On jockey bookings, NEW ZEALAND would appear to be the first string of the Ballydoyle contingent with Ryan Moore on board and he can improve from his introduction when a staying-on seventh over C&D. He should progress, with the form working out already. Action is a half-brother to dual Derby winner Lambourn and it will be interesting to see what the market makes of him. Go Just Do It cost 220,000gns as a yearling and has been given a National Stakes entry. Seoul Force ran well for third behind a subsequent Listed winner on debut, with market support behind him, and can improve from that experience.

Aidan O'Brien is on a four-timer in this race so it may be telling that Ryan Moore prefers NEW ZEALAND of his trio and he gets the vote

BODHI BEAR brings some potential after an excellent seasonal debut when beating subsequent Listed winner Town And Country at Cork. He then wasn't disgraced in Group company behind Babouche, although his subsequent Royal Ascot performance will have to be excused. Under Joey Sheridan, he is helped by the 5lb three-year-old allowance and should go close. Heavenly Power can reverse form with his last-start conqueror Fort Vega, with a 6lb weight swing leaving him with every chance of scoring once more at this venue. Big Gossey and Tango Flare renew rivalries and are lowered in class, with the former fancied to go well once more under a big weight at his beloved Curragh.

Last year's runner-up GREEK FLOWER is 7lb lower now and is put forward as an each-way option despite being 4lb out of the handicap

Possibly a shade fortunate to beat Puerto Rico in a maiden, not certain to uphold the form.

14:35 Curragh (Class 1) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

The only filly in the race, TRUE LOVE, can beat the colts. Although a dominant winner of the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot, it is the form of her previous run which stands out. Runner-up at Navan back in May, that contest received a significant boost when the winner went on to land the Coventry Stakes. Stepping back up in trip here would be a slight concern for the Aidan O'Brien-trained youngster but, in a four-runner field, the pace is unlikely to be too strong. Despite still being a maiden, stablemate Puerto Rico looks the biggest threat. Having met trouble in running here last time, the son of Wootton Bassett can reverse that form with Learntodiscover.

It is 31 years since a filly won this race, but TRUE LOVE stands out on her Queen Mary win and previous second to Gstaad

15:05 Curragh (Class 1) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Not short of pace, Commonwealth Cup runner-up ARIZONA BLAZE can cope with the drop in trip. Although the Adrian Murray-trained colt boasts just the solitary success over the minimum distance, he made most when easily landing a Group 3 at Chantilly over just half a furlong further in April. Always leading his own group when touched off at Royal Ascot, the three-year-old has the speed to be very competitive. The hat-trick seeking Mgheera holds strong claims. Unbeaten in both starts since joining Ed Walker, the mare was withdrawn at the start of the King Charles III Stakes and now has the services of Ryan Moore. Fellow British raider Rumstar also looks to have a decent chance.

POWERFUL NATION was very impressive when winning at Cork last time and he may be able to cope with this step up in class

15:40 Curragh (Class 1) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Epsom Oaks winner MINNIE HAUK can double up for trainer Aidan O'Brien. Given that the front two pulled four lengths clear of the remainder, the absence of neck runner-up Whirl appears to have simplified the task for her stablemate. Despite the presence of four Ballydoyle fillies in the race, the daughter of Frankel is very much the one to beat. Fourth behind Minnie Hauk last month, Wemightakedlongway failed to build on that effort when occupying the same position in the Pretty Polly. Beaten just a half a length by the selection on debut, Subsonic disappointed on her seasonal reappearance at Naas in April. Having had excuses for that, the Johnny Murtagh-trained filly could be the dark horse.

The Oaks winner MINNIE HAUK now comfortably holds pole position over Wemightakedlongway who beat her first time out at two

16:15 Curragh (Class 1) 15f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

In a race where he doesn't have to carry any penalties, dual Group 1 winner AL RIFFA stands out. Runner-up in the Hardwicke Stakes at Royal Ascot last month, the Joseph O'Brien-trained five-year-old can gain his first success of the campaign. Although he is stepping up to this distance for the first time, on breeding the son of Wootton Bassett should have no issues with the extra yardage. A proven stayer, the Dermot Weld-trained Harbour Wind has run well under big weights in handicaps of late and reverting to black-type races should suit. With Ryan Moore in the saddle, Shackleton looks the pick of the three Ballydoyle contenders.

The top-rated and classy AL RIFFA looks well worth a go at this sort of trip on both run style and breeding and he is the one to beat

EXTRAVAGANT appeals now dropping back to 6f. He didn't make an impression inside the final furlong when third over 7f at Fairyhouse. However, on debut over C&D, he kept on for a solid second behind a filly who was subsequently runner-up in a Group 3. Gavoo didn't feature in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot, but earned his crack at that company with a good victory in Listowel. He's a strong contender. Stop The Nation's third in a Group 3 at this track merits respect, while Parkside Lad is going the right way and got off the mark in Bellewstown. Bobby Mcgee is far from out of it, and Donnacha O'Brien's Award Ceremony competes off a lovely light weight.

A chance is taken on the well-bred handicap debutante AWARD CEREMONY whose dam won two Group 3s at this venue

Johnny Murtagh's SHELBIANA signed off last season with a runner-up berth at Dundalk and made a pleasing return to action when third at Leopardstown last week. She is entitled to come on from that first run for nine months and represents an in-form stable. The well-bred Proxima Centauri showed ability last year and wasn't far behind Shelbiana in fourth at Dundalk. There should be more to come from her. Dermot Weld takes the wraps off Mehmas filly Tina's Charm, who is a half-sister to a Listed winner and is well worth a market check. Minaun View has an official rating of 80 and gets a first-time hood, so it is not hard to see her involved.

Nothing stands out here, so it could pay to take a chance with the regally-bred PROXIMA CENTAURI who makes a belated seasonal debut

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.
