1	1 1st (1) (2/1 -23%) Rosscarbery		2 2/1(-23%)																															(1) Rosscarbery 2/1, Smart mare. C&D winner. 20/1, creditable 4½ lengths fifth of 14 to Emily Upjohn in Fillies' & Mares' Stakes at Ascot (12f, good to soft). Off 8 months but in excellent hands and she's the form pick. Last year's winner the one to beat although may not want it too fast.
2	5 2nd (5) (2.75/1 +21%) Azazat		2.75 2.75/1(+21%)																															(5) Azazat 2.75/1, Confirmed reappearance promise when winning 10-runner maiden at Leopardstown (12f, heavy, 4/6) 40 days ago, soon clear. This asks for more but limit hasn't been reached. Leopardstown maiden likely open to improvement on this better ground.
3	8 3rd (8) (14/1 +44%) Thunder Roll		14 14/1(+44%)																															(8) Thunder Roll 14/1, Runner-up on debut and better form when 2 lengths third of 5 to Tower of London in listed race at Leopardstown (12f, good) 8 days ago. Should have more to offer fo excellent yard. Will appreciate the likely stronger pace here but this is a big step up in class.
4	7 4th (7) (16/1 -33%) Library		16 16/1(-33%)																															(7) Library 16/1, Fairly useful filly. 9¾ lengths sixth of 8 to Pensee Du Jour in Prix Penelope at Saint-Cloud (10.4f, good to soft, 83/10) 76 days ago. Blinkers on and this looks an uphill task. Tame seasonal return in Group 3 Prix Penelope; blinkers tried and plenty to find.
5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 -25%) Lambada		10 10/1(-25%)																															(6) Lambada 10/1, Winning reappearance at Gowran in April. Fared as well as could be expected when 8½ lengths sixth of 8 to Soul Sister in Musidora Stakes at York (10.2f, good to firm, 10/1) 30 days ago. Can't be underestimated given yard she represents. Musidora also-ran but this step up in distance could be what she needs.
6th	4 6th (4) (3/1 +40%) Final Gesture		3 3/1(+40%)																															(4) Final Gesture 3/1, Useful filly. First run since leaving H-A. Pantall and much improved when winning 11-runner listed race (4/1) at Gowran (14f, good to soft) 44 days ago by 5 lengths from Joupe, driven out. Worth a shot at this level. Impressive debut for new connections at Gowran; upped in class but big player.
7th	2 7th (2) (28/1 -75%) Annerville		28 28/1(-75%)																															(2) Annerville 28/1, Useful mare. Visored for first time, excellent 1½ lengths second of 6 to Mashhoor in listed race at the Curragh (12f, good, 11/2) 20 days ago. Blinkers the headgear of choice. Not easy to win with but back to best with recent Curragh second; bit to find still.
8th	3 8th (3) (12/1 -71%) Cairde Go Deo		12 12/1(-71%)																															(3) Cairde Go Deo 12/1, Useful filly. 16/1 and tongue strap on for first time, 4½ lengths seventh of 9 to Yashin in Saval Beg Levmoss Stakes at Leopardstown (14f, good) 28 days ago. That was a sound return to action and slight drop in trip will suit. Back to probably her best trip and definite claims on the best of her form; ground to suit.

LTO Selection:

Paddy Twomey's ROSSCARBERY won this race last year and may repeat the feat. She has to give weight away to the field which will take a bit of doing, but her class will help. The form of her fifth place in a Group 1 at Ascot last October is working out very well. The winner has since landed the Group 1 Coronation Cup while the third reappeared this season to win a Group 3 in the Curragh. The horse a place behind Rosscarbery in sixth has been successful in a Group 3 and in a Listed race. Rosscarbery has won off a break before. Twomey also saddles Final Gesture who was impressive in taking a Listed race by five lengths in Gowran Park last month. That was her Irish debut after winning twice in France. She has the race-fitness advantage on her stablemate. This trip, better ground and first-time blinkers could elicit a big run from Library. Her dam actually won this race in 2015. Azazat was very good in Leopardstown and will welcome the forecast rain. None of the remainder can be ruled out with confidence.

ROSSCARBERY must concede weight all round but she's already proven at this level, winning this race a year ago and sure to be well prepared for this reappearance given the yard she represents, she's likely up to the challenge. Stablemate Final Gesture created an excellent impression at Gowran and she's feared, with Azazat open to any amount of progress.

Paddy Twomey holds a very strong hand and last year's winner ROSSCARBERY gets the nod over Final Gesture

1	9 1st (9) (2.5/1 +17%) Star Kissed		2.5 2.5/1(+17%)																															(9) Star Kissed 2.5/1, Promising individual. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 9/4, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Roscommon (11.7f, good) 15 days ago, readily. Has to be taken seriously. Roscommon winner up 5lb but likely still more to offer; shortlisted.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 +0%) Safecracker		5 5/1(+0%)																															(1) Safecracker 5/1, 4/1, respectable seventh of 15 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good) 20 days ago, ridden 2f out and keeping on. Step back up in trip rates a plus and expected to be in the mix (runner up in this 12 months ago). Last year's second needs to improve on recent form; yard in fine form.
3	12 3rd (12) (16/1 +0%) Pralognan		16 16/1(+0%)																															(12) Pralognan 16/1, 14/1, second of 9 in handicap at Roscommon (10.3f, good to soft) 25 days ago, running on. Looks competitive on form. Strong-finishing Roscommon second shapes as though this trip will suit and could go well.
4	10 4th (10) (5.5/1 +61%) Morph Speed		5.5 5.5/1(+61%)																															(10) Morph Speed 5.5/1, C&D winner (won this race 2 years ago). Good second of 14 in handicap (9/2) at Leopardstown (12.8f, good) 8 days ago. Stable in good form and no surprise to see another good showing. 2021 winner just denied at Leopardstown; nice weight and claiming rider good value.
5th	3 5th (3) (5.5/1 +31%) Golden Twilight		5.5 5.5/1(+31%)																															(3) Golden Twilight 5.5/1, 11/1, good third of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (14f, good) 19 days ago, well positioned. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Back to probably his ideal trip with cheekpieces tried so respected.
6th	7 6th (7) (7.5/1 +66%) Kingswear		7.5 7.5/1(+66%)																															(7) Kingswear 7.5/1, 18/1, respectable seventh of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (14f, good) 19 days ago, effort 3f out and one paced. Needs to pull out a bit more. Best recent form on soft, others look more likely.
7th	6 7th (6) (33/1 -230%) Female Soldier		33 33/1(-230%)																															(6) Female Soldier 33/1, Below form fourth of 12 in minor event (10/3) at Listowel (13f, good) 12 days ago. Must improve. Both runs this term in conditions events below best so has a could bit to find.
8th	11 8th (11) (16/1 +11%) Boher Road		16 16/1(+11%)																															(11) Boher Road 16/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. Hood on for 1st time in this code, unseated rider in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft, 6/5) 24 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Back from hurdling but unproven over this far; tough task.
9th	13 9th (13) (16/1 +0%) Rich Belief		16 16/1(+0%)																															(13) Rich Belief 16/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Re-united with this yard, respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Killarney (16.8f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Down in trip. Not sure this trip on quick ground will see him to best effect.
10th	14 10th (14) (16/1 -78%) Last Ammo		16 16/1(-78%)																															(14) Last Ammo 16/1, 10/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (12.8f, good) 8 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Another live each-way player. Didn't get home over 1m5f at Leopardstown latest after racing keenly; not one to rule out.
11th	2 11th (2) (16/1 -78%) Old Port		16 16/1(-78%)																															(2) Old Port 16/1, Six wins from 16 Flat runs. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (10f) in November. Return to further will hold no fears on return and interesting what the market makes of him starting out for new yard. Fast ground winner in Britain but tough-looking task on Irish debut.
12th	8 12th (8) (80/1 -21%) Ace Aussie		80 80/1(-21%)																															(8) Ace Aussie 80/1, Course winner. Eighth of 12 in minor event at Listowel (13f, good, 100/1) 12 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Nothing yet for current yard but has taken a nosedive in the ratings; acts on quick ground.
13th	5 13th (5) (66/1 -65%) Dalton Highway		66 66/1(-65%)																															(5) Dalton Highway 66/1, Last of 9 in handicap (40/1) at Gowran (13.7f, heavy) 59 days ago, ridden over 3f out and soon beaten. That was his first start for 18 months and this ought to reveal a good deal more. Poor comeback run and veteran can only be watched for now.

LTO Selection:

---

GOLDEN TWILIGHT has claims over this trip. He travelled notably well before dropping to third over 1m6f at the Curragh last month. He certainly knows where the winning post is with five career victories, including three over this distance. First-time cheekpieces are applied. Star Kissed has two wins and two close second places among her five races to date. She is still growing into her frame, but should be deeply involved. Morph Speed was only caught close home over slightly further in Leopardstown which gives him claims. The handicapper has dropped Safecracker by 3lb. He was only 1lb lower when runner-up in a premier handicap at the Curragh last September. Spasiba is entitled to come on from an unplaced comeback run at Killarney. A combination of a tongue-strap and cheekpieces go on. Pralognan and Rich Belief are others to consider.

STAR KISSED was quick to resume progress on her second start in handicaps when running out a ready winner at Roscommon 15 days ago and a 5 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold bid with the prospect of more to come. Last year's runner-up Safecracker is a threat from an easing mark, with Spasiba, Morph Speed and Pralognan others also worthy of note.

Preference is for the improving filly STAR KISSED, who could still be ahead of the handicapper

1	14 1st (14) (14/1 -17%) Chica Power		14 14/1(-17%)																															(14) Chica Power 14/1, Run best excused when eleventh of 15 in handicap (20/1) at Listowel (8f, good) 12 days ago, going off too hard. Lots of improvement needed on two recent runs over 1m, drop in trip will suit.
2	12 2nd (12) (8.5/1 +29%) Swiss Army Officer		8.5 8.5/1(+29%)																															(12) Swiss Army Officer 8.5/1, Made a successful return at Roscommon in May but went backwards from that at Listowel (8f, good, 9/2) 12 days ago, weakening when hampered final 1f. Bounce back needed. Not much luck in running at Listowel since so not one to rule out given a clearer run.
3	17 3rd (17) (14/1 +65%) Corballis Flyer		14 14/1(+65%)																															(17) Corballis Flyer 14/1, Modest handicapper who shaped as if amiss at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) on final outing in October. Needs to have benefited from a break. Seasonal return and probably best watched from 5lb out of handicap.
4	11 4th (11) (28/1 +30%) Hastily		28 28/1(+30%)																															(11) Hastily 28/1, Opened her account at the second attempt in handicaps over C&D in August. Proved a disappointment at Naas 9 days later though and not seen since. C&D winner last August returns from lengthy absence and may need this.
5th	9 5th (9) (28/1 -100%) Final Check		28 28/1(-100%)																															(9) Final Check 28/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, seventh of 8 in maiden at Listowel (6.3f, good) 12 days ago. Makes handicap debut and improvement required. Unexposed 3yo entering handicap company; yard has a decent strike rate.
6th	8 6th (8) (8/1 -23%) Markievicz		8 8/1(-23%)																															(8) Markievicz 8/1, Scored at Navan in May and run best excused at the Curragh (6.3f, good) 9 days ago, unable to sustain effort having been stuck out on wing. Navan winner's 11lb rise has her in the handicapper's grasp now.
7th	5 7th (5) (22/1 +0%) I Know I Can		22 22/1(+0%)																															(5) I Know I Can 22/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs and was again below form after 3 months off when sixth of 13 in handicap at Sligo (5.7f, soft) 47 days ago, never nearer. Back up in trip. Ground against him on turf return in April, could have more to offer back on this surface.
8th	22 8th (22) (14/1 +50%) Inthepoorhouse		14 14/1(+50%)																															(22) Inthepoorhouse 14/1, Modest maiden. 11/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Roscommon (7.2f, good) 15 days ago. Eased 4 lb but needs to up his game. Good Curragh run in April but disappointing since; looks to have it to do off this mark.
9th	16 9th (16) (16/1 +68%) Cheeky Peek		16 16/1(+68%)																															(16) Cheeky Peek 16/1, Fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 10/1) 42 days ago. Some fair C&D form but hard to see her playing a major role; 7lb wrong.
10th	1 10th (1) (16/1 +27%) Maid To Shine		16 16/1(+27%)																															(1) Maid To Shine 16/1, Winner at Dundalk in February. Fourteenth of 17 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 28/1) 8 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Struggled to get home on turf of late; down in grade but top-weight opposable.
11th	7 11th (7) (33/1 -18%) Kami		33 33/1(-18%)																															(7) Kami 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, last of 8 in handicap at Sligo (10.4f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Contrasting trips for opening handicap efforts in the spring, this trip could suit.
12th	19 12th (19) (2.75/1 +58%) Golden Days		2.75 2.75/1(+58%)																															(19) Golden Days 2.75/1, C&D winner who wasn't disgraced after 7 months off on first run since leaving Tracey Collins when ¾-length fourth of 15 to Swiss Army Officer in handicap at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Should go well again. Encouraging seasonal return at Roscommon makes her a player if handling wide draw.
13th	23 13th (23) (14/1 +65%) Allie Bear		14 14/1(+65%)																															(23) Allie Bear 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden who failed to improve sent handicapping when seventh of 23 to Markievicz at Navan (5.8f, soft, 66/1) 34 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Back up in trip. Unexposed 3yo with longer trip to suit and potential improver.
14th	20 14th (20) (100/1 -100%) Short N Sweet		100 100/1(-100%)																															(20) Short N Sweet 100/1, Tailed-off last of 23 to Markievicz in handicap at Navan (5.8f, soft, 80/1) 34 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Back up in trip. Beaten just one rival in two starts this campaign; hard to see her making the breakthrough.
15th	3 15th (3) (4/1 -60%) Rockbury Lad		4 4/1(-60%)																															(3) Rockbury Lad 4/1, Maiden who shaped as if still in good form when fourth of 14 in handicap at Naas (8f, heavy) 53 days ago, unable to sustain effort having made headway out wide. Remains of interest. On a competitive mark and one to consider although draw not ideal.
16th	6 16th (6) (20/1 +50%) Mass Gathering		20 20/1(+50%)																															(6) Mass Gathering 20/1, Respectable fourth of 12 in claimer at Tipperary (7.5f, good, 25/1) 17 days ago. Likely to find life tougher back in handicap company. Encouraging run in Tipperary claimer but 2lb rise for that doesn't do her any favours.
17th	21 17th (21) (50/1 -25%) Talking Tough		50 50/1(-25%)																															(21) Talking Tough 50/1, Thirty eight runs since last win in 2020 and was well held after 6 months off at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 15 days ago. Good second at Killarney last summer hasn't been neared since; 1lb wrong.
18th	24 18th (24) (25/1 -14%) Lady Skipper		25 25/1(-14%)																															(24) Lady Skipper 25/1, 20/1, again ran below form when seventh of 16 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good) 11 days ago. Back down in trip. Visor on for 1st time. Extended 1m1f probably too far last time, return to this trip should suit; visor tried.
19th	18 19th (18) (50/1 +0%) El Maga		50 50/1(+0%)																															(18) El Maga 50/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021 and ran badly at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Poor form so far this year; reduced mark but remains of limited appeal; 2lb wrong.
20th	15 20th (15) (50/1 -25%) Amazing One		50 50/1(-25%)																															(15) Amazing One 50/1, Thirty runs since last win in 2020. Last of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (6f, 50/1). Off 121 days. Losing run since 2020 and struggling on AW when last seen in February; 7lb wrong too.

LTO Selection:

GOLDEN DAYS has each-way claims in this massive field. There was plenty to like about her seasonal reappearance fourth over an extended 7f in Roscommon last month. She was beaten less than a length at the finish and there could be improvement to come particularly as she has a C&D success in the book. It was Swiss Army Officer who won that aforementioned race in Roscommon and he has an obvious chance. He wasn't at his best on his last start in Listowel but, afterwards, his jockey reported that he had to check off heels. Markievicz won in this grade on her penultimate start in Navan and is eminently capable of getting in the mix. Rockbury Lad and Mass Gathering will be eyeing prize money.

ROCKBURY LAD has shaped well on both his starts this year and can defy his current mark granted a bit of luck in running in this big field. Markievicz had an excuse last time and is better judged on her Navan success. Golden Days completes the shortlist.

After a promising recent comeback run, previous C&D winner GOLDEN DAYS gets the vote

22	22 (22) (66/1 -100%) Poet's Pride		66 66/1(-100%)																															(22) Poet's Pride 66/1, Latest win at Dundalk in February. 50/1, below form seventh of 12 in claimer at Tipperary (7.5f, good) 17 days ago. Others more persuasive. Five-time winner on AW; 0-25 record on turf is a major negative.
1	14 1st (14) (10/1 +60%) Talia		10 10/1(+60%)																															(14) Talia 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, ninth of 10 in maiden at Naas (8f, heavy) 82 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Peter McCreery. Makes handicap debut. Lightly raced 3yo; change of yards and quicker ground could see improvement.
2	5 2nd (5) (7.5/1 +12%) Sondheim		7.5 7.5/1(+12%)																															(5) Sondheim 7.5/1, C&D winner. 10/1, good sixth of 25 in handicap at this C&D (good) 30 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Last year's winner hinted at return to form over C&D last month; blinkered now.
3	18 3rd (18) (7/1 +42%) Florence Thompson		7 7/1(+42%)																															(18) Florence Thompson 7/1, 20/1, first run since leaving James McAuley when good second of 16 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 15 days ago, very much having run of race. Enters calculations. C&D second and recent Fairyhouse second likes decent ground and should go well.
4	13 4th (13) (22/1 -100%) Western Cape		22 22/1(-100%)																															(13) Western Cape 22/1, 4/1 and hooded for 1st time, creditable fourth of 10 in claimer at Fairyhouse (10f, good) 15 days ago. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Below best in claimers of late; handicapper giving him a chance but others preferred.
5th	2 5th (2) (20/1 +9%) Gobi Star		20 20/1(+9%)																															(2) Gobi Star 20/1, 17/2, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Listowel (6.3f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Down 7lb after two below-par runs this season; this trip stretches him.
6th	10 6th (10) (6.5/1 -44%) Catherine Chroi		6.5 6.5/1(-44%)																															(10) Catherine Chroi 6.5/1, 3/1, creditable fourth of 16 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 15 days ago, left with too much to do. Looks competitive on form. Flew home at Fairyhouse; worth another chance at this longer trip, big player if staying.
7th	1 7th (1) (5/1 -43%) Gegenpressing		5 5/1(-43%)																															(1) Gegenpressing 5/1, 8/1, creditable fourth of 21 in handicap at the Curragh (6.3f, good) 9 days ago. Shortlist material. Some solid form this year; down in grade here so respected.
8th	3 8th (3) (40/1 +0%) Jabbar		40 40/1(+0%)																															(3) Jabbar 40/1, First run since leaving Andrew Balding when creditable sixth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 119 days. First run for yard after leaving G. O'Leary. Must improve. Long absent until Dundalk February run; probably best watched for now.
9th	21 9th (21) (25/1 -56%) It Might Be You		25 25/1(-56%)																															(21) It Might Be You 25/1, Remains a maiden after 26 Flat runs. 22/1, third of 16 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 15 days ago. Split Florence Thompson and Catherine Chroi at Fairyhouse; not certain 7f will suit.
10th	7 10th (7) (33/1 -18%) Trueba		33 33/1(-18%)																															(7) Trueba 33/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Listowel (8f, good, 18/1) 12 days ago, not clear run. Hasn't won in nearly two years and this year's form poor; hard to fancy.
11th	23 11th (23) (7.5/1 +0%) Well Suited		7.5 7.5/1(+0%)																															(23) Well Suited 7.5/1, Thirty three runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 15 in handicap at Listowel (8f, good, 10/1) 12 days ago. Not taken lightly. Caught late on over 1m at Listowel; drop in trip no problem and should go well again.
12th	20 12th (20) (50/1 -25%) Coffeemeanscoffee		50 50/1(-25%)																															(20) Coffeemeanscoffee 50/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, below form ninth of 18 in handicap at this course (6f, good). Off 8 months. Tongue strap back on. Both wins at 6f, recent form doesn't suggest a third win is imminent; 7lb wrong.
13th	16 13th (16) (100/1 -150%) Merlins Muse		100 100/1(-150%)																															(16) Merlins Muse 100/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2019. Thirteenth of 18 in handicap (80/1) at Fairyhouse (6f, good) 15 days ago. US winner on quick ground but hard to be confident in on recent form.

LTO Selection:

The handicapper has eased GEGENPRESSING by 3lb which enables him to drop into the basement grade, and he could do some damage. He has performed creditably in higher grades at Leopardstown, Naas and the Curragh this season. Catherine Chroi wouldn't be winning out of turn. She has been placed on her last three starts and, on each occasion, has been keeping on over shorter trips. She has a 7f success at Dundalk in the book. Well Suited had victory snatched from him in the latter stages at Listowel. That effort bodes well for a big run here. Florence Thompson is a long-standing maiden, but isn't without a chance. After a long period competing on the Polytrack in Dundalk, she raced prominently in Fairyhouse before being caught close home. She has actually been placed on her last six visits to this track. Sondheim could be in there pitching in first-time blinkers. He won this race last year.

GEGENPRESSING ran his best race of the season when fourth in a big field at the Curragh 9 days ago and looks ready to strike now dipped below his last winning mark. Well Suited and Catherine Chroi head the dangers.

Having flown home at Fairyhouse CATHERINE CHROI can reverse form with Florence Thompson and It Might Be You over this trip

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.
