12:25 Fairyhouse 16f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (1/16 +91%) Place De La Nation	0.0625 1/16(+91%)	(1) Place De La Nation 1/16, Yard won this last year; benefitted from a drop in grade when winning a maiden hurdle at Thurles by 1 1/2l last time. Effective from 2m to 2m6f and acts on soft and good to soft ground. Should progress further and looks useful, worth stepping back up in class after running well in Triumph in spring. Last year's Triumph Hurdle fifth, a bit laboured at Clonmel; capable of raising her game.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/1 +0%) Shesakindofmagic	11 11/1(+0%)	(3) Shesakindofmagic 11/1, Outclassed when finishing down the field in the Coolmore NH Sires Luxembourg Mares I.N.H. Flat Race (Grade 2) at Leopardstown last time. Bumper winner previously. Trainer in form and returns from a long layoff, but plenty more required on hurdle debut. Promise in bumpers before tailed off in Grade 2 Leopardstown event, no hurdling experience.
3	4 3rd (4) (100/1 +60%) Talas Kera	100 100/1(+60%)	(4) Talas Kera 100/1, Ran to form but was well beaten in a 4yo bumper here last time; generally consistent in that sphere but faces a stiff task on hurdle debut. Ordinary form in bumpers, this looks much too demanding for her hurdling debut.
4	2 4th (2) (20/1 +39%) Moody Girl	20 20/1(+39%)	(2) Moody Girl 20/1, Made mistakes and ran below debut form when stepped up in trip, well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Tramore last time. Effective at 2m and acts with cut; needs to bounce back down in trip. Fair third over C&D on hurdling debut, appeared not to stay in a 2m5f Tramore maiden.

LTO Selection:

HIGHLAND CRYSTAL arrives unbeaten after comfortable wins at Punchestown and Newbury in a Listed Juvenile Hurdle, and off her low weight less Paddy Cleary's 7lb claim, she could land her hat-trick here. Willie Mullins' Triumph Hurdle fifth Place De La Nation is an obvious danger. She made a winning return at Thurles when staying on strongly over further but she could be tapped for toe over this distance, while bumper winner Shesakindofmagic is one to watch in the markets ahead of her hurdling bow.

Although PLACE DE LA NATION made heavy weather of things at Thurles, he can give the weight to the year-younger Highland Crystal

13:00 Fairyhouse 20f - 19 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
14	14 (14) (5/6 +49%) Spinningayarn	0.833333 5/6(+49%)	(14) Spinningayarn 5/6, Very promising debut when 4l third in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel last time; effective from 2m to 2m4f and handles soft and heavy ground; likely to progress further over hurdles. Point and bumper winner, can be expected to build on a satisfactory hurdles run at Clonmel.
16	16 (16) (3/1 +25%) Treasure Memory	3 3/1(+25%)	(16) Treasure Memory 3/1, Too much to do but shaped with promise when 5¼l third in a bumper at Punchestown last time; effective over 2m1f on yielding ground; interesting on bumper debut. Second in a point and a maiden hurdle, back hurdling with a good chance after a bumper run.
5	5 (5) (10/3 +0%) Emerald Poet	3.333333 10/3(+0%)	(5) Emerald Poet 10/3, Very promising debut when a one-length winner in a bumper at Plumpton; returning from a long layoff and needs to find a bit more. Beat a Dan Skelton-trained subsequent winner in a bumper at Plumpton, strong chance.
6	6 (6) (15/2 +32%) Good Deal	7.5 15/2(+32%)	(6) Good Deal 15/2, Made mistakes and ran below form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle here last time; returning from a long break. Effective from 2m to 2½m and handles cut; a threat if fit after the layoff. Course bumper winner, also second over hurdles here before unplaced favourite in April.
11	11 (11) (10/1 +38%) Reckless	10 10/1(+38%)	(11) Reckless 10/1, Outpaced but made a very promising debut when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle here last time; effective at 2m and handles cut; from a good yard and likely improver now stepped up in trip. Remote fifth behind a stablemate here in November, Spinningayarn is the yard's number one.
8	8 (8) (33/1 0%) Leni's Law	33 33/1(0%)	(8) Leni's Law 33/1, Getaway gelding. Dam a hurdles and chase winner. Likely to need this initial experience. Dam point/hurdle/chase winner and a sister to useful hurdle/chase winner Balbriggan.
12	12 (12) (40/1 0%) Rough 'n' Smooth	40 40/1(0%)	(12) Rough 'n' Smooth 40/1, Modest debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown on only start; looks one for the future. Faded from two out on debut at Punchestown, likely to need more experience.
10	10 (10) (50/1 +24%) Poet's Gale	50 50/1(+24%)	(10) Poet's Gale 50/1, Failed to build on debut and was well beaten in a 4yo bumper at Galway latest; off a short break and hard to fancy on hurdle debut. Two bumper runs, makes hurdling debut, trainer has a stronger candidate in Treasure Memory.
2	2 (2) (50/1 +38%) Better Times	50 50/1(+38%)	(2) Better Times 50/1, Far too free and found little when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Thurles last time; hood on for the first time. Yet to match point form under rules and has plenty to prove. Runner-up in a point, one fair bumper run, jumped badly and tailed off in a maiden hurdle.
4	4 (4) (100/1 -25%) Deise Crystal	100 100/1(-25%)	(4) Deise Crystal 100/1, £11,000 Crystal Ocean gelding; half-brother to Twilight Glory, poor at 24f though did win a chase; probably best watched. Plenty of stamina in the pedigree so the trip should be fine, likely to need experience.
9	9 (9) (125/1 +38%) Patsy's Pride	125 125/1(+38%)	(9) Patsy's Pride 125/1, Ran to form when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas last time; handles cut and should improve for a longer trip but needs to do so. Point-to-point winner last January, soundly beaten in two maiden hurdle outings.
15	15 (15) (150/1 -127%) Thatsmyroadie	150 150/1(-127%)	(15) Thatsmyroadie 150/1, Elusive Pimpernel gelding; hood applied for the first time. Dam a moderate staying chaser; up against it on debut. Locally-trained gelding is the first foal out of a winning chaser who stayed well, hooded.
7	7 (7) (200/1 +0%) Jesse James Howard	200 200/1(+0%)	(7) Jesse James Howard 200/1, 5,500 euros Cokoriko gelding; half brother to hurdles winner in France; probably best watched. Half-brother to a French hurdle winner, dam French maiden Flat/jumps, best watched.
13	13 (13) (200/1 -506%) Royal Soldier	200 200/1(-506%)	(13) Royal Soldier 200/1, Modest debut when comfortably held in a bumper at Navan last time; faces a stiff task on hurdle debut. Pulled up in a point, remote fifth in a bumper, unlikely to feature on hurdles debut.
18	18 (18) (200/1 -150%) Gangster Granny	200 200/1(-150%)	(18) Gangster Granny 200/1, Raced lazily, showed greenness and made mistakes when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Thurles latest; effective at 2m. Multiple flat winner who may do better over hurdles in handicaps. Two Flat wins for Jessica Harrington, has hurdling experience, may need a handicap mark.
19	19 (19) (250/1 -150%) Walk In The Clouds	250 250/1(-150%)	(19) Walk In The Clouds 250/1, Never threatened on modest debut when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas last time; longer trip should suit but plenty to prove. Won a two-finisher point, early faller on hurdling debut, tailed off on second attempt.
17	17 (17) (250/1 -25%) Clash Gold	250 250/1(-25%)	(17) Clash Gold 250/1, Failed to build on debut when well beaten in a bumper at Navan latest; has plenty to find. Fair bumper run last season on debut, tailed off at Navan last month on reappearance.
1	1 (1) (300/1 -50%) Any Chance	300 300/1(-50%)	(1) Any Chance 300/1, Modest debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown on only start; likely to need more time. Three-figure odds when posing no threat first time out at Punchestown, one to rule out.
3	3 (3) (300/1 -50%) Danny The Champ	300 300/1(-50%)	(3) Danny The Champ 300/1, Outpaced and below form when down in trip and finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Navan last time; effective over 2½m but this may be a sharp enough test. Mid-field in two maiden hurdle outings, will probably need to get a handicap mark.

LTO Selection:

With very little form to work with the vote goes to EMERALD POET, a Plumpton bumper winner for Willie Mullins who remains unexposed ahead of his hurdling debut. The runner-up and third have won since to frank the form, and after staying on well at the Sussex track, the extra yardage here may prove ideal. Clonmel third Spinningayarn can chase him home for the in-form Gordon Elliott with the better ground in his favour, while Treasure Memory could hit a top three finish once again.

The form of the Elliott stable is persuasive enough to give preference to SPINNINGAYARN over Treasure Memory and Emerald Poet

13:00 Fairyhouse 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

13:35 Fairyhouse 20f - 24 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
18	18 (18) (7/2 +65%) Midleton Rare	3.5 7/2(+65%)	(18) Midleton Rare 7/2, Won by 2l off 8lb lower at Limerick in October. Ran to form when ninth beaten 14l off 93 last time. Significant jockey booking; effective 2 1/2m with cut and remains well treated on bumper form. Makes a quick reappearance after unplaced Limerick run, better judged on Navan third.
22	22 (22) (7/2 +42%) Teds Corner	3.5 7/2(+42%)	(22) Teds Corner 7/2, Ran to form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective at 2m on yielding ground; yet to match promising debut but in fair form. Good chance based on his third placing here in November, appeared not to stay 3m on latest.
3	3 (3) (7/1 +13%) Dollar Nolimit	7 7/1(+13%)	(3) Dollar Nolimit 7/1, Needed the run and ran well to a point when fourth beaten 18l in a handicap hurdle here last time. Effective 2-2 1/2m on heavy or yielding ground. Well treated on past efforts but must prove ability remains after a layoff. Shaped well after a long absence when fourth over 2m here on stable debut, definite chance.
6	6 (6) (10/1 -25%) Watching The Clock	10 10/1(-25%)	(6) Watching The Clock 10/1, Won by 3 1/2l off 11lb lower at Gowran Park three starts back. Ran to form when fourth beaten 11l off 104 last time, having too much to do. Effective 2-2 1/2m on good and soft ground; progressing and has more to come. Won at Gowran on handicap debut, two fourth placings since then, needs to raise her game.
21	21 (21) (11/1 +8%) Spanish John	11 11/1(+8%)	(21) Spanish John 11/1, Won by 4l off 31lb lower at Bellewstown in October and ran to form when second beaten 3 1/4l off 86 last time. Effective 12f on the flat and 2m-2m4f over hurdles; acts on any ground and remains in good form. Two Flat wins, 1-17 over hurdles, last month's Clonmel second suggests he can go close.
20	20 (20) (12/1 +0%) Alright Darling	12 12/1(+0%)	(20) Alright Darling 12/1, Improved back up in trip when landing a handicap by 4 1/2l off 8lb lower at Tramore last time. Effective 2 1/2-3m; consistent at a modest level, track suits and should remain competitive. Fortunate winner at Thurles in October, no doubt about the merit of Tramore win, respected.
13	13 (13) (12/1 +52%) Nelsons Dawn	12 12/1(+52%)	(13) Nelsons Dawn 12/1, Yard won this last year. Flattened out after a late error at a stiff track when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Navan last time. Effective at 2m on soft ground; inconsistent so far. Would have finished closer at Navan but for a bad mistake at the last, each-way chance.
14	14 (14) (14/1 -40%) Classy Cc	14 14/1(-40%)	(14) Classy Cc 14/1, Returned to form in first-time cheekpieces when third beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m on good ground; not entirely reliable to build on latest run. Fair third in a small-field handicap last time, will need to raise her game to feature.
15	15 (15) (14/1 0%) Leah's Contessa	14 14/1(0%)	(15) Leah's Contessa 14/1, Below form up in class when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time. Effective over 2 1/2m and prefers soft ground. Out of form. Not much merit in this season's form but worth noting she won a C&D maiden last January.
23	23 (23) (16/1 +11%) Johnny Cakes	16 16/1(+11%)	(23) Johnny Cakes 16/1, Had too much to do behind the all-the-way winner when fourth beaten 17l in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective 2 1/2-3m on heavy and good ground; generally in good form. Only one win from 18 starts over hurdles, mild encouragement from recent Punchestown run.
5	5 (5) (18/1 +28%) Oneforgonzo	18 18/1(+28%)	(5) Oneforgonzo 18/1, Made mistakes and ran below form when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Wears cheekpieces for the first time. Effective at 3m and handles cut in the ground; was in form before latest run. Wins were gained back-to-back in April 2024, cheekpieces tried after moderate Limerick run.
19	19 (19) (25/1 -25%) Another Girl	25 25/1(-25%)	(19) Another Girl 25/1, Every chance but found little when well beaten in a handicap hurdle here last time. Consistent at 2-2 1/2m on good ground but may struggle on winter conditions. Beaten over 20l in seventh over C&D last time, chance based on Gowran second in October.
2	2 (2) (28/1 -180%) The Guinness Boys	28 28/1(-180%)	(2) The Guinness Boys 28/1, Ran below form when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Tramore last time. Effective at 2m on yielding and good ground. Capable of better for a good yard now back in handicaps. Ordinary maiden form, worth a market check now that he steps up in trip for handicap debut.
1	1 (1) (33/1 -175%) Insouciant Dallier	33 33/1(-175%)	(1) Insouciant Dallier 33/1, Rallied gamely to return to form when winning a maiden hurdle at Sligo by 3/4l last time. Off a short break and effective over 2 1/2-3m on soft and good ground. Inconsistent but could be well treated back in a handicap. Had this rider aboard when winning a Sligo maiden on yard debut, could be on the upgrade.
7	7 (7) (33/1 -136%) Fedneys Park	33 33/1(-136%)	(7) Fedneys Park 33/1, Below form down the field in a maiden hurdle at Navan last time. Effective around 3m in points and handles soft ground. May improve for the step up in trip on handicap debut but needs to show it. Point winner, most recent maiden outing was poor, up in trip now, may find his level.
11	11 (11) (33/1 -65%) Queen Nel	33 33/1(-65%)	(11) Queen Nel 33/1, Outpaced and possibly found the ground too quick when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and suited by cut; was in form until latest. Ran well over C&D in April considering she made mistakes and finished lame, off since June.
8	8 (8) (40/1 -60%) Mi Lucky Cailin	40 40/1(-60%)	(8) Mi Lucky Cailin 40/1, Made too much use of when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time. Effective over 2-2 1/2m and had been consistent prior to that effort. Bumper winner, 0-14 over hurdles, runner-up four times, place chance at best.
12	12 (12) (50/1 -100%) Arabian King	50 50/1(-100%)	(12) Arabian King 50/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Thurles last time. Trainer in form. Returning from a long layoff; effective 2 1/2-3m on good ground. Likely to need this run. Best known as a four-time AW winner, 1-17 over hurdles, no recent form, has changed stable.
16	16 (16) (50/1 -52%) Schiehallion	50 50/1(-52%)	(16) Schiehallion 50/1, Fell early in a handicap hurdle here last time. Suited by 3m on a sound surface. Generally consistent maiden but may struggle if rain arrives. 16-race maiden, stays well enough but hard to be confident about his prospects.
24	24 (24) (50/1 -52%) Shanroe Nancy	50 50/1(-52%)	(24) Shanroe Nancy 50/1, Perhaps not suited by the ground when down the field in a handicap hurdle here last time, despite market support. Returning from a long layoff; effective 2m on good ground but yet to prove up to this mark. Down the field in two handicap outings over C&D last season, needs massive improvement.
4	4 (4) (66/1 -100%) Mon Coeur	66 66/1(-100%)	(4) Mon Coeur 66/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle here last time. Effective at 2m on good ground. Fairly treated on flat form but has a bit to prove over hurdles. Bumper and Flat winner, getting on in years, pulled up on his most recent hurdles outing.
10	10 (10) (66/1 -32%) Lady Bluebird	66 66/1(-32%)	(10) Lady Bluebird 66/1, Needed the run when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Navan last time. Effective at 2 1/2m but currently out of form. Nothing in her four 2025 starts encourages support, down the field at Navan last month.
25	25 (25) (80/1 -400%) Venturevango	80 80/1(-400%)	(25) Venturevango 80/1, Poor run down the field in a maiden hurdle here last time. Wears cheekpieces for the first time; has yet to show any worthwhile form and likely needs more time. Weak form in maidens, perhaps some chance she will find her level now, cheekpieces added.
17	17 (17) (100/1 -52%) Buckaway Freddie	100 100/1(-52%)	(17) Buckaway Freddie 100/1, Needed the run when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time. Off a short break; effective at 2m on soft ground but struggling in handicaps. Placed in a small-field bumper, has struggled in three starts since joining this stable.

LTO Selection:

Midleton Rare won a bumper here in 2023 and has scored once since over hurdles at Limerick. If he reacts positively to first-time cheekpieces, he could mount a challenge. Connections persevere with Dollar Nolimit who had his first run in 23 months when fourth over 2m here recently. He could go well with that run under his belt, but Sligo maiden hurdle winner INSOUCIANT DALLIER might be the one. He had something in hand that day and an added 4lb may not be enough to stop him.

It may be worth taking a chance NELSONS DAWN who had run a pleasing race up to the point of a last-flight blunder at Navan

14:10 Fairyhouse 26f - 17 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
13	13 (13) (9/4 +36%) Hitthehayson	2.25 9/4(+36%)	(13) Hitthehayson 9/4, Improved when suited by a positive ride down in trip, aided by a late faller, landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 9lb higher mark at Haydock last time; effective up to 2m5f, acts on good and yielding ground; thrown in on chase form; can continue progress. 4-5 since joining this yard; back hurdling off 15lb lower mark than over fences.
10	10 (10) (5/1 +9%) Lough Nigara	5 5/1(+9%)	(10) Lough Nigara 5/1, Rallied gamely and ran to form when beaten 2 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark here last time; usually held up; effective over 3m and acts on any ground; consistent. Good recent runs here over 3m put him firmly in the mix despite higher mark.
1	1 (1) (6/1 +14%) The Miracle Man	6 6/1(+14%)	(1) The Miracle Man 6/1, Returned to form when second, beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Navan last time; effective from 2 1/2m to 3m, acts on yielding and good ground; generally consistent. Recent Navan second drops in grade and has to considered a major player.
12	12 (12) (6/1 +33%) Great Bird	6 6/1(+33%)	(12) Great Bird 6/1, Ran to form when beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle at Tramore last time; in good form prior; effective from 2 1/2m to 2 3/4m; progressing since going handicapping. Soft ground may not have suited at Tramore; return to better ground to suit.
2	2 (2) (7/1 +13%) Jukebox Johnny	7 7/1(+13%)	(2) Jukebox Johnny 7/1, Ran to form when fourth, beaten 10l in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time; effective between 2m and 2 1/2m, acts with cut; could do better in handicaps. Encouraging Cork handicap debut and could have more to offer now upped further in trip.
16	16 (16) (10/1 +29%) Marine Ranger	10 10/1(+29%)	(16) Marine Ranger 10/1, Ran to form when 16l third in a handicap hurdle here most recently; effective from 2m to 2 1/2m; needs to build on that latest effort. Recent third here over 2m4f suggests this longer trip could suit.
9	9 (9) (18/1 -29%) Ballyglass Beauty	18 18/1(-29%)	(9) Ballyglass Beauty 18/1, Probably booked for midfield when coming down over 3m at Cork last time; suited by 3m and generally consistent; on a reasonable mark. Winless in over two years but down to decent mark and recent form encouraging.
7	7 (7) (18/1 +0%) Matter Of Opinion	18 18/1(+0%)	(7) Matter Of Opinion 18/1, Ran to form though well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective around 2 1/2m, acts on good ground, unproven with cut; struggling in handicaps. Placed in bumpers but 0-7 hurdling and opening handicap efforts don't inspire confidence.
8	8 (8) (20/1 -82%) Pictures Of Home	20 20/1(-82%)	(8) Pictures Of Home 20/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Punchestown last time; course winner over just shy of 3m; wears cheekpieces for the first time; off a long absence and has a bit to find. Long absent but booking of Jack Kennedy certainly takes the eye.
6	6 (6) (25/1 +0%) Sights Unseen	25 25/1(+0%)	(6) Sights Unseen 25/1, May have found the ground too testing when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Navan latest; effective around 2 1/2m, acts on yielding and good ground; mark demands more. Heavy ground at Navan didn't suit but return to better ground could see improved showing.
17	17 (17) (28/1 -40%) He Fitz In	28 28/1(-40%)	(17) He Fitz In 28/1, Made mistakes and did not find much when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown latest; stays 3m well, acts on good but prefers some give; inconsistent recently. Mixing disciplines of late to no great effect; 1lb wrong and opposable.
4	4 (4) (33/1 -106%) Glenmalure Lady	33 33/1(-106%)	(4) Glenmalure Lady 33/1, Set it up for a useful rival when 17l third in a maiden hurdle at Thurles last time; effective between 2 1/2m and 3m; opening mark looks lenient and should be winning soon. Unexposed on handicap hurdle debut after just three runs, showing promise each time.
3	3 (3) (33/1 -32%) West Is Awake	33 33/1(-32%)	(3) West Is Awake 33/1, Continued out of form when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork most recently; returning from a long layoff; effective from 2 1/2m to 3m. Out of form this season, hard to fancy despite declining mark.
11	11 (11) (40/1 -21%) Rajsalad	40 40/1(-21%)	(11) Rajsalad 40/1, Needed the run when down the field in a handicap hurdle here most recently; effective up to 3m, acts on soft ground; yet to prove ability remains after a layoff. Hasn't added to his maiden win nearly four years ago; recent 2m4f efforts here poor.
14	14 (14) (40/1 -21%) A Year Older	40 40/1(-21%)	(14) A Year Older 40/1, Below form when stepped up in trip and well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time; returning from a long layoff and yet to show anything of note. Now 0-7 hurdling, absent since well held in midfield at Limerick in March; best watched.
5	5 (5) (50/1 -79%) Lord Lariat	50 50/1(-79%)	(5) Lord Lariat 50/1, Made too much use of when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Navan most recent; returning from a break; effective beyond 3m; regressive profile. Without a win since landing the 2022 Irish Grand National; probably best watched for now.
18	18 (18) (125/1 -279%) Mustameet Secret	125 125/1(-279%)	(18) Mustameet Secret 125/1, Pulled up in a conditions race at Castletown-Geoghegan last time; wears blinkers for the first time; off a short break; regressive profile. 9yo maiden pulled up in a point-to-point on October return; impossible to make a case for.

LTO Selection:

HITTHEHAYSON won a handicap chase at Haydock on his most recent outing off a rating of 100, his fourth win from his last five starts, and the seven-year-old is hard to oppose back over hurdles off a 9lb lower mark. Lough Nigara's second here in November suggests that he could prove to be the main threat, although The Miracle Man and Jukebox Johnny should not be discounted.

Hard to look beyond HITTHEHAYSON who has been in tremendous form since joining Ian Donoghue and still looks well treated over hurdles

2	2 (2) (1/4 +44%) Dinoblue	0.25 1/4(+44%)	(2) Dinoblue 1/4, Yard won this race last year; made mistakes but travelled well and flattened out up the hill after a break when second, beaten 5l, in the Fortria Chase (Grade 2) at Navan last time; effective from 2m to 2 1/2m; generally consistent and sets the form standard as a Grade 1 winner. Fortria second a bit below best but remains the standout of this quartet.
4	4 (4) (6/1 +20%) Look To The West	6 6/1(+20%)	(4) Look To The West 6/1, Not clear run but won readily, showing marked improvement from debut under a stronger ride when landing a beginners' chase at Kilbeggan by 3 1/2l last time; effective at 2 1/2m and handles cut; progressive and worth a step up in class. Almost certainly has more to offer this season but this looks a stiff ask on return.
3	3 (3) (13/2 +7%) Shecouldbeanything	6.5 13/2(+7%)	(3) Shecouldbeanything 13/2, Yard has won two of the last five renewals; pulled up in the Kerry National (Grade 3) at Listowel last time; top jockey back on board; effective around 2 1/2m and prefers decent ground; generally consistent but can race lazily. Amiss at Listowel; back from a break with questions to answer.

LTO Selection:

14:45 Fairyhouse (Class 1) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

It is hard to oppose DINOBLUE, who has a good record when against her own sex over fences. The winner of the Mares' Chase at Cheltenham last March, the nine-year-old should only improve for her seasonal return in the Fortria. Look To The West is a lightly-raced eight-year-old and she has to be respected on her return, having won well at Kilbeggan when last seen in April. Bioluminescence has some questions to answer right now but edges out Shecouldbeanything to be best of the rest.

This looks a nice step on road to defending her crown at Cheltenham for DINOBLUE, the only slight concern being the trip

Info	Form	Odds
6	6 (6) (4/6 -18%) Kaid D'authie	0.666667 4/6(-18%)	(6) Kaid D'authie 4/6, Ran to form on his chase debut when second, beaten 1¼l, by a stablemate in a beginners' chase at Punchestown. Effective around 2½m and handles softer ground; has more to come over fences and debut form has been franked at the top level; tough to beat. Fine start to his chasing career at Punchestown, form franked by the winner at Kempton.
9	9 (9) (9/4 -13%) Wingmen	2.25 9/4(-13%)	(9) Wingmen 9/4, Made mistakes and was unable to dominate when finishing third, beaten 12l, in a beginners' chase at Navan. Enjoys forcing the pace; effective around 2½m and acts on any ground, though not the most straightforward. No match for the smart Final Demand at Navan, a shade disappointing at same venue since.
5	5 (5) (5/1 +38%) Joystick	5 5/1(+38%)	(5) Joystick 5/1, Ran to form when fourth, beaten 24l, in a beginners' chase here on his return from a break. Effective from 2m to 2½m and handles ground with cut; should come on for that reappearance. In front of Beckett Rock on chase debut, unlikely to match stablemate Kaid D'Authie.
2	2 (2) (18/1 -13%) Beckett Rock	18 18/1(-13%)	(2) Beckett Rock 18/1, Outpaced but improved from his debut when comfortably held in a beginners' chase here last time. Effective from 2m to 2½m and may need more time to progress over fences. Very disappointing on chase debut, beaten 40l in a strong contest here on second attempt.
3	3 (3) (20/1 -25%) Dr Eggman	20 20/1(-25%)	(3) Dr Eggman 20/1, Keen and made mistakes when needing the run on his chase debut, well beaten in a beginners' chase here. Effective around 2½m and acts on any ground; capable of better than that initial effort. 133-rated hurdler, in rear at this venue on chasing debut, stable has stronger candidates.
4	4 (4) (33/1 +18%) Fishery Lane	33 33/1(+18%)	(4) Fishery Lane 33/1, Fell before race developed in a beginners' chase at Punchestown last time. Effective at about 2½m; from a top yard but yet to find his form over fences. Course maiden hurdle winner, may need a confidence boost after a heavy fall at Punchestown.
7	7 (7) (33/1 +18%) Lucky Lyreen	33 33/1(+18%)	(7) Lucky Lyreen 33/1, Outclassed when finishing down the field in a beginners' chase here most recently. Effective from 2½m to 3m; may need more time and further to progress over fences. Useful hurdler, nothing of note over fences yet, not in the same league as yard's Wingmen.
8	8 (8) (100/1 +0%) So They Tell Me	100 100/1(+0%)	(8) So They Tell Me 100/1, Outpaced and not knocked about when unsuited by a drop in trip, finishing well beaten in a beginners' chase at Clonmel last time. Effective around 3m; may do better in handicaps with more experience. Hurdles winner at a modest level, could make a handicap candidate with more experience.

LTO Selection:

KAID D'AUTHIE left a good impression when finishing the close second at Punchestown on his chasing bow. The six-year-old can be marked up for that effort, given he found only his stablemate and subsequent Kauto Star winner Kitzbuhel too good, and he looks another smart prospect for Willie Mullins. Useful over timber, Wingmen has placed at Navan on both starts over fences. He could prove the main danger to the selection, ahead of Joystick.

Willie Mullins has won this with an odds-on shot in four consecutive years. He seems to have the solution again with KAID D'AUTHIE

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 (1) (5/6 +0%) Early Dawning	0.833333 5/6(+0%)	(1) Early Dawning 5/6, Showed plenty of promise on debut when third, beaten 2l in a bumper here after possibly hitting the front too soon. Returns from a long layoff; effective over 2m and handles cut. Debut form has been franked at Graded level over hurdles and should progress. Plenty green on debut when third in C&D sales bumper in April; top amateur takes over now.
4	4 (4) (3/1 +25%) Seven Towers	3 3/1(+25%)	(4) Seven Towers 3/1, Made a promising start when runner-up, beaten 2l in a maiden at Loughbrickland on only run. Returns from a long layoff and has joined a top stable which can get them ready first time; of interest. Points' runner-up has joined top yard and market should be informative on rules debut.
6	6 (6) (3/1 -33%) With Nolimit	3 3/1(-33%)	(6) With Nolimit 3/1, Very promising debut when fourth, beaten 13l in a bumper at Navan last time. From a top yard and a point winner who looks the type to win a bumper soon. Testing ground may not have suited at Navan, possible improver on this better ground.
5	5 (5) (16/1 +52%) Some See Stars	16 16/1(+52%)	(5) Some See Stars 16/1, Keen and showed slight improvement for debut experience when well beaten in an auction bumper at Naas last time. Effective over 2m and handles heavy ground. Progressing but more improvement needed to get off the mark. Never counted in midfield under today's rider at Naas last month; may need more time.
2	2 (2) (28/1 -27%) Home By The Sea	28 28/1(-27%)	(2) Home By The Sea 28/1, 1,200 euros Affinisea gelding, half-brother to Rockonmolly who was poor at 20f; dam was moderate at 7f. Probably best watched on debut. Bought for small money as a yearling; market best guide on debut.

LTO Selection:

Gordon Elliott and Harry Swan have teamed up to win two of the last three renewals, so a much improved effort from Navan fourth With Nolimit would be no surprise. However, EARLY DAWNING finished a creditable third over C&D to the useful I'm Slippy and he looks one to keep on the right side of with Patrick Mullins taking over the reins. A runner-up between the flags, Seven Towers is also worthy of a second glance.

With Nolimit could improve for this better ground but C&D third EARLY DAWNING is preferred now with Patrick Mullins aboard
