3	7 3rd (7) (6/1 +25%) Punk Poet		6 6/1(+25%)																															(7) Punk Poet 6/1, 5-time course winner. Raced on unfavoured side when ninth of 16 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft, 40/1) 13 days ago. Expected to be bang there under Keane. Gave a good account at Laytown and went too hard back on turf since; 4-time course winner.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 -71%) Goal Exceeded		12 12/1(-71%)																															(3) Goal Exceeded 12/1, Fourth of 6 in minor event at the Curragh (7f, good to soft, 16/1) 12 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Landed Naas maiden last season but hasn't kicked on this term; cheekpieces on for AW debut.
5th	4 5th (4) (13/2 +28%) Mehman		6.5 13/2(+28%)																															(4) Mehman 13/2, Course winner. Latest win at Naas in May. 12/1, bit below form sixth of 16 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 13 days ago, never nearer. Blinkers on 1st time. All wins over 5f incl' three here but good first run over 7f last month; blinkers on.
6th	14 6th (14) (8/1 -100%) Rockbury Lad		8 8/1(-100%)																															(14) Rockbury Lad 8/1, Unreliable individual but is a course winner. 9/1, won 12-runner handicap at Punchestown (9.2f, good) 24 days ago.

7th	13 7th (13) (9/2 +78%) Zabeir		4.5 9/2(+78%)																															(13) Zabeir 9/2, C&D winner. Twelfth of 17 in handicap (8/1) at Leopardstown (7.2f, good to firm) 64 days ago. Sole win came over C&D in Sept' 2022; struggling for form on turf of late; hard to fancy.
8th	6 8th (6) (5/1 -43%) Prisoner's Dilemma		5 5/1(-43%)																															(6) Prisoner's Dilemma 5/1, 4-time C&D winner. Didn't need to improve to win 13-runner handicap at this C&D (20/1) 21 days ago, driven out. A 5 lb rise demands more. 4th C&D win last month; still on workable mark despite 5lb rise and better drawn now.

Back down in trip. C&D winner; highly tried early this term but struggled in h'caps since; 7f on AW may help.

Looks competitive on form. Sole win came here (1m); back to form with good Laytown 2nd; will relish extra furlong.
11th	10 11th (10) (25/1 -25%) Nikki Swango		25 25/1(-25%)																															(10) Nikki Swango 25/1, Course winner. 8/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Fairyhouse (7f, good) 18 days ago. Risky proposition at present. 6f maiden winner here; form has dipped on turf of late; needs AW revival.
12th	5 12th (5) (25/1 -79%) Never Cry Never		25 25/1(-79%)																															(5) Never Cry Never 25/1, Course winner. 9/1 and blinkered for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, soft) 9 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Tough to fancy on this year's efforts but the booking of Billy Lee takes the eye. Off the mark at 4th attempt over 6f here last term; hasn't beaten many home for new yard.
13th	2 13th (2) (25/1 -108%) Free Solo		25 25/1(-108%)																															(2) Free Solo 25/1, C&D winner. 16/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Listowel (7.1f, good to soft) 17 days ago, slowly away. Needs a couple of these to falter. 3 of his 4 wins on Polytrack inc' C&D; hasn't shown enough recently; on last winning mark.
14th	11 14th (11) (66/1 -164%) Beauty Bella		66 66/1(-164%)																															(11) Beauty Bella 66/1, 13/2, first run since leaving Adrian Murray when below form third of 10 in claimer at Laytown (7f) 25 days ago.

Three times successful here over the minimum trip, MEHMAN can gain a first victory over 7f. A revelation on the surface a couple of seasons back, the five-year-old returned to something like his best when winning on turf at Naas in May. However, following a really promising first try over this distance at the Curragh last weekend, the gelding looks ready to add to his career tally. First-time blinkers should also benefit the Gerard O'Leary-trained gelding. A five-time winner over a mile here, Punk Poet has also won at this shorter trip on turf. While the additional furlong would be preferable, the seven-year-old is unlikely to be far away. Prisoner's Dilemma, who returned to form here last month, should also be competitive.

PUNK POET had an excuse at the Curragh last time and is on a good mark returned to a track he's tasted plenty of success on. Recent Laytown runner-up Not Forgotten has a pretty solid AW record and is second choice ahead of Michael O'Callaghan's Rockbury Lad.

PRISONER'S DILEMMA gained a 4th C&D win 3 weeks ago, has a better draw (1) this time and the form has been boosted

2	4 2nd (4) (5/1 +17%) Tamrat		5 5/1(+17%)																															(4) Tamrat 5/1, 11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at Naas (10.4f, good to soft) 47 days ago, going off too hard. Down in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Yard having good spell. Hasn't managed to win since debut and disappointing at short odds of late; bit to prove.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/4 +31%) Tokenomics		2.75 11/4(+31%)																															(2) Tokenomics 11/4, Course winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Career best when winning 6-runner minor event (7/2) at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago, readily. Should go well again. Course winner; made it 3 wins from last 4 starts latest at 7f; 1m and 4lb rise both fine.

Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Navan (8f, good, 6/4) 20 days ago, always holding on. Firmly on the up and boasts leading claims. Went close in claimer here in July and hasn't looked back since; major player up 5lb.
5th	6 5th (6) (8/1 -14%) Pier Pressure		8 8/1(-14%)																															(6) Pier Pressure 8/1, Course winner. Latest win at Gowran in July. Seventh of 8 in handicap (7/2) at this course (7f) 7 days ago. Yard in good form. Not discounted. Dual course winner; running well in defeat of late but up against progressive sorts here.
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 -100%) September Leaves		18 18/1(-100%)																															(8) September Leaves 18/1, Latest win at Gowran in September. 11/2, eighth of 12 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft) 10 days ago, not ideally placed. Cheekpieces back on. Won twice at this trip but slow starts costing her recently and needs career-best.
7th	9 7th (9) (18/1 -50%) Ivasecret		18 18/1(-50%)																															(9) Ivasecret 18/1, First run since leaving Ian Williams when good fourth of 12 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.9f, soft, 6/1) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Merits consideration. 5-time AW winner; respectable 4th last week but this looks tough from higher AW mark.
8th	3 8th (3) (10/1 -100%) Shigar		10 10/1(-100%)																															(3) Shigar 10/1, 13/2, career best when winning 16-runner handicap at Navan (8.1f, good) 43 days ago, driven out. Rise of 4 lb seems fair and he's likely to be on the premises again. Dual AW winner in Britain; gained first turf win latest and form working out; only up 4lb.
9th	7 9th (7) (25/1 -127%) Ferrybank		25 25/1(-127%)																															(7) Ferrybank 25/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Latest win at Leopardstown in June. 12/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Listowel (7.1f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Others more persuasive. C&D winner in January and won twice since; needs best effort for a while to defy this mark.

David Marnane's progressive three-year-old TOKENOMICS can follow up his recent Curragh success. A dual winner in July, the gelding ran a respectable race in mid-division at York the following month, before resuming winning ways last time. Stepping back up to a mile should suit the strong travelling son of The Great Gatsby. Proven on the surface, he should go close off a 4lb higher mark. Blues Emperor makes a first visit to Dundalk since finishing fourth on his racecourse debut back in 2021. A proven performer in premier handicap races, the top weight has his burden eased somewhat by the 10lb claim of Patrick McGettigan. A three-time winner at this venue, Ferrybank is sure to make a bold bid from the front.

BUCANEER'S SPIRIT is on an upward curve and had something in hand when landing a Navan handicap last time, so he gets the nod over fellow last-time-out winners Shigar and Tokenomics in a tightly knit affair.

The form of SHIGAR's latest win is working out nicely with those filling the places both winning since and he's only 4lb higher here

Others more persuasive. 0-11; not beaten far in 4 starts here last winter; encouraging yard debut and 1m2f is fine.
7th	11 7th (11) (33/1 +0%) Wishes And Dreams		33 33/1(+0%)																															(11) Wishes And Dreams 33/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, fourteenth of 16 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Roscommon (15.6f, soft) 11 days ago. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. 4 solid runs here last winter; shown little over timber recently; return here may help.

It is surely significant that apprentice title contender James Ryan has stayed loyal to AREANA. Third on her recent stable debut for Conor Maxwell, the five-year-old travelled into the race easily before her effort levelled out inside the final furlong. While she may well have just needed that run on her first start since February, dropping back in trip looks a wise move. Ryan will most likely ride a waiting race before delivering the mare from off the pace late on. Top-weight Lohengrin also enters calculations along with Koniag.

AREANA is well treated on her best form and should strip fitter for her encouraging debut for this yard here a fortnight ago, so a chance is taken on her to get the better of the likes of Lohengrin and Church Mountain.

She's still a maiden but the unexposed HARSEVA has run with promise in h'caps this term and her latest run is worth forgiving

1	4 1st (4) (5/4 +55%) Squire Danagher		1.25 5/4(+55%)																															(4) Squire Danagher 5/4, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D (4/1) 21 days ago, keeping on well. Goes well here and worth considering again. Last month's C&D winner upped in grade now; respected.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/2 -64%) Psalm		4.5 9/2(-64%)																															(7) Psalm 9/2, Winner here in September. 7/2, good fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 14 days ago. Will rightly have his supporters. Best form over shorter; others look stronger stayers.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/1 +29%) Lady Lunette		10 10/1(+29%)																															(2) Lady Lunette 10/1, 28/1 and blinkered for 1st time, 12 lengths seventh of 11 to Je Zous in Denny Cordell Lavarack & Lanwades Stud Fillies Stakes at Gowran (9.4f, good) 20 days ago.

5th	1 5th (1) (4/1 +20%) Shayzann		4 4/1(+20%)																															(1) Shayzann 4/1, 16/1, twenty third of 24 in Irish Cambridgeshire at the Curragh (8f, good) 41 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Stamina to prove. On fair mark; drops in class and chance if staying this longer trip.
6th	5 6th (5) (7/1 +22%) No Say Ever		7 7/1(+22%)																															(5) No Say Ever 7/1, C&D winner. 22/1, 3¼ lengths fifth of 15 to Polemon in handicap at the Curragh (12f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Hood back on. C&D winner two years ago; good Curragh run last weekend puts him in the mix.

A maiden winner on good ground at Naas last season, SHAYZANN has reached the frame in a couple of decent handicaps this term. Although well beaten on his sole previous visit to this track, that was in a Listed race and the son of Shamardal should go very close back in calmer waters. Three-time course winner Squire Danagher is sure to prove a serious threat. Andy Oliver's gelding ran well in the Red God handicap here in August, before winning on his return visit last month. A previous winner here, Burren Song arrives in good form having finished runner-up at the Curragh recently. James Ryan's 3lb claim brings him right into the equation.

BURREN SONG ran a cracker behind Polemon at the Curragh last week and could reverse placings back on this surface having run plenty of good races here. Squire Danagher is establishing a good record at Dundalk also and has to be respected. Aidan O'Brien's 3-y-o Psalm seems sure to be popular.

Last weekend's Curragh winner POLEMON can follow up off a 4lb higher mark

1	3 1st (3) (13/8 +73%) Natural Ruler		1.625 13/8(+73%)																															(3) Natural Ruler 13/8, Winner at Fairyhouse in June. 12/1, good third of 8 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not taken lightly with the step back up in trip likely in his favour. Respectable run here last month; cheekpieces on and will appreciate return to this trip.
2	11 2nd (11) (80/1 -400%) Warrior Lion		80 80/1(-400%)																															(11) Warrior Lion 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 80/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Roscommon (7.5f, heavy) 52 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Cheekpieces back on. Plenty to find on form. Down the field in 7f Flat handicaps at Galway and Roscommon; big step up in trip here.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/2 -13%) Miss Paloma		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(5) Miss Paloma 9/2, Both career victories gained here, the latest over C&D in July. Good second of 9 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D 21 days ago and she merits consideration. Recent C&D second; 2lb higher but should be thereabouts with Billy Lee taking over.
4	2 4th (2) (8/1 -60%) Bright N Shine		8 8/1(-60%)																															(2) Bright N Shine 8/1, Course winner. 3/1, very good second of 9 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good) 20 days ago, clear of rest. Step back up in trip will hold no fears and he's one of the likelier types here. Back to form of late; handicapper has had his say but still respected.
5th	9 5th (9) (16/1 -78%) Pearl Jewel		16 16/1(-78%)																															(9) Pearl Jewel 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 9 in maiden at this course (10.7f, 50/1) 21 days ago. Respected making handicap debut back up in trip. Holds Altesse Blanche on recent run here but may not prove as strong a stayer.
6th	13 6th (13) (6/1 +33%) Tiding		6 6/1(+33%)																															(13) Tiding 6/1, Stepped forward from his debut when running on third at Navan (10.2f) on his penultimate start. Not in same form upped to 14f back at that venue 3 weeks ago but the switch to handicaps rates a plus now and he's one to bear in mind with his pedigree very much an ongoing recommendation. Superbly-bred colt unexposed on handicap/AW debut over what could be his optimum trip.
7th	12 7th (12) (25/1 -150%) Trethorn		25 25/1(-150%)																															(12) Trethorn 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, 10¾ lengths eleventh of 14 to Proleek Prince in handicap at Punchestown (8.1f, good) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Poor handicap debut behind Proleek Prince at Punchestown and upped in trip for AW debut.
8th	8 8th (8) (10/1 -11%) Proleek Prince		10 10/1(-11%)																															(8) Proleek Prince 10/1, Winner at Punchestown in September. Fifth of 7 in handicap (10/3) at Bellewstown (7.9f, soft) 9 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Hood on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Best form at 1m; back up in trip here with hood tried.
9th	1 9th (1) (50/1 -456%) Timourid		50 50/1(-456%)																															(1) Timourid 50/1, Course winner. Latest win at Leopardstown in June. 22/1, first run since leaving Paul W. Flynn when eighth of 9 in handicap at Listowel (12f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Yet to convince over this far; remains opposable despite drop in grade.
10th	10 10th (10) (125/1 -942%) Slowdownbarney		125 125/1(-942%)																															(10) Slowdownbarney 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 20/1, eighth of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Listowel (16f, good) on NH debut 19 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Gavin Patrick Cromwell. Makes handicap debut. Ex Gavin Cromwell; showed some ability but opening mark appears high enough.
11th	6 11th (6) (150/1 -1150%) Morph Speed		150 150/1(-1150%)																															(6) Morph Speed 150/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 80/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (17.5f, good to soft) 45 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Previous C&D winner on long losing run and remains of limited appeal despite reduced mark.
12th	14 12th (14) (66/1 -371%) Street Mentor		66 66/1(-371%)																															(14) Street Mentor 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, good) 20 days ago, weakening 2f out. Needs to raise his game now handicapping over this longer trip. Initial promise hasn't materialised; trip could be a problem on handicap debut.
13th	4 13th (4) (33/1 -371%) Eastmore		33 33/1(-371%)																															(4) Eastmore 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Fair form at best over hurdles. 5/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (17f, soft) 5 days ago. One to monitor in the market for clues making handicap debut in this sphere. Back from hurdling relatively unexposed on the Flat entering handicaps.
7	7 |PU| (7) (11/2 +39%) Altesse Blanche		5.5 11/2(+39%)																															(7) Altesse Blanche 11/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 20/1, sixth of 18 in maiden at the Curragh (10f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Switch to handicaps in his favour now and he's one to consider. Lightly raced 3yo a likely improver now upped in trip for handicap debut.

Runner-up over course and distance last time, MISS PALOMA can go one better. The Henry De Bromhead-trained mare, who has won twice at this track, ran a solid race when just finding one too good on her most recent visit. A strong traveller, the six-year-old should get a nice tow into this race. Lightly-raced on the Flat, Eastmore has to be of interest on his first start on the Polytrack surface. Having shown little on his first few runs over hurdles for Charles Byrnes, the gelding hinted at a revival when second at Down Royal recently. Natural Ruler, who finished third in a slightly higher grade here last time, should appreciate stepping back up to this trip.

The well-bred TIDING was below best on his qualifying run at Navan 3 weeks ago but that came over further and, having shaped with plenty of encouragement at that venue previously, Dermot Weld's 3-y-o could be worth chancing to quickly get back on track making handicap debut. There is plenty of depth in opposition, dangers headed up by Natural Ruler, Miss Paloma and Bright N Shine.

Preference is for MISS PALOMA who has good recent C&D form and has a good draw for a prominent racer

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.
