(4) Eagle's Quest 12/1, Showed some improvement when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Effective at 2m; latest form looks strong and he has an outside chance on that evidence.
Some promise when sixth of 22 at Leopardstown last month; stable in form.

7th (9) Thewaybackhome (125/1 -89%)
Thewaybackhome

125
125/1(-89%)
(9) Thewaybackhome 125/1, Modest debut when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel. Showed promise in points but needs to improve to feature under rules.
Runner-up in one of his 4 point-to-point starts; never a factor on rules debut at Clonmel.
LTO Selection:

CHAMPAGNE JURY finished behind Dunleer Crystal on his last run, but might turn around the form and defy top weight. Runner-up to a now 141-rated chaser in a point-to-point in November 2024, he had some useful form last season, including winning a bumper in testing ground at Naas. While he finished three lengths behind Dunleer Crystal at Down Royal and the pair meet on the same terms, that was the selection's first run for 240 days and progression is likely. Ifallgoeswell finished a useful second at Thurles on Sunday and will relish conditions.

IFALLGOESWELL is turned out quickly after being nabbed late on at Thurles on Sunday and should be difficult to reel in down in trip

Milanaway

20
20/1(+39%)
(17) Milanaway 20/1, Won by 2l off a 5lb lower mark at Punchestown two runs ago; effective around 3m and remains well treated on chase form; may have a bit more to offer now he has got his head in front.
Made all at Punchestown on her penultimate run; trip probably too short at Limerick.
LTO Selection:

KINGKONG CIERGUES is a heavy-ground stayer who is an able type in handicaps. Winner of a 2024 point-to-point, he disappointed on his initial hurdles outings but has been running consistently well more recently, with the form of his Fairyhouse success boosted by both the runner-up and third scoring subsequently. Joyau De Thiax also relishes testing conditions and should compete now 6lb higher than when winning at Limerick. The Lovely Man returned following almost a year off for a new yard in November and although a 10-race maiden over hurdles, he increased his chase rating to 124 with his Navan victory and goes off 114 here.

The form of KINGKONG CIERGUES's decisive Fairyhouse win has worked out really well and he's fancied to defy an 8lb rise

Won this last year, below best at Leopardstown after a spell over fences, may bounce back.
LTO Selection:

13:45 Gowran Park (Class 1) 23f Race Class Flow

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

There are reasons to oppose high-class chaser GERRI COLOMBE on his hurdling return and following a Christmas disappointment, but it is significant that Jack Kennedy rides him over in-form stablemate Staffordshire Knot. Runner-up in the 2024 Cheltenham Gold Cup, he flopped on his recent Leopardstown return following a long layoff but with cheekpieces now applied, he should improve dramatically. Much of his form is at spring festivals, but he likes testing ground. Home By The Lee would ideally prefer a sounder surface and has top weight, while Rocky's Diamond won last year's renewal but now carries a 5lb penalty and was well held last time.

Last year's winner ROCKY'S DIAMOND has suffered reverses this term. If back on song, he could be hard to beat

12/1(-20%)
(1) Just For One 12/1, Improved when second beaten 4l in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time; effective at 2m3f and probably prefers some cut in the ground; appears to be running into form.
Career-best when second of 15 in Limerick maiden on latest (2m3f, soft to heavy); claims.
LTO Selection:

KING BOB looks capable of landing one of these off a lowly mark. The Irish Wells gelding has made up plenty of ground on his last two outings and moved into contention nicely at Punchestown turning for home before flattening out to finish third. He remains on the same rating and may be able to confirm form with Bruno From Mars, who was half a length behind after racing more prominently. Coffeys Forge was bang in contention when making a bad mistake at the last at Clonmel a fortnight ago. He has to be considered, although dropping back in trip doesn't look ideal.

A chance is taken on MICKEY HULIE, who wasn't without support on his handicap debut and the application of a tongue-tie might help

(9) Raffles Dolce Vita 11/1, Keen and outpaced but ran to form when fourth, beaten 31l, in the Drinmore Novice Chase (Grade 1) at Fairyhouse last time. Effective around 2m and handles soft ground. Likely to be more competitive dropped in grade.
Made a fair start to chasing career at Naas, out of his depth in the Drinmore.

(4) Harvard Guy 40/1, Keen and outpaced when comfortably held in a novice chase at Punchestown last time, not suited by the drop in trip. Effective from 2½–3m and handles soft ground. A progressive hurdler last year who can improve over further fences.
Useful hurdler at this trip, modest chase form over shorter, major improvement required.

Haveigotnewsforyou

80
80/1(-142%)
(5) Haveigotnewsforyou 80/1, Benefited from a drop in class and better ground when winning a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan by a neck last time. Effective over 2½m and acts on any surface. Yard's horses often improve for fences, though he may just need this first chase run.
Absent since a maiden hurdle win in May 2024, faces a huge task against that background.
LTO Selection:

Willie Mullins saddles three and FUNICULI FUNICULA looks the pick. The six-year-old was turned over at a short price on his chase debut at Naas last month, but may step forward from that outing. He was placed in Grade 1 company at Aintree last season and remains a nice prospect over fences. King Alexander was a couple of lengths in front of his stablemate at Naas, but it looks significant that Paul Townend sticks with the selection. Classy staying hurdler The Wallpark hasn't shown much in his three outings over fences to date, but is surely capable of better.

Paul Townend sticks with FUNICULI FUNICULA (nap), so there is a good case for thinking he can reverse Naas form with King Alexander

LTO Selection:

15:30 Gowran Park (Class 1) 25f Race Class Flow

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

Willie Mullins has won this with some classy horses in recent years and Scottish National hero CAPTAIN CODY can land another prestigious prize. The eight-year-old has had two nice runs this season and looks well placed to score. He was a commendable third in Grade 1 company on his return before finishing seventh in the Paddy Power at Leopardstown over Christmas. A stiffer test of stamina will suit. Mullins also saddles top-weight High Class Hero, who ran well on his return at Punchestown in November and should appreciate stepping back up in trip. The in-form Better Times Ahead has a nice weight and is another to consider in a typically open renewal.

It could pay to take a chance with JORDANS, who held his own in Group 1 novice chases and has warmed for this over hurdles

(5) Infinity Succes 6/1, Stable took this race last year. Showed greenness and made mistakes when well beaten in a juvenile hurdle at Cork on debut. Blinkers are applied for the first time. Effective at 2m on good ground and can progress if ridden more positively.
Half-sister to Balder Succes, stable won this in 2025, unplaced in a hurdle, blinkered now.
LTO Selection:

Gaelic Warrior's brother OUR TRIGGER is a fascinating debutant here. The Maxios gelding, bought for 60,000 euros as a foal, is sure to know his job and Willie Mullins has a decent record in this bumper. Hygge has experience under his belt, having been third in two academy hurdles. He has to be respected but it wouldn't be a surprise if his stablemate Huntin Boots turned out to be the bigger danger. The Gigginstown-owned gelding is a son of Walk In The Park and cost 160,000 euros as a store. He is out of a winning half-sister to dual Grade 1 winner Identity Thief.

A brother to Gaelic Warrior, OUR TRIGGER gets the vote to see off a two-pronged challenge from the Gordon Elliott team

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.
