headgear tried now.
11th	14 11th (14) (40/1 -150%) Cracklinrose	40 40/1(-150%)	(14) Cracklinrose 40/1, Twelfth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft, 6/1) 18 days ago. Below par of late but had placed form over hurdles and fences last year.
12th	6 12th (6) (8.5/1 +6%) Happaugue	8.5 8.5/1(+6%)	(6) Happaugue 8.5/1, Ninth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 10/1) 49 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Booking of Harvey a plus. Running well when brought down on last hurdle outing. Third in this 12 months ago off a similar mark; good AW run three starts back.
13th	11 13th (11) (100/1 -300%) Treyarnon Bay	100 100/1(-300%)	(11) Treyarnon Bay 100/1, Unreliable sort. Fair winner at 16f in bumpers. First run since leaving Nicky Henderson when 33/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (21.6f, good) 36 days ago. Down in trip. Lost her way for Nicky Henderson and was 33-1 when pulling up at Ballinrobe last month.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (25/1 -56%) Ambitious Approach	25 25/1(-56%)	(1) Ambitious Approach 25/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Thrice-raced maiden over hurdles. 150/1, tenth of 22 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (20f, good to soft). Off 6 months. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Open to progress. One maiden effort over hurdles was half encouraging and could pay his way in handicaps.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (40/1 +0%) Yewood	40 40/1(+0%)	(9) Yewood 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Ballinrobe (17f, good) 36 days ago. Tailed off in his two handicaps and clearly needs to pull his socks up.

LTO Selection:

UP AND OUT hails from a yard in good form and has shown her best form on good ground. She made a pleasing return after a winter break when beating all bar the odds-on Charlie Luciano in a Kilbeggan maiden and again filled the runner-up spot in a Sligo handicap last week behind hot favourite Redwood Queen. Red Striker won over hurdles and fences around this time last year and returned to form at Kilbeggan last time when only headed in the closing stages. Gwan Tadhg appreciated good ground when successful at Downpatrick earlier this month and had Tea It Is over six lengths back in third when runner-up to the gambled-on Anyway at the northern venue on Monday.

RED STRIKER reacted well to blinkers when third at Kilbeggan last time and might be the answer to this tricky handicap if the headgear works again. Up And Out is an obvious danger for the Elliott team on the back of his Sligo second. Ambitious Approach should be more than capable from this opening hurdle mark judged on his Flat ability and is another to consider.

Gwan Tadhg would be a player if turned out after Monday's good run but preference is for last year's third HAPPAUGUE.

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (5.5/1 +21%) Gone For Tea	5.5 5.5/1(+21%)	(4) Gone For Tea 5.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 4/1, third of 8 in bumper at Tramore (16f, heavy) 12 days ago. Stable in good form and she's one for the shortlist. Placed on all three starts including a 14l second over C&D, should be in the mix again.
2	5 2nd (5) (2.5/1 +29%) Intertwine	2.5 2.5/1(+29%)	(5) Intertwine 2.5/1, Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 14 in bumper (25/1) at Punchestown (16.3f, good) on NH debut. Off 10 months but could take a hand if fully tuned-up. Form of debut fourth at Punchestown last year looks strong, big chance if fit and ready.
3	7 3rd (7) (80/1 +20%) Salt Bridge	80 80/1(+20%)	(7) Salt Bridge 80/1, €3,000 3-y-o, Soldier of Fortune mare. Half-sister to bumper winner Knowwhentoholdem. Poor record in points. Half-sister to a bumper winner, showed nothing in six point-to-point outings last season.
4	6 4th (6) (22/1 +78%) Joe Hannigan	22 22/1(+78%)	(6) Joe Hannigan 22/1, Snow Sky mare. Dam unplaced in points. Wears hood. Pulled up sole start between the flags. Pulled-up in a point-to-point, no significant encouragement from her pedigree, hooded.
5th	8 5th (8) (2.25/1 -50%) Threesheetstodwind	2.25 2.25/1(-50%)	(8) Threesheetstodwind 2.25/1, Shantou filly. Sister to numerous winners, including bumper winner/smart hurdler Drop The Anchor, stays 2½m, and useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser Mr Shantu. Given the yard she represents, confidence behind her in the betting would be an ominous sign for her rivals here. Shantou filly is a sister to five winners, maximum respect for trainer/rider combination.
6th	10 6th (10) (8.5/1 -13%) Yourenotthebossame	8.5 8.5/1(-13%)	(10) Yourenotthebossame 8.5/1, Diamond Boy filly. Half-sister to fair hurdlers Playtogetaway and Sadies Trix. Stable in good form. Newcomer from a top stable, half-sister to a couple of hurdle winners and a point winner.
2	2 \|U\| (2) (2.75/1 +45%) Royal Moon	2.75 2.75/1(+45%)	(2) Royal Moon 2.75/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Creditable third of 17 in bumper at Cork (18.7f, good to soft, 15/2) 23 days ago. Major player. Consistent sort, has made the frame on all seven starts, good effort at Cork on latest.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (66/1 -164%) Sweet Liberty	66 66/1(-164%)	(3) Sweet Liberty 66/1, Once-raced maiden. 14/1, seventh of 8 in bumper at this course (16.8f, good) on NH debut 53 days ago. Finished with only one behind him over C&D on debut, top rider aboard but up against it.

LTO Selection:

Willie Mullins continues to dominate in bumpers with another newcomer winning at Ballinrobe on Monday and THREESHEETSTODWIND may provide the champion trainer with yet another winner. The Shantou filly is a full sister to five winners including the useful Drop The Anchor who won the valuable November Handicap at Naas last year. Royal Moon has put together a series of consistent efforts in bumpers and will surely gain a deserved win at some stage, while Gone For Tea has similar claims having been placed on all three starts this summer. Gordon Elliott introduces Yourenotthebossame, a half-sister to two hurdle winners, although she wasn't too strong in the market before taken out due to ground conditions at Sligo last week.

The natural starting point is THREESHEETSTODWIND given her pedigree and the yard she represents, and if the market speaks in her favour the case for supporting this filly will be all the more compelling. Royal Moon gets the nod for forecast purposes ahead of Gone For Tea and Intertwine.

Newcomer Threesheetstodwind is the obvious one here, but INTERTWINE ran well in a strong bumper last year and gets a hopeful vote

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.
