16:25 Dundalk Handicap 5f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (10/3 +44%) Crystal Luna	3.333333 10/3(+44%)	(2) Crystal Luna 10/3, 9/4, did all she could when second of 7 in maiden at this C&D 7 days ago. Back in a handicap and fancied to go close again. Good run in a maiden here last week; well drawn under Colin Keane.
2	10 2nd (10) (25/1 +24%) Turn Up The Beat	25 25/1(+24%)	(10) Turn Up The Beat 25/1, Standout effort when winning at Naas in June. 9/1, again ran poorly when seventh of 12 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) just under 11 weeks ago. Others more persuasive. 25-1 when winning a Naas handicap in June and hasn't threatened since then.
3	1 3rd (1) (10/3 -11%) I'm Spartacus	3.333333 10/3(-11%)	(1) I'm Spartacus 10/3, Course winner in September. Looked unlucky not to win when second of 14 in handicap at this course (6f, 5/1) 5 days ago, left with lot to do. In the mix again provided he breaks well from a wide draw. Another very solid run from off the pace when going down narrowly here last week.
4	12 4th (12) (33/1 -83%) Carrigans Grove	33 33/1(-83%)	(12) Carrigans Grove 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1, 6 lengths eighth of 12 to Sam's Xpress in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago. Worth another chance. Beaten 4l and 6l in races here won by My Girl Sioux and Sam's Xpress; has to step up.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/2 -13%) Sam's Xpress	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(6) Sam's Xpress 9/2, 11/2, bounced back to form to take advantage of a much-reduced mark in 12-runner handicap at this C&D 19 days ago by 1½ lengths from Hezahunk, driven out. Should be bang there once again up 6 lb. Came from off the pace to beat some of today's rivals 19 days ago.
6th	15 6th (15) (14/1 +13%) Hezahunk	14 14/1(+13%)	(15) Hezahunk 14/1, Sole win from 32 Flat runs came here in September. 25/1, respectable sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 5 days ago, never nearer. Enters calculations if getting a run. RESERVE. First reserve; hard to win with but capable of a big run as he's shown of late.
7th	8 7th (8) (5/1 +29%) My Girl Sioux	5 5/1(+29%)	(8) My Girl Sioux 5/1, Sole win from 35 Flat runs came over C&D last month. 13/2, good second of 12 in handicap at this C&D 5 weeks ago, running on. Can go well again. But for a slow start she might well have followed up here last month; respected.
8th	3 8th (3) (16/1 -33%) Overdue Revival	16 16/1(-33%)	(3) Overdue Revival 16/1, 20/1, wasted no time getting back to form when 2¼ lengths third of 12 to Sam's Xpress in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago, keeping on when bumped 1f out. Only had the six races and closed in late on when third behind Sam's Xpress and Hezahunk.
9th	11 9th (11) (8/1 +20%) Babyface	8 8/1(+20%)	(11) Babyface 8/1, 7/2, below form when ninth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 5 weeks ago. Bounce back required. Behind My Girl Sioux in his last two races, though too keen for his own good the last time.
10th	16 10th (16) (125/1 -89%) Ascendent	125 125/1(-89%)	(16) Ascendent 125/1, No impact since switched to handicaps. Easy to look elsewhere. RESERVE. Second reserve; some promise in maidens but well beaten in four handicaps here.
11th	4 11th (4) (66/1 -371%) Happy Henry	66 66/1(-371%)	(4) Happy Henry 66/1, Fifth of 7 in maiden (40/1) at this C&D 7 days ago. Looks limited on early evidence but could show more now handicapping. No closer than 7l in maidens here, from 5f to 1m; likely best watched on handicap debut.
12th	5 12th (5) (20/1 -150%) Havana Notion	20 20/1(-150%)	(5) Havana Notion 20/1, Course winner. Latest win at Tipperary in July. Didn't see his race out at all and was later reported to be lame when ninth of 12 in handicap (5/1) at Down Royal (5f, good) 5 months ago. Capable sprinter on his day; mark is fine but lacking a recent run might not be.
13th	13 13th (13) (66/1 -32%) Old Chicago	66 66/1(-32%)	(13) Old Chicago 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 13 in handicap at the Curragh (5f, good, 40/1) 4 months ago. Modest maiden efforts here before struggling in two handicaps at the Curragh.
14th	14 14th (14) (125/1 -89%) Quiet Affair	125 125/1(-89%)	(14) Quiet Affair 125/1, Again showed little when 9 lengths eleventh of 12 to Sam's Xpress in handicap at this C&D (125/1) 19 days ago. Best form was in Britain and she's held by some of these on a recent C&D encounter.

CRYSTAL LUNA has yet to win in nine starts but has some useful form in maidens and ran well over C&D just last week. She was well held in eighth place behind Hasiyna here in early December but had been held up off the pace then and, having jumped smartly from the stalls last week, showed improved form. She seems ideally suited by 5f, Colin Keane again rides, and she can make use of her favourable inside draw. Hasiyna, who is drawn wide in 15, finished over two lengths behind I'm Spartacus here five days ago, although both horse's best form is over 6f.

A host in with chances but the vote goes to SAM'S XPRESS, who bounced back to form to take advantage of a much-reduced mark over C&D recently and remains well handicapped on old form following a 6 lb rise. I'm Spartacus, Crystal Luna and My Girl Sioux are just a handful of possible threats in a tricky opener to solve.

Lots of interlinking form and loads of these have chances. CRYSTAL LUNA probably produced her best run yet in a maiden here last week.

16:55 Dundalk Handicap 7f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	12 1st (12) (10/3 +33%) Your Call	3.333333 10/3(+33%)	(12) Your Call 10/3, Good second of 12 in nursery at this course (8f, 6/1) 33 days ago, sticking to task. Can make presence felt. Twice runner-up in nurseries, giving it a good go from the front here a month ago.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/1 -40%) Powerful Lady	7 7/1(-40%)	(1) Powerful Lady 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, good third of 9 in nursery at this course (6f) 7 days ago. Can give a good account. Has hinted at winning potential, including here last time over 6f; stamina to prove.
3	6 3rd (6) (12/1 -9%) Lyle The Crocodile	12 12/1(-9%)	(6) Lyle The Crocodile 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 66/1, sixth of 19 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) 56 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Open to progress. Has got a little closer in each of his races, last time finishing sixth of 19 at Navan.
4	8 4th (8) (80/1 -142%) Esque Elegance	80 80/1(-142%)	(8) Esque Elegance 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, eleventh of 12 in nursery at this course (8f) 33 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Only 3lb lower than when well beaten on handicap debut over 1m here a month ago.
5th	7 5th (7) (5/1 +38%) Tam Lin	5 5/1(+38%)	(7) Tam Lin 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, respectable fourth of 13 in claimer at this C&D 19 days ago, running on late. In the picture. Best run yet when under 4l away in the first-time blinkers over C&D; can improve.
6th	9 6th (9) (11/2 +0%) Annie Lavinia	5.5 11/2(+0%)	(9) Annie Lavinia 11/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good 2 lengths third of 13 to Amber Blossom in nursery (9/1) at this C&D 28 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Appeared to find some improvement to be 2l off Amber Blossom here last month.
7th	5 7th (5) (7/2 -5%) Amber Blossom	3.5 7/2(-5%)	(5) Amber Blossom 7/2, Lightly-raced winner. 16/1, career best when winning 13-runner nursery at this C&D 28 days ago. Not taken lightly. Improved winner here four weeks ago but now has to deal with a 9lb rise.
8th	10 8th (10) (20/1 -82%) Kitty Bear	20 20/1(-82%)	(10) Kitty Bear 20/1, 11/1, below form sixth of 12 in nursery at this course (8f) 33 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Close up on nursery debut at Down Royal in September but hasn't kicked on from there.
9th	11 9th (11) (22/1 -57%) Oitentinha	22 22/1(-57%)	(11) Oitentinha 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in maiden at Naas (5f, good, 66/1). Off 165 days. Significantly up in trip. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Plenty to find on form. No better than mid division in her maidens but now hooded for handicap debut.
10th	4 10th (4) (14/1 -56%) Fairhaven	14 14/1(-56%)	(4) Fairhaven 14/1, Respectable fourth of 12 in nursery at this course (8f, 14/1) 33 days ago. Needs considering. Not had a lot of racing and 7f might be a better fit than the 1m last time.
11th	2 11th (2) (100/1 -150%) Cala Margarida	100 100/1(-150%)	(2) Cala Margarida 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 14 in nursery at this C&D (50/1) 61 days ago. 50-1 when beating one home on nursery debut over C&D two months ago; opposable.
12th	14 12th (14) (11/1 +45%) Zuzzudio	11 11/1(+45%)	(14) Zuzzudio 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, twelfth of 14 in nursery at this course (8f) 14 days ago. Weighted to go well if back on her A-game. Slow start didn't help but never got competitive on AW debut two weeks ago.
13th	3 13th (3) (50/1 -213%) Bridezilla	50 50/1(-213%)	(3) Bridezilla 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 11 in maiden at this course (8f, 20/1) 7 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not easy to make a case for. Despite a poor draw, could have a big effort in her on nursery debut.
14th	13 14th (13) (80/1 -300%) Keithal	80 80/1(-300%)	(13) Keithal 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourteenth of 16 in maiden at Navan (5f, good, 200/1). Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip.

AMBER BLOSSOM showed much improved form to win over C&D last month and can defy a 9lb hike. Out of a well-related winning dam, her initial form was poor but having then missed the break here last month, she finished her race powerfully and can continue to progress. Annie Lavinia finished third in that race and has a slightly more exposed profile so should struggle to turn the form around. Your Call, poorly drawn in 16, has run some inconsistent races but has shown ability and notably ran well on course debut last month, which suggests he will win on this surface soon, although he drops down in distance.

Plenty are in with a shout but ANNIE LAVINIA looks the way to go on the back of her excellent C&D third last time out. The handily-weighted Fairhaven heads the list of dangers with Your Call, Amber Blossom and Lyle The Crocodile all in the mix too.

Plenty to consider and TAM LIN was fourth here last time in the new blinkers and that despite a troubled passage.

16:55 Dundalk Handicap 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

17:25 Dundalk Handicap 7f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (13/8 +46%) Apache Outlaw	1.625 13/8(+46%)	(2) Apache Outlaw 13/8, Three wins from 15 runs this year. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (11/10) at this course (6f) 21 days ago by ¾ length from Dontspoilasale, plenty in hand. 5 lb rise to deal with but he remain of major interest. Last year's winner beat Dontspoilasale here last month over 6f; big player.
2	9 2nd (9) (15/2 -25%) Current Option	7.5 15/2(-25%)	(9) Current Option 15/2, Good fourth of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, 10/1) 5 days ago, headed only late. Expected to be bang there from the same mark. Fine run over inadequate 6f here last Friday; one to consider back at his optimum trip.
3	5 3rd (5) (16/1 -33%) Dontspoilasale	16 16/1(-33%)	(5) Dontspoilasale 16/1, Course winner. Latest win here in November. Eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (6f, 17/2) 5 days ago. Best form at 6f, likely vulnerable trying 7f for the first time.
4	3 4th (3) (4/1 +0%) Catch The Paddy	4 4/1(+0%)	(3) Catch The Paddy 4/1, First run since leaving Kevin Ryan and won 7-runner handicap (16/1) at this course (8f) 12 days ago, pushed out under completely different tactics. Front-running 1m win here on yard debut; 5lb higher.
5th	7 5th (7) (4/1 +0%) Clarita	4 4/1(+0%)	(7) Clarita 4/1, Career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this C&D (8/1) 21 days ago, well on top finish having been forced to switch. This is a better race but she's clearly in excellent order. Recent C&D winner 8lb higher and steps up in grade but should go well.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/2 0%) Harry's Bar	4.5 9/2(0%)	(1) Harry's Bar 9/2, 8-time course winner. Fifteen wins from 57 Flat runs. Good fifth of 11 in handicap (9/2) at this course (6f) 5 days ago. Stable having good spell and this is a slight drop in class. Not beaten far of late; should be thereabouts but top-weight likely vulnerable.
7th	6 7th (6) (40/1 -21%) Benavente	40 40/1(-21%)	(6) Benavente 40/1, C&D winner. 20/1, 7 lengths sixth of 7 to Catch The Paddy in handicap at this course (8f) 12 days ago. Slowly away on both recent comeback runs when well held so questions to answer here.
8th	10 8th (10) (25/1 -56%) Punk Poet	25 25/1(-56%)	(10) Punk Poet 25/1, Five-time course winner. 9/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 14 days ago. Five wins here all at 1m; mixed form of late in a busy campaign and others now preferred.
9th	8 9th (8) (66/1 -164%) Duplantis	66 66/1(-164%)	(8) Duplantis 66/1, First run since leaving G. M. Lyons when fifteenth of 16 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 33/1). Off 172 days and now left Richard John O'Brien. AW debut for new yard and hard to be confident in on first start since June.

CATCH THE PADDY was a real bargain buy for 3,500gns last October and might follow up a recent course success, being as yet unexposed on all-weather surfaces. Rated 92 on the turf last June prior to losing form, he bounced back when winning well over a mile here recently. Dropping in distance shouldn't inconvenience as he has prior form at this distance and it is notable that he has won and finished second from just three career all-weather tries. Both Clarita's wins have come over C&D and she won last month, but competes from a career-high rating. Apache Outlaw has won once over this C&D and also won here last month, but is slightly better over 6f.

Adrian McGuinness looks to hold a strong hand with CURRENT OPTION just about the most persuasive option having finished fourth in a blanket finish over 6f on Friday despite his rider dropping his whip close home. Stablemate Apache Outlaw is a big threat, along with veteran Harry's Bar.

Many with chances, slight preference being for recent C&D winner CLARITA, one of only a couple of 3yos in the race

17:25 Dundalk Handicap 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

17:55 Dundalk Handicap 7f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	10 1st (10) (7/2 +22%) Amemri	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(10) Amemri 7/2, C&D winner. Latest win at Listowel in September. 10/1, fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 21 days ago, left poorly placed. Dropped to a handy mark. Interesting. Finished just behind Mullacash Buzz here recently after being slowly away; considered.
2	3 2nd (3) (3/1 -50%) Senado Square	3 3/1(-50%)	(3) Senado Square 3/1, Won 14-runner handicap (8/1) at this course (6f) 5 days ago. Carries 7 lb penalty but not taken lightly in his current mood. Penalised for last week's 6f win here and this is a belated first try over 7f.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/2 +6%) Circles	7.5 15/2(+6%)	(4) Circles 15/2, C&D winner. 9/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago. This is her trip and she's a dual C&D winner; however, last week's run was disappointing.
4	6 4th (6) (7/2 +36%) Mullacash Buzz	3.5 7/2(+36%)	(6) Mullacash Buzz 7/2, 4-time C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 14 in handicap (5/1) at this course (8f) 21 days ago. Not taken lightly. It was over 1m when weakening here three weeks ago; he's better at 7f.
5th	5 5th (5) (17/2 +29%) Big Baby Bull	8.5 17/2(+29%)	(5) Big Baby Bull 17/2, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 28/1, very good fifth of 13 in claimer at this C&D 14 days ago. Blinkers back on. Solid claims. Regressive profile but he stopped the rot with a better run over C&D two weeks ago.
6th	2 6th (2) (9/2 -13%) Half Nutz	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(2) Half Nutz 9/2, Thirty one runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (16/1) 7 days ago. Considered. Dropped to a tempting mark and he was edging closer after starting slowly here last week.
7th	1 7th (1) (22/1 -22%) Signor Ferrari	22 22/1(-22%)	(1) Signor Ferrari 22/1, Latest win at Fairyhouse in July. 100/1, tenth of 13 in claimer at this C&D 14 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Well held in claimers here the last twice and now 0-9 on AW surfaces.
8th	9 8th (9) (66/1 -32%) Top Of The Pops	66 66/1(-32%)	(9) Top Of The Pops 66/1, Last of 14 in handicap (100/1) at this course (8f) 28 days ago. 0-8 since successful debut when based in England; struggled since 3 years out of action.
9th	7 9th (7) (20/1 -43%) Task Ahead	20 20/1(-43%)	(7) Task Ahead 20/1, Tenth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D 7 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has yet to make the frame and didn't look a winner waiting to happen here last week.
10th	13 10th (13) (100/1 -52%) Phoenix Princess	100 100/1(-52%)	(13) Phoenix Princess 100/1, Last of 14 in handicap at Cork (6f, soft, 125/1) 78 days ago. Rejoined yard after leaving Michael Fenton. Has shown nothing like enough in three runs this year to believe she'll be the answer.
11th	8 11th (8) (28/1 +30%) El Padre	28 28/1(+30%)	(8) El Padre 28/1, Eighth of 14 in handicap (50/1) at this course (8f) 12 days ago. Has work to do. Laytown winner; very lightly raced in the last two years and hasn't been showing much.
12th	11 12th (11) (50/1 -257%) Maestro Stick	50 50/1(-257%)	(11) Maestro Stick 50/1, C&D winner. Below-par seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D (50/1) 7 days ago. Blinkers back on. 3-41, though all three wins have been here; needs to find something on his recent efforts.
13th	14 13th (14) (66/1 -313%) Xquise	66 66/1(-313%)	(14) Xquise 66/1, Tenth of 14 in handicap (22/1) at Naas (8f, good to soft). Off 147 days. Ex-French; remains a maiden and hasn't been threatening to put that right.
14th	12 14th (12) (150/1 -127%) Man Johnny	150 150/1(-127%)	(12) Man Johnny 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 12 in handicap (80/1) at this course (10.7f) 28 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Beaten a long way over 1m2f on return from a long absence last time and best watched.

MULLACASH BUZZ is a four-time C&D winner who should again compete well from his rating. Rated 69 at his peak, he is holding his form and having again run well over a mile here last month, should be better suited by dropping back to his favoured distance, with his same rider again claiming 7lb. It is interesting that Senado Square, who can sometimes be slowly away, is tried at this distance for the first time having won narrowly here five days ago, so has something to prove. Half Nutz hasn't won since 2022 and while he is a six-time winner whose rating has fallen recently, he has yet to score on the all-weather.

AMEMRI didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth here last time out so is fancied to capitalise on a lenient mark. Multiple C&D scorer Mullacash Buzz rates the chief threat, although recent course scorer Senado Square and the well-weighted Half Nutz are others who can have a say.

The filly AMEMRI will need to break better than here last time but she still finished upsides Mullacash Buzz who has live claims.

2	6 2nd (6) (15/2 -88%) Pink Oxalis	7.5 15/2(-88%)	(6) Pink Oxalis 15/2, First run since leaving Joseph G. Murphy when creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 4/1) 12 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Sure to go well. First run on the AW when fourth here 12 days ago, not quite getting home over 1m.

4	1 4th (1) (18/1 -29%) Clonmacash	18 18/1(-29%)	(1) Clonmacash 18/1, Course winner. 28/1, bit below form eighth of 13 in claimer at this C&D 14 days ago. Visor back on. It was a claimer in which he was a little more competitive over C&D two weeks ago.
5th	7 5th (7) (11/4 +50%) Reclaim	2.75 11/4(+50%)	(7) Reclaim 11/4, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (12f, 7/2) 89 days ago. Significantly back down in trip.

7th	11 7th (11) (7/1 -17%) Rattletheonionbag	7 7/1(-17%)	(11) Rattletheonionbag 7/1, Respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (6f, 9/2) 14 days ago, not clear run. Should remain competitive. Still a maiden but bang there in her last four races, all here over 6f; turn looks near.
8th	9 8th (9) (18/1 -125%) What A Squeeze	18 18/1(-125%)	(9) What A Squeeze 18/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable seventh of 14 in handicap (9/1) at this course (8f) 21 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Considered. 12-race maiden but there has been some promise in her recent efforts.
9th	5 9th (5) (11/1 +8%) Hieloray	11 11/1(+8%)	(5) Hieloray 11/1, 17/2, creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 12 days ago, not clear run. Can't be ruled out. No better than mid-division here in his last three races.
10th	14 10th (14) (18/1 -29%) Knockmore Prince	18 18/1(-29%)	(14) Knockmore Prince 18/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 10/1, respectable sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. No wins in 19 but hit the frame over C&D last month and plenty went wrong three weeks ago.
11th	10 11th (10) (16/1 -60%) Chica Power	16 16/1(-60%)	(10) Chica Power 16/1, 3-time C&D winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. 9/1, last of 14 in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Cian Michael Collins. C&D winner; she's on a good mark and now with Tony Martin; market useful.
12th	13 12th (13) (100/1 -52%) Jackandthefox	100 100/1(-52%)	(13) Jackandthefox 100/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, twelfth of 18 in handicap (33/1) at Navan (10f, heavy). Off 21 months. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving Adrian McGuinness. Ran well in a maiden here the once but he's 0-8 and makes trainer debut after long absence.
13th	4 13th (4) (13/2 -30%) Velvet Skies	6.5 13/2(-30%)	(4) Velvet Skies 13/2, One win from 24 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. 9/2, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at this course (6f) 14 days ago. Holding form well and worthy of consideration. Didn't have the clearest of passages last time when not far behind Rattletheonionbag.

Nicola Burns has been making a good impression at Dundalk and her 7lb claim comes into play on DEVIL'S ANGEL. He should appreciate dropping back into the 47-65 grade where he acquitted himself well in October and November. Rattletheonionbag hasn't been beaten far in her last three handicaps over 6f at this track. On two of those occasions, she stayed on in the final furlong which bodes well for another try at 7f. Pink Oxalis finished fourth on her Polytrack/stable debut over further just under a fortnight ago. First-time cheekpieces are applied and she is a contender. Billy Lee is a notable booking for Reclaim, who is worth a market check.

PINK OXALIS travelled strongly when fourth on debut for this yard and, back in trip from an excellent draw, she's worth chancing to land this open-looking contest. Rattletheonionbag and Velvet Skies are two of several dangers.

Although still a maiden, RATTLETHEONIONBAG continues to knock on the door and she's been running on well over 6f.

EMPRESS ARTEMIS certainly didn't go unbacked when making a winning debut in a fillies' maiden over C&D last month. After a tardy start, she travelled notably well and was strong at the finish. Wizard Of Odds shed his maiden tag for his previous trainer at Down Royal in July. Since then, he has had three outings for Stephen Thorne and ran well off the front when runner-up in a median auction race over 7f at this venue. Bishopton is going the right way and just went down by a neck on his first start over C&D for Natalia Lupini, while Joseph O'Brien runs three horses including Waterford Flow, a son of Ghaiyyath who is related to a couple of multiple winners.

EMPRESS ARTEMIS looked a good prospect when making a winning start in a C&D maiden last month and shades the vote over fellow penalised-winner Wizard of Odds. No Nay Never colt Cee En Gee looks the pick of the newcomers.

Empress Artemis and Wizard Of Odds are respected but preference is for BISHOPTON who shaped well on recent C&D yard debut

1	10 1st (10) (5/2 +17%) Inthesmallhours	2.5 5/2(+17%)	(10) Inthesmallhours 5/2, Twice-raced filly. 11/2, second of 8 in maiden at this C&D 21 days ago. Can do better again and merits plenty of respect. Clear C&D second last month; won't have to improve too much more to play a major role here.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/4 +57%) Aird	1.5 6/4(+57%)	(3) Aird 6/4, Fairly useful filly. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. 15/2, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at the Curragh (12f, good), faring best of those held up. Off 116 days. Makes polytrack debut. Definite player. Too keen last time; back from a break for AW debut and has run well fresh.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/2 -29%) Bloom Vega	4.5 9/2(-29%)	(7) Bloom Vega 9/2, Fairly useful filly. 5/2, respectable fifth of 11 in maiden at this course (10.7f) 12 days ago. Not discounted. Best form would give her prospects but this trip remains questionable.
4	11 4th (11) (10/1 -186%) Radar Ahead	10 10/1(-186%)	(11) Radar Ahead 10/1, Lightly-raced filly. Respectable third of 13 in maiden (7/2) at the Curragh (12f, soft) 57 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. First run for yard after leaving Joseph Patrick O'Brien. One to consider. Edges it on turf form for Joseph O'Brien, providing she handles the surface.

Can compete if none the worse for that recent incident. Faller over hurdles last Saturday; turf Flat form gives him a chance here if recovered.
9th	6 9th (6) (100/1 -25%) Jessie's Dreamgirl	100 100/1(-25%)	(6) Jessie's Dreamgirl 100/1, Once-raced mare. 80/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at this course (10.7f) on debut 33 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Started slowly and never looked like posing a threat on debut here last month; hooded now.

Sister to smart 1¼m-1¾m winner Win O'Clock and half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 9f Azraff. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Worth a market check. Newcomer likely all the better for the experience.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, first run since leaving Shane Crawley when thirteenth of 15 in maiden at Fairyhouse (12f, good to firm, 500/1). Off over 3 years. Hooded for 1st time. Nothing so far; hood now replaces cheekpieces.

INTHESMALLHOURS has shown more than enough to suggest she can land a maiden. There was plenty to like about her debut fifth over a shorter trip last month and she progressed to be beaten half a length into second over C&D. Aird has been mixing in some decent handicaps and could go well on her first go on an all-weather surface. The 80-rated Radar Ahead was placed in all five turf starts for Joseph O'Brien. She has switched to Tom McCourt and makes her Polytrack debut, so is an intriguing runner. Santa Princess showed marked improvement when third in a fillies' maiden over C&D and that form was franked when the runner-up landed a maiden at this track.

AIRD has had quite a few chances but, having shaped better than the result in handicap company at the Curragh last time, she's worth chancing to belatedly open her account. Radar Ahead has strong claims based on the pick of her efforts for Joseph O'Brien and Inthesmallhours is capable of better still.

Perhaps RADAR AHEAD can make an immediate repayment for connections following her recent purchase out of Joseph O'Brien's

1	6 1st (6) (6/1 +20%) Eighty Eight	6 6/1(+20%)	(6) Eighty Eight 6/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Good 2½ lengths second of 14 to Trishuli River in handicap at this C&D (5/1) 19 days ago, no match for winner. Each-way claims. Recent C&D second to Trishuli River; nice turn around in the weights so obvious claims.
2	3 2nd (3) (3/1 +50%) Beauparc	3 3/1(+50%)	(3) Beauparc 3/1, 7/2, creditable third of 14 in handicap at this C&D 61 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. C&D debut third in October reads well; shortlisted.
3	7 3rd (7) (4/1 -45%) Trishuli River	4 4/1(-45%)	(7) Trishuli River 4/1, Career best when winning 14-runner handicap (3/1) at this C&D 19 days ago by 2½ lengths from Eighty Eight, quickening clear. Should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick. Hat-trick seeker has to improve again to confirm form with Eighty Eight.
4	11 4th (11) (20/1 +0%) Beauty Bella	20 20/1(+0%)	(11) Beauty Bella 20/1, Course winner. 16/1 and hooded for 1st time, respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at this C&D 19 days ago. First run for yard after leaving John McConnell and she's opposable. Hasn't convinced over this trip of late and first start for new yard.
5th	14 5th (14) (66/1 -65%) Doctor Grace	66 66/1(-65%)	(14) Doctor Grace 66/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Navan in July. 16¾ lengths eleventh of 14 to Trishuli River in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 19 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. C&D winner but recent AW form well below best and hard to have confidence in.
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 -80%) Seti	18 18/1(-80%)	(8) Seti 18/1, Course winner. Creditable sixth of 14 in handicap (25/1) at this course (8f) 14 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Most recent effort over 1m more encouraging; back up in trip here with cheekpieces tried.
7th	9 7th (9) (10/1 -100%) Hurricane Helen	10 10/1(-100%)	(9) Hurricane Helen 10/1, Course winner. Latest win at Cork in August. Creditable second of 11 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 26 days ago. Merits consideration. Just denied over C&D last month so obvious contender off just 1lb higher.
8th	13 8th (13) (50/1 -52%) Nika Pika	50 50/1(-52%)	(13) Nika Pika 50/1, 11/1, bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, heavy) 72 days ago, finding less than looked likely. First run for yard after leaving Patrick Magee. Others preferred. Best run this year when second at Listowel in September; AW debut on first run for yard.
9th	1 9th (1) (10/1 -43%) Jazz Forever	10 10/1(-43%)	(1) Jazz Forever 10/1, C&D winner. 13/2, below form sixth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) 58 days ago. 11 lb higher now back up in trip and returned to the AW.

10th	5 10th (5) (66/1 -164%) Wrecking Ball Paul	66 66/1(-164%)	(5) Wrecking Ball Paul 66/1, C&D winner. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 66/1) 14 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and his mark is on the slide but he nevertheless has a bit to prove at present. Front-runner faded quite tamely last two starts here and remains opposable.
11th	2 11th (2) (14/1 -75%) Rock Etoile	14 14/1(-75%)	(2) Rock Etoile 14/1, Course winner. 3 wins from 14 runs this year, the latest here in November. Good second of 14 in handicap at this course (8f, 16/1) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip and he's one to consider. Best form at 1m, just held here a fortnight ago; unproven over this far..
12th	12 12th (12) (7/2 +50%) Dancing Steve	3.5 7/2(+50%)	(12) Dancing Steve 7/2, Winner at Tipperary in September. Creditable second of 10 in handicap (9/2) at this C&D 33 days ago. Likely to be on the premises. Solid C&D placed form of late; one to consider.

Off 104 days and he looks vulnerable. Too keen on yard debut at Clonmel in September and back from a break; others preferred.
14th	4 14th (4) (66/1 -100%) Star Mind	66 66/1(-100%)	(4) Star Mind 66/1, First run since leaving Jack Jones when thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, 12/1) 21 days ago. Significantly up in trip and she looks vulnerable. No show on yard debut here last month and now takes a big step up in distance.

A very tricky handicap. Trishuli River has been a revelation over this trip and is very much an in-form filly. The handicapper has given her a hike of 11lb rise in her bid for a hat-trick, but she is still respected. JAZZ FOREVER has an each-way chance. The last time he visited Dundalk he won over this trip in April and, with his jockey's claim factored in, he races off 1lb lower than that winning mark. Hurricane Helen just lost out by a neck over C&D last month and looks poised for another big run. Rock Etoile tries a new trip but has been in decent nick over 1m, while Beauparc, Eighty Eight and Dancing Steve will all have their supporters.

The vote goes to BEAUPARC, who was a solid third on her all-weather debut in a C&D handicap in October and a 3 lb rise for that effort is fair enough. Hurricane Helen is a much-respected main danger on the back of her near-miss here, while Rock Etoile is also respected, along with the hat-trick seeking Trishuli River.

Trishuli River renews rivalry here with Eighty Eight but the pair may have to give best to BEAUPARC

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.
