4	4 (4) (3.5/1 +89%) Sturlasson		3.5 3.5/1(+89%)																															(4) Sturlasson 3.5/1, Second to Bucanero Fuerte (beaten 2¾ lengths) over C&D and Noche Magica (beaten 3¾ lengths) at Navan this spring. Hard to see how he'll turn the tables on those rivals. Beaten by Bucanero Fuerte over C&D and Noche Magica at Cork; has ground to make up.
1	2 1st (2) (2.5/1 +44%) His Majesty		2.5 2.5/1(+44%)																															(2) His Majesty 2.5/1, Foaled January 5. 325,000 gns No Nay Never colt. Half-brother to 6f winner Coill Avon and 1m/8.3f winner Spanish, both useful. Dam winner up to 1m (Park Express Stakes and also 2-y-o 6f winner). Very interesting newcomer. A 325,000gns yearling is by a top sire; follow market leads for outstanding yard.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/1 +13%) Valiant Force		7 7/1(+13%)																															(6) Valiant Force 7/1, Foaled February 22. $100,000 Malibu Moon colt. Dam unraced half-sister to useful winner Joyful Heart out of useful 8.5f (including at 2 yrs) winner Blue Heart. Kevin Stott partnered stablemate Bucanero Fuerte on debut. Very interesting to see how she goes in the betting. Stablemate of Bucanero Fuerte but that owner's retained rider on board this; interesting.
3	5 3rd (5) (1.88/1 +62%) Unquestionable		1.88 1.88/1(+62%)																															(5) Unquestionable 1.88/1, Foaled April 7. €340,000 Wootton Bassett colt. Dam ran twice out of useful winner up to 7f (2-y-o 5f winner) Crying Lightening, runner-up in Sweet Solera Stakes. One of 2 newcomers for top stable. The Betting should provide more clues. By a leading sire and cost 340,000euros as a yearling; follow market leads.
4	7 4th (7) (22/1 +78%) Blame Thechampagne		22 22/1(+78%)																															(7) Blame Thechampagne 22/1, 6/1, fourth of 8 in maiden (6/1) at this C&D (heavy) on debut 15 days ago. Open to progress but a good chunk of improvement will be needed. Ran a respectable race on debut over C&D; has to improve a fair bit.
5th	8 5th (8) (9/1 +91%) Love Ya		9 9/1(+91%)																															(8) Love Ya 9/1, 14/1, third of 6 in maiden (14/1) at Dundalk (5f) on debut 20 days ago. Open to improvement but this is a jump in class. . Signs of greenness on debut; is closely matched with Vanity Pays on that run.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, the horse with the most promising form and likely improvement is 0.91/1 (3) NOCHE MAGICA. However, the newcomers 4.5/1 (2) HIS MAJESTY and 5/1 (5) UNQUESTIONABLE are also described as very interesting and should be followed in the betting. 8/1 (6) VALIANT FORCE and 10/1 (1) BUCANERO FUERTE are respected but have some ground to make up on 0.91/1 (3) NOCHE MAGICA. 33/1 (4) STURLASSON and 100/1 (7) BLAME THECHAMPAGNE will need to improve significantly to compete. 100/1 (8) LOVE YA is seen as having potential but may struggle in this class.

Probably the best juvenile contest of the season so far and it may prove sensible to rely on NOCHE MAGICA who impressed on his Cork debut. Patiently ridden before being produced to lead at the furlong pole, he won going away and looks a smart colt. His experience may see him get the better of the unraced Aidan O'Brien pair Unquestionable and His Majesty, who both look the part on paper. Valiant Force is an interesting alternative for the places.

NOCHE MAGICA created a very good impression on his Cork debut last month and can confirm he's a smart prospect. Bucanero Fuerte also arrives on the back of a promising debut success and looks the chief threat unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding Aidan O'Brien newcomers His Majesty and/or Unquestionable.

On form, NOCHE MAGICA has a bit to spare over Bucanero Fuerte on a line through Sturlasson and is the selection.

1	6 1st (6) (0.83/1 +0%) Paddington		0.83 0.83/1(+0%)																															(6) Paddington 0.83/1, Promising type. Course winner. 6/4, won 7-runner handicap at Naas (7f, heavy) 36 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Duke of Leggagh, pushed out. Smart prospect and the one to beat. Looked like a Group-standard horse in the making in the Madrid Handicap, sets the standard.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/1 -100%) Drumroll		6 6/1(-100%)																															(3) Drumroll 6/1, Once-raced winner. 13/2, won 12-runner maiden at Navan (8f, heavy) on debut 33 days ago, slowly away. Trainer going well. Should improve. Brother to Saxon Warrior, overcame inexperience when winning on debut, second-string.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 +60%) Mister Mister		10 10/1(+60%)																															(5) Mister Mister 10/1, Lightly-raced winner. 9/4, 5 lengths fifth of 6 to Speirling Beag in Eyrefield Stakes at Leopardstown (9f, soft), finding less than looked likely. Off 6 months. Hood on 1st time. 1m Gowran maiden winner, failed to build on that when tried over 1m1f at this level.
4	2 4th (2) (50/1 -25%) Cuban Dawn		50 50/1(-25%)																															(2) Cuban Dawn 50/1, €200,000 yearling, Teofilo colt. Dam unraced, closely related to 1½m winner Feile Na Mban (by New Approach) and 1¼m-13f winner (stayed 15f) Ceol Na Nog (by Teofilo), both useful. Stiff ask on debut. Must be held in some regard to merit introduction at this level, will need to be smart.
5th	1 5th (1) (2.5/1 +17%) Bold Discovery		2.5 2.5/1(+17%)																															(1) Bold Discovery 2.5/1, Promising sort. 2½ lengths second of 5 to Hans Andersen in Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial (9/4) at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy) 29 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve again. Twice Group 3-placed behind Ballydoyle winners, faces talented rivals from same source.
6th	4 6th (4) (18/1 +73%) Duke Of Leggagh		18 18/1(+73%)																															(4) Duke Of Leggagh 18/1, Fairly useful gelding. Latest win at Navan in March. Good second of 8 in handicap (10/3) at Gowran (8f, soft) 12 days ago. On the upgrade but more needed again. Progressive handicapper but no apparent chance against Paddington on these terms.

LTO Selection:

---

0.83/1 (6) PADDINGTON is the one predicted to do well based on the summary.

Madrid Handicap winner Paddington is certainly going the right way and has to be highly respected given he has the highest official rating. However, BOLD DISCOVERY, who has been placed twice in Group 3 company, arguably sets the standard on form and he looks the brightest prospect at this stage. Drumroll, a debut scorer at Navan, is also feared given his stellar pedigree and has to be taken seriously now he tackles a higher calibre of opponent.

PADDINGTON looked potentially smart when winning a 20-runner maiden by 5 lengths here in October and that impression still stands having readily followed up on his handicap bow at Naas on return. He's taken to complete the hat-trick with Bold Discovery next best ahead of Drumroll.

This is a good opportunity for PADDINGTON to make a winning transition to a higher grade. He impressed in winning the Madrid Handicap

1	6 1st (6) (3.5/1 +22%) Snowcapped		3.5 3.5/1(+22%)																															(6) Snowcapped 3.5/1, Twice-raced winner. Won 11-runner maiden at Gowran (8f, soft, 9/1) 12 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Can give a good account.
2	2 2nd (2) (28/1 -40%) Lovejoy		28 28/1(-40%)																															(2) Lovejoy 28/1, Lightly-raced winner. One win from 2 runs last year. Last of 6 in minor event at Gowran (7f, heavy, 50/1) 13 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Must improve.

8th	9 8th (9) (9/1 +44%) Net A Porter Queen		9 9/1(+44%)																															(9) Net A Porter Queen 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, seventh of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (7f, 33/1) 17 days ago. Makes handicap debut.

LTO Selection:

4.5/1 (6) SNOWCAPPED and 2/1 (1) QUEEN MAEDBH are the most likely to do well based on their recent wins and potential for progress. 6/1 (3) QUEENIE ST CLAIR and 20/1 (8) EVENING'S EMPIRE also have some potential to perform well, but may not be as strong of contenders as 4.5/1 (6) SNOWCAPPED and 2/1 (1) QUEEN MAEDBH.

SNOWCAPPED shed her maiden tag when getting up on the line over 1m at Gowran Park. The daughter of Churchill is likely to have much more to come on only her third start, and she is taken to double up. The main threat looks to be Dundalk winner Queen Maedbh, who also makes her handicap debut and could be on a lenient opening mark. Queenie St Clair is a solid contender in first-time cheekpieces.

QUEEN MAEDBH confirmed debut promise when making a winning debut for this yard in a maiden at Dundalk in November, beating a subsequent winner in the process, and she looks potentially useful now heading into handicaps. Evening's Empire is on a good mark on the pick of her juvenile form and she should appreciate the drop back in trip, so is another to consider along with Queenie St Clair, who went close at Naas last week.

Though SNOWCAPPED was the stable's second-string when winning at Gowran last time, she has Shane Foley on board today and can win.

1	3 1st (3) (4/1 +67%) Honey Girl		4 4/1(+67%)																															(3) Honey Girl 4/1, Useful filly. First run since leaving Henry De Bromhead when 6/5, didn't need to improve to win 16-runner maiden at this C&D (heavy) 37 days ago, keeping on well. Maiden winner on stable debut, needs to reverse Tipperary Group 3 form with Agartha.
2	1 2nd (1) (8/1 -45%) Agartha		8 8/1(-45%)																															(1) Agartha 8/1, Useful filly. C&D winner. 7½ lengths seventh of 10 to Insinuendo in Park Express Stakes (7/1) at this course (8f, heavy) on reappearance 37 days ago. Needs to leave that behind. Solid Group 3-standard performer, should be better for her seasonal debut here in March.
3	8 3rd (8) (20/1 +39%) Small Oasis		20 20/1(+39%)																															(8) Small Oasis 20/1, Lightly-raced winner. Course winner. 17/2, 14¾ lengths fourteenth of 15 to Mammas Girl in Nell Gwyn Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) on reappearance 12 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. 6f course maiden winner at two and Group 3-placed, two disappointing runs for this stable.
4	7 4th (7) (25/1 +38%) Clever And Cool		25 25/1(+38%)																															(7) Clever And Cool 25/1, Fairly useful filly. Creditable 3½ lengths fourth of 9 to Tenebrism in listed race at Cork (6f, heavy, 8/1) 23 days ago, barely adequate test. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Uphill task. Has shown a tendency to start slowly, cheekpieces for the first time, improvement needed.
5th	4 5th (4) (2.75/1 +27%) Just Beautiful		2.75 2.75/1(+27%)																															(4) Just Beautiful 2.75/1, Smart mare for Ivan Furtado in 2021, including winning 7f Doncaster Group 3. Bit below that level in only 2 outings for new yard last year but major player if back to her best on reappearance. Very useful form for Ivan Furtado, possibly unsuited by soft in two 2022 Irish outings.
6th	6 6th (6) (4/1 +20%) Star Girls Aalmal		4 4/1(+20%)																															(6) Star Girls Aalmal 4/1, Useful filly. Shaped better than the result when 3¼ lengths fourth of 10 to Insinuendo in Park Express Stakes at this course (8f, heavy, 9/1) on reappearance 37 days ago, running on late after being denied a clear run. Fourth in last year's Irish 1,000 Guineas, made a good start to the season here in March.
7th	5 7th (5) (2.5/1 -81%) Queen Aminatu		2.5 2.5/1(-81%)																															(5) Queen Aminatu 2.5/1, Ended last year with 2 AW listed wins. Picked up where she left off when bagging a valuable conditions race at Newcastle on reappearance. All wins on AW but she was second in a listed on turf last autumn. Leading claims. Five-time winner on AW including two Listed races, 0-5 on turf, soft ground a concern.
8th	2 8th (2) (40/1 -60%) Affogato		40 40/1(-60%)																															(2) Affogato 40/1, Useful filly. Two wins from 6 runs last year. 17/2, last of 10 in handicap at Dundalk (7f), finding little. Off 6 months. Limitations evident last year when raised in class after wins at Gowran and Fairyhouse.

LTO Selection:

---

1.38/1 (5) QUEEN AMINATU is the most likely to do well based on the summary as she has a strong record on the all-weather, has picked up where she left off with a recent win and has shown potential on turf with a second-place finish in a listed race.

A wide-open contest but marginal preference is for STAR GIRLS AALMAL, who caught the eye when fourth in the Park Express. Henry de Bromhead's four-year-old got no luck in running and would have finished closer with a clear run. The drop in trip should suit, as she was fourth in the Jersey last season, and she can get the better of the penalised Agartha. Just Beautiful remains unexposed for these connections and cannot be discounted, while Queen Aminatu and Honey Girl are others to note.

William Haggas won this race in 2020 and can repeat the feat with QUEEN AMINATU who has made big progress since last autumn and can take the step up to Group 3 level in her stride. Just Beautiful will be a threat if back close to her best on reappearance. Star Girls Aalmal looks best of the rest.

Last year's Irish 1,000 Guineas fourth STAR GIRLS AALMAL appeals as an alternative to good AW weather performer Queen Aminatu

1	4 1st (4) (12/1 +14%) Visualisation		12 12/1(+14%)																															(4) Visualisation 12/1, Smart gelding. Course winner. Made winning return at Naas in March and stepped up on that form when good 1½ lengths second of 5 to Point Lonsdale in Alleged Stakes over C&D (heavy) 15 days ago. Ought to go well again. Third to Layfayette in this race last year, 7l in front of that rival here two weeks ago.
2	2 2nd (2) (22/1 +33%) Layfayette		22 22/1(+33%)																															(2) Layfayette 22/1, Smart gelding. C&D winner. Three wins from 7 runs last year. 8½ lengths third of 5 to Point Lonsdale in Alleged Stakes at this C&D (heavy, 7/1) 15 days ago, slowly away. Up against it. Last year's winner, faces much stiffer task this time, appears well held by Visualisation.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/1 +36%) Piz Badile		9 9/1(+36%)																															(3) Piz Badile 9/1, Made the breakthrough at pattern level when a narrow winner of the Ballysax at Leopardstown (1¼m, good) on his 2022 reappearance. Group 1 company proved beyond him in his 3 subsequent outings last year but likely to make presence on return here. Irish Derby second, first outing since last July and best watched in the circumstances.
4	6 4th (6) (3.33/1 +63%) Insinuendo		3.33 3.33/1(+63%)																															(6) Insinuendo 3.33/1, Smart mare. Didn't need to be at best when winning 10-runner Park Express Stakes (evens) at this course (8f, heavy) 37 days ago by 1½ lengths from Redressed, kept up to work. Hood back on. Lot more on plate here. Made Luxembourg work hard in the Royal Whip, good winner over 1m here on seasonal debut.
5th	1 5th (1) (0.91/1 -36%) Luxembourg		0.91 0.91/1(-36%)																															(1) Luxembourg 0.91/1, High-class colt who won twice last season, notably Irish Champion Stakes (10f) at Leopardstown. Didn't get the breaks in Arc on final start but very much the one to beat here. Irish Champion Stakes winner, given a stern test by Insinuendo in the Royal Whip.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 -136%) Trevaunance		33 33/1(-136%)																															(7) Trevaunance 33/1, Smart filly. Won 3 of her 5 starts last term and ended campaign with creditable 5 lengths eighth of 16 to Place Du Carrousel in Prix de l'Opera (29/1) at Longchamp (9.9f, soft). Not out of things. Dual Pattern winner over this trip at Deauville last year, should continue to prosper.
7th	5 7th (5) (5.5/1 -38%) Above The Curve		5.5 5.5/1(-38%)																															(5) Above The Curve 5.5/1, Smart filly who progressed through last season, winning 3 times at this sort of trip. Never involved when seventh of 12 in Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf on final start but warrants respect on return here. Smart form at three including neck defeat of Insinuendo in C&D Group 2, could go close.

LTO Selection:

---

The 0.67/1 (1) LUXEMBOURG Irish Champion Stakes winner is likely to be the one to beat in this race.

Aidan O'Brien has saddled seven of the last 10 winners of this race and he appears to have another outstanding chance with LUXEMBOURG. Considering he pulled a muscle in his back and finished lame and sore, his seventh in the Arc was a fine effort. He had done little wrong prior to that and the Irish Champion Stakes hero looks a class apart on his return. Above The Curve gets a handy 6lb off the selection and rates the biggest threat, ahead of a race-fit Visualisation.

LUXEMBOURG looks a level above his opponents here and can make a winning reappearance. Above The Curve and Piz Badile may give him most to think about.

With a winning run under her belt INSINUENDO is put forward as a value-alternative to the Irish Champion Stakes winner Luxembourg

14th	13 14th (13) (28/1 +15%) Amanirenas		28 28/1(+15%)																															(13) Amanirenas 28/1, Sixth of 8 in claimer (25/1) at Dundalk (7f) 31 days ago. Leopardstown handicap winner over this trip last summer but hasn't matched that form since.
15th	14 15th (14) (25/1 -39%) Skontonovski		25 25/1(-39%)																															(14) Skontonovski 25/1, Three wins from 24 runs last year. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 14/1, eleventh of 16 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Visor back on. Given a chance by the handicapper. Regressive on the AW and on turf lately; has to reverse that decline.
16th	16 16th (16) (50/1 +24%) Angel Palanas		50 50/1(+24%)																															(16) Angel Palanas 50/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2020. Below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 33/1) when last seen. Off 117 days. Generally regressive in last year; 5lb out of the handicap.
17th	8 17th (8) (11/1 -22%) Punk Poet		11 11/1(-22%)																															(8) Punk Poet 11/1, 18/1, fifth of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (6f) 20 days ago, never nearer. Has good chance on pick of form. Slipped down the handicap on AW lately; of interest if the ground doesn't turn testing.
18th	12 18th (12) (80/1 -21%) Prince Of Peace		80 80/1(-21%)																															(12) Prince Of Peace 80/1, 100/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.8f, heavy) 25 days ago. Won a Dundalk maiden in 2021; well-held on seasonal bow; others appeal more.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to predict which horse will do well as there are several runners with varying levels of recent form and different strengths and weaknesses. However, some horses that could be considered as potential contenders with decent recent form include 5/1 (15) TALL STORY, 5.5/1 (11) CNODIAN, 6/1 (7) AKMAAM, 9/1 (8) PUNK POET, and 10/1 (1) SECRET MAGICIAN.

CNODIAN was sent off favourite when finishing sixth here on her return to action in March and the manner of that display suggested the return to 7f could see the mare back to winning ways. Secret Magician was knocking on the door in a brace of handicaps here last autumn and is respected following his latest effort at Cork. Akmaam scored at Dundalk when last seen and he is likely to be a threat, along with Tall Story, who was runner-up here last month, and Transcendental.

Any number to consider, with CNODIAN chanced on the back of an encouraging return here 5 weeks ago. Maiden Tall Story and Dundalk-winner Akmaam are a couple of others to consider.

Though still a maiden after 22 starts, TALL STORY ran a fine race over 6f here last time and could get off the mark now.

1	20 1st (20) (8/1 +43%) Run Forrest Run		8 8/1(+43%)																															(20) Run Forrest Run 8/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, respectable 3¼ lengths seventh of 23 to Midnight Fire in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 15 days ago. Started season brightly with third placing over C&D, satisfactory effort here 15 days ago.
2	19 2nd (19) (20/1 +70%) Pretty Boy Floyd		20 20/1(+70%)																															(19) Pretty Boy Floyd 20/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Eleventh of 20 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, heavy, 33/1) 9 days ago. Chance on old form. Has shown his best form at this venue, having fourth run of the season, unwise to rule out.
3	9 3rd (9) (20/1 -43%) Greek Flower		20 20/1(-43%)																															(9) Greek Flower 20/1, Below form sixth of 16 in maiden at Cork (5f, heavy, 16/5) on reuturn 23 days ago, met some trouble. Makes handicap debut. Looked a possible future winner last year, confirmed that impression on seasonal debut.
4	1 4th (1) (22/1 +12%) Coumshingaun		22 22/1(+12%)																															(1) Coumshingaun 22/1, C&D winner. Unseated rider start in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft, 20/1) 12 days ago. Unseated at start last time, C&D winner last season, needs to recapture best form.
5th	25 5th (25) (25/1 +62%) Gallow Hill		25 25/1(+62%)																															(25) Gallow Hill 25/1, Below form eleventh of 18 in handicap (66/1) at Navan (5f, heavy) 33 days ago. Placed only once from 14 outings, needs to show improvement from seasonal debut at Navan.
6th	4 6th (4) (14/1 +13%) Downforce		14 14/1(+13%)																															(4) Downforce 14/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Eleventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D (heavy, 15/2) 15 days ago. Booking of Lee a plus. Veteran has won three times at this venue, not one of his best efforts over C&D on latest.
7th	5 7th (5) (6/1 +14%) Karlsberg		6 6/1(+14%)																															(5) Karlsberg 6/1, Respectable seventh of 16 in handicap at Limerick (8f, soft, 2/1) 9 days ago. Back down in trip. Second to Mogwli over C&D early last season, second over 1m on first of two runs this term.
8th	12 8th (12) (8/1 +33%) Mogwli		8 8/1(+33%)																															(12) Mogwli 8/1, C&D winner. 14/1, below form fourth of 20 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, heavy) 9 days ago. Blinkers back on. Has shown a consistent level of form in three outings this term, unlikely to be far away.
9th	13 9th (13) (28/1 -40%) Breezy Zoff		28 28/1(-40%)																															(13) Breezy Zoff 28/1, Winner here in October. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Dundalk (8f) when last seen. Off 173 days. Back down in trip. Heavy-ground winner over 7f at this venue on penultimate start last year, 12lb higher now.
10th	11 10th (11) (40/1 +39%) Lady Arwen		40 40/1(+39%)																															(11) Lady Arwen 40/1, Sixteenth of 18 in handicap at Navan (10f, heavy, 25/1) 33 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Others more persuasive. Only win gained over 7f, in rear over 1m2f on seasonal debut, others preferred.
11th	7 11th (7) (3.33/1 +33%) Midnight Fire		3.33 3.33/1(+33%)																															(7) Midnight Fire 3.33/1, 3-time C&D winner. Won 23-runner handicap (8/1) at this C&D (heavy) 15 days ago. Hit with an 8 lb rise but could still be up to the task again having won this last year. Carried a big weight to C&D victory on seasonal debut, could go well despite 8lb rise.
12th	15 12th (15) (25/1 -150%) Storm Eric		25 25/1(-150%)																															(15) Storm Eric 25/1, 9/2, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at Dundalk (7f) 17 days ago. This is tougher back on turf. Good form over 7f at Dundalk, has looked modest on turf, first time below 7f now.
13th	3 13th (3) (7/1 +50%) Bells On Her Toes		7 7/1(+50%)																															(3) Bells On Her Toes 7/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft, 9/1) 12 days ago, slowly away. Still just above the mark which applied when she won at Gowran nearly 12 months ago.
14th	22 14th (22) (10/1 +70%) Even Flow		10 10/1(+70%)																															(22) Even Flow 10/1, 2¾ lengths sixth of 23 to Midnight Fire in handicap (150/1) at this C&D (heavy) 15 days ago. Fair form for Willie McCreery, definite signs of revival when long-priced sixth over C&D.
15th	10 15th (10) (18/1 +28%) Dagoda		18 18/1(+28%)																															(10) Dagoda 18/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 9/1, first run since leaving Ms Sheila Lavery when below form fourth of 12 in maiden at Dundalk (8f) 87 days ago. Down in trip. 17-race maiden shaped quite well at Dundalk on her first run for this stable; more needed.
16th	26 16th (26) (100/1 +0%) Wild Eyed Girl		100 100/1(+0%)																															(26) Wild Eyed Girl 100/1, Ninth of 11 in maiden (80/1) at Dundalk (5f) 178 days ago. Very little of note in her form since placed in nurseries, 5lb out of the handicap.
17th	23 17th (23) (20/1 +0%) Patsy Fagan		20 20/1(+0%)																															(23) Patsy Fagan 20/1, Gambled-on 4/1, first run since leaving Kevin Thomas Coleman when sixth of 11 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 17 days ago. Has plunged in the ratings since his time with Richard Fahey, fair Dundalk run on latest.
18th	18 18th (18) (25/1 -317%) Hero Of The Hour		25 25/1(-317%)																															(18) Hero Of The Hour 25/1, Latest win at Dundalk in March. 5/2, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 17 days ago. Has work to do back on turf. Three Dundalk wins over this trip this year, found 5f too sharp on latest, definite chance.
19th	8 19th (8) (28/1 -12%) Princess Rajj		28 28/1(-12%)																															(8) Princess Rajj 28/1, 16/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft) 12 days ago. Enters calculations. Probably needs better ground, down the field on her first two outings this season.
20th	14 20th (14) (50/1 -67%) Geological		50 50/1(-67%)																															(14) Geological 50/1, Below form sixth of 10 in handicap (10/1) at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft) when last seen. Off 7 months. Back down in trip. Becoming well treated. Winner of 17 of his 144 races, starting another campaign now, best watched for the moment.
21st	2 21st (2) (22/1 -83%) Nordic Passage		22 22/1(-83%)																															(2) Nordic Passage 22/1, C&D winner. Nineteen runs since last win in 2020. Off 176 days. Gone well fresh and one to note. Best two runs last season were over C&D, 33-1 on both occasions, not exactly predictable.
22nd	21 22nd (21) (18/1 -29%) Boadicea Belle		18 18/1(-29%)																															(21) Boadicea Belle 18/1, 12/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Dundalk (8f) 20 days ago, conceding first run. Back down in trip. Hood back on. Not taken lightly. Has done most of her racing on AW, place possibility if reproducing recent Dundalk form.
23rd	24 23rd (24) (100/1 -100%) L'immortale		100 100/1(-100%)																															(24) L'immortale 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 18 in maiden at this C&D (heavy) 15 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Unexposed but not an obvious contender on the evidence of his three qualifying runs.
24th	17 24th (17) (150/1 -50%) Burgoo Beauty		150 150/1(-50%)																															(17) Burgoo Beauty 150/1, Last of 14 in handicap at Naas (8f, heavy, 150/1) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Blinkered for 1st time. Has finished last on both Irish starts, blinkered now, impossible to make a case for her.

5/1 (7) MIDNIGHT FIRE and 6/1 (18) HERO OF THE HOUR are both strong contenders based on their recent form and past success at the track. 12/1 (2) NORDIC PASSAGE and 20/1 (6) LITTLE QUEENIE could also be worth considering based on their consistent form at Dundalk. 14/1 (3) BELLS ON HER TOES and 14/1 (20) RUN FORREST RUN may be worth a look as outsiders. 100/1 (17) BURGOO BEAUTY and 100/1 (26) WILD EYED GIRL are unlikely to be competitive.

A wide-open handicap to round off proceedings, in which the vote goes to MIDNIGHT FIRE. The son of Mayson won this from the same mark last year, and he made the perfect return to action when successful over C&D 15 days ago. Hero Of The Hour has improved on the all-weather during the winter and demands the utmost respect with Colin Keane booked, while the veteran Downforce, a winner here last October, must also be considered. Others to note include Greek Flower, Mogwli and Storm Eric.

Last year's winner MIDNIGHT FIRE is taken to repeat the feat after returning with another victory over C&D a fortnight ago. Nordic Passage and Geological are a couple of others to consider on their comebacks.

Having his fourth run of the season MOGWLI is drawn in the centre and is suggested as a solid each-way proposition in a very open race

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.
