13:10 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 19f - 13 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	14 1st (14) (7/1 +83%) The Lord Maid	7 7/1(+83%)	(14) The Lord Maid 7/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 12 in bumper at Punchestown (16.2f, soft, 66/1) 31 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Makes hurdles debut. Third in a mares bumper at Punchestown last month; more needed on her hurdles debut.
2	8 2nd (8) (12/1 +33%) Lep Around	12 12/1(+33%)	(8) Lep Around 12/1, Promising individual. Hooded, second of 10 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 11/1) on NH debut 16 days ago. Likely to improve and she's one to consider. Limerick runner-up; much more needed here but she should improve for that debut effort.
3	2 3rd (2) (3/1 +40%) Gaillimh A Run	3 3/1(+40%)	(2) Gaillimh A Run 3/1, Fairly useful 2m bumper winner. Fifth of 17 in novice hurdle at Naas (16f, soft, 13/2) on hurdles bow 63 days ago. Should improve. Did not run badly on her hurdles debut at Naas in December after eight months off; player.
4	7 4th (7) (7/2 +53%) Kiltealy Park	3.5 7/2(+53%)	(7) Kiltealy Park 7/2, Promising type. Third of 11 in novice hurdle (12/1) at Punchestown (20.2f, soft) on NH debut 31 days ago. Not taken lightly with improvement anticipated. Probably more to come from her but the drop back in trip is not an obvious plus.
5th	3 5th (3) (80/1 -21%) Molly Hall	80 80/1(-21%)	(3) Molly Hall 80/1, Modest Flat winner. Thrice-raced maiden under Rules. 80/1, eighth of 11 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (20f, heavy) 17 days ago. Two runs over hurdles and has been let down by her jumping both times; others preferred.
6th	10 6th (10) (200/1 -60%) Mrs Millionaire	200 200/1(-60%)	(10) Mrs Millionaire 200/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in novice hurdle (250/1) at Naas (18.5f, soft) 18 days ago. Beaten out of sight in three maiden hurdles; safe to look elsewhere.
7th	11 7th (11) (150/1 -582%) Noriska De La Mare	150 150/1(-582%)	(11) Noriska De La Mare 150/1, 14/1, eighth of 10 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) on hurdles bow 16 days ago. Well beaten on her hurdles debut at Limerick last month and no obvious chance on that form.
8th	6 8th (6) (13/2 +19%) Joya Del Mar	6.5 13/2(+19%)	(6) Joya Del Mar 13/2, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. 9/4, bit below form third of 14 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (18.2f, soft) 33 days ago. Has good chance on form. Respected here but shapes like a proper staying type and might just fall short.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (2/1 +33%) Pallas Athene	2 2/1(+33%)	(12) Pallas Athene 2/1, Promising sort. 7/4, fourth of 11 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (20.2f, soft) 31 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Slight drop back in trip could well suit although more is needed in a better race.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (25/1 +11%) Ixigreczed	25 25/1(+11%)	(5) Ixigreczed 25/1, Twice-raced maiden under Rules. Third of 10 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 50/1) on hurdles bow 16 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Faded into third after several jumping errors at Limerick; this looks a tough ask.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (66/1 -136%) Chatterbox	66 66/1(-136%)	(4) Chatterbox 66/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Twice-raced maiden in this sphere. 17/2 and hooded for 1st time, fell in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) 16 days ago (looked held in fourth place at the time of his departure). Would have been placed but for a last flight fall at Limerick last month; more needed here.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (150/1 +40%) Mountrivers Lass	150 150/1(+40%)	(9) Mountrivers Lass 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, eleventh of 12 in bumper at Punchestown (16.2f, soft) 31 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Well beaten in two bumpers and makes no appeal in this company on her hurdles debut.
13	13 \|PU\| (13) (200/1 +60%) Princess Fiadh	200 200/1(+60%)	(13) Princess Fiadh 200/1, Twice-raced maiden under Rules. 200/1, seventh of 10 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) on hurdles bow 16 days ago. Beaten a total of 220 lengths in a bumper and a maiden hurdle; makes no appeal.

CUTA DES AS gets the vote on her hurdling debut. The daughter of It's Gino was a bumper winner last season and ended that campaign with a fine effort to finish third in Grade 3 company at Fairyhouse. She already has jumping experience, having won a point-to-point, and this looks like a nice place to start off over timber. Kiltealy Park and Pallas Athene were third and fourth in a tight finish behind Annalecka at Punchestown a month ago. The former finished off really strongly then and is fancied to confirm placings. That was her track debut and she may have scope for a bit more improvement.

PALLAS ATHENE was just behind the re-opposing Kiltealy Park when fourth at Punchestown last month but the result may have been different had Gordon Elliott's charge met the final flight on a better stride. She is taken to reverse the placings with that rival and emerge on top here. That said, Kiltealy Park is entitled to build on that Rules debut effort and she is feared, along with the Willie Mullins-trained hurdling debutante Cuta Des As, Joya Del Mar and Lep Around.

A good standard is set on her bumper form by CUTA DES AS and she can overcome a 10 month absence on her hurdles debut

13:45 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 16f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
12	12 (12) (100/1 -52%) Heidi's Frontiere	100 100/1(-52%)	(12) Heidi's Frontiere 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in bumper at Cork (16f, heavy, 12/1) 40 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Others preferred here but should be worth watching for future reference.
1	10 1st (10) (8/13 +55%) Undeniable Alibi	0.615385 8/13(+55%)	(10) Undeniable Alibi 8/13, Promising type. Third of 11 in maiden at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy, 16/5) on hurdles bow 19 days ago. Likely to improve and leading claims. Highly regarded and could be capable of a lot better especially with improved jumping.
2	11 2nd (11) (7/2 +83%) Whatsyourproblem	3.5 7/2(+83%)	(11) Whatsyourproblem 7/2, Well Chosen gelding. Brother to 2¼m bumper winner Chosen Witness. Dam (b87) bumper winner. One to note in the betting on debut. Best watched but could well be capable of a good run on debut.
3	9 3rd (9) (6/1 +70%) Stickman	6 6/1(+70%)	(9) Stickman 6/1, Maiden pointer. Showed ability in a maiden hurdle and bumper in the autumn but probably won't be of real interest until handicapping. Improved effort in a Thurles bumper in November when last seen; cheekpieces tried here.
4	3 4th (3) (10/1 +38%) Interieur Cuir	10 10/1(+38%)	(3) Interieur Cuir 10/1, Twice-raced maiden. 22/1, fifth of 15 in maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 22 days ago. In good hands but probably more one for handicaps after this. Soundly beaten in two maiden hurdles; needs this for a handicap mark.
5th	13 5th (13) (125/1 -25%) Tenacious Tess	125 125/1(-25%)	(13) Tenacious Tess 125/1, Once-raced maiden. Tenth of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Killarney (17f, good to soft, 200/1) on NH debut. Off 9 months. Didn't jump well when 200-1 for her debut at Killarney in May; off 277 days.
6th	8 6th (8) (125/1 -25%) Spavango	125 125/1(-25%)	(8) Spavango 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. 250/1, seventh of 14 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) 16 days ago. Soundly beaten in two maiden hurdles and unlikely to be a factor here.
7th	5 7th (5) (18/1 +64%) King Of Cong	18 18/1(+64%)	(5) King Of Cong 18/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 14 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 66/1) 16 days ago. Looks the stable second string here and qualifies for a mark after this.
8th	4 8th (4) (50/1 +50%) John Coffey	50 50/1(+50%)	(4) John Coffey 50/1, Watar gelding. Dam runner-up in point. A watching brief is advised on debut. Stoutly bred newcomer likely to improve for whatever he does here.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (18/1 +28%) Beechfield	18 18/1(+28%)	(1) Beechfield 18/1, Won sole start in points (Apr 2023). The betting should help guide to expectations now hurdling. Winner of his sole point at Dromahane in April; likely to need further and best watched.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (100/1 -203%) Imperial Chief	100 100/1(-203%)	(2) Imperial Chief 100/1, Arcadio gelding. Half-brother to a point winner. Dam, point winner, half-sister to Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Imperial Commander. Third in sole point in December 2022. Off 14 months ahead of this switch to hurdles. Not seen since third in a point-to-point 14 months ago; best watched.

MAROTO ran a nice race on his belated debut at Fairyhouse just over three weeks ago and is entitled to improve for the experience. The Sholokhov gelding looked set to finish fifth before a mistake at the last and a stumble soon after saw him eased up on the run-in. That was in a decent enough heat won by stablemate O'Moore Park. Undeniable Alibi looks the obvious danger having been third in a stronger maiden hurdle, won by Western Diego, at Fairyhouse 19 days ago. Milo Lises, stablemate of the selection, was disappointing at Limerick last time but is capable of better and can't be discounted.

UNDENIABLE ALIBI is taken to build on his Fairyhouse third last month and strike at the second time of asking over hurdles. The main threat will likely come from Willie Mullins pair Maroto and Milo Lises unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding John Queally newcomer Whatsyourproblem.

The one to beat should be MAROTO, who was too keen and did not jump well on debut. He should improve hugely for that experience

8th	6 8th (6) (7/1 +0%) Knockbrack Rambler	7 7/1(+0%)	(6) Knockbrack Rambler 7/1 Recent handicap debut encouraging enough without looking to stay; drop in trip could suit.

10th	8 10th (8) (12/1 +40%) Little Token	12 12/1(+40%)	(8) Little Token 12/1 C&D winner too keen over 2m4f latest; drop in trip should suit.
11th	7 11th (7) (80/1 -60%) Feyan	80 80/1(-60%)	(7) Feyan 80/1 Back from long absence when pulled up over fences last month; opposable for now.

1	7 1st (7) (9/2 -64%) Carlas Big Jim	4.5 9/2(-64%)	(7) Carlas Big Jim 9/2 Runner-up last three starts; this intermediate trip to suit and likely major player.
2	8 2nd (8) (13/2 +46%) Natural Breeze	6.5 13/2(+46%)	(8) Natural Breeze 13/2 C&D winner had some good runs earlier this season but needs to improve on recent efforts.
3	5 3rd (5) (6/1 -140%) Intersky Sunset	6 6/1(-140%)	(5) Intersky Sunset 6/1 Best form at 2m4f, not sure this drop in distance will suit but ground will.

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (11/10 +56%) Hartur D'arc	1.1 11/10(+56%)	(2) Hartur D'arc 11/10, Fairly useful chaser. Bit below form third of 14 in novice chase (13/2) at Cork (21f, soft) 81 days ago. First run for yard after leaving T. Gibney. Stable had a winner with similar switch recently, so he makes plenty of appeal. Debuts for Gavin Cromwell here after almost three months off and should be thereabouts.
2	4 2nd (4) (10/3 -67%) Joshua Webb	3.333333 10/3(-67%)	(4) Joshua Webb 10/3, Fairly useful chaser. Eleven runs since last win in 2020. Creditable third of 7 in handicap chase at Down Royal (24f, heavy, 5/1) 23 days ago. Can make presence felt. Did not get home over 3m at Down Royal last month and dropping back in trip should suit.
3	8 3rd (8) (15/2 +66%) The Gradual Slope	7.5 15/2(+66%)	(8) The Gradual Slope 15/2, Fairly useful hurdler. Fairly useful winner at 18f over hurdles. 10/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 9 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (16.2f, heavy) 22 days ago. Back up in trip. Might get a bit closer to Macdermott here but looks to have place prospects at best.
4	7 4th (7) (13/2 +28%) Quest With Speed	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(7) Quest With Speed 13/2, Fairly useful hurdler. Winner in hurdle at Limerick in November. Good third of 14 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Naas (18.5f, soft) 18 days ago. Makes chase debut. Solid third in a Naas handicap hurdle last month; best watched switched to fences.
5th	6 5th (6) (5/1 +55%) Petit King	5 5/1(+55%)	(6) Petit King 5/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 8 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Punchestown (19.9f, soft) 10 days ago, closing all way to line. Switches from hurdles to chase. Cheekpieces are retained and no surprise if he did better this time returning to fences.
6th	1 6th (1) (28/1 +30%) Another Ocana	28 28/1(+30%)	(1) Another Ocana 28/1, Fair hurdler. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Limerick (19f, heavy, 9/1) 48 days ago. Makes chase debut. Won at Limerick over Christmas; hurdle rating leaves him with plenty to find here.
7th	9 7th (9) (125/1 -56%) Fort Randall	125 125/1(-56%)	(9) Fort Randall 125/1, 200/1, twelfth of 14 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, heavy) 22 days ago. Makes chase debut. Bumper winner but soundly beaten in maiden hurdles and makes no appeal on his chase debut.

JOSHUA WEBB has been lightly raced since winning a bumper and maiden hurdle both on heavy ground at Navan in his younger days but has given plenty of encouragement that he can add to that tally over fences this term. The Noel Meade-trained gelding has filled the runner-up spot twice over similar trips including behind subsequent Paddy Power Chase winner Meetingofthewaters at Cork with Hartur D'arc ten lengths back in third and MacDermott sixth. Hartur D'arc previously went close at Galway, while MacDermott was again let down by his jumping when second to Farmers Lodge at Fairyhouse last month. Petit King was soundly beaten on both chase outings last autumn but has been in good form since over hurdles.

HARTUR D'ARC and Joshua Webb are closely matched on form but the former has made a positive stable switch and is likely to improve, so he's preferred. Petit King is able to get involved if he can replicate his hurdling form in this sphere.

The one to beat is JOSHUA WEBB (nap) after two solid runner-up efforts at Cork and Down Royal before not getting home over 3m last time

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.
