14:05 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 16f - 18 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
3	3 (3) (4/1 -20%) D Art D Art	4 4/1(-20%)	(3) D Art D Art 4/1, Promising sort. Latest win in hurdle at Cork in January. 13/8, creditable fourth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.1f, heavy) 44 days ago. Back down in trip. Has to be taken seriously. Possibly did not stay extra half-mile when fourth in his first handicap, merits respect.
6	6 (6) (9/2 +10%) Implicit	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(6) Implicit 9/2, Thrice-raced winner over hurdles. 4/1, won 14-runner novice hurdle at Clonmel (16.5f, heavy) 81 days ago, pushed out. Open to improvement now pitched into a handicap. Goes into handicap company after winning a maiden at Clonmel, likely to be progressive.
2	2 (2) (5/1 -50%) Redstone	5 5/1(-50%)	(2) Redstone 5/1, Promising individual. C&D winner. 1 win from 3 runs this season. Fell in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20f, soft, 16/5) 15 days ago. Trainer going well. Enters calculations. In touch when fell three out at Down Royal, seems well handicapped based on C&D maiden win.
15	15 (15) (6/1 +40%) Master Otis	6 6/1(+40%)	(15) Master Otis 6/1, Good second of 15 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, soft, 10/1) 29 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Needs a couple of these to falter. Maiden who comes into the reckoning on the strength of last month's Leopardstown second.
5	5 (5) (12/1 -60%) Catena Zapata	12 12/1(-60%)	(5) Catena Zapata 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 8f on the Flat. Excellent second of 12 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.1f, heavy, 11/2) 63 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Two Flat wins were gained on AW, three seconds over hurdles, makes handicap debut.
7	7 (7) (12/1 +33%) Ring O Roses	12 12/1(+33%)	(7) Ring O Roses 12/1, Hooded for 1st time, respectable 12 lengths sixth of 17 to Petit King in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Punchestown (19.2f, heavy) 111 days ago. Rachael Blackmore prefers Catena Zapata. First two handicaps runs were more promising than her most recent one behind Petit King.
16	16 (16) (14/1 +13%) Ossie's Lodge	14 14/1(+13%)	(16) Ossie's Lodge 14/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 12/1) 94 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Others have achieved more. Bumper winner, flopped on handicap hurdle debut, addition of tongue-tie may help his cause.
1	1 (1) (16/1 +0%) Boher Road	16 16/1(+0%)	(1) Boher Road 16/1, Lightly-raced hurdles winner. Successful at Wexford in September. Tailed-off last of 10 to Ballyburn in Brave Inca Novices' Hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, soft, 250/1) 57 days ago. Completely out of his depth last time, let down by his jumping in a Listowel handicap.
8	8 (8) (16/1 +27%) Petit King	16 16/1(+27%)	(8) Petit King 16/1, Winner in hurdle at Punchestown in December. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Naas (19f, heavy) 22 days ago. Merits consideration. Possibly too high in the ratings since Punchestown win in December, fair fourth latest.
11	11 (11) (16/1 +52%) Cave Court	16 16/1(+52%)	(11) Cave Court 16/1, 4 wins from 7 runs this season. Latest win in chase at Clonmel in September. Brought down in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20f, soft, 9/1) 15 days ago. Potentially well treated relative to chase form, brought down at the fourth at Down Royal.
9	9 (9) (22/1 -100%) Kaleosun	22 22/1(-100%)	(9) Kaleosun 22/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, well-beaten last of 12 to Kala Conti in Leopardstown Juvenile Hurdle (80/1) at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft) 97 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Has run in Graded juvenile races since maiden win at Galway, opening mark looks reasonable.
4	4 (4) (22/1 -57%) Sportinthepark	22 22/1(-57%)	(4) Sportinthepark 22/1, Lightly-raced winner under Rules. 25/1, very good third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20f, soft) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Ended up third in Down Royal event in which Redstone fell, needs to find extra.
12	12 (12) (28/1 -155%) Toll Stone	28 28/1(-155%)	(12) Toll Stone 28/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. C&D winner. Bit below form third of 6 in a C&D juvenile hurdle (heavy, 7/2) 37 days ago. Hood on 1st time. C&D maiden winner but well beaten in third on handicap debut also over C&D.
13	13 (13) (28/1 -56%) Don't Talk	28 28/1(-56%)	(13) Don't Talk 28/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this season. Latest win in hurdle here in January. Fourth of 7 in minor event hurdle (5/1) at this C&D (heavy) 54 days ago. Progressive in handicaps before running in a conditions race, this will suit better.
19	19 (19) (40/1 +20%) Know The Game	40 40/1(+20%)	(19) Know The Game 40/1, 9/1, last of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (15.5f, good to soft). Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving J. T. R. Dreaper. Tongue strap on 1st time. Lacks a recent run, poor effort over hurdles on his final start last year, a better chaser.
14	14 (14) (50/1 +50%) San Martino	50 50/1(+50%)	(14) San Martino 50/1, 50/1, unseated rider in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20f, soft) 15 days ago. Something to find on form. Flat winner, big price when unseated at Down Royal on his most recent hurdles start.
18	18 (18) (50/1 -52%) Glendine Billy	50 50/1(-52%)	(18) Glendine Billy 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. 11/2, seventh of 12 in novice hurdle at Thurles (15.6f, soft) 48 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should have more to offer. Maiden form is not strong enough to make him one of the more likely contenders.
17	17 (17) (66/1 -65%) Single Edition	66 66/1(-65%)	(17) Single Edition 66/1, Fair winner at 16f in bumpers. 20/1 and hood on for 1st time in this code, tenth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (12f) on flat debut. Off 13 months. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Poor on last hurdle run. Bumper winner, lengthy absence is likely to be a drawback in a handicap as strong as this.

REDSTONE beat the smart King Of Kingsfield in a maiden over C&D in October and was travelling well when a faller three out on handicap debut at Down Royal a couple of weeks ago. He has a hefty weight to shoulder but could be on a decent mark nonetheless and gets the vote. Implicit put a poor run at Limerick behind her when scoring at Clonmel in January. She handled testing ground well on that occasion and has to be feared on handicap debut. Master Otis was runner-up to a subsequent handicap winner in a Leopardstown maiden and is another with plenty of upside on his first start in handicap company.

The vote goes to D ART D ART, who landed a big-field Cork maiden in January and acquitted himself well when fourth on his handicap debut upped to 2½m at Gowran last time. But for a last-flight mistake, the 5-y-o may have finished second there and he remains open to improvement back at 2m. Redstone and Implicit are others likely improvers with appealing profiles, while Kaleosun is of interest now handicapping and Catena Zapata is also shortlisted.

It may be worth giving another chance to REDSTONE, favourite on his handicap debut and well enough positioned when falling three out

14:05 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:40 Fairyhouse Conditions Hurdle 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
8	8 (8) (3/1 +25%) Miss Manzor	3 3/1(+25%)	(8) Miss Manzor 3/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Fifth of 22 in the Fred Winter (18/1) at Cheltenham (16.4f, heavy) 20 days ago, needing stiffer test. Could be hard to pass if she is allowed to dictate. Failed to confirm previous form with Ndaawi at Cheltenham but Paul Townend picks her now.
1	1 (1) (4/1 +11%) Bottler'secret	4 4/1(+11%)	(1) Bottler'secret 4/1, Quickly developed into a useful Flat performer for Ciaran Murphy in the autumn and comfortably got off the mark on his yard/hurdles debut in Grade 3 Naas juvenile 36 days ago. Has a fair bit more to offer. Won two of his three Flat starts, won Grade 3 on hurdling debut, this looks tougher.
6	6 (6) (9/2 -226%) Ndaawi	4.5 9/2(-226%)	(6) Ndaawi 9/2, Useful Flat winner who confirmed previous promise in this sphere when off the mark in 16-runner event at Naas and smashing third of 22 in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham (16.4f, heavy) 20 days ago. Lots to like. Excellent third in an Irish-dominated Boodles at Cheltenham, Miss Manzor 9l away in fifth.
4	4 (4) (9/2 +36%) Givemefive	4.5 9/2(+36%)	(4) Givemefive 9/2, Fair Flat winner in Ireland who made it 2 from 2 over hurdles for his new yard at Warwick in January. Very good ¾-length second of 5 to Kalif Du Berlais in Adonis Juvenile Hurdle at Kempton since and not discounted. Has taken well to hurdling, no disgrace in Kempton second behind an unbeaten opponent.
7	7 (7) (15/2 +38%) Karia Des Blaises	7.5 15/2(+38%)	(7) Karia Des Blaises 15/2, Winner of her only start over hurdles for Emmanuel Clayeux and shaped with promise first 2 outings for new yard before falling heavily in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham (16.4f, heavy) 20 days ago. Did well to split Miss Manzor and Ndaawi at this venue, fell at the fourth in the Boodles.
2	2 (2) (9/1 +0%) Batman Girac	9 9/1(+0%)	(2) Batman Girac 9/1, Thirteenth of 22 in Fred Winter at Cheltenham (16.4f, heavy, 10/1) 20 days ago. Bit to find at this stage. Fourth in a Grade 2 at Leopardstown, trainer could not explain poor showing in the Boodles.
5	5 (5) (14/1 +0%) Karl Des Tourelles	14 14/1(+0%)	(5) Karl Des Tourelles 14/1, 100/1 winner first time up at Gowran. Second of 4 in juvenile hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 10/3) 22 days ago, needing stiffer test. Open to progress. Big-priced winner on debut, no match for a smart type in a four-runner Limerick contest.
3	3 (3) (28/1 +15%) Eastern Legend	28 28/1(+15%)	(3) Eastern Legend 28/1, Useful handicapper on Flat (stays 14.5f), better than ever when successful last time. Some doing if he took this first time up over hurdles. Stayed well on Flat, could make a smart hurdler but is thrown in at the deep end here.

NDAAWI reversed course and distance form with Miss Manzor when a fine third in the Fred Winter at Cheltenham and may now confirm that superiority. Gordon Elliott's charge, a maiden winner at Naas two runs back, finished third to Miss Manzor here in January but had that filly nine lengths in arrears when they clashed at Prestbury Park. Miss Manzor gets an extra 3lb from the selection on this occasion but it may not be enough to turn the tables. Karia Des Blaises, a faller at halfway in the Fred Winter, had previously split Miss Manzor and Ndaawi when second here in January and can't be ruled out but British raider Givemefive, second in a Grade 2 at Kempton after winning his first two starts over hurdles, may pose a bigger threat. Bottler'secret easily won a four-runner Grade 3 at Naas on hurdling debut but faces a stiffer task under a penalty.

BOTTLER'SECRET has plenty more to offer over jumps judged on his impressive Naas win and can take this. Fred Winter-third Ndaawi is an obvious threat although his old rival Miss Manzor might be hard to pass if she can dictate matters.

It could pay to trust the form of the Boodles at Cheltenham in which NDAAWI reversed C&D form with Miss Manzor, an obvious danger

14:40 Fairyhouse Conditions Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:15 Fairyhouse Handicap Hurdle 22f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 (1) (13/8 +7%) O'moore Park	1.625 13/8(+7%)	(1) O'moore Park 13/8, Lightly-raced sort who easily landed 14-runner novice hurdle (8/11) at this course (20f, heavy) 68 days ago. Form has been franked so big shout on his handicap debut. Course maiden winner, needs to jump more fluently to cope with experienced handicappers.
11	11 (11) (11/4 +17%) Positive Thinker	2.75 11/4(+17%)	(11) Positive Thinker 11/4, 17/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, very good second of 12 in handicap chase at Naas (24.8f, heavy) 22 days ago, clear of rest. Switches to hurdles and expected to be bang there. Consistent over hurdles and fences this season, 11lb lower than over fences, good chance.
3	3 (3) (6/1 +0%) Western Walk	6 6/1(+0%)	(3) Western Walk 6/1, 10/3, career best when winning 12-runner handicap hurdle at this course (24.5f, soft), impressively. Off 11 months but remains open to progress. Arrives bidding for belated hat-trick after 359-day absence, best form is on better ground.
6	6 (6) (15/2 +0%) Slanagaibhgoleir	7.5 15/2(+0%)	(6) Slanagaibhgoleir 15/2, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Winner in hurdle at Punchestown in January. Below form fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at this course (20.6f, heavy, 9/2) 37 days ago so needs to bounce back. Remote fourth of five finishers over a shorter trip at this venue in his first handicap.
8	8 (8) (10/1 +70%) Party Playboy	10 10/1(+70%)	(8) Party Playboy 10/1, Course winner. Creditable sixth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.1f, heavy, 18/1) 44 days ago. Enters calculations. Off for more than four years before reappearing this term, seems to retain some ability.
10	10 (10) (11/1 -10%) Mighty Jeremy	11 11/1(-10%)	(10) Mighty Jeremy 11/1, Course winner. Latest win in hurdle here in February. 7/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20.1f, heavy) 44 days ago, behind when pulled up early in straight. Not easy to make a case for. Won by 10l over 2m4f here in early February, found his revised mark too much at Gowran.
2	2 (2) (11/1 +21%) Western Fold	11 11/1(+21%)	(2) Western Fold 11/1, 28/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (21f, heavy) 19 days ago, dropping away quickly. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Weakened from three out in the Coral Cup at Cheltenham, perhaps not sure to stay.
4	4 (4) (14/1 -17%) Whatcouldhavebeen	14 14/1(-17%)	(4) Whatcouldhavebeen 14/1, Course winner. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Naas (19f, heavy, 10/1) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. In the mix. Cheekpieces tried after Naas fifth, plenty to find with Kilbree Warrior on that running.
9	9 (9) (50/1 -100%) Wild Shot	50 50/1(-100%)	(9) Wild Shot 50/1, 25/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f). Switches from Flat to hurdles. Rejoined yard after leaving John McConnell. Not taken lightly. Better-known as a nine-time Flat winner, two hurdles wins, best on a sound surface.

POSITIVE THINKER has been most consistent over both hurdles and fences this season and has good claims off a handy weight. A creditable second to Irish National contender Hartur D'arc over fences at Naas last time, he can compete off his lower hurdles mark here and his proven stamina will be an asset on the testing ground. Explosive Boy hasn't been seen since falling at this venue when in with every chance in late 2022. Touched off at Cheltenham on his previous start, his absence is obviously a concern and market confidence would be noteworthy. Kilbree Warrior is a doughty front-runner on her day and won over 2m4f at the Easter fixture here a year ago. She was a gallant second to an unexposed type at Naas three weeks ago and has her chance again from a 4lb higher mark.

Willie Mullins' unexposed O'MOORE PARK easily opened his account in novice company here last time and with that form working out well he looks the way to go now stepping into handicap company for the first time. Positive Thinker figures on a lenient mark and could emerge as the chief threat, with in-form pair Wild Shot and Kilbree Warrior also firmly in the picture in a competitive handicap.

The consistent POSTIVE THINKER may be able to exploit his lower chase mark having run a fine race over fences at Naas last time

15:50 Fairyhouse Conditions Hurdle 20f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
3	3 (3) (5/6 -4%) Zarak The Brave	0.833333 5/6(-4%)	(3) Zarak The Brave 5/6, Smart hurdler. Good 9½ lengths fourth of 8 to State Man in Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham (16.4f, heavy, 22/1) 20 days ago. Up in trip. Trainer going well. Big player. Respectable 10l fourth to stablemate State Man in the Champion Hurdle; trip a concern.
6	6 (6) (5/2 +44%) Thedevilscoachman	2.5 5/2(+44%)	(6) Thedevilscoachman 5/2, Smart hurdler. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, 32½ lengths last of 4 to Monkfish in John Mulhern Galmoy Hurdle at Gowran (24f, heavy, 5/4) 67 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. In the picture. Capable Graded performer over hurdles and fences, handles heavy; tongue-tie interesting.
1	1 (1) (11/2 -57%) Brewin'upastorm	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(1) Brewin'upastorm 11/2, Smart hurdler. Good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (20.9f, soft, 12/1) 30 days ago, conceding first run. Booking of Kennedy a plus so this veteran can't be ruled out. Solid Grade 2 performer on his day, good run under top weight in Kelso handicap last time.
5	5 (5) (10/1 -25%) Maxxum	10 10/1(-25%)	(5) Maxxum 10/1, Useful hurdler. 2 wins from 6 runs this season. 15/2, creditable sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Naas (22.7f, heavy) 36 days ago. Shortlisted. Useful 3m handicapper missed a Cheltenham engagement; up in grade and down in trip here.

ZARAK THE BRAVE should prove difficult to beat if staying this extra half-mile. The selection can race quite keenly and enjoyed a big payday when taking the Galway Hurdle last summer. He bounced back from a disappointing effort at Tipperary to take a Grade 3 at Naas and certainly wasn't disgraced when fourth to stablemate State Man in the Champion Hurdle at Cheltenham. Brewin'upastorm is well proven over this distance having twice won the National Spirit Hurdle at Fontwell and ran up to his mark in a Kelso handicap last month. Thedevilscoachman has been given a break since finishing very tired last time in the Galmoy Hurdle at Gowran and previously put in a decent effort behind Sir Gerhard over this trip at Punchestown.

ZARAK THE BRAVE has much less on his plate than when coming in a good fourth to stablemate State Man in the Champion Hurdle last time and can quickly resume winning ways at the chief expense of Thedevilscoachman who can also boast some smart form. Veteran Brewin'upastorm can edge out the Gordon Elliott-trained duo Beacon Edge and Maxxum for minor honours.

Champion Hurdle fourth Zarak The Brave is the one to beat but over the trip, on this ground, THEDEVILSCOACHMAN has a decent chance

15:50 Fairyhouse Conditions Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

16:20 Fairyhouse Conditions Chase 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 (1) (6/5 +13%) Saint Sam	1.2 6/5(+13%)	(1) Saint Sam 6/5, High-class chaser. 10/11, won 5-runner Red Mills Chase at Gowran (20f, heavy) 44 days ago by 8½ lengths from Riviere D'etel, hard held. Major player. Has won his last four completed starts since returning to the larger obstacles last year.
4	4 (4) (10/3 +26%) Appreciate It	3.333333 10/3(+26%)	(4) Appreciate It 10/3, High-class hurdler. Eight wins from 18 NH runs. 24 lengths third of 4 to Allaho in Kinloch Brae Chase at Thurles (20.2f, heavy, 11/4) 71 days ago. Paul Townend prefers Saint Sam. Fine return in Durkan Chase when splitting Fastorslow and Galopin Des Champs; poor since.
2	2 (2) (4/1 -78%) Journey With Me	4 4/1(-78%)	(2) Journey With Me 4/1, Smart chaser. 4/6 and tongue strap on for 1st time, 3¾ lengths third of 5 to Ash Tree Meadow in Webster Cup Chase at Navan (20.4f, heavy) 30 days ago. Merits respect. Grade 3 winner as a novice last term; third at Navan after a long lay-off; still unexposed.
6	6 (6) (9/2 +25%) Fil Dor	4.5 9/2(+25%)	(6) Fil Dor 9/2, Very smart chaser. Five wins from 16 NH runs. 28/1, 19¾ lengths seventh of 11 to Protektorat in Ryanair Chase (Festival Trophy) at Cheltenham (20.6f, soft) 18 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Below par when beaten 20l in the Ryanair Chase having run well over 2m earlier this season.
5	5 (5) (33/1 -106%) Espanito Bello	33 33/1(-106%)	(5) Espanito Bello 33/1, Smart chaser. Latest win in hurdle at Naas in November. Unseated rider in handicap chase at Naas (24.8f, heavy, 13/2) 22 days ago. Back down in trip. All five career wins have come at Naas; fair third in 2m Grade 3 chase there latest.
3	3 (3) (50/1 -100%) Rebel Gold	50 50/1(-100%)	(3) Rebel Gold 50/1, Smart chaser. Course winner. 14/1, very good 5½ lengths second of 6 to Ferny Hollow in Newlands Chase at Naas (16f, heavy) 36 days ago, no match for winner. Back up in trip. Easy to look elsewhere. Fair bit to find at the weights and, although he stays this trip, best form over shorter.

SAINT SAM had some jumping issues as a novice but has switched back to fences with great effect winning his last four completed starts. The selection likes to force the pace and impressed last time over this trip in the Grade 2 Red Mills Chase at Gowran. Appreciate It probably holds the strongest piece of form here when dividing Fastorslow and Galopin Des Champs in the John Durkan Chase at Punchestown but hasn't got near that level on both outings since. Journey With Me should benefit from his belated seasonal debut at Navan and may prove more of a threat than Fil Dor who has shown his best form over shorter distances.

Willie Mullins has landed four of the five previous running of this and SAINT SAM is taken to enhance that record. He barely broke sweat in the Red Mills Chase at Gowran last time and while the competition here is sterner, there could be better to come from this 7-y-o, who has won five of his seven completed starts over fences (the two defeats were in Grade 1 company). Stablemate Appreciate It is second choice ahead of Fil Dor and Journey With Me.

A chance is taken with JOURNEY WITH ME who should be better for last month's return and is still open to progress with sharper jumping

17:00 Fairyhouse Handicap Chase 29f - 20 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
3	3 (3) (4/1 +0%) Nick Rockett	4 4/1(+0%)	(3) Nick Rockett 4/1, Rapidly developed into a smart novice hurdler last spring (won Grade 2 at this meeting) and has taken well to fences on return, winning Fairyhouse maiden and second in 3m Navan Grade 3. More to come over this marathon trip and will relish conditions. Leading claims. Only three runs over fences but has a strong chance for last year's winning combination.
19	19 (19) (13/2 +59%) We'llhavewan	6.5 13/2(+59%)	(19) We'llhavewan 13/2, Career best when winning 16-runner handicap hurdle at Navan (25.2f, heavy) in December. 5/4, good 16 lengths second of 15 to Where It All Began in handicap chase at Punchestown (27f, heavy) 43 days ago. Could have more to offer over fences. Ran from out of the handicap and with overweight when 16l second in Grand National Trial.
7	7 (7) (13/2 +7%) Intense Raffles	6.5 13/2(+7%)	(7) Intense Raffles 13/2, Made it 2-2 for new yard here in 4-runner novice chase (4/6, 25.4f, heavy) 37 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Could be smart and one to note now handicapping. French import, two wins at this venue, leading chance on his defeat of Where It All Began.
8	8 (8) (8/1 +20%) Yeah Man	8 8/1(+20%)	(8) Yeah Man 8/1, Been in excellent form this season, in 1st-time cheekpieces when winning 10-runner Grand National Trial (Handicap) at Haydock (28.4f, heavy, 9/2) 44 days ago, value extra. Can go well again. Came into his own over extended 3m4f at Haydock winning well in first-time cheekpieces.
5	5 (5) (10/1 +17%) Senior Chief	10 10/1(+17%)	(5) Senior Chief 10/1, Useful hurdler who got off the mark over fences in workmanlike fashion at Punchestown (22.8f, heavy) 43 days ago, taking a while to find top gear off what was a very steady gallop. Remains with both untapped potential and stamina (will stay further than 3m) and can go well. Chased home Minella Cocooner at Navan, made heavy weather of landing short odds on latest.
15	15 (15) (10/1 +29%) Good Time Jonny	10 10/1(+29%)	(15) Good Time Jonny 10/1, Took the Pertemps Hurdle at the 2023 Cheltenham Festival. Yet to score in this sphere but he has caught the eye under a patient ride on his last two outings. Interesting up in trip. Last season's Pertemps Final winner, should be fully primed now after a quiet campaign.
6	6 (6) (14/1 -17%) Any Second Now	14 14/1(-17%)	(6) Any Second Now 14/1, One-time top-class chaser, placed in Grand National at Aintree in 2021 (unlucky) and 2022. Down the field in valuable handicap chases this season (well held over hurdles latest), though has dropped plenty in the weights as a result and been well backed for this in recent weeks. Admirable veteran, twice placed in Grand National, has a realistic chance off this mark.
4	4 (4) (14/1 +30%) Favori De Champdou	14 14/1(+30%)	(4) Favori De Champdou 14/1, Winner of 3 of his 6 starts over hurdles and impressive when taking the Florida Pearl at Punchestown in November. Not so good twice since though and revival needed now handicapping over new trip. Held by Nick Rockett and Minella Cocooner on Navan running, other stablemates preferred.
13	13 (13) (16/1 +0%) Where It All Began	16 16/1(+0%)	(13) Where It All Began 16/1, Showed much improved form to open his account as a chaser in 15-runner handicap at Punchestown (27f, heavy) in February. Fair fourth in the Kim Muir 18 days ago and remains unexposed in these sort of events. The pick of Kennedy from Elliott's seven. Second to Intense Raffles here before winning Grand National Trial, fourth in the Kim Muir.
20	20 (20) (16/1 +20%) Where's Frankie	16 16/1(+20%)	(20) Where's Frankie 16/1, 13/2, career best when winning 11-runner handicap chase at Leopardstown (28.3f, soft) 29 days ago, keeping on well. Stacks of course form but suspect he just lacks the class for a race like this. Thorough stayer, record as a four-time course winner gives him an each-way chance.
17	17 (17) (16/1 +36%) Daily Present	16 16/1(+36%)	(17) Daily Present 16/1, Tongue tied and left previous chasing efforts well behind switched to a handicap when scoring at Down Royal (3m) in January. Well backed and shaped as if still in good form when fifth in the Kim Muir next time. Stayed well when winning at Down Royal, behind Where It All Began when fifth in Kim Muir.
1	1 (1) (20/1 +20%) Minella Cocooner	20 20/1(+20%)	(1) Minella Cocooner 20/1, Smart winner at 22f over hurdles (second in the 2022 Albert Bartlett) and similar form over fences, although disappointed with his finishing effort when fancied for the Leinster National at Naas 22 days ago. An unplaced favourite in Naas contest won by Hartur D'Arc, plenty to prove as a result.
11	11 (11) (20/1 -150%) Hartur D'arc	20 20/1(-150%)	(11) Hartur D'arc 20/1, Has done well for new yard, career best when winning 12-runner handicap chase (4/1) at Naas (24.8f, heavy) 22 days ago, bit in hand. Could have even more to offer and 1 of 2 strong contenders for yard. Won Leinster National at Naas on handicap debut, has gone up 9lb but could be progressive.
12	12 (12) (25/1 +24%) Frontal Assault	25 25/1(+24%)	(12) Frontal Assault 25/1, Second in this in 2022 and better effort than for a while when 11¾ lengths fourth of 12 to Hartur d'Arc in handicap chase at Naas (24.8f, heavy) 22 days ago. 7 lb conditional up. Fair form in big-value staying handicaps earlier in the season, needs to find extra.
16	16 (16) (33/1 +34%) Street Value	33 33/1(+34%)	(16) Street Value 33/1, C&D winner in December but has failed to complete the last twice, pulled up in handicap chase at Punchestown (27f, heavy) 43 days ago won by Where It All Began. Hard to fancy now. C&D winner of Porterstown Chase, has his work cut out having been pulled up last two runs.
10	10 (10) (40/1 +0%) Dunboyne	40 40/1(+0%)	(10) Dunboyne 40/1, Unreliable type. Tongue strap on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap chase at Punchestown (27f, heavy, 33/1) 43 days ago won by Where It All Began, again folding tamely. Hard to fancy on that showing. Dropped away tamely in the Thyestes, again stopped quickly in the Grand National Trial.
21	21 (21) (50/1 +50%) History Of Fashion	50 50/1(+50%)	(21) History Of Fashion 50/1, Eighteen runs since sole win under Rules in 2022. 21½ lengths eighth of 12 to Hartur d'Arc in handicap chase (33/1) at Naas (24.8f, heavy) 22 days ago, left poorly placed. Tricky to fancy. Only one win from 22 chase starts, good C&D second before two much less encouraging runs.
2	2 (2) (50/1 -100%) Churchstonewarrior	50 50/1(-100%)	(2) Churchstonewarrior 50/1, Smart chaser. Has failed to complete in 2 good 3m events this term but will appreciate return to good staying handicap like this after a break. Smart staying type at his best, failure to complete on this term's two starts is a concern.
14	14 (14) (50/1 +0%) Cool Survivor	50 50/1(+0%)	(14) Cool Survivor 50/1, Useful winner at 24f over hurdles. Went close in Limerick maiden chase on return but hasn't kicked on since, let down by jumping in the Kim Muir 18 days ago. Fair fourth in 2m5f handicap chase at Leopardstown, tailed off in the Kim Muir..
9	9 (9) (80/1 +20%) Diol Ker	80 80/1(+20%)	(9) Diol Ker 80/1, Useful hurdler/chaser. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Well-beaten tenth of 12 to Hartur D'arc in handicap chase at Naas (24.8f, heavy, 12/1) 22 days ago. Has work to do. Generally found wanting in major staying handicap chases this season.

ANY SECOND NOW has generally shown his best form around this time of the year and has been given a chance by the handicapper although his age is a big minus for followers of trends. The Ted Walsh-trained gelding has no stamina concerns having been placed twice at Aintree and his seven career wins include the Bobbyjo Chase at this venue. Intense Raffles is at the opposite end of the spectrum in terms of age and experience but has been really exciting in making all and jumping superbly on both outings here this year. The Gavin Cromwell-trained pair Hartur D'arc and Yeah Man both come here off the back of valuable handicap wins, while Where It All Began drew clear in the closing stages to beat We'llhavewan by 16 lengths in the 3m4f National Trial at Punchestown. Course winner Nick Rockett, Senior Chief, Good Time Jonny and Minella Cocooner all represent the novice brigade that have done well in this race over the years, while Where's Frankie is a four-time course winner and won over 3m4f at Leopardstown last time.

The novices usually come to the fore in Ireland's premier handicap chase and NICK ROCKETT can give Willie Mullins another victory. A smart hurdler, he's taken really well to chasing this term and has more improvement to come when stamina is at a premium, as it will be here. Senior Chief boasts a similar profile and is a big player. Good Time Jonny is yet to show all he's capable of over fences, while Gavin Cromwell has a strong hand with Hartur d'Arc and Haydock-winner Yeah Man.

Not a huge field but a fascinating race in which GOOD TIME JONNY can exploit a mark that compares favourably with his hurdles rating

Info	Form	Odds
10	10 (10) (11/4 +17%) Better Times Ahead	2.75 11/4(+17%)	(10) Better Times Ahead 11/4, Below form sixth of 10 in handicap chase (12/1) at Gowran (20f, heavy) 44 days ago. Up in trip and remains open to improvement. Won big novice handicap at Navan a year ago on heavy and better for Gowran return.
11	11 (11) (4/1 +84%) Read To Return	4 4/1(+84%)	(11) Read To Return 4/1, Promising type. Winner in chase at Killarney in October. 5/2, sixth of 8 in handicap chase at this course (21.6f, heavy) 2 days ago. Needs to brush up on his jumping. Expensive to follow since Killarney win in October; poor run over 2m5f here on Saturday.
7	7 (7) (5/1 +9%) St Denis's Well	5 5/1(+9%)	(7) St Denis's Well 5/1, 4 wins from 7 runs this season. Career best when winning 7-runner novice chase at Down Royal (19.6f, soft, 13/2) 15 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Up in trip. Looks competitive on form. Likeably progressive youngster has won three of his last four chases under Kennedy.
6	6 (6) (5/1 -100%) Macdermott	5 5/1(-100%)	(6) Macdermott 5/1, Promising type. Fell in handicap chase (2/1) at Limerick (17.5f, heavy) 22 days ago. Significantly up in trip and there could be better to come from this 6-y-o. Fell two out when in front on handicap debut at Limerick (2m1f); big step up in trip.
4	4 (4) (9/1 -64%) Battle Of Mirbat	9 9/1(-64%)	(4) Battle Of Mirbat 9/1, Creditable second of 10 in handicap chase (7/1) at Leopardstown (21.5f, soft) 29 days ago. Each-way chance. Latest win was off 12lb lower; mark edging up after three seconds during the winter.
3	3 (3) (12/1 +0%) Cavalry Master	12 12/1(+0%)	(3) Cavalry Master 12/1, Six wins from 22 NH runs. 8/1, fell in handicap chase at Leopardstown (28.3f, soft) 29 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. First-time blinkers had an effect when runner-up over 2m4f at Gowran on heavy in February.
2	2 (2) (12/1 -71%) Walk Away	12 12/1(-71%)	(2) Walk Away 12/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Punchestown (21.3f, soft, 11/2) 128 days ago. Trainer going well but this 11-y-o looks vulnerable. Some classy form in defeat over fences and ran well after a long absence last year.
5	5 (5) (14/1 +58%) Bodhisattva	14 14/1(+58%)	(5) Bodhisattva 14/1, Latest win in chase at Perth in May. 5/2, unseated rider in handicap chase at Perth (23.8f, heavy). Off 6 months. 3m winner at Perth last May for Gordon Elliott and fair efforts for this yard afterwards.
9	9 (9) (33/1 -50%) Salmanino	33 33/1(-50%)	(9) Salmanino 33/1, 10/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Cork (28f, soft) 148 days ago. Opposable. Won 2m6f beginners' on heavy ground at Punchestown in early 2023; poor form since.

BATTLE OF MIRBAT won over this trip at Wexford last summer and a return to this stamina test should suit after a consistent series of runs when filling the runner-up spot three times. The selection usually finishes well and was beaten less than two lengths by Brideswell Lad at Leopardstown last time with Birchdale just a neck away in third. Enda Bolger's charge won over the banks at Punchestown earlier this season. St Denis's Well has taken really well to fences winning three times but a 14lb hike for his latest success at Down Royal makes life more difficult while Macdermott has generally been let down by his jumping. Better Times Ahead won a valuable 2m7f novice handicap at Navan last spring and should benefit from his reappearance at Gowran.

It could be worth siding with BETTER TIMES AHEAD, who signed off last season with a decisive breakthrough success upped to 3m at Navan and he should be all the better for his reappearance spin at Gowran where he was returning from an 11-month absence. Robert Tyner's charge is unexposed as a stayer. Macdermott is untried beyond 21f but he remains open to improvement as a chaser and will be a threat if his jumping/stamina holds out here. St Denis's Well is also shortlisted.

The handicapper certainly hasn't missed ST DENIS'S WELL (nap) in recent starts but the 6yo is an idle type who can continue to progress

Info	Form	Odds
6	6 (6) (2/1 +43%) Redemption Day	2 2/1(+43%)	(6) Redemption Day 2/1, Lightly-raced winner in bumpers. 7/2, creditable 6¾ lengths third of 10 to Jeroboam Machin in Gr 2 bumper at Leopardstown (16f, soft) 58 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Worth a chance to capitalise on a drop in grade. Grade 1-placed in 2022 and back from long absence with two solid runs at Leopardstown.
2	2 (2) (2/1 -14%) Coco Masterpiece	2 2/1(-14%)	(2) Coco Masterpiece 2/1, Winning pointer who followed suit when landing an 11-runner bumper at Thurles on Rules debut. More to come and makes plenty of appeal. Beat stablemate and subsequent Champion Bumper fifth Fishery Lane at Thurles in February.
5	5 (5) (13/2 -136%) Patter Merchant	6.5 13/2(-136%)	(5) Patter Merchant 13/2, Won sole start in points. Also successful in 5-runner bumper at Leopardstown (16.2f, heavy, 1/2) on NH debut 95 days ago, pushed out. Another bold showing is on the cards. Just got the better of subsequent Champion Bumper fourth Sounds Victorius at Leopardstown.
3	3 (3) (7/1 -8%) Fleur In The Park	7 7/1(-8%)	(3) Fleur In The Park 7/1, Made a winning start at Roscommon and excellent efforts in second on each of his next 3 starts. Should give his running but may have to settle for minor honours again. Three seconds since winning debut at Roscommon in September; second to a good one at Naas.
1	1 (1) (10/1 -54%) Lieutenant Mayne	10 10/1(-54%)	(1) Lieutenant Mayne 10/1, Third in sole point last February and has looked potentially useful in winning his first two starts under Rules, again having something to spare at Uttoxeter last time. More on his plate here but can't be ruled out. Winner at Musselburgh in January and when making all at Uttoxeter (heavy) last month.
7	7 (7) (18/1 -13%) The Passing Wife	18 18/1(-13%)	(7) The Passing Wife 18/1, Winner in bumper at Punchestown in November. 7/1, fourth of 8 in bumper at Leopardstown (16f, soft) 94 days ago. Others have more potential. Long way behind runner-up Redemption Day when fourth at Leopardstown over Christmas.
4	4 (4) (20/1 +39%) Hens Tooth	20 20/1(+39%)	(4) Hens Tooth 20/1, Twice-raced winner in bumpers. 22¼ lengths eighth of 10 to Jeroboam Machin in Gr 2 bumper at Leopardstown (16f, soft, 40/1) 58 days ago. Stable having good spell. Uphill task. Won by 10l on rules debut at Limerick over Christmas; outclassed in Leopardstown Grade 2.

Redemption Day sets a high standard having finished second to Facile Vega in the Champion Bumper at the Punchestown Festival two years ago and following a lengthy layoff, has been placed on both outings this term including a Grade 2 at the Dublin Racing Festival. However, it looks significant that Patrick Mullins is aboard COCO MASTERPIECE who won a point-to-point for Stuart Crawford and his Thurles bumper win was given a big boost when the runner-up Fishery Lane ran a cracker at Cheltenham. Patter Merchant also won between the flags and on collateral form has probably achieved a similar level to the selection in beating Sounds Victorius at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting. Fleur In The Park is another to consider having filled the runner-up spot behind some useful types.

REDEMPTION DAY might not be quite as good as he looked in his first season but he still has enough ability to finish second in a Grade 2, so he should be capable of taking this down in class. The unbeaten Patter Merchant is an obvious danger and Coco Masterpiece, a stablemate of the selection, can't be ruled out.

Several have form with some who finished close up in the Cheltenham bumper and COCO MASTERPIECE is taken to build on his Thurles victory

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.
