This looks like a good opportunity for EMERALD BANNER to gain a deserved win. The Starspangledbanner filly has been runner-up on her last three outings, including chasing home Alabama on a visit here in September. She has a mark of 87 and looks the one to beat at the weights now. Clonmacash won a nursery over course and distance nine days ago and has to carry a penalty for that success. With a mark of 79 he looks to have a tough task giving 10lb to the selection. Zelestial had a nice run on her debut at Navan back in May, behind Givemethebeatboys, and is an interesting one returning from a break having been slightly disappointing in Listowel subsequently.

EMERALD BANNER sets the standard and may not have reached her limit, so she takes preference over Twilight Hours, who looks a notable newcomer. Zelestial also warrants a mention.

Very hard to oppose EMERALD BANNER, in receipt of 10lb from recent C&D nursery winner Clonmacash

Three-time course and distance winner JERED MADDOX ran well when fourth on his last outing here a fortnight ago and may be able to strike again off his current mark. The Lawman gelding didn't have the clearest passage last time in a very competitive contest and if he produces a similar effort he should run a big race now. Daamberdiplomat had a few decent turf runs during the summer and has eased to a nice mark. With Wesley Joyce taking off 5lb he could be a big player. Volatile Analyst is another who has been slipping down the weights and the six-time winner could be a contender now off this kind of mark.

VOLATILE ANALYST is well handicapped and has been shaping up encouragingly so could be the way to go having won on the AW in the past. Secret Magician and Daamberdiplomat are respected also.

After 21 starts on the turf SECRET MAGICIAN makes plenty of appeal on her AW debut here from a good draw

VICTOR'S CHOICE showed much more when making her handicap debut at Galway late last month and may be able to go one better now. Adrian Murray's charge was a touch unlucky then, when meeting traffic problems, and finished off well to get within half a length of I've Been Dreaming despite going to post a 40/1 shot. Off just a pound higher mark there looks to be a race in her. A tongue-tie is added now. Masonbrook Meadow ran a decent race when fifth here last month and, with blinkers fitted now, could get closer, while Thia is noted too.

VICTOR'S CHOICE improved when second in a stronger race than this at Galway on nursery debut and, with further progress on the cards, she's well worth a chance to open her account at the possible expense of Thia, who was behind the selection in the same race but should benefit from the longer trip here. Koniag is also considered.

An open nursery. KONIAG ran well in his first nursery and appeared to get stuck in the mud in his second.

DELUCA CHOP ran really well here on his last visit and would be a deserving winner now. The French-bred gelding was just pipped close home after making the running here over the extended 10 furlongs in September. He has run well over further so going back up to this trip doesn't look an issue. Nevada Brave has run well on his last couple of outings here and looks well worth another shot at this trip. Sioux Princess won over course and distance on her penultimate outing and may appreciate going back up in trip again having been beaten favourite over the extended ten last time.

HUMTAZA remains a maiden following nine attempts, but she has dropped quickly in the weights and took a step back in the right direction when a never-nearer fifth over C&D last time. She may well be the answer to this wide-open handicap. The return to this trip looks a good move for Nevada Brave, who has made the frame both starts over 10.7f here since returning from a short break and he is feared most ahead of Deluca Chop.

From stall 3 the suggestion is DELUCA CHOP who ran well over shorter here last and returning to further should be a positive.

Going up in trip again should suit WISHES AND DREAMS, who showed significant improvement last time. The Highland Reel filly ran on well when grabbing second late on on her handicap debut over the extended ten furlongs here nine days ago. That was just her fourth career outing and there should be more to come. Sky Legend ran well at a big price when chasing home the in-form Celtic Revival here at the start of the month and is fitted with cheekpieces now. He could be a big player. The consistent Wild Shot is another that has to come into calculations.

WISHES AND DREAMS belied big odds as she nearly made a successful handicap debut here last week and looks the way to go in the hope she can build on that. Hot Lady and Sky Legend are among the other chief players.

A good few with chances but the suggestion is ELZAAMSAN in the hope he gets a decent pace to chase. He lurks on a good mark.

SARAH PURSER may prove the answer to a tricky looking maiden. The Zoffany filly was easy to back, and well beaten, on heavy ground at Killarney last time and it looks significant that connections try her on the all-weather now. She had run well previously when third on decent ground at Clonmel and looks up to winning a maiden at this time of year. Banana Three was second off a mark of 70 in handicap company here last time and is entitled to play a big part in an average looking maiden now. Skyquake is another that could benefit from a sounder surface now having faded tamely in testing ground at Naas last time.

APERCU shaped with plenty of encouragement when fourth on her recent C&D debut and, with improvement on the cards, she's selected to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Banana Three and Skyquake head the dangers.

It might be worth taking a chance on APERCU improving enough from her C&D debut fourth.
Class & Speed Card

The admirably consistent LONGBOURN may be able to strike again here. Scott McCullagh takes 3lb off his back, which is a help for the top-weight, and this is an easier task than he faced on his last outing, when running a cracker in the valuable Northfields Handicap at the Curragh on Irish Champions Weekend. Down at the other end of the handicap Fairytale Princess is another big player having won two of her last three here. The Camelot filly takes a jump up in class now though. Benavente stayed on well when scoring over a mile here a fortnight ago and it's interesting to see him stepping up to this trip for the first time.

A few in-form sorts clash in a competitive handicap. LUKE SHORT could still be nicely treated up 5 lb for his recent course defeat of Jaafel and gets the nod. His old rival should give it his usual good shot at this venue. Fairytale Princess is another who has taken really well to the polytrack surface here and also makes the shortlist along with Benavente.

Though raised another 9lb for her last win, FAIRYTALE PRINCESS (nap) might be able to score again with a capable claimer taking off 5lb
Class & Speed Card

HIJO DE LA LUNA was slightly disappointing on his handicap debut here nine days ago but should appreciate stepping back up in trip now. The Sea The Moon gelding stayed on late when seventh to Sea Chariot and was only beaten just over two lengths at the line. He was eased a couple of pounds afterwards and there looks to be a race in him off this kind of mark. Stablemate Caulaincourt ran a decent race when fifth over course and distance against some experienced sorts in a claimer here last month. He could be a contender now back in handicap company. Florida Taiga was dropped a pound after finishing sixth in a Curragh handicap last month and is another to consider in an average contest.

HASTEN SLOWLY is starting to look dangerously well treated and might be worth chancing. Dermot Weld's Florida Taiga is next on the list ahead of Ger Lyons pair Hijo De La Luna and Caulaincourt.

A chance is taken on LADY CHRISTA who went close over 1m2f at Navan but didn't stay 1m6f there next time.

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.
