1	2 1st (2) (15/2 +6%) Tell Us This		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(2) Tell Us This 15/2, Promising sort. Below form eleventh of 25 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Naas (16f, soft) 32 days ago. Should improve. Faded tamely back at 2m on handicap debut at Naas; hard to judge his best trip.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/2 -64%) Benjis Benefit		4.5 9/2(-64%)																															(1) Benjis Benefit 9/2, Good second of 15 in handicap hurdle (6/4) at Downpatrick (18.8f, good) 10 days ago, not ideally placed. First run for yard after leaving Emmet Mullins. Expected to be bang there. Finished well when second at Downpatrick (2m3f) and now starts off for new connections.

Makes handicap hurdle debut. Soundly beaten in three completions in maidens; makes no appeal on handicap debut.
4	15 4th (15) (12/1 +82%) Divilabother		12 12/1(+82%)																															(15) Divilabother 12/1, Twelfth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Naas (15.5f, heavy, 40/1) 57 days ago. Booking of Millar a plus. Well held all four starts including 30l defeat on handicap debut at Naas.
5th	7 5th (7) (10/1 -25%) Breagagh		10 10/1(-25%)																															(7) Breagagh 10/1, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs. 9/2, third of 16 in handicap hurdle at this course (17.2f, heavy) 104 days ago. Usually kept busy but last seen when third of 16 over C&D in January; place claims again.
6th	20 6th (20) (17/2 -31%) Chancer Dancer		8.5 17/2(-31%)																															(20) Chancer Dancer 17/2, 4/1, respectable third of 11 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, soft). Off 7 months. Not taken lightly. Fourth in this last year and some creditable efforts since but been off since September.

Bit below form sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, soft, 33/1) 64 days ago. Handicaps more suitable.

13th	19 13th (19) (20/1 +39%) Ballerina Boxer		20 20/1(+39%)																															(19) Ballerina Boxer 20/1, Hood/tongue strap on for first time, brought down in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Naas (19.3f, soft) 20 days ago. Mid-division finish on second handicap start at Naas wasn't too bad; hooded.
14th	3 14th (3) (14/1 -75%) Up And Out		14 14/1(-75%)																															(3) Up And Out 14/1, Remains a maiden after 17 NH runs. 14/1, respectable third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (16.7f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Got a bit tired after seven months off when third at Tramore and should strip fitter here.
15th	8 15th (8) (50/1 -213%) Natural Ability		50 50/1(-213%)																															(8) Natural Ability 50/1, 80/1, eighth of 13 in handicap chase at Limerick (17.7f, heavy) 132 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Noted connections but modest form over hurdles and fences and been off since Christmas.

Booking of Harney a plus. Modest form including when hooded for recent handicap debut (2m4f); better for that run.

Switches from Flat to hurdles. Open to improvement in this sphere. Decent on the Flat (rated 70) but not shown much hurdling and looks yard second-string.
12	12 |RR| (12) (33/1 -65%) Eikonix		33 33/1(-65%)																															(12) Eikonix 33/1, Unreliable type. Thirteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Hurdles form has been poor but could fare better on this ground with blinkers fitted.

Benjis Benefit once more failed to justify favouritism when runner-up at Downpatrick recently, although a similar performance on his stable bow for Denis Hogan is likely to see him in the mix once more. However, it could be worth taking a chance on UP AND OUT building on her third-placed reappearance at Tramore last month. That marked a return to form for Gordon Elliott's mare and Jake Coen's 5lb claim could prove vital. Forever Frankie and Breagagh also warrant a closer look.

BENJIS BENEFIT was a rare one who failed to deliver when the money was down twice for Emmet Mullins but he's joined another shrewd yard and is worth another chance. Forever Frankie produced a big career best at Tramore a fortnight ago and is a threat, along with Breagagh.

Dropping back in trip may not be ideal for BENJIS BENEFIT but 2m1f around here should be enough of a test and he's well up to winning

6	6 (6) (9/1 +0%) Rocky's Diamond		9 9/1(+0%)																															(6) Rocky's Diamond 9/1, Totally different proposition on second start when winning 16-runner juvenile hurdle at Limerick (16.9f, heavy, 22/1) 17 days ago, pushed out. Significantly up in trip. May well do better. Unexposed Limerick winner, though his pursuers did grant him an easy lead.
1	1 1st (1) (8/11 +68%) Born Braver		0.727273 8/11(+68%)																															(1) Born Braver 8/11, One win from 3 runs last season. 11/4, won 18-runner novice hurdle at Naas (19.3f, soft) 20 days ago, driven out. Up in trip. Progressing recently. 2m3f maiden winner last time and has the potential to improve again over this far.
2	2 2nd (2) (5/2 +44%) Gold In The Rivers		2.5 5/2(+44%)																															(2) Gold In The Rivers 5/2, 13/8, career best when winning 9-runner novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, heavy) 43 days ago, forging clear. Up in trip. Booking of Millar a plus. Likely to improve, but he needs to on these terms. Didn't beat a lot at Limerick but he's a good looker with plenty more to offer.
3	4 3rd (4) (6/1 +8%) Gold Cup Bailly		6 6/1(+8%)																															(4) Gold Cup Bailly 6/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Ayr (31.8f, good to soft, 66/1) 16 days ago, struggling after. Switches from chase to hurdles. Down in trip. Pulled up in the Scottish National on his return from an absence; comes with risks.
4	7 4th (7) (11/1 +45%) Joya Del Mar		11 11/1(+45%)																															(7) Joya Del Mar 11/1, Eighth of 13 in novice hurdle (13/2) at Clonmel (18.9f, heavy) 81 days ago. Up in trip and though task, even if bouncing back. Second in a maiden here at Christmas; looks a bit outclassed on these terms.

LOOK TO THE WEST struggled at Grade 1 level on her most recent outing at Fairyhouse in March but her previous third in a Grade 3 contest suggests that she could be hard to beat here. Gold In The Rivers had plenty in hand when getting off the mark at Limerick last time and could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Born Braver and Rocky's Diamond.

LOOK TO THE WEST fared about as well as could be expected in Graded company after making a winning Rules debut and back down in class, she'll take some stopping. Born Braver is the obvious threat on form, though Gold In The Rivers and Rocky's Diamond are open to progress.

It's hard to get away from LOOK TO THE WEST who takes a huge drop in class after chasing home Jade De Grugy in her last two races.

1	9 1st (9) (9/4 -13%) Magic Tricks		2.25 9/4(-13%)																															(9) Magic Tricks 9/4, Useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle here in November. Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (20.2f, heavy, 66/1) 52 days ago. Makes chase debut and he'll be very tough to beat if back on his game. By far the best of these over hurdles, winning valuable handicap here in November.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 +57%) Jimmy Chou Pecos Aa		6 6/1(+57%)																															(7) Jimmy Chou Pecos Aa 6/1, Fair chaser. Fourth of 7 in novice chase (14/1) at Punchestown (22.8f, heavy) 78 days ago. First run for yard after leaving John McConnell. Not shamed in good company in first two runs over fences despite hanging left; yard debut.
3	4 3rd (4) (28/1 +15%) Clifftop		28 28/1(+15%)																															(4) Clifftop 28/1, Fair hurdler. 9/1, creditable fifth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20f, good to soft). Off 6 months. Makes chase debut. Flat winner but maiden over hurdles (rated 105); best watched on chase debut.

7th	10 7th (10) (9/2 -80%) Ottoman Style		4.5 9/2(-80%)																															(10) Ottoman Style 9/2, Promising sort. Useful winner at 22f over hurdles. Fourth of 10 in novice chase (25/1) at Fairyhouse (16.5f, heavy) on debut over fences 164 days ago. Expected to be bang there with step up in trip very much in his favour. Fourth in good race at Fairyhouse on chase debut and stepping back up in trip will help.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 +0%) An Peann Dearg		16 16/1(+0%)																															(1) An Peann Dearg 16/1, Fifth of 18 in novice hurdle (5/2) at Thurles (15.9f, heavy) 51 days ago (fourth past the post but subsequently demoted). Makes chase debut. Up in trip. Hooded for 1st time. Just fair form over hurdles including remote third in maiden here; keen sort now hooded.

MAGIC TRICKS may have pulled up in the Martin Pipe at the Cheltenham Festival but the fact he contested that race suggests a big chasing debut could be on the cards in this company, as does his Listed hurdle victory at this venue in November. Gordon Elliott's gelding looks the one to beat, although Jimmy Chou Pecos Aa's experience over fences could count for a lot and he must be respected. Fathom Two is no forlorn hope on his chasing debut for Gavin Cromwell.

MAGIC TRICKS was never a factor in the Martin Pipe at Cheltenham when last seen in March but he's a classy recruit to chasing and given the yard he represents, is sure to be well prepared for this. This step back up in trip is sure to suit Ottoman Style and he is the obvious threat.

A course winner over hurdles, OTTOMAN STYLE ran well against useful opposition on chase debut and stepping back up in trip will suit

Switches from hurdles to chase. Others make more appeal. Getting long in the tooth now; well beaten the last twice over hurdles and fences.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/2 -17%) Sweet Will		3.5 7/2(-17%)																															(6) Sweet Will 7/2, Creditable third of 9 in handicap chase (5/1) at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft) 15 days ago.

3	2 3rd (2) (17/2 -70%) Dorking Cock		8.5 17/2(-70%)																															(2) Dorking Cock 17/2, Course winner. One win from 3 runs last season. Fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Ayr (24.1f, heavy, 3/1) 125 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not dismissed. Latest win was over hurdles but his final fourth at Ayr was respectable.

5th	4 5th (4) (3/1 +63%) Shantou Show		3 3/1(+63%)																															(4) Shantou Show 3/1, Lightly-raced winner in chases. Below form sixth of 10 in hunter chase at this course (24f, soft, 10/1) 132 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Noel C. Kelly. Switched to handicaps off a potentially lenient mark. Lightly raced; dual point winner and beaten under 4l by Billaway at Downpatrick last May.
6th	7 6th (7) (11/2 +31%) Temptationinmilan		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(7) Temptationinmilan 11/2, 11/2, ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (22.9f, heavy) 51 days ago.

Back up in trip. Others preferred. Easy to make a form case back on goodish ground; penultimate run encouraging.

Several have good chances based on peak performances, however, SWEET WILL is still relatively unexposed over fences and earns the vote based on his potential to find more now he is back beyond 3m, with ground conditions looking ideal. Favori Logique is dangerous to underestimate from the foot of the handicap, while Dorking Cock, Goodnightngodbless and Temptationinmilan all have solid each-way claims. Galon De Vauzellel (third in this last year) and Read To Return would add even more spice to the race if turned out again following their outings at Punchestown on Saturday.

SWEET WILL is very well handicapped on old form and put in one of his better efforts when third at Tramore last time, so he's fancied to land this weak event upped in distance. Dorking Cock at least arrives on the back of a solid showing, so he's a danger, while Shantou Show isn't one to rule out.

Getting back on goodish ground looks a big plus for FAVORI LOGIQUE and his penultimate effort over 3m4f was highly encouraging.

1	3 1st (3) (9/2 -157%) Ballyphilip		4.5 9/2(-157%)																															(3) Ballyphilip 9/2, Showed little in a novice hurdle at Perth 9 months ago but has won all 4 points in 2024 (latest Apr 20) and makes most appeal as he bids to extend that streak on hunter debut. Only a 6yo and has got it together to win his last four points, easily each time.
2	6 2nd (6) (12/1 +0%) Drumnasoo		12 12/1(+0%)																															(6) Drumnasoo 12/1, Flemensfirth gelding. Dam, placed in point, half-sister to bumper winner/high-class hurdler (2m winner) Go Native and fairly useful hurdler (17f winner) Killer Kane. Maiden pointer, third last time (Apr 20). Improved form in his latest point and this 5yo has time on his side.
3	4 3rd (4) (14/1 -75%) Bold Fury		14 14/1(-75%)																															(4) Bold Fury 14/1, €20,000 3-y-o, Califet gelding. Dam, maiden on Flat abroad, half-sister to smart hurdler/useful chaser (2m winner) Zamdy Man. Wears tongue strap. Successful on last of 6 starts in points (Mar 9). Not ruled out. Front-runner; held by Ballyphilip but could improve for the fitting of new headgear.
4	12 4th (12) (15/2 -36%) Big Girl Betty		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(12) Big Girl Betty 15/2, Once-raced maiden. 16/1, second of 13 in hunter chase at Downpatrick (23.5f, good to soft) on NH debut, going with enthusiasm 11 months ago. Off mark in points at third attempt (Jan 27). One to consider. Very lightly raced but probably needs her best form yet to win this.
5th	11 5th (11) (11/1 -57%) Victor Tango		11 11/1(-57%)																															(11) Victor Tango 11/1, Ocovango gelding. Dam (c127/h129) 2¼m-2¾m hurdle/chase winner. Winning pointer, every chance when fell last time (Apr 27). Unlucky last time but does have 15l to find with Ballyphilip on their clash the run before.
6th	7 6th (7) (6/4 +75%) Focus Point		1.5 6/4(+75%)																															(7) Focus Point 6/4, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Pulled up in hunter chase (125/1) at Aintree (21.1f, soft) 25 days ago. Good effort here the time before and expected to bounce back returning to calmer waters. Has added further point wins to his CV since finishing runner-up in this 12 months ago.
7th	5 7th (5) (150/1 -200%) Cousin Zeleznik		150 150/1(-200%)																															(5) Cousin Zeleznik 150/1, Maiden pointer, pulled up last time (Apr 7). Hard to fancy. Now a 10yo and this is a belated first run over regulation fences; minor point form.
8th	10 8th (10) (12/1 +14%) Ohzark		12 12/1(+14%)																															(10) Ohzark 12/1, £40,000 3-y-o, Schiaparelli gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful chase winner (stayed 3½m) Up The Beat. Winning pointer, pulled up last time (Feb 18). Won a point by 30l two years ago but pulled up on his only subsequent sighting.
9th	8 9th (8) (28/1 -133%) Hardy Buck		28 28/1(-133%)																															(8) Hardy Buck 28/1, Modest chaser. Fourth of 10 in hunter chase at Tramore (21.8f, good, 100/1) 14 days ago. His latest fourth at Tramore is something to build on and he's still young.
1	1 |U| (1) (33/1 +0%) Ballinrea		33 33/1(+0%)																															(1) Ballinrea 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 10 in hunter chase at Tramore (21.8f, good, 11/2) 14 days ago. Performed below expectations in two hunter chases; point winner who may do better.
9	9 |PU| (9) (7/1 +7%) John The Spark		7 7/1(+7%)																															(9) John The Spark 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 16 in novice chase at Punchestown (24.4f, good to soft, 9/1) 6 days ago. Consistent pointer, winning three times, and beaten by a good horse in the latest.
2	2 |PU| (2) (50/1 -100%) Ballymoney		50 50/1(-100%)																															(2) Ballymoney 50/1, Some promise in a bumper a long time ago but he's a maiden pointer who was below form last time. Others preferred. Placed in just one of his ten points and he's not the obvious answer on hunter chase debut.

BALLYPHILIP has been in outstanding form between the flags in recent months and the son of Presenting merits the utmost respect in a race of this nature. Focus Point was out of his depth in the Aintree Foxhunters' but his previous point-to-point form gives him a solid chance here. Victor Tango and Bold Fury have both chased the selection home in recent months and are others to note, while Big Girl Betty and Drumnasoo complete the shortlist.

BALLYPHILLIP is 4 from 4 between the flags this year and seems the obvious way to go. Focus Point should be back on his game, so he's feared along with Big Girl Betty.

There are some improvers lurking and BALLYPHILIP hasn't been overly pressed to win his last four points.

With virtually no form to go on, the betting market could prove the best guide here but a bold bid is expected from BOWENSONFIRE. Representing the powerful Gordon Elliott stable, he cost 88,000 euros as a three-year-old and he is a half-brother to a bumper winner. Others to seriously consider are Inoue, who cost 28,000 euros and is a half-brother to three French winners, and the Gavin Comwell-trained Tonaghneave Well, who is a half-brother to six winners. 35,000-euros purchase Kanpai is also respected.

BOWENSONFIRE represents a top yard and is related to a bumper winner, so he looks the way to go without the market to guide. Tonaghneave and Inoue also make plenty of appeal on paper.

A guessing game but POLEPATRICK represents respected connections and his half-brother won a bumper on debut a year ago

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.
