Joseph O'Brien's EMERALD ECLIPSE was backed down to favouritism for his debut over C&D in January and did little wrong in finishing well for second, beaten half a length. There should be improvement forthcoming and his stable has been firing in the winners at Dundalk. His stablemate Tranquil Steps certainly catches the eye on paper ahead of her debut. She is a half-sister to a Group 1-winning sprinter so must be checked for market strength. As the sole winner in the field, Take Me To Church has to give 6lb to all of his rivals. He sets a useful standard with a mark of 82 having won an auction maiden over a furlong shorter at this track. Willie Browne and Seamie Heffernan have a good record when teaming up together, so debutant Sir Sagacious shouldn't be disregarded. Sobriety Blue was a couple of places behind Emerald Eclipse over C&D and isn't out of it.

TAKE ME TO CHURCH didn't have to improve to beat a subsequent winner here in November and is the form pick under a penalty. Emerald Eclipse made a promising start when runner-up in a C&D maiden 2 weeks ago and is an obvious threat, while his stablemate Tranquil Steps is a newcomer to note.

Just denied in a C&D maiden on debut two weeks ago when well-backed, EMERALD ECLIPSE(nap) can go one better now.

There could be another victory in HURRICANE HELEN. She made a great start to life with Christopher Timmons over C&D in December and a 6lb rise shouldn't stop her if she is in the same mood. Eyes were drawn to her a long way out when she won in December. Eighty Eight was gambled on at this track last week (10/1 in to 4/1), but just found one rival half a length too good. The horse that beat him went in again two days later to strengthen the form. He has a shot at defying his big weight as he travelled notably well last week. Ten To Ten showed significant improvement to finish third over C&D before Christmas when only collared in the closing stages. He has a tougher draw this time, but another good run is likely. Prince Of Abington and Cousin Shay are recent winners who could get into contention.

Though he's not one to set your watch by, LEABALAND failed by a whisker over C&D on his latest start in December and he is appealing on the back of that solid effort. Last-time-out winners Prince of Abington and Cousin Shay may emerge as the main dangers.

This can go the way of C&D winner LEABALAND, who was only narrowly denied by a well treated sort last time and that form has worked out

This is competitive for the grade. James Ryan is an apprentice going places and his booking for HALE BOPP looks significant. This six-year-old gelding has put in late work for fourth and second in his last couple of appearances over C&D. Not much more would be needed to grab his sixth career success. Nibras Rainbow has been beaten the same distance (half a length) into second in his two most recent starts over C&D, so he is a major player. Zero Fighter ran a stormer at 40/1 when beaten by a head into second last month. He has to back it up now, but he had winning form for his previous trainer. Rock Basher ran well for a long way off the front before finishing second last month. Oisin McSweeney gets the leg-up again and he has been among the winners in Dundalk recently.

TRISHULI RIVER hasn't done much wrong since switched to the all-weather and her latest effort over this C&D a fortnight ago was eye-catching. She was behind Rock Basher that day but may well reverse those placings, provided she doesn't get caught so far back this time. Rock Basher should give another account, while Nibras Rainbow is also accorded respect.

It may be worth taking a flyer on KUDBEGOOD who has dropped down to a career-low mark and his last 2 runs have been okay

Chavajod had HIGHTIMEYOUWON and Ransom close behind in the places when recording a second C&D win this winter and the handicapper hasn't been too severe with a combined rise of 10lb for those victories. Hightimeyouwon won three times for Ado McGuinness last year and having been a model of consistency here this winter, is narrowly preferred. Barbapapa recorded a second C&D win on his penultimate start and had six of these rivals behind when subsequently beating all bar Cheers Again just before Christmas. Free Solo had the selection's stablemate Exquisite Acclaim less than a length back in third when scoring over seven here last month but may not be as effective over the mile.

HIGHTIMEYOUWON finished well when runner-up to Chavajod over C&D 3 weeks ago and he's worth a chance to turn the form around despite a tricky draw in 14. Excquisite Acclaim and Free Solo, who also dominated the finish here last time, are also worthy of consideration.

This can go the way of RANSOM who has become very well treated on his form here from last winter and showed signs of a revival latest

DREAMS FLED AWAY beat Areana by three lengths over C&D last month with Glyde Ranger keeping on well into third. The Shane Crawley-trained gelding has gone up 7lb for that success but appeared to win with a bit in hand and can follow up with champion jockey Colin Keane a significant booking. John McConnell's team are back in much better form exemplified by the improved run of Arctic Blaze here last month when fourth behind Moondharrig (won again since), while Tom The Plasterer, Hi Sur Multi and Wishes And Dreams are others to consider. The latter wasn't beaten far last time when third to Golden Sandbanks and the addition of cheekpieces and Shane Foley in the saddle could eke out more improvement.

DREAMS FLED overcame some trouble in running to score comfortably over C&D last time and, while the handicapper has had his say, he's fancied to uphold the form with Areana, who is having her second start for her current yard. Tom The Plasterer is also of interest.

Last time out winner, DREAMS FLED AWAY, may be capable of going back-to-back after a 3l success here last time

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.
