1	10 1st (10) (8/1 +43%) Source Code		8 8/1(+43%)																															(10) Source Code 8/1, Blue Point colt. Not offered much in trio of maidens at up to 7f. Last of 13 on qualifying run at Leopardstown (7.1f, soft) 9 days ago. Pedigree an ongoing recommendation and application of blinkers may help now handicapping. Not discounted. Well beaten in three maidens but is likely to do better in this company with blinkers on.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/1 -100%) Unique Journey		7 7/1(-100%)																															(6) Unique Journey 7/1, Promising type. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, excellent third of 8 in nursery at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 8/1) 19 days ago, nearest finish. Steps up in trip now and he's one to be interested in. Best run when 3rd on nursery debut at Navan last time over 6f; big player if he stays.
3	14 3rd (14) (33/1 +18%) Prada's World		33 33/1(+18%)																															(14) Prada's World 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 11 in maiden at Naas (8f, good to soft, 200/1) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Soundly beaten in three maidens but is likely to do better in this company; cheekpieces.
4	13 4th (13) (18/1 -64%) Kilgharrahs Love		18 18/1(-64%)																															(13) Kilgharrahs Love 18/1, Dragon Pulse filly who stepped forward on previous efforts when third of 16 in nursery at Gowran (7f, heavy, 11/1) 7 days ago, running on. That may not prove her limit. Beaten 3l at Gowran last time over this trip but was raised 5lb for that so needs more.
5th	1 5th (1) (25/1 -39%) Moonhall Church		25 25/1(-39%)																															(1) Moonhall Church 25/1, Winner at Fairyhouse in September. 16/1, respectable sixth of 14 in nursery at Dundalk (7f) 10 days ago, keeping on final 100 yds. Merits respect with a repeat back on turf. Won a Fairyhouse claimer and not a bad Dundalk run last time; poor draw; ground unknown.
6th	8 6th (8) (12/1 +25%) Sunriseontheboyne		12 12/1(+25%)																															(8) Sunriseontheboyne 12/1, Winner at Killarney in August. 9/1, bit below form fifth of 12 in nursery at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft) 25 days ago, no extra over 1f out. Needs to pull out more. Won a Killarney nursery over 1m but held off higher marks since and needs more.
7th	9 7th (9) (9/1 +59%) Tilani		9 9/1(+59%)																															(9) Tilani 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 14 in maiden (125/1) at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Soundly beaten in three maidens but can do better in this company; watch market.
8th	4 8th (4) (8/1 +71%) Refreshment		8 8/1(+71%)																															(4) Refreshment 8/1, Son of Kodi Bear who left his debut effort behind when fifth of 11 in maiden at Navan (5.8f) in April. Below that level on qualifying run at Roscommon (7.7f) a month later but gelded ahead of return and another who may well step up now handicapping. Mild promise in three maidens earlier in year; gelded and back from a break.
9th	2 9th (2) (15/2 +17%) Runninsonofagun		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(2) Runninsonofagun 15/2, Winner at Navan in August. Respectable fourth of 9 in nursery at Leopardstown (8f, soft, 15/2) 9 days ago. Looks likely to give his running again. Won a maiden claimer at Navan but twice held in nurseries and needs more.
10th	16 10th (16) (33/1 +18%) Vovatia		33 33/1(+18%)																															(16) Vovatia 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, below form ninth of 16 in nursery at Gowran (7f, heavy) 7 days ago, never dangerous. Needs to step up plenty if she's to feature. Beaten a long way at Gowran on nursery debut last week and not easy to fancy.
11th	3 11th (3) (22/1 -38%) Junkyard Dog		22 22/1(-38%)																															(3) Junkyard Dog 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 13 in maiden (150/1) at Leopardstown (7.1f, soft) 9 days ago. In good hands and worth noting if the market speaks in his favour on handicap debut. Not beaten far in a Naas maiden but 25l behind at Leopardstown since; still considered.
12th	7 12th (7) (12/1 +57%) Merchants Arch		12 12/1(+57%)																															(7) Merchants Arch 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable seventh of 12 in nursery at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft, 33/1) 25 days ago, never better than midfield. Eased 3 lb ahead of this but he needs to pull out a little more. Tenderly handled when beaten 7l on nursery debut last time; likely capable of better.
13th	5 13th (5) (15/2 -25%) Now		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(5) Now 15/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable second of 12 in nursery at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft) 25 days ago, having to pick way through final 1f. Definite claims with a repeat. Beaten 1l at Bellewstown last time over 1m; the blinkers tried then are retained; player.
14th	11 14th (11) (20/1 -11%) Ottoman		20 20/1(-11%)																															(11) Ottoman 20/1, 12/1, twelfth of 16 in nursery at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 29 days ago, weakening 2f out. Needs to get back on track. Good runs in two nurseries but was poor at the Curragh last time and has to rebound.
15th	12 15th (12) (11/2 -10%) Your Call		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(12) Your Call 11/2, 4/1, good second of 16 in nursery at Gowran (7f, heavy) 7 days ago, headed over 1f out and keeping on. Claims with a repeat again partnered by Colin Keane. Not beaten far at Gowran last time over this trip but was raised 6lb so needs to find more.
16th	15 16th (15) (8/1 +43%) Coulstys Way		8 8/1(+43%)																															(15) Coulstys Way 8/1, Coulsty filly. Good fourth of 12 in nursery at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft, 20/1) 25 days ago, never nearer. Still early days but this drop back in trip may not suit ideally. Beaten 4l on nursery debut over 1m at Bellewstown off this mark; can run well again.

NOW was fitted with blinkers for the first time and had a number of these rivals behind when runner-up to Baltray Lady at Bellewstown earlier this month and hopefully the half-sister to Rip Van Winkle can cope with the likely testing conditions. Your Call was among those behind the selection at Bellewstown but has shown better form when ridden up with the pace including when second to Chica Guerrera at Gowran last Monday with Kilgharrahs Love less than a length behind in third. Danny Murphy sent out a double at Dundalk on Friday evening and has a chance here with Unique Journey, who was denied a clear run before finishing strongly at Navan earlier this month.

UNIQUE JOURNEY produced his best effort to date and left the distinct impression he can do better again when third on nursery debut at Navan (5.8f) 3 weeks ago, running on encouragingly when finally in the clear. He gets the nod to confirm the promise of that effort upped in trip, with Now and Your Call rating next best. Source Code is a handicap debutant to note with blinkers reached for.

A running on second over just short of a mile at Bellewstown last time, NOW should be suited by this stiff 7f and can get off the mark.

1	8 1st (8) (13/8 -30%) Dollerina		1.625 13/8(-30%)																															(8) Dollerina 13/8, Fairly useful filly. Respectable third of 12 in maiden at Gowran (8f, soft, 4/5). Off 6 months but yard in good form and she really should be a big factor in a race like this. Handles soft ground well and if fit enough after her break can get the job done today.
2	12 2nd (12) (18/1 -50%) Storm Averted		18 18/1(-50%)																															(12) Storm Averted 18/1, Lightly-raced filly. Eighth of 15 in maiden (8/1) at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Player if back to previous form. Placed in maidens over 7f and 8f but beaten a long way over almost 1m2f last week.
3	9 3rd (9) (9/4 +44%) Ina Mina		2.25 9/4(+44%)																															(9) Ina Mina 9/4, Fairly useful filly. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. Below form third of 15 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, heavy, 9/2) 7 days ago. Down in trip and one to take seriously. Stamina was probably stretched on testing ground at Gowran last week; drop in trip suit.
4	13 4th (13) (9/2 +36%) Whisper A Prayer		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(13) Whisper A Prayer 9/2, Creditable third of 9 in maiden (4/1) at Roscommon (7.5f, heavy) 69 days ago. Stabelmate Dollerina looks more likely. Beaten 5.25l at Roscommon over 7.5f last time, ground fine but needs to find more.
5th	11 5th (11) (66/1 +0%) Piatra Neamt		66 66/1(+0%)																															(11) Piatra Neamt 66/1, €38,000 yearling, New Bay filly. Half-sister to 1¼m/11f winner Liseo and French 9.7f-1½m winner Marfisa. By a quality sire and made 38,000euros as a yearling; could go well.
6th	1 6th (1) (33/1 -267%) Camachero		33 33/1(-267%)																															(1) Camachero 33/1, Lightly-raced gelding. Creditable fifth of 14 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 4/1) 19 days ago, having to pick way through. Back up in trip. Good runs over 6f; looks like this trip will suit and handles an ease in the ground.
7th	3 7th (3) (200/1 -300%) Khormor Syd		200 200/1(-300%)																															(3) Khormor Syd 200/1, Alhebayeb gelding. Dam 7f winner. Yard has very few 2yo runners; best watched for future reference.
8th	2 8th (2) (150/1 -355%) Desert Of The Sea		150 150/1(-355%)																															(2) Desert Of The Sea 150/1, 25/1, showed a bit amidst greenness when sixth of 12 in maiden at Naas (8f, good to soft) on debut 16 days ago. Open to progress. Beaten 19l on debut at Naas over a mile after racing keenly; best watched for now.
9th	4 9th (4) (16/1 +52%) Modern Talking		16 16/1(+52%)																															(4) Modern Talking 16/1, €210,000 yearling, 4,500 gns 3-y-o, Lope De Vega gelding. Dam, German 7f winner, half-sister to smart 1m-1¼m winner Calif. Well-bred but cost only 4,500gns out of Godolphin as a 3yo in July; still check market.
10th	10 10th (10) (33/1 +0%) Lanzerac		33 33/1(+0%)																															(10) Lanzerac 33/1, Last of 8 in maiden at Cork (6f, good to soft, 4/1) on debut. Off 160 days. Stable jockey is on a runner for another yard, so isn't high on the list today.
11th	5 11th (5) (15/2 +17%) Space Warrior		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(5) Space Warrior 15/2, Lightly-raced colt. Creditable fourth of 12 in maiden (20/1) at Killarney (8.1f, heavy) 21 days ago. Beaten 3l over a mile at Killarney last time on heavy ground; can be involved again.
12th	6 12th (6) (66/1 -371%) Woodlander		66 66/1(-371%)																															(6) Woodlander 66/1, Fifth of 7 in maiden at Leopardstown (9f, heavy, 12/1) on debut 8 days ago. Down in trip. Beaten 11l on recent debut at Leopardstown over 1m1f; should have improved from that.
13th	7 13th (7) (150/1 +0%) Eagles Whistle		150 150/1(+0%)																															(7) Eagles Whistle 150/1, Eleventh of 15 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, heavy, 150/1) on debut 7 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Down in trip. Well beaten on debut over just short of 1m2f at Gowran a week ago; best watched for now.

DOLLERINA was campaigned at a high level last year including when third in a Group 3 at Deauville last October and was far from disgraced on both maiden starts this spring. It's obviously a concern that the Territories filly has been absent for six months, but this looks a good opportunity to open her account. Ina Mina has a number of placed efforts to her name in maidens but was no match for the impressive Iseult Of Ireland at Gowran last week, while Camachero and Modern Talking are others to consider. The latter is by Lope De Vega out of a German Listed winner and the booking of Shane Foley catches the eye.

DOLLERINA failed to land the odds both starts in the spring but she's in excellent hands and is fancied to finally get it right on return to action. Ina Mina is the obvious danger, with Storm Averted a player if casting aside a lesser effort.

Though DOLLERINA(nap) didn't repeat the form of her Group race 2yo exploits in two starts this term, she can take this after time off.

1	4 1st (4) (8/1 +64%) Rhythm King		8 8/1(+64%)																															(4) Rhythm King 8/1, 50/1, nineteenth of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, soft). Off 175 days and has a lot to prove. Out of form since Gowran win last year, likes heavy but hard to fancy on recent form.
2	9 2nd (9) (7/2 +30%) Racing Royalty		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(9) Racing Royalty 7/2, Creditable 3¼ lengths third of 24 to Genuine Jim in handicap (11/2) at the Curragh (7f, soft) 6 days ago. Not taken lightly nudged up just 1 lb. Well-backed on latest and ran a good race, handles heavy but drawn wide, each-way chance.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/1 +7%) Lady Arwen		7 7/1(+7%)																															(3) Lady Arwen 7/1, 5/1, creditable fourth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) 7 days ago. Well weighted these days. Fine effort last week at Gowran, ran well here in August, has never won on heavy ground.
4	8 4th (8) (15/2 -25%) Kinda Tiny		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(8) Kinda Tiny 15/2, Won this race a year ago and also successful at Gowran in September. 13/2, creditable sixth of 25 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Last year's winner, 12lb higher now, a career best will be required from a wide draw.
5th	11 5th (11) (12/1 -20%) Royal Pippen		12 12/1(-20%)																															(11) Royal Pippen 12/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2021. Below form 8 lengths seventh of 24 to Genuine Jim in handicap at the Curragh (7f, soft, 8/1) 6 days ago, never nearer. Hinting at a return to form, has run well here off much higher marks, worth a market check.
6th	2 6th (2) (7/1 +7%) Goldrush Kid		7 7/1(+7%)																															(2) Goldrush Kid 7/1, 4/1, good second of 15 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) 7 days ago, well positioned. Likely to be in the mix again. Has improved in cheekpieces, same mark as when second at Gowran last week, shortlisted.
7th	13 7th (13) (14/1 -75%) Madame Plaintiff		14 14/1(-75%)																															(13) Madame Plaintiff 14/1, 6/1, good third of 15 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) 7 days ago. Can remain competitive. 4lb lower than when winning in April, best run since on latest, decent draw, go well again.
8th	7 8th (7) (20/1 +50%) Lust		20 20/1(+50%)																															(7) Lust 20/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 12/1 and blinkered for 1st time, eighth of 11 in handicap at Naas (10.4f, good to soft) 15 days ago, doing too much too soon. Significantly back down in trip. Listed winner has lost his form, 0-9 for current yard, mark falling but hard to fancy.
9th	15 9th (15) (11/1 -47%) Pimstrel		11 11/1(-47%)																															(15) Pimstrel 11/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy, 5/1) 8 days ago, despite being slowly away. Further 7 lb rise asks for even more in hat-trick bid. C&D winner on a hat-trick, wide draw, never won off a mark this high but can't dismiss.
10th	1 10th (1) (25/1 -56%) Shawaamekh		25 25/1(-56%)																															(1) Shawaamekh 25/1, Twenty one runs since last win in 2022. Twelfth of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 25/1) 23 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form eased in class. Veteran, runner up over C&D on heavy off 4lb higher in August 2023, could go well.
11th	16 11th (16) (14/1 +22%) Pink Oxalis		14 14/1(+22%)																															(16) Pink Oxalis 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, below form seventeenth of 27 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 11 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Promise in maidens and on handicap debut, poor on latest, wide draw, others more likely.
12th	5 12th (5) (28/1 -27%) Sinbad My Dad		28 28/1(-27%)																															(5) Sinbad My Dad 28/1, 16/1, below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Naas (10.4f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Looks competitive on form. Is 0-11 on turf, sole place over 1m2f on good, this trip may not suit, others more likely.
13th	12 13th (12) (12/1 +14%) Charlie Brow'n		12 12/1(+14%)																															(12) Charlie Brow'n 12/1, Fourth of 16 in handicap at Listowel (8f, good to soft, 40/1) 35 days ago, nearest finish. Drop back in trip therefore far from certain to suit. 0-6, best turf run on latest at Listowel on good ground, place chance if handles heavy.
14th	14 14th (14) (22/1 +56%) Mogwli		22 22/1(+56%)																															(14) Mogwli 22/1, Latest win at Bellewstown in October. 50/1, below form 9½ lengths tenth of 24 to Genuine Jim in handicap at the Curragh (7f, soft) 6 days ago. Usual visor back on. Six-time winner, hard to predict, poor runs the last twice, needs to bounce back; visored.
15th	10 15th (10) (150/1 -20%) Takeachancejimmy		150 150/1(-20%)																															(10) Takeachancejimmy 150/1, Last of 15 in handicap (80/1) at Gowran (8f, good to soft) 55 days ago. No win since July 2022, well-handicapped but out of form, very testing ground a worry.
16th	6 16th (6) (12/1 +14%) Little Keilee		12 12/1(+14%)																															(6) Little Keilee 12/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 8/1, shaped better than the result against the far rail when eighth of 27 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Went close on penultimate at Roscommon, has form here, fourth in this last year, claims.

RACING ROYALTY won twice over this trip on soft ground last autumn and after dropping down in the ratings this year, indicated another win could be imminent when shaping well in two recent outings at the Curragh including when third to Genuine Jim (third reserve here) in a 24-runner event with Royal Pippen and Mogwli both behind. There isn't much to choose between Goldrush Kid and Madame Plaintiff on their running behind Thrifty Of Digby at Gowran last Monday, while Charlie Brow'n showed promise at Listowel last month and the booking of Colin Keane looks significant. Lady Arwen, Little Keilee and Pimstrel are others for the shortlist.

Any number to consider, but KINDA TINY won this race a year ago and while she's a lot higher in the weights this time, she may well be up to the task. Racing Royalty, Pimstrel and Goldrush Kid all demand respect.

Preference is for LITTLE KEILEE who finished fourth behind Kinda Tiny in this in 2023 and is much better off at the weights now.

2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +0%) Jabbar		4 4/1(+0%)																															(6) Jabbar 4/1, Five wins from 17 Flat runs. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Excellent third of 20 in handicap at Naas (16.1f, good to soft, 15/2) 15 days ago, never nearer. Back down in trip. Shortlist material given form he's in under both codes. In form, fine effort in hot 2m handicap latest, heavy an unknown, go well if handles it.
3	4 3rd (4) (4/1 +43%) Soul Of Spain		4 4/1(+43%)																															(4) Soul Of Spain 4/1, Career best when winning 7-runner maiden at Thurles (16.4f, good, 2/1) 18 days ago, soon clear.

4	3 4th (3) (18/1 -125%) Clear Quartz		18 18/1(-125%)																															(3) Clear Quartz 18/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Career best when winning 12-runner minor event (7/2) at this course (8.4f, good) 48 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Won here three times over shorter including a rated race latest, up 7lb, stamina concern.
5th	14 5th (14) (9/1 +55%) Diyaba		9 9/1(+55%)																															(14) Diyaba 9/1, Bit below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Bellewstown (12.3f, soft, 13/2) 26 days ago. Good run over C&D on stable bow in August, handles heavy, could go well if ridden quietly.
6th	13 6th (13) (13/2 +46%) Alfalfa		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(13) Alfalfa 13/2, One win from 21 Flat runs. Creditable sixth of 20 in handicap (7/2) at the Curragh (10f, soft) 6 days ago, nearest finish. Good efforts over shorter the last twice, up in trip, handles testing ground, can go well.
7th	12 7th (12) (11/1 +50%) Narlita		11 11/1(+50%)																															(12) Narlita 11/1, Eleventh of 15 in handicap (11/2) at the Curragh (12f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Weak-finishing efforts becoming a concern. Second in this last year, same mark now, poor the last twice but could revive, chance.
8th	9 8th (9) (25/1 -194%) Pachmena		25 25/1(-194%)																															(9) Pachmena 25/1, 12/1, won 19-runner handicap at the Curragh (14f, good to soft) 11 days ago. This is a deeper race and drop in trip isn't sure to suit. Won last time out at the Curragh, up 6lb, never won off this high, others better treated.
9th	2 9th (2) (40/1 -150%) No Niki No		40 40/1(-150%)																															(2) No Niki No 40/1, Latest win at Sligo in August. 18¾ lengths fourteenth of 16 to Caught U Looking in listed race at Naas (12f, good to soft, 80/1) 15 days ago. Others more persuasive for all this a more realistic assignment. Is 7-32, won at Sligo in August, never won off a mark this high and ground a worry.
10th	8 10th (8) (18/1 +18%) Morse		18 18/1(+18%)																															(8) Morse 18/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Leopardstown (12f, heavy) 8 days ago. That was disappointing on the back of an excellent runner-up effort. Won on heavy at Leopardstown in April, will like the ground, needs more off current mark.
11th	10 11th (10) (33/1 -18%) Edge Of Darkness		33 33/1(-18%)																															(10) Edge Of Darkness 33/1, 5/1, first run since leaving Denis Hogan when bit below form tenth of 17 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft) 30 days ago. Given a chance by the assessor back on the level. Dual-purpose, beaten 15l in a maiden hurdle on stable debut, needs more to win this.
12th	16 12th (16) (33/1 +0%) Rain		33 33/1(+0%)																															(16) Rain 33/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Respectable 8¾ lengths eleventh of 19 to Pachmena in handicap at the Curragh (14f, good to soft, 22/1) 11 days ago, not clear run. Others more persuasive. No win since October 2022, no impact in last two runs, trip a worry, others preferred.
13th	1 13th (1) (18/1 -140%) Dutch Gold		18 18/1(-140%)																															(1) Dutch Gold 18/1, Third of 17 in juvenile hurdle at Cork (17.3f, good, 10/1) 170 days ago. Off 170 days. Useful on the Flat and Colin Keane is back in the saddle. Won off 6lb lower a year ago, not seen since maiden hurdle third in May, best watched.
14th	5 14th (5) (10/1 +38%) Oriole		10 10/1(+38%)																															(5) Oriole 10/1, Latest win over C&D in August. Eighth of 11 in handicap at Leopardstown (12f, heavy, 17/2) 8 days ago and needs to leave that effort well behind. C&D winner off 6lb lower, no impact off revised mark last twice, testing ground a worry.
15th	11 15th (11) (16/1 +52%) Pearl Of Australia		16 16/1(+52%)																															(11) Pearl Of Australia 16/1, 16/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, thirteenth of 15 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good) 67 days ago, not ideally placed. Significantly back up in trip. Ran okay over C&D in August, poor on latest, tongue tie left off, testing ground a worry.
16th	7 16th (7) (14/1 +0%) Ob La Di		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) Ob La Di 14/1, Lightly-raced winner. 28/1, 14 lengths eleventh of 15 to Beechwood in listed race at this course (12f, good) 48 days ago. Handicaps more suitable and he's in good hands but opening mark does look high. Off the mark at Bellewstown, struggled in a C&D Listed latest, big ask on handicap debut.

ALFALFA won over this trip at Thurles last autumn but missed most of this season before again showing promise recently on soft ground. The selection was beaten less than a length behind Bear Profit at Naas and will appreciate this step up in trip after again finishing well over 1m2f at the Curragh last week. Jabbar is an obvious threat having added to two Flat wins this year by taking a maiden hurdle at this venue before a highly creditable third to Comfort Zone in a valuable Flat handicap at Naas last time. Clear Quartz recorded a third course win last month but is unproven at this trip, while Soul Of Spain and recent Gowran winner Fairy Wings are others to note.

JABBAR is in the form of his life at present, recording an excellent placed effort in a high-level handicap at Naas a fortnight ago. He can continue the good work and regain the winning thread, with Dutch Gold and Fairy Wings feared most.

It might be worth chancing NARLITA. She was runner-up in this race last year off this mark and she handles heavy ground.

CAFE CON LECHE has gained all four previous wins over hurdles and with plenty of cut in the ground but may finally open his account on the Flat. The eight-year-old has dropped down to a competitive mark and was only headed close home by Kool One over 1m6f at Navan last Wednesday. Colin Keane now takes over in the saddle and gets the vote over the in-form Gotta Catch'em All who beat all bar the odds-on Prairie Angel at Bellewstown and was just touched off at the Curragh last time. Nans View won a 20-runner 1m2f handicap at the Curragh last Tuesday and looks sure to go close if staying this longer trip, while King Of The Bronx and Ifitwasme appear best of the remainder.

The vote goes to CAFE CON LECHE, who looked more straightforward than usual and turned in his best effort for some time when collared close home at Navan last week. He is very appealing turned out again quickly off the same mark. Gotta Catch'em All failed by a whisker in a big-field handicap at the Curragh recently and is feared most ahead of Saith Seren.

Narrow preference is for CARRIED WITH LOVE. She is bred to relish this step up in trip and the testing ground should be fine for her.

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.
