GISELLE stands out here given the fact that she was sent off odds-on when beaten by talented stablemate Bedtime Story at Leopardstown in June. The latter went on to win her next three starts in stakes company including a Group 2 and the selection, although possibly vulnerable after an absence, should be hard to beat. Aidan O'Brien also runs a couple of interesting newcomers in the shape of Galileo filly Eternal Spirit and Mariinsky Theatre, who is a sister to a dual Group 3 winner. Edge Of Seventeen was a promising third on debut at Naas, while Kitty Rickets showed improvement when second at Cork.

Aidan O'Brien's Frankel filly GISELLE made a very promising start when runner-up at Leopardstown in June and can return in style here. Stablemates Eternal Spirit and Mariinsky Theatre both make plenty of appeal on paper and can chase home the selection in that order. Edge of Seventeen completes the shortlist.

GISELLE only found the now 112-rated Bedtime Story too good on debut and could be a cut above her rivals

Latest win at La Teste in June. 66/1, 2½ lengths sixth of 11 to My Mate Alfie in Renaissance Stakes at this C&D (good to soft) 6 days ago. Stable in good form. Should go well again. Found this trip too sharp when sixth in C&D Group 3 latest; all wins over 7f/1m; opposable.
2	2 2nd (2) (13/2 -8%) Ano Syra		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(2) Ano Syra 13/2, Useful mare. Course winner. 2¾ lengths seventh of 11 to My Mate Alfie in Renaissance Stakes at this C&D (good to soft, 22/1) 6 days ago. Nineteen runs since last win in 2022.

Creditable 2¾ lengths fourth of 11 to Shandy in Ballyogan Stakes at Naas (5.9f, good to soft, 10/1) 41 days ago. More needed here however.

Excellent head second of 11 to Shandy in Ballyogan Stakes at Naas (5.9f, good to soft, 15/8) 41 days ago. Stable in good form.

Twenty fourth of 25 in handicap at this C&D (good, 40/1) 20 days ago. Sort to bounce back. Beat Firebird in Naas Group 3 in August; poor in Curragh handicap since; will need rain.
7th	5 7th (5) (20/1 +20%) Ostraka		20 20/1(+20%)																															(5) Ostraka 20/1, Fairly useful filly. C&D winner. Latest win at Navan in September. Respectable sixth of 15 in handicap (11/1) at this course (5f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Not discounted. Wouldn't want much rain but she might be out of her depth in this company in any case.

Won 7f premier handicap at Leopardstown last month; 2nd in Cork Listed in August; chance.
9th	4 9th (4) (20/1 -186%) Little Queenie		20 20/1(-186%)																															(4) Little Queenie 20/1, Useful mare. Course winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. 5/1, below form 4½ lengths fourth of 10 to She's Quality in listed race at Tipperary (5f, good) 34 days ago. Still enters calculations. Didn't fare badly on first try in Listed grade but was behind Ano Syra on that occasion.

LITTLE QUEENIE has steadily gone up through the ranks in handicaps and ran well when fourth in stakes company over 5f at Tipperary latest. Paul Flynn's likeable grey is equally as effective over this trip and has a good record at this venue. Firebird was narrowly defeated by Shandy in a Group 3 contest at Naas but the latter, who has finished down the field in a handicap here since, was aided by racing on the quicker part of the track and might struggle to uphold that form. Dance Night Andday has had a fine season and landed a valuable handicap over 7f at Leopardstown last time.

FIREBIRD arrives on the up and looks the way to go on the back of her excellent Naas second last time out. Recent Leopardstown scorer Dance Night Andday rates a big threat though, with Oujda and Little Queenie also in the picture.

FIREBIRD (nap) was an expensive purchase and she is 5lb better off with Shandy for a head beating when the pair met at Naas

Off 140 days. Makes handicap debut. Solid effort when fourth over 5f at Bellewstown on handicap debut on Thursday; more needed.
2	9 2nd (9) (16/1 -78%) Saturn Seven		16 16/1(-78%)																															(9) Saturn Seven 16/1, Course winner last autumn but needs to shrug off disappointing efforts on her last 2 outings. Out of sorts since returning from a break in August, finishing last at Dundalk latest.

Below form fifth of 12 in handicap (10/3) at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 2 days ago. Looks competitive on pick of form. Disappointed over 5f at Bellewstown on Thursday; would appreciate some rain.

THE BEAR TRAP is still seeking a first victory but has gone close several times, including over course and distance in May. John Geoghegan's three-year-old was coming back from a break when not beaten far at Fairyhouse recently and gets the vote. Mile End turns out quickly under a penalty after bolting up over a mile at Bellewstown on Wednesday. She won here over this trip as a two-year-old and any rain that arrives will help her cause. Never Shout Never has been running consistently of late.

SURPASS AND SHINE has been knocking on the door under Billy Lee in recent starts and can gain a deserved success. Last year's winner Sunday Sovereign looks set to make a bold bid in this race again after finishing a good second at Naas last time. 3-y-os Fivecromwellplace and Green Valentine complete the shortlist.

Many with chances but the vote goes to FIVECROMWELLPLACE, who has rock-solid form in C&D handicaps and went very close at Fairyhouse

WHIMSY has strong claims after gaining a deserved win last time. That came over 1m6f at Carlisle and followed a fine second over this trip at York when Aine O'Connor was on board. Zoffanien comes here in good form but has been running over longer trips and may have to settle for minor honours again. Polemon was a winner over this distance at Tipperary last month and has posted a couple of solid efforts since, while Sylkie is also noted.

WHIMSY went close at York under Aine O'Connor prior to scoring at Carlisle and still looks nicely handicapped back from a break. Zoffanien, the mount of Jody Townend, heads the dangers along with last month's Galway winner Sylkie and Denis Hogan's Polemon.

Aine O'Connor got a good tune out of the consistent WHIMSY at York back in June and you would imagine this race has been a target since

Last of 8 in handicap (12/1) at this course (6f, good to firm) 49 days ago. Cheekpieces back on eased slightly in class.

7th	6 7th (6) (4/1 -14%) Harry's Hill		4 4/1(-14%)																															(6) Harry's Hill 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Bellewstown in August. Bit below form third of 6 in handicap (11/8) at Down Royal (5f, soft) 5 days ago. This mark should be within range. Speedy type broke well when ahead of three of these over C&D; missed kick at Down Royal.

9th	7 9th (7) (33/1 -175%) Verhoyen		33 33/1(-175%)																															(7) Verhoyen 33/1, Six-time course winner. 20/1, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 7 days ago, going off too hard so that run can be overlooked. Back down in trip with cheekpieces back on. Yard stalwart well held twice last month after 7f win in July; 5f trip looks too sharp.
10th	4 10th (4) (2/1 +27%) Greek Flower		2 2/1(+27%)																															(4) Greek Flower 2/1, Course winner. 4/1, shaped well when third of 15 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 7 days ago, slowly away and finished well. Shortlist material. Won twice last October and may be poised to strike now after another fine run over C&D.

Having met over C&D last weekend, there is little to choose between Harry's Hill, Emerald Harmony, GREEK FLOWER and Apache Outlaw. The selection won twice last year, including once at this venue, and has been runner-up in a couple of valuable Curragh handicaps this term. Dontspoilasale (second) and Harry's Hill (third) filled the minor places over 5f at Down Royal on Monday, while Grand City Hall has won twice over 6f at Cork this year.

GREEK FLYER has been shaping up very well despite failing to add to her tally in 2024, really strong at the finish over C&D a week ago so she might be the answer. Grand City Hall and Harry's Hill look to be the chief threats.

A first win of the season wouldn't be coming out of turn for GREEK FLOWER who has been running fine races and is good in the autumn

WRIST ART won twice around this time last year including on soft ground over a mile at Thurles and is down to a competitive mark. The Tim Doyle-trained gelding got no luck in running at Listowel last time and may reverse places with the runner-up Clarita. Nahori and Lady Arwen have similar profiles to the selection having also dropped in the ratings and come here off the back of promising runs. Hurricane Helen is another for the shortlist following her recent third at Dundalk.

HURRICANE HELEN ran up to her best at a trip that stretched her when third at Dundalk 2 weeks ago, which suggests she may still have a bigger performance in her. Lady Arwen and Clarita head the dangers.

Darragh O'Sullivan has been impressing and his presence in the saddle is a plus for ANVIKA who ran well over this trip at Navan

POSITIVE ENERGY showed promise in maidens and has been placed twice since switched to handicap company including when not enjoying the clearest of passages over a similar distance at Galway last time. The Willie McCreery-trained gelding should still have scope for further improvement and gets the vote over Kinda Tiny, who won at Galway last year and again struck form in the autumn over this trip at Gowran last month. Alessia Fernanda's 7lb penalty for winning at Cork is cancelled out by Keithen Kennedy's claim, while others to consider include Selective Power, Magic Charm, Kiki Roberts and Redemptive Power.

REDEMPTIVE POWER took a step forward when runner-up at Dundalk and this lightly-raced 3-y-o could be the answer. Si Senior and Positive Energy both caught the eye last time and they head the dangers.

A nice easy finale. KIKI ROBERTS drops in grade after being narrowly beaten by a progressive sort at Navan and the pin lands on her

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.
