Plenty of recent course form to consider and perhaps RAGMANS CORNER can successfully revert to hurdles following his third to Filey Bay in the valuable Connacht Hotel Handicap here on Monday. The Gerry Keane-trained gelding appears versatile in terms of ground conditions winning twice over hurdles last season and has progressed well since on the Flat taking a 21-runner handicap at Navan. Punchestown maiden hurdle winner Castleheath dead-heated over an extended mile here on Tuesday, while Battle Of Ridgeway is one for the shortlist on his second at the Punchestown Festival. There is little to choose between Son Of Hypnos, Half A Chance and Eyeeye on running behind Jerrari over C&D on Monday.

Several of these have run well at the meeting. RAGMANS CORNER came home strongly for third in Monday's amateur race and gets the vote

DUKE SILVER won over 2m4f at Wexford last autumn and may have scope for improvement over this trip. The Joseph O'Brien-trained gelding finished strongly when beating all bar Duty Bound at Killarney last month. Chance Another One has been raised 20lb for a facile win at Ballinrobe and riding arrangements suggest he's preferred to Artic Gale, who was a creditable third over 2m6f here on Wednesday. Greatness Awaits is on a hat-trick and had Bitofajokelike and Coole Cherry behind when scoring at Killarney, while Nytol is also bidding for a hat-trick after scoring twice at Cork including over this trip.

In a highly competitive race, BILLY LEE SWAGGER is put forward as an each-way suggestion based on a Punchestown festival fourth

Blood Destiny is a smart sort over fences having beaten Spillane's Tower in a Grade 3 over 2m at Navan last year and took advantage of a good opportunity when long odds-on over 2m3f at Listowel last time. However, this step up in trip may stretch his stamina and preference is for ZANAHIYR. The classy Gordon Elliott-trained gelding was placed in the 2023 Champion Hurdle and only beaten a length when third to Pinkerton over C&D in the Plate last year. He kept on into seventh behind stablemate Western Fold in the latest renewal of the Plate on Wednesday. Yeats Star looks best of the remainder.

Best treated at these weights is Blood Destiny. However, he may be vulnerable in a duel with Wednesday's Plate seventh ZANAHIYR

ARCTIC FLY returned to form following a winter break when successful at Tipperary last month with Aeros Luck and Good As Hell both behind. The selection's five career wins include a Listed novice hurdle at this venue and she gets the vote over Sea Music, who won a valuable 2m4f handicap at the Punchestown Festival and was a creditable fifth behind Western Fold in the Plate here on Wednesday Others to consider include consistent top-weight The Banger Doyle and Nas Na Riogh.

A pleasing run over hurdles last time gives THE DASHER CONWAY a chance off a mark 10lb lower than last year, when he finished second

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

Carrying a 7lb penalty for winning the feature on Tuesday, it certainly won't be easy for DUNUM. However, his impressive course record is difficult to ignore and having claimed this race in 2023, he finished a gallant third when attempting to defend his crown 12 months ago. A place ahead of the selection in last year's renewal, Hurricane Ivor is of definite interest and will appreciate easy underfoot conditions. Just held in a Listed event here on Thursday, Princess Child is likely to have plenty of supporters, while Scurry winner Go Athletico, top-weight Bravais (first-time cheekpieces) and Tony Martin's Orandi are other leading hopes. The UK challenge looks strong, with Partisan Hero, Persuasion and Apiarist all making the journey.

Dunum and Orandi reoppose from Tuesday but preference is for Thursday's unlucky Listed second PRINCESS CHILD

Four of these faced off at Leopardstown last month, with Noel Meade's Joltin faring best in second. LUCIA MOLLY was just a short head behind in third and, now 2lb better off at the weights, she might be able to reverse the form. Coming from off the pace when well supported for that Foxrock heat, Bang Bang, who is also trained by Meade, was an eyecatching fifth. Sure to come on plenty for that initial effort, she can be expected to get even closer. Sutton Hoo is the most interesting of the newcomers, with the 65,000-euro purchase holding a Goffs Million entry. Representing top connections, Duke Of Cumberland and Slaudeen are others worthy of respect.

Four of these contested a similar Leopardstown event last month, of which BANG BANG could prove the value here

Trained in Shropshire by proud Galway native David Loughnane, THIS FARH has already won twice this year and was a close third at Chester on his most recent start. Although the ground is a bit of an unknown, his dam did win on heavy. Towards the bottom of the handicap, Tilani is of definite interest. An encouraging third when last seen at Leopardstown, he will be well fancied to go a few places better. Third, fourth and fifth behind It'sneverjustone on Monday, Highbury See See, Gangsta Man and Fiona Maccoul are others worthy of respect in this competitive heat.

Value may be had in PALLATINE HILLS, who showed improvement dropped in trip last time and for whom this further drop could suit

One of two Willie Mullins-trained representatives in the line-up, AL ARRIVEE could prove hard to beat. The choice of Patrick Mullins, she is a half-sister to dual Cheltenham Gold Cup hero Al Boum Photo. While she met trouble in running when a beaten favourite on debut here last season, she has since opened her account in style at Sligo in June. Doctor Steinberg is the other Mullins contender and after an easy win at Ballinrobe in May, it won't come as a huge surprise if he makes a race of it with his stable companion. A well-backed winner at Killarney in August last year, it'll be interesting to see how Murat fares, while UK raider American Empire and the Emmet Mullins-trained Minella Emperor are others to keep on side.

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.
