BUTTERFLYVESPIERE is joint-top-rated hurdler at 116 and receives 7lb. She returned from 529 days off when jumping well on chase debut and while she tired, that was a better race and looks sure to improve, albeit she might prefer slightly better ground. Old Soul failed to concede 7lb to a now-128 rated mare over course and distance in February and had previously run well at Punchestown (the runner-up won subsequently). He has strong claims but might prefer further. Rolly Bowley Boy held every chance when exiting on chase debut here last month. He should be more suited by today's distance so can get involved. Gali Flight showed improvement on recent chase debut but is a 21-race maiden. Teescomponentsyess notably ran out over today's same course and distance in February 2022 while Takarengo, third in the 2020 English Cesarewitch, isn't a natural jumper and debuts over fences. Reappearing Magheralin Mick debuts over fences and might prefer summer ground.

Cases can be made for several, but ROLLY BOWLEY BOY was still in front before departing late at this track last month on chasing bow so, provided he's none the worse from that spill, Ciaran Murphy's charge can make amends. Gali Flight went as close to winning as he ever has when finishing runner-up on chase debut last month, so he heads up the dangers, ahead of Teescomponentsyess and Old Soul.

ROLLY BOWLEY BOY was running a big race on chasing debut here last time before falling and is preferred.

EMANCIPATOR won last year's renewal on chase debut by 20 lengths and returns to fences. Ideally suited by conditions, he won a hurdle last November and while pulled up, when reported to be coughing, in January, has had a break and will have had today's race as a target. Joy Of Life was hampered when pulling up at Limerick but is better judged by previous chase runs and should compete. Eddies Pride won from 5lb lower when last seen in November while Pana To Milan is interesting on chase debut, as she also steps up to this distance for the first time. Three-time winner Earths Furies is able at this level but hasn't won since February 2022. Four-time winner Sean Says has been running reasonably well.

C&D winner EMANCIPATOR looked on the up until pulled up at Gowran and is taken to return in style after a break. Sean Says is next on the list on the back of his solid Thurles fourth ahead of the handily-weighted Joy of Life.

EMANCIPATOR won over C&D on chasing debut last year and can repeat the feat.

BAY AMBITION has been running well and is suited by testing ground and this distance. She has yet to win in 10 chases but ran quite well when third over an inadequate distance here last month, with the winner franking the form by finishing second in last weekend's Ulster National. Rebel Early was 33 lengths behind the selection in that recent race and while the pair re-oppose on similar terms, Rebel Early should at least get closer on handicap chase debut, as her own hurdle rating is 7lb higher than her chase mark. Good As Hell won on good ground last October but is possibly best watched reappearing on testing ground. Sweet Street's best form is also on good but makes her handicap chase debut from a 5lb lower mark to hurdles.

BAY AMBITION has a much more solid profile than the rest of these and can gain an overdue first chase success. Lizrona will be a danger if bouncing back to the form she showed when successful over fences at Thurles just before Christmas, while Seangoell should find this a good bit easier than the Limerick Grade 3 she contested last time.

Third in a novice over 2m4f here last time, BAY AMBITION(nap) will relish the extra distance and can get off the mark chasing.

TOP SPEED returns following a break and receives weight from previous winners. A debut point-to-point winner, his form has been unexciting but ran well in a smart contest during Christmas, with the second, fourth and fifth all winning subsequently. Point-to-point and bumper winner Fameaftertheglory has failed in nine hurdles and four chases but has often run well in defeat, is sure to run well but carries a penalty. Feu De Bresil returned from a 1,530 days absence last Christmas and while he travels well in his races, finds little. Ex-Ballydoyle trained San Martino has been well held over hurdles but has beaten plenty rivals and has place claims under his penalty. Conyers Hill showed improvement in an ordinary race here last month while newcomer Champagne Mahler is a brother to a capable winning stayer. Marciano is a sibling to three winners and is out of a half-sister to Colonel Braxton.

FAMEAFTERTHEGLORY has been knocking at the door in similar company this year and is taken to finally get his head in front. Feu du Bresil ran his best race coming over from France when second at Thurles last time and will be a threat if building on that. Conyers Hill and Top Speed look capable of better than they've shown and also make the shortlist.

One of these should fall the way of FAMEAFTERTHEGLORY who has been running well in defeat in tougher races than this

Three-time point winner DESERT HEATHER is consistent. Her Punchestown run was boosted by the runner-up winning subsequently, suffered minor interference when beaten at Limerick and has form at this distance. It is puzzling to see Kilbarry Saint (out of a Listed flat winner and by a leading French stallion) contest a late-season maiden hurdle having shown real promise, when green, on point-to-point debut, with the runner-up subsequently selling for 150,000 pounds. She receives plenty weight and is a fascinating runner. Champagnesocialist won an ordinary bumper by 19 lengths last September, has recent form and her rider's 7lb claim mostly offsets her 8lb penalty. Bint Freya and Will You Win have minor place claims while Walk Out faces a tougher task than when exiting late-on at Thurles.

This can go to DESERT HEATHER, who is still low mileage and caught the eye when runner-up at Limerick last month. Champagnesocialist and Bint Freya rate the principal dangers.

DESERT HEATHER was 2nd at Limerick last month and a shorter trip shouldn't be an issue with testing ground in her favour

MILLSTREAM LADY's recent course form is working out and she could be ahead of the handicapper. She showed improvement when chasing home a subsequent winner (now rated 112) last month, with the third being an unlucky loser last weekend and the fourth now being rated 102. She steps up in distance and her rider claims 7lb. Keen-going Mighty Jeremy has been running well, following a layoff, and has claims from just 2lb higher. Shean Glory disappointed on her latest run but is generally consistent and beat a subsequent winner here in February. Tingarran Express has some decent form but is a 12-raced maiden, while recent point-to-point winner Lilian Bland ran well over hurdles last month.

MILLSTREAM LADY looks to have got in lightly for her handicap bow so gets the vote at the chief expense of recent course second Tingarran Express. Mighty Jeremy is another who can have a say on the back of his good Cork second.

MIGHTY JEREMY has run with credit since returning from a lengthy absence and he's only been nudged up 2lb for a narrow defeat latest

A chance is taken that well-bred SHANNON ROYALE wasn't himself when disappointing on bumper debut. He chased home smart dual bumper winner Willmount in a February 2022 point-to-point before selling for 300,000 pounds, and hung when disappointing at Fairyhouse. He was a reserve non-runner in February and it is encouraging connections have opted for another bumper. Willie Mullins' Toad Hall is a half-brother to three winners, including Eye Van, and while he could be smart, nonetheless makes a belated debut aged six. Points winner Extrapolation ran well on bumper debut for a new yard and looks sure to run well while seven year old Pray Tell was an unlucky loser of a winners' point at Nenagh but faces a tougher task. Walk Away Harry is a sibling to four winners and could make things interesting while Read The Room hails from the War Of Attrition academy and is a distant relative of Denman.

TOAD HALL represents top connections and may well be capable of making a successful start. Extrapolation has the best form to date and looks a danger, while Shannon Royale can't be dismissed with improvement on the cards.

EXTRAPOLATION sets a reasonable standard. The point winner ran a big race on Rules debut and he may progress from that

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.
