2	2 2nd (2) (10/3 -33%) Kish Bank	3.333333 10/3(-33%)	(2) Kish Bank 10/3, Bumper winner who left hurdling debut form when second of 10 in 2m maiden at Gowran (soft) 30 days ago. Open to further improvement and another bold show likely. Headed inside final furlong when 2nd at Gowran in the mud last month; major player.
3	7 3rd (7) (18/1 -157%) Watchful Protector	18 18/1(-157%)	(7) Watchful Protector 18/1, Showed clear ability when third of 6 in bumper at Limerick (16f, heavy) on NH debut 25 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Ran well when third in Limerick bumper last month, looking in need of a sterner test.
4	4 4th (4) (8/11 +55%) De Temps En Temps	0.727273 8/11(+55%)	(4) De Temps En Temps 8/11, Runner-up on Listowel hurdle debut prior to going one better in 9-runner C&D bumper (good to soft) 42 days ago. Open to improvement. Rattled home from off the pace to win Fairyhouse bumper; holds Supreme Novices' entry.
5th	12 5th (12) (250/1 -25%) Johanna'sjean	250 250/1(-25%)	(12) Johanna'sjean 250/1, Well held both starts in maiden hurdles. Jumping was ragged when down the field in maiden hurdles at this venue; hard to fancy.
6th	9 6th (9) (18/1 -29%) Arch Hall	18 18/1(-29%)	(9) Arch Hall 18/1, Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when sixth of 14 in maiden hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) 25 days ago. Regressed after initial promise, beaten 55l at Limerick latest; needs to up his game.
7th	11 7th (11) (250/1 -25%) Annie Button	250 250/1(-25%)	(11) Annie Button 250/1, Well held in bumper/maiden hurdle. Out with the washing in a bumper and over hurdles around here; stick a line through her.
8th	6 8th (6) (250/1 -67%) Tennesse Boy	250 250/1(-67%)	(6) Tennesse Boy 250/1, 300/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Naas (16f, heavy) on NH debut 48 days ago, pulled up before 4 out. Sent off rank 300-1 outsider on debut at Gowran and was pulled up; impossible to recommend.
9th	8 9th (8) (80/1 -142%) Hay Baby	80 80/1(-142%)	(8) Hay Baby 80/1, Winning pointer at third attempt but ran to only a modest level when last of 7 in novice at Naas (18.5f, good to soft, 66/1) on NH debut 14 days ago. Failed to make an impression when tailed off at Naas on her rules debut a fortnight ago.
10	10 \|F\| (10) (8/1 -60%) Ufouria	8 8/1(-60%)	(10) Ufouria 8/1, Made it fourth time lucky in bumpers in 16-runner event at Cork (16f, soft) 36 days ago, driven clear. Makes hurdle bow. Bolted up in Cork bumper latest; holds Mares' Novices' entry; respected on hurdles bow.
10th	5 10th (5) (33/1 -65%) Reliable Prince	33 33/1(-65%)	(5) Reliable Prince 33/1, Sent off 33/1 but showed an aptitude for hurdling when fourth of 10 in novice hurdle at Gowran (16f, soft) on NH debut 30 days ago. May build on that. Outran debut odds of 33-1 when fourth behind Kish Bank on debut at Gowran; could improve.
11th	3 11th (3) (14/1 -56%) Quality Control	14 14/1(-56%)	(3) Quality Control 14/1, €30,000 3-y-o, Sholokhov gelding.

DE TEMPS EN TEMPS really found his stride in the latter stages of a bumper at this racetrack and actually won going away. This is his second run over hurdles and there should be plenty of improvement to come from him. He holds an entry in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Ufouria is one to note on hurdling debut after a six-length victory in a mares' bumper at Cork last month. She receives plenty of weight from her main rivals. Gordon Elliott's Kish Bank gave best in second on the run-in at Gowran Park and that was a solid effort. Elliott's supposed second-string Quality Control and Watchful Protector, who was third in a Limerick bumper, look best of the rest.

KISH BANK stepped up appreciably on his hurdling debut form when second at Gowran the previous month and is selected to go one better with further improvement on the cards. De Temps En Temps is feared most ahead of newcomer Quality Control.

KISH BANK was only nabbed in the closing stages over this trip at Gowran on latest and is tipped to come out on top

13:05 Fairyhouse Maiden Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

13:40 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 16f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (9/1 -29%) Maxios Prime	9 9/1(-29%)	(7) Maxios Prime 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, fell in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (17.2f, good to soft) 58 days ago (would've been placed at least had she stayed on all fours). Open to improvement. Running well when faller at Down Royal; not one to rule out back against her peers.
2	5 2nd (5) (10/3 -90%) Janes Harbour	3.333333 10/3(-90%)	(5) Janes Harbour 10/3, Promising type. Third of 7 in juvenile hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, good to soft, 7/2) 112 days ago, not knocked about. Hood back on and first-time tongue enlisted for this handicap debut. Denied clear run at Down Royal; big player given better luck in running.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 +60%) Butter Fingers	4 4/1(+60%)	(1) Butter Fingers 4/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. 14/1, fourth of 6 in novice hurdle at this C&D (soft) 17 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Safely held the last twice over C&D; more needed on handicap debut.
4	4 4th (4) (11/4 +58%) Lakota Blue	2.75 11/4(+58%)	(4) Lakota Blue 11/4, 5/2 and blinkered for 1st time, fourth of 6 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, heavy) 26 days ago, finding little. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Initial maiden promise not materialising; down in grade but questions to answer.
5th	2 5th (2) (6/1 -50%) Chortal	6 6/1(-50%)	(2) Chortal 6/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Fifth of 14 in juvenile hurdle (14/1) at Punchestown (16.4f, soft) 40 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Encouraging C&D hurdles debut but hasn't built on that; may want better ground.
6th	6 6th (6) (22/1 +33%) Set The Tone	22 22/1(+33%)	(6) Set The Tone 22/1, Thirteenth of 16 in juvenile hurdle (100/1) at Limerick (16f, soft) 58 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time for this handicap debut. Others more persuasive. Early promise on better ground, poor recent form on softer ground raises questions.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (11/2 +8%) Kaptain Bay	5.5 11/2(+8%)	(3) Kaptain Bay 11/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fifth of 21 in juvenile hurdle (15/2) at Punchestown (16.7f, soft) 91 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Opening hurdles promise on good ground; back from a break and soft ground a concern.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

KAPTAIN BAY has had four spins over hurdles which have yielded two placed finishes at Ballinrobe. He was last seen coming home fifth in a big field at Punchestown and that form is working out well. Janes Harbour returns to action after finishing third at Cork in October and at Down Royal in November. She doesn't look badly weighted, however, slower ground is an unknown for her. Chortal looks the pick of Gordon Elliott's pair based on jockey bookings, while Maxios Prime was running a vastly-improved race when departing at the final flight at Down Royal. Butter Fingers isn't out of it, but his best form is on better ground.

With the likelihood of improvement now going down the handicap route, JANES HARBOUR looks the way to go. Maxios Prime held every chance when exiting late on at Down Royal last time and, provided that she is none the worse for that tumble, a bold show could be on the way. Chortal could be the pick of the Gordon Elliott-trained duo and he also enters calculations.

Unlucky at Down Royal, JANES HARBOUR could well have more to offer and gets the vote

13:40 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:15 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 20f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (9/1 -13%) Barry Lyndon	9 9/1(-13%)	(7) Barry Lyndon 9/1, Latest win in hurdle at Bellewstown in August. Creditable sixth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Navan (20f, soft, 14/1) 35 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Couple of good efforts in big-field handicaps of late but soft ground would be a concern.
2	1 2nd (1) (20/1 +0%) Beckett Rock	20 20/1(+0%)	(1) Beckett Rock 20/1, Much improved when making it 2 wins from first 3 starts in minor event hurdle at Clonmel (17f) on penultimate start. Never figured when fifteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft) 20 days ago but this rates less demanding at least. Couldn't deal with opening mark of 136 on handicap debut at Leopardstown so jury is out.
3	10 3rd (10) (6/1 -20%) Slane Hill	6 6/1(-20%)	(10) Slane Hill 6/1, Latest win in hurdle at Navan in November. Creditable fifth of 20 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Leopardstown (19.8f, good) 55 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Excellent fifth of 20 at Leopardstown after being slowly away; big player from same mark.
4	9 4th (9) (14/1 -40%) Prends Garde A Toi	14 14/1(-40%)	(9) Prends Garde A Toi 14/1, 25/1, 12¾ lengths fifth of 6 to The Big Westerner in Gr 2 hurdle at Limerick (23f, soft) 58 days ago. Stable in good form and return to handicaps now should see him in a better light. Yard also saddle Sporting Glory. Below form in graded and handicap events since Downpatrick win; needs to improve.
5th	2 5th (2) (18/1 +64%) Whatcouldhavebeen	18 18/1(+64%)	(2) Whatcouldhavebeen 18/1, Course winner. 80/1, offered little returning from 6 months off when seventeenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Navan (20f, soft) 35 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Has work to do. 7lb higher than last April's win here and was always detached at Navan last time out.
6th	3 6th (3) (9/1 +55%) Shadow Rider	9 9/1(+55%)	(3) Shadow Rider 9/1, Course winner. Creditable eighth of 19 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Navan (20f, soft) 35 days ago. Others more persuasive. 21l winner of this race last year; 9lb higher but contender if he can recapture that form.
7th	8 7th (8) (22/1 -10%) Donnie Devito	22 22/1(-10%)	(8) Donnie Devito 22/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this season. Eighteenth of 25 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Leopardstown (24.1f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Hood back on and he ought to find this a little less demanding. Maiden hurdle winner at Punchestown in the summer but both wins have been on good ground.
8th	16 8th (16) (12/1 +14%) Attaboyarchie	12 12/1(+14%)	(16) Attaboyarchie 12/1, Remains a maiden after 17 NH runs. Fifth of 7 in novice hurdle at Naas (18.5f, good to soft, 9/1) 14 days ago. Return to handicaps in his favour but others appeal more for win purposes. Cut out most of the running when 5th over inadequate 18.5f here latest; others appeal more.
9th	13 9th (13) (20/1 -43%) Thornleigh Frank	20 20/1(-43%)	(13) Thornleigh Frank 20/1, Rapid improver during summer of 2023, bringing up the hat-trick in handicaps when grabbing a share of the spoils in 20-runner contest at Galway (22f). However, seemingly not been the easiest to train given his subsequent absence and the betting can guide on this belated return. Hood on 1st time. Had his issues as he's been off the track 570 days so a watching brief is advised; hooded.
14	14 \|F\| (14) (8/1 -129%) Dancing Jeremy	8 8/1(-129%)	(14) Dancing Jeremy 8/1, 1 win from 2 runs this season. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap chase at Limerick (19.4f, soft, 8/1) 56 days ago, well on top finish. Not taken lightly returned to hurdling. Won't get such an easy lead here but he's potentially well treated back over hurdles.
10th	5 10th (5) (17/2 +58%) No Looking Back	8.5 17/2(+58%)	(5) No Looking Back 17/2, 8/1, respectable tenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Navan (20f, soft) 35 days ago, ridden before 2 out and one paced. Too soon to be writing him off in handicaps and he could be sharper with that under his belt. Good run behind Brighterdaysahead in the Morgiana but didn't run well on handicap debut.
11th	6 11th (6) (15/2 +0%) Sporting Glory	7.5 15/2(+0%)	(6) Sporting Glory 15/2, Bumper winner who cemented positive start for Gordon Elliott when third in a Thurles novice (22.4f) in January. Best excused subsequent run in Grade 1 company at Leopardstown 21 days ago and he remains with potential now handicapping. Shortlisted. Out of his depth in Grade 1 at Leopardstown but could be thrown in off 130 on handicap bow.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (4/1 +43%) Glen Kiln	4 4/1(+43%)	(12) Glen Kiln 4/1, Latest win in hurdle at Navan in December. Creditable eighth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (24.1f, good to soft, 10/1) 21 days ago. Drop back in trip a plus on that evidence and he's of interest again. Ran very well in tough Leopardstown handicap latest; drop in trip will suit; big contender.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (16/1 +0%) Kings Hill	16 16/1(+0%)	(4) Kings Hill 16/1, 22/1, bit below form eleventh of 20 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (19.8f, good) 55 days ago, not for the first time his finishing effort lacking. Not out of things. Hasn't shown much in recent outings at Cheltenham and Leopardstown; needs more to figure.
15	15 \|PU\| (15) (25/1 +0%) Starzov	25 25/1(+0%)	(15) Starzov 25/1, 9/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, tenth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.2f, good). Off 9 months and others make greater appeal. Hasn't threatened to win in 5 handicap outings to date and has been off the track 281 days.
11	11 \|PU\| (11) (40/1 -233%) Alpesh Amin	40 40/1(-233%)	(11) Alpesh Amin 40/1, Confirmed previous promise when running out a good winner of a big field Gowran handicap hurdle 12 months ago. Found things much tougher in the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham a month later and he may well come on for this first start for 11 months. Midfield in the Pertemps on final start of season; likely to need this after 345 days off.

DANCING JEREMY reappeared off a three-month break to win a valuable handicap chase at Limerick over Christmas. The assessor gave him a hike for that, but he bids to exploit his lower hurdle mark. Glen Kiln ran well for a long way before finishing unplaced in a higher grade over further at the Dublin Racing Festival. On his penultimate start, he was an easy winner over this trip in Navan. Beckett Rock is a lightly-raced sort who has already clocked up two victories. He could bounce back from a below par run at Leopardstown. Slane Hill has ability but prefers better ground, while Thornleigh Frank ran up a hat-trick in the summer of 2023 but hasn't been seen since then.

Cases can be made for plenty here including SPORTING GLORY. Very low-mileage as a 9-y-o, he's made a very bright start for his present yard and with his latest run in Grade 1 company easily forgiven, he appeals as the type to do better still now his attentions switch to handicaps. Slane Hill, Glen Kiln and Dancing Jeremy are others to consider. No Looking Back is another making each-way appeal.

Slane Hill & Dancing Jeremy should go well but the drop in trip will suit GLEN KILN and he could still be ahead of the assessor

14:50 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 20f - 24 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
28	28 (28) (22/1 -38%) Wendell's Lass	22 22/1(-38%)	(28) Wendell's Lass 22/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fell in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Punchestown (19.6f, soft) 40 days ago looking set to go close. Can make presence felt. RESERVE. Best form so far at 2m but promises to stay 2m4f; don't rule out if getting a run; reserve.
1	20 1st (20) (15/2 +25%) Westernersunrise	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(20) Westernersunrise 15/2, Good fourth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23f, heavy, 6/1) 26 days ago. Not taken lightly. Punchestown run a step in the right direction; shorter trip could suit.
2	12 2nd (12) (20/1 +9%) Joya Del Mar	20 20/1(+9%)	(12) Joya Del Mar 20/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at this course (19.8f, soft) 17 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Recent C&D effort encouraging having been hampered; place claims.
3	7 3rd (7) (14/1 +44%) Nelson County	14 14/1(+44%)	(7) Nelson County 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, eighth of 16 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, heavy) 26 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Potential improver. Upped in trip for handicap debut and one of the least exposed.
4	26 4th (26) (20/1 +60%) Nettuno Italia	20 20/1(+60%)	(26) Nettuno Italia 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tenth of 16 in novice hurdle (300/1) at Punchestown (16.2f, heavy) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should progress. RESERVE. Little to take from three maiden runs at 2m; upped in trip for handicap debut; reserve.
5th	24 5th (24) (18/1 +10%) Chosen Shant	18 18/1(+10%)	(24) Chosen Shant 18/1, Pulled up in handicap chase (15/2) at Navan (24f, soft) 35 days ago, tailed off when pulled up after 3 out. Switches from chase to hurdles. Tongue strap back on. 0-23 over hurdles for Ciaran Murphy and two recent chase efforts don't inspire confidence.
6th	5 6th (5) (10/1 +29%) Elusive Guy	10 10/1(+29%)	(5) Elusive Guy 10/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 13 in handicap hurdle at this course (19.8f, soft, 13/2) 17 days ago, running on. Others more persuasive. Recent C&D staying-on third augurs well; ground no problem.
7th	10 7th (10) (6/1 +73%) Glorytogod Tom	6 6/1(+73%)	(10) Glorytogod Tom 6/1, 22/1, creditable sixth of 20 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (soft) 52 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Ran well for long way on last month's C&D effort; not one to rule out.
8th	16 8th (16) (17/2 -13%) Read To Return	8.5 17/2(-13%)	(16) Read To Return 17/2, One win from 21 NH runs. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Down Royal (24f, good to soft, 7/2) 32 days ago, not ideally placed. Switches from chase to hurdles. Merits consideration. Best recent form at 3m so could struggle at this trip.
9th	21 9th (21) (33/1 -65%) Glenetty	33 33/1(-65%)	(21) Glenetty 33/1, Excellent third of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.3f, soft, 66/1) 19 days ago. Improved form though that was, she will probably again find one or two too good. Promising handicap debut at Punchestown; drop in trip could suit and one to consider.
10th	9 10th (9) (66/1 +0%) Brianna Lily	66 66/1(+0%)	(9) Brianna Lily 66/1, 20/1, last of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.3f, soft) 19 days ago. Others more persuasive. Dual Clonmel winner but recent efforts leave her with a fair bit to find.
11th	22 11th (22) (25/1 +24%) Kobalt St Georges	25 25/1(+24%)	(22) Kobalt St Georges 25/1, Last of 9 in handicap chase at Clonmel (16.9f, soft, 12/1) on debut over fences 38 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Very hard to make a case for. Struggled so far in handicaps; hard to make a case for despite reduced mark.
12th	19 12th (19) (100/1 -100%) Real Empire	100 100/1(-100%)	(19) Real Empire 100/1, Unseated rider in novice hurdle (80/1) at Galway (16.8f, soft). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving John Joseph Hanlon. Hood back on. Makes handicap hurdle debut. May well do better. Bumper promise but hurdles form so far hasn't matched up; best watched on handicap debut.
11	11 \|PU\| (11) (4/1 0%) Leah's Contessa	4 4/1(0%)	(11) Leah's Contessa 4/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. 5/1, didn't need to improve to win 13-runner novice hurdle at this course (20.4f, soft) 28 days ago, always holding on. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Recent C&D maiden winner; hooded for handicap debut with more likely.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (10/1 +29%) In For The Night	10 10/1(+29%)	(2) In For The Night 10/1, Winner in hurdle at Gowran in October. Tenth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19f, heavy, 11/2) 53 days ago, not knocked about. Looks competitive on form. Back from short break, penultimate C&D second gives him definite claims.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (12/1 +40%) Way Down South	12 12/1(+40%)	(4) Way Down South 12/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. 12/1, career best when winning 15-runner novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, soft) 55 days ago by 6½ lengths from Annamaymurt, driven clear. Something to find on form. Good attitude to win Limerick maiden; needs to jump better now in handicap company.
14	14 \|PU\| (14) (13/2 -8%) Wardens Whisper	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(14) Wardens Whisper 13/2, 6/4, career best when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle at Cork (16.9f, soft) 36 days ago, readily. Enters calculations. Enterprisingly ridden for recent Cork win; 7lb higher and may not get such leeway here.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (14/1 +13%) Whale Harbour	14 14/1(+13%)	(1) Whale Harbour 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable third of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.3f, good to soft, 11/4). First run for yard after leaving Gavin Patrick Cromwell. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Ex Gavin Cromwell-trained 6yo; absent since last May and opening mark on the high side.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (20/1 -25%) Kilbarry Ce Ce	20 20/1(-25%)	(6) Kilbarry Ce Ce 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, below form fifth of 13 in novice hurdle at Clonmel (16.9f, soft) 38 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Easy to look elsewhere. Some maiden promise; hooded for handicap debut but others preferred.
25	25 \|PU\| (25) (25/1 +50%) Aswellasabentley	25 25/1(+50%)	(25) Aswellasabentley 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 13 in juvenile hurdle (33/1) at this course (16f, soft) 17 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Likely to improve. Potential improver now upped in trip for handicap debut, market may prove best guide.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (28/1 +15%) Lord Lariat	28 28/1(+15%)	(3) Lord Lariat 28/1, 33/1, fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at this course (19.8f, soft) 17 days ago, inadequate test. Looks vulnerable. Encouraging recent C&D comeback run; more expected of from favourable hurdles mark.
15	15 \|PU\| (15) (33/1 -32%) Annamaymurt	33 33/1(-32%)	(15) Annamaymurt 33/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Limerick (21f, heavy) 25 days ago. Has work to do. Lost action last time, penultimate Limerick second to Way Down South puts him in the mix.

LEAH'S CONTESSA was good enough to land a maiden hurdle at this track without fully settling. A first-time hood is tried and she is on a mark she ought to be competitive off on handicap debut. One And Only had a productive December at Cork with a victory and a runner-up berth posted, so he can get into contention. Kingkong Ciergues left previous efforts well behind when just pipped by a head at this track, which makes him dangerous. There was promise in Glenetty's third place on handicap debut at Punchestown, while Wardens Whisper made all over a shorter trip at Cork and wasn't winning out of turn. Elusive Guy is another to consider in a competitive race.

The vote goes to WARDENS WHISPER, who deservedly opened his account at Cork last month and a 7 lb rise looks manageable. Westernersunrise is second choice ahead of In For The Night and Read To Return. If One And Only goes to post (due to run at Punchestown on Friday), he will also need considering.

Recent C&D second KINGKONG CIERGUES holds a major chance of going one better

15:25 Fairyhouse Conditions Chase 26f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	8 1st (8) (5/6 +24%) Nick Rockett	0.833333 5/6(+24%)	(8) Nick Rockett 5/6, High-class chaser. Course winner. 1 win from 2 runs this season. Career best when winning 18-runner handicap chase at Gowran (25f, soft, 9/2) 30 days ago. Big player. Thyestes winner maturing nicely; could further enhance his Aintree prospects here.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/4 +61%) Intense Raffles	2.75 11/4(+61%)	(4) Intense Raffles 11/4, Smart chaser. C&D winner. Fourteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Navan (20f, soft) 35 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back up in trip. 3-3 over fences here; hurdles preps should have him straight and has to be respected.
3	2 3rd (2) (14/1 +0%) Capodanno	14 14/1(+0%)	(2) Capodanno 14/1, Very smart chaser. 14/1, 26 lengths fourth of 7 to Embassy Gardens in New Year's Day Chase at Tramore (22.8f, heavy) 52 days ago. Talented but has become unreliable; two runs this term leave him with a fair bit to find.
4	7 4th (7) (10/3 +67%) Minella Cocooner	3.333333 10/3(+67%)	(7) Minella Cocooner 10/3, Smart chaser. Five wins from 16 NH runs. 100/1, 31¾ lengths ninth of 10 to Galopin Des Champs in Irish Gold Cup at Leopardstown (24.3f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Not taken lightly back down in class.

I AM MAXIMUS is targeting a repeat Grand National success but might still concede 12lb to 161-rated Thyestes winner Nick Rockett and follow up last year's success in this race. The selection was recently handed top weight for April's showpiece and it is notable Paul Townend has chosen to ride him. Nick Rockett has strong claims on ratings and is suited by race conditions but lacks the selection's best high-class ability. Affordale Fury, who needs to complete the course to qualify for Cheltenham handicaps, was an unlucky loser recently and can get involved. Intense Raffles reverts to fences and is another en route to Aintree.

NICK ROCKETT showed high-class form when defying a mark of 152 in the Thyestes at Gowran last month and looks the one to beat on these terms. His stablemate I Am Maximus won this last year before following up in the Grand National at Aintree and is the obvious threat despite conceding 12 lb to the selection.

Unbeaten in three visits here, INTENSE RAFFLES may be the one to side with in a tricky-looking renewal

16:00 Fairyhouse Maiden Chase 26f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	3 1st (3) (13/8 +46%) Ney	1.625 13/8(+46%)	(3) Ney 13/8, First run since leaving Danny Brooke when career best when winning 11-runner novice chase (33/1) at Punchestown (22.7f, heavy) on debut over fences 41 days ago. No fluke about that and has the potential for even better 33-1 winner on stable/chase debut at Punchestown; major player upped in trip here.
2	6 2nd (6) (10/3 +72%) Meyo	3.333333 10/3(+72%)	(6) Meyo 10/3, Fair hurdler. 4/1, sound start to her chase career third of 10 in maiden at Ballinrobe (23.3f, soft) in August. Off since but the fact the yard won the race last year provides some hope. Good deal to find on figures but stable have won this race twice in the last three years.
3	4 3rd (4) (5/2 +25%) Jasmin De Cotte	2.5 5/2(+25%)	(4) Jasmin De Cotte 5/2, Fairly useful chaser. 22/1, creditable third of 17 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (24.4f, good to soft) 55 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form. Solid chance but needs to jump better and his best form is on better ground.
4	7 4th (7) (4/1 +43%) Sea Aster	4 4/1(+43%)	(7) Sea Aster 4/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser. 15/2, sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Punchestown (22f, soft) 19 days ago. One of 2 for Gordon Elliott. Clonmel beginners' win last June but has shown jumping frailties on her last four starts.

NEY was a mini-revelation when he went up in distance to score on chase debut last month, and might continue to progress. He benefitted hugely from running over staying Flat distances last year, winning three times in Britain, and while he faces a tougher task than when scoring at Punchestown recently, should appreciate today's even longer distance. Buachaillbocht has a favourable chase rating and while he should be well suited to stepping up to this distance being a laid-back individual, has poor recent form. Jasmin De Cotte made mistakes when running well at Leopardstown during Christmas and stays well.

JASMIN DE COTTE shaped well in a competitive handicap at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting and might prove the answer to this rated novice. Ney won well on his chase debut for new trainer Edward Buckley and is feared most ahead of Will Do, another who hasn't shaped too badly in strong handicaps lately.

NEY couldn't have been more impressive on his first start for Edward Buckley and he's entitled to improve for his chase debut run too

16:35 Fairyhouse Maiden Chase 22f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	5 1st (5) (8/11 +58%) Spindleberry	0.727273 8/11(+58%)	(5) Spindleberry 8/11, Successful on hurdling debut last season and useful form when runner-up in Grade 1 novice next time. After 8 months off, made a winning start over fences in 7-runner maiden at Cork (21.2f, soft, 8/11) 71 days ago and she's a major player. Cork winner on chase debut with potential for more; Townend's pick.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/4 +100%) Bioluminescence	2.25 9/4(+100%)	(1) Bioluminescence 9/4, Impressive on chasing debut when winning Grade 2 novice at Limerick (22.6f) in December and improved further against the males when 3½ lengths second of 5 to Dancing City in Grade 3 novice at Naas (24.8f, heavy, 7/2) 27 days ago. Respected. Classy mare has taken well to chasing; good chance she can concede weight here.
3	3 3rd (3) (17/2 +47%) A Penny A Hundred	8.5 17/2(+47%)	(3) A Penny A Hundred 17/2, Opened chase account at second attempt at Ballinrobe and good fourth in novice won by Judicieuse Allen at this course (21f) in December. However, not in the same form when fourth of 5 in Grade 2 novice at Thurles (20.9f, good, 10/3) 34 days ago. Held by stablemate Judicieuse Allen on recent form; hard to see her playing a major role.
4	4 4th (4) (11/1 +8%) Kilbarry Saint	11 11/1(+8%)	(4) Kilbarry Saint 11/1, Fairly useful winning hurdler. Without a win in 4 chase starts, but in first-time hood she took a step forward when length second of 5 to Only By Night in listed novice (14/1) at Exeter (17.5f, soft) 13 days ago, well ridden. More needed back up in trip. Exeter second her best run yet; more needed but could sneak more black type here.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 +14%) Judicieuse Allen	12 12/1(+14%)	(2) Judicieuse Allen 12/1, Fell at the last on chasing debut but won next 2 starts, including novice at this course (21f) in December. Lesser effort when 13¼ lengths third of 5 to Nara in Grade 2 novice at Thurles (20.9f, good, 85/40) 34 days ago, though she could fare better back here. C&D novice winner but disappointing at Thurles; Townend now prefers Spindleberry.

BIOLUMINESCENCE has a tough task to concede 10lb to Spindleberry but is suited by this distance and testing ground. Despite pulling up in a Grade 1 race last March, the selection is thoroughly dependable and ran very well when failing to concede 1lb to high-class stayer Dancing City at Naas last month. A reproduction of that run would give her every chance. Spindleberry finished second in the aforementioned top-level Fairyhouse race last March and is herself very able. She looks sure to benefit from her debut fences win at Cork in December and returns from a break, so should give the selection a real race. Judicieuse Allen might edge A Penny A Hundred for third.

Having shown useful form in just 3 outings over hurdles, SPINDLEBERRY pulled clear with a fellow promising type when making a winning chase debut at Cork in December and she can build on that effort for her leading yard. She is preferred to Bioluminescence, who has looked a good prospect in her 2 chase starts, with Judicieuse Allen the pick of the remaider.

Having taken really well to chasing, BIOLUMINESCENCE (nap) can concede weight all round here en route to Cheltenham

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content,

A chance is taken with KAISER BALL, who is owner-ridden on debut for Willie Mullins. The selection debuts at a notable time of year and all three of his older siblings were smart bumper performers. One of those was Grade 1-placed in this sphere while the other pair landed three bumpers between them. Stablemate Arslan was purchased for 180,000 euros following his May debut points run and while the fourth-placed horse at Tralee subsequently won a bumper, that overall form isn't exciting. Eachtotheirown showed plenty of ability when heavily supported on debut. That Naas form looks strong as the winner, third and fourth had all previously won point-to-points.

Despite failing to land string support, EACHTOTHEIROWN's debut second was full of promise and with that behind him, he can go one place better. Arslan and Riskaway, Rules newcomers from powerful stables, are the obvious threats.

The selection is FRANKIE JOHN, who was an eyecatching fourth behind a leading Champion Bumper contender at Navan 13 days ago

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.
