AIRD was heavily backed over C&D last month, but was outgunned in second which was still a fair effort behind a promising horse. Robyn Donaghue-Leahy's 4lb claim is a bonus in this apprentice maiden and those losses may be recouped now. Free Flow banked four runner-up finishes on turf for James Barrett and has moved to Ross O'Sullivan, so he should be in contention. Gavin Cromwell's Babich has to be respected. He has been hurdling in November and December, however, his last run on the Flat saw him take the runner-up spot over an extended 10-furlongs in Roscommon. Autumn Twist is well worth a market check as he had some decent form in France quite some time ago.

BABICH wasn't disgraced over hurdles at Leopardstown during the Christmas period and he is appealing back on the level, having finished a good second at Roscommon on his latest start on the level during the autumn. He may have most to fear from Aird, who found just one too good over C&D last month, but Autumn Twist is also worthy of consideration.

Runner-up over C&D last time when the winner got first run on her, AIRD(nap) can go one better today.

A very competitive handicap. TRIBAL MOON wasn't outclassed in a much-higher grade before Christmas and ought to be a factor in this company. Morning Approach was a wide-margin winner over C&D last month and has prospects despite the 9lb rise. That form got a boost when the runner-up obliged on his next start. Trishuli River has been in a rich vein of form over further in Dundalk but has winning form over 1m, so has to enter calculations. Nedita got 8lb for winning over C&D in December, but that is almost offset by the booking of 7lb claimer Darragh O'Sullivan, so he is entitled to be in the mix. Rockbury Lad and Man Is King are others with claims.

A belated and much-deserved first taste of success could be in the offing for MAN IS KING, who put in another very good shift from the front when going down narrowly over C&D last month. Morning Approach scored in good style here last time and while she isn't an obvious type to follow up, the 7-y-o will be a threat off this 9 lb higher mark if in a similar mood. Nedita, also successful in a C&D handicap on the same card in December, is third choice ahead of Trishuli River.

The form of her easy C&D win last time was franked since, so MORNING APPROACH is taken to score again even off 9lb higher.

ESQUE ELEGANCE showed marked improvement when keeping on over 7f at this track last month. The form was franked when the runner-up came out and won decisively last Friday. Esque Elegance actually races off 6lb lower with her jockey's claim factored in, so she gets the vote. The obvious danger is Movin And Groovin who reappears under the mandatory 7lb penalty after winning by half a length over 6f last week for Ado McGuinness. Nicola Burns keeps the ride and she is proving good value for her 7lb claim. McGuinness also saddles Endless Dawn who was fourth behind Movin And Groovin on her stable debut. She could bank a cheque as could top-weight Lost President.

This step up to a mile could be just the ticket for LOST PRESIDENT, who shaped better than the bare result on his handicap debut here in November and he has been eased 2 lb since. Senior Montecristo will be a threat if responding well to the first-time visor, while Tam Lin should also make her presence felt and Esque Elegance could have a part to play if building on her latest effort.

Nearest at the finish over 7f at this track last time, ESQUE ELEGANCE could get off the mark up to this trip.

Adam Browne-Souza has prospects of riding his first winner aboard SENADO SQUARE. His 10lb claim has the five-year-old gelding on an appealing mark. Furthermore, Senado Square arrives in good form and was successful over C&D on his penultimate start. Devil's Angel has a tough draw to overcome, but he is more than capable of making late headway. Fly to Glory supplemented two all-weather victories in Britain when delivering over 7f at this venue last month, while My Girl Sioux and Hasiyna will have their supporters. First-reserve Clonmacash is dropping down the weights and would have a chance if getting a run.

In a wide open race a chance is taken on veteran NO SPEED LIMIT. He took a step back in the right direction from his reduced mark when midfield in a C&D handicap back in September and the refitting of a visor can put an extra edge on him operating from his last winning mark. In-form pair Senado Square and Fly To Glory are others in the mix, as is last year's winner Havana Notion.

Well-drawn for a horse who races prominently, SENADO SQUARE could make up for his narrow loss over 7f before Christmas.

BRIGADIER KAKURU showed pace in maidens before justifying favouritism on his handicap debut over C&D last month. That form received a couple of timely boosts when the placed horses, Movin And Groovin and Powerful Lady, both won here last Friday. Tommy McJohn probably holds the strongest piece of form having won a 5f Naas handicap off a mark of 77 for Michael O'Callaghan but has disappointed since, including twice here last month for current connections. Just Jump showed improved form when going close over C&D just before Christmas, while Suerte can go well if building on her debut in a maiden here last month.

BRIGADIER KAKURU continued his theme of race-by-race progress when opening his account in a C&D nursery 5 weeks ago and with the definite possibility of more to come, he makes plenty of appeal in his follow-up bid. Just Jump rates next best, ahead of top-weight Tommy McJohn.

Recent nursery winner BRIGADIER KAKURU can further enhance his yard's fine record at the venue

The first three home in the mile handicap won by Storm Eric here last Friday renew rivalry and BEAUTY BELLA now gets the vote to come out on top. Ado McGuinness' charge was beaten three lengths in third but was keeping on well at the finish and is probably better suited by this distance. Storm Eric's previous two wins were gained over 7f, although he also has placed form over this trip, and Rory Mulligan now claims 7lb to help alleviate a penalty for that recent victory. Runner-up Roderick again looks sure to be in the mix, while Reclaim had L'immortale behind when third to Cousin Shay over a mile here last Friday. Barretstown gained a fourth career win when scoring over C&D on his penultimate start.

RODERICK was runner-up to Storm Eric 4 days ago with Beauty Bella back in third. With that trio likely to be heavily involved again, the first-named gets the marginal vote from a mark that looks lenient based on old form.

Upped in trip BEAUTY BELLA is taken to reverse last Friday's form with Storm Eric and Roderick

COUSIN SHAY has progressed well since joining Natalia Lupini last autumn and gained the second of two wins here over a mile when making all for a decisive victory last Friday. The selection has never raced beyond a mile but, despite a 7lb penalty, this looks a good opportunity to test the water over further. Deed Pole has dropped to an attractive mark here this winter and had Tastyee behind when only beaten about a length over 1m4f last time. Miss Glenville indicated some ability when switched to this surface on the latest of three maiden starts and any market move should be noted.

COUSIN SHAY made it two from his last three with a ready success here 4 days ago and, despite the 7-lb penalty, he can follow up in a race that lacks depth. Deed Pole looks the main danger and Rumbled Again should give a good account.

Clearly in rude health, Friday's winner COUSIN SHAY now steps up in trip and looks the one to beat if staying

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.

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.
