14:10 Gowran Park Maiden Hurdle 16f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (2/5 +40%) Angostura	0.4 2/5(+40%)	(1) Angostura 2/5, Promising sort. Second of 14 in maiden hurdle (7/1) at Navan (15.7f, heavy) on NH debut 27 days ago, travelling as well as any. Obvious claims. Modest point form but plenty to like about his rules debut and could take some beating.
2	16 2nd (16) (11/4 -10%) Tranquil Sea	2.75 11/4(-10%)	(16) Tranquil Sea 11/4, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good second of 6 in juvenile hurdle (3/1) at Punchestown (16.1f, heavy) 40 days ago. Solid chance. Best run yet when 2nd in 6-runner Punchestown contest; jumping could improve.
3	8 3rd (8) (66/1 -164%) Moudan	66 66/1(-164%)	(8) Moudan 66/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 14 in novice hurdle (125/1) at Fairyhouse (20f, heavy) on NH debut 45 days ago. Tailed off when 125s for debut over 2m4f at Fairyhouse; jumping lacked fluency.
4	13 4th (13) (150/1 -50%) Rauzan	150 150/1(-50%)	(13) Rauzan 150/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Twice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 13 in juvenile hurdle at this C&D (heavy) 21 days ago. Modest Flat performer who has shown nothing at huge prices in maiden hurdle company.
5th	5 5th (5) (125/1 -150%) Glasgow Dan	125 125/1(-150%)	(5) Glasgow Dan 125/1, Imperial Monarch gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler/chaser who became temperamental Boyhood, stayed 31f. Dam unraced. No show in 3 starts between the flags. Shown very little in points and pedigree suggests he may want further than this.
6th	2 6th (2) (33/1 -65%) Bernie's Legacy	33 33/1(-65%)	(2) Bernie's Legacy 33/1, Alianthus gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful 17f chase winner in France Hirson. Dam ran once on Flat in France. Market should point the way. Alianthus gelding; cost 5,500eur as 3yo; half-brother to French chase winner; best watched.
7th	4 7th (4) (66/1 +34%) Farrokh	66 66/1(+34%)	(4) Farrokh 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, twenty-second of 25 in novice hurdle at Naas (15.6f, heavy) 13 days ago. Only 15-2 for his debut but was tailed off and same result twice since at huge prices.
8th	6 8th (6) (9/1 +10%) Hypersonic Missile	9 9/1(+10%)	(6) Hypersonic Missile 9/1, Promising type. Fairly useful winner at 17f in bumpers. 25/1, below form tenth of 16 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.7f, heavy) 17 days ago. May well do better. Bumper winner for John McConnell but hasn't matched that in 3 starts for this yard.
9th	15 9th (15) (20/1 +39%) Tannery Park	20 20/1(+39%)	(15) Tannery Park 20/1, Making GB/IRE jumps debut. Thirteenth of 15 in maiden (200/1) at this course (7f, good to soft). Off 10 months. Golden Horn gelding who has shown nothing in 4 Flat runs; not an obvious jumps pedigree.
10th	10 10th (10) (125/1 -681%) Springboard	125 125/1(-681%)	(10) Springboard 125/1, €12,000 3-y-o, Kingston Hill gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Howdyalikemenow. Dam winning pointer. Probably best watched on this occasion. Kingston Hill gelding; dam point winter and he may need further.
11th	11 11th (11) (33/1 -136%) Tommies Call	33 33/1(-136%)	(11) Tommies Call 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. 28/1, sixth of 12 in novice hurdle at Thurles (15.6f, soft) on hurdles bow 25 days ago. Placed in valuable Fairyhouse bumper but shown nothing in 3 runs since incl' hurdle bow.
12th	3 12th (3) (200/1 -100%) Diamondfranticsoup	200 200/1(-100%)	(3) Diamondfranticsoup 200/1, Once-raced maiden. Last of 25 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Naas (15.6f, heavy) on NH debut 13 days ago. Jumped poorly when 150-1 for his debut 13 days ago and was tailed off; best watched.
13th	14 13th (14) (25/1 -56%) Rocky's Diamond	25 25/1(-56%)	(14) Rocky's Diamond 25/1, €20,000 3-y-o, Altruistic gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/chaser The Little Yank, stays 25f, and fairly useful hurdler Dedanann. Wears tongue strap. One to note in the betting. Half-brother to 3 winners incl' The Little Yank; headgear probably not a good sign.
14th	9 14th (9) (125/1 -213%) Nelsoria	125 125/1(-213%)	(9) Nelsoria 125/1, Mount Nelson gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to Auronzo (2m-2¼m hurdle/chase winner in Italy) out of prolific Italian jumps winner Fedian. Entitled to come on for the run. Mount Nelson gelding; unraced dam half-sister to Auronzo; this looks tough on debut.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (125/1 -213%) Stumblin In	125 125/1(-213%)	(12) Stumblin In 125/1, Shantou mare. Dam 17f hurdle/chase winner in France. Doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner on paper. Shantou mare; 6,500eur foal; up against it on debut.

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

This looks a good opportunity for ANGOSTURA. Out of three-time victor Tearsofclewbay, the five-year-old ran in two point-to-points when in the care of Ian McCarthy. Third at Boulta in December, he was a place ahead of subsequent Dromahane winner Good N' Kind, with that one a leading hope in the bumper. Beaten by just half-a-length on his debut for Gordon Elliott in a much stronger contest at Navan last month, the selection will be widely expected to go a place better now. Getting a weight allowance on account of his age, Tranquil Sea is the obvious danger. He ran his best race to date when second in handicap company at Punchestown in January and back in calmer waters now, another bold bid looks likely. A son of eight-time winner Jennies Jewel, Tommies Call has been disappointing since finishing a fine third on debut in the valuable Tattersalls Ireland Sales Bumper and he is probably best watched for now. Declan Queally is double-handed through point-to-point winner Manatee Du Brizais and newcomer Rocky's Diamond, with the latter a half-brother to The Little Yank (runs in the fourth). Barry Connell also saddles two, Farrokh and Tannery Park, and in a race of this quality they both warrant respect.

ANGOSTURA made a promising start under Rules when runner-up in a Navan maiden last month and, with the likelihood of better to come, he is taken to go one better here. Tranquil Sea is the obvious danger on the back of his near-miss at Punchestown, while bumper winner Hypersonic Missile has yet to make an impact in this sphere but he nevertheless remains of interest, while Rocky's Diamond could be the pick of the newcomers.

It's hard to get away form ANGOSTURA who sets a solid standard on form and he may be too good for these rivals

14:10 Gowran Park Maiden Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:45 Gowran Park Maiden Hurdle 16f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	10 1st (10) (7/1 +65%) Queen Nel	7 7/1(+65%)	(10) Queen Nel 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Sixth of 12 in novice hurdle at Tramore (16.2f, soft, 100/1) 102 days ago. Tramore sixth provides mild encouragement, more likely as one for handicaps in due course..
2	3 2nd (3) (5/2 -25%) Jokers 'n' Clowns	2.5 5/2(-25%)	(3) Jokers 'n' Clowns 5/2, Won point on debut. 10/3, unseated her rider at start in maiden hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) on NH debut 7 days ago. Has a hood added now. Point winner, misbehaved at the start when well-fancied for hurdling debut at Navan.
3	9 3rd (9) (13/2 -8%) Penelope's Charm	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(9) Penelope's Charm 13/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 7/2, last of 9 in bumper at Limerick (16f, heavy) in October but placed twice last spring. Makes hurdle debut back from another break. Retains potential. Two of her three bumper runs indicated potential, something amiss at Limerick in October.
4	8 4th (8) (2/1 -45%) Pallas Athene	2 2/1(-45%)	(8) Pallas Athene 2/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Very disappointing when pulled up at Clonmel (18.9f, heavy) last time but sets the standard on her fourths at Limerick and Punchestown prior to that. Given another chance. Point winner, two encouraging hurdle runs, has questions to answer after Clonmel flop.
5th	13 5th (13) (33/1 -65%) Shanlaylin	33 33/1(-65%)	(13) Shanlaylin 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 14 in bumper at Galway (18f, good to soft, 125/1). Off 7 months. Makes hurdles debut. Showed some ability in bumpers last year but not an obvious contender on jumping debut.
6th	12 6th (12) (9/2 +55%) Sadies Diamond	4.5 9/2(+55%)	(12) Sadies Diamond 9/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 25/1 and hooded for 1st time, fourth of 8 in bumper at this course (17f, heavy) 21 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Second at 66-1 in a good-ground bumper at Wexford last June, yet to replicate that form.
7th	14 7th (14) (40/1 -300%) Spanish Maid	40 40/1(-300%)	(14) Spanish Maid 40/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Fell in novice hurdle (150/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) on hurdles bow 31 days ago. Was in the process of running well when falling two out on hurdling debut at Fairyhouse.
8th	16 8th (16) (150/1 +0%) Whatyouwant	150 150/1(+0%)	(16) Whatyouwant 150/1, Once-raced maiden. Eleventh of 16 in novice hurdle at Limerick (20f, heavy, 80/1) on NH debut 73 days ago. Big price when finishing towards the rear in a 2m4f race in this category at Limerick.
9th	2 9th (2) (40/1 +60%) Dont Tell Shirley	40 40/1(+60%)	(2) Dont Tell Shirley 40/1, Once-raced maiden. 80/1, fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (22.4f, heavy) on NH debut 17 days ago. Down in trip. Pulled up in a point, remote fourth of seven finishers on hurdling debut at Punchestown.
10th	1 10th (1) (50/1 +0%) Diamond Nora	50 50/1(+0%)	(1) Diamond Nora 50/1, Once-raced maiden. Hooded tongue strap on, twentieth of 25 in novice hurdle at Naas (15.6f, heavy, 25/1) on NH debut 13 days ago. Won small-field maiden point, made little impression on hurdling debut at Naas.
11th	11 11th (11) (25/1 +75%) Rebel Cowgirl	25 25/1(+75%)	(11) Rebel Cowgirl 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, fell in novice hurdle at Cork (16f, heavy) 63 days ago. Has struggled in maidens so far though she was in touch when falling four out at Cork.
12th	15 12th (15) (125/1 -25%) Volez Vous	125 125/1(-25%)	(15) Volez Vous 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy, 150/1) 31 days ago. Unlikely to be good enough on the evidence of outings at Naas and Fairyhouse.
13th	6 13th (6) (50/1 -257%) Mayos Vendangeur	50 50/1(-257%)	(6) Mayos Vendangeur 50/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. 100/1, sixth of 12 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) on hurdles bow 7 days ago. Not a bad effort on her hurdling debut at Navan last week, needs to jump better.
14th	7 14th (7) (80/1 -220%) Miss Direct	80 80/1(-220%)	(7) Miss Direct 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 14 in bumper (11/1) at Down Royal (16.8f, good). Off 9 months. Makes hurdles debut. Hooded for 1st time. First of two bumper runs was quite promising, hooded now for her hurdling debut.
15th	17 15th (17) (25/1 +0%) Connemara Shore	25 25/1(+0%)	(17) Connemara Shore 25/1, Malinas filly. Half-sister to fair 2½m hurdle winner Magheralin Mick. Dam (b93), bumper winner, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 33f) Golden Chieftain. Fair pedigree, only runner of her age, in good hands but may need to pick up experience.
16th	5 16th (5) (150/1 +0%) Maivangomary	150 150/1(+0%)	(5) Maivangomary 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Thurles (15.6f, soft) 25 days ago. Pulled up on her hurdles debut at Punchestown, completely tailed off at Thurles.

A weak affair and it's difficult to be overly confident about any of these. Pallas Athene is a point-to-point winner and has the form in the book to win a race of this standard, however she is on a retrieval mission having flopped badly on her most recent start at Clonmel. Similar comments apply to the twice placed Penelope's Charm, who finished ninth of nine when last seen in a Limerick bumper. While also hard to support with any great confidence, it might be worth siding with JOKERS 'N' CLOWNS, who is another point-to-point victor in the line-up. She gained no fans by her pre-race antics at Navan last weekend, unseating Keith Donoghue as the tape was released. Now tried in a first time hood, the Jet Away five-year-old might be able to redeem herself. Sadies Diamond, Diamond Nora and Shanlaylin, who is a sister to five-time winning stable companion Drop The Anchor, are others of note.

Something can't have been right with PALLAS ATHENE last time and she's given another chance as her 2 runs prior to that had been quite encouraging. Jokers 'N' Clowns got rid of her rider at the start on last week's hurdle debut but the fact this point winner went off at only 100/30 suggests she's well regarded and she could prove a threat if she behaves better with a hood added this time. Penelope's Charm achieved enough in her first 2 bumpers to think she could also make her presence felt.

No shortage of questions here. If PALLAS ATHENE is restored to form after a dismal run at Clonmel, she should be hard to beat

15:20 Gowran Park Handicap Hurdle 20f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	9 1st (9) (13/2 -30%) Carlas Big Jim	6.5 13/2(-30%)	(9) Carlas Big Jim 13/2, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap hurdle at Clonmel (18.9f, heavy, 9/2) 23 days ago, keeping on well. Can go well again. Deserved his wide-margin Clonmel win after three seconds, capable of further progress.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/2 +10%) Dgalwaygallivantor	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(8) Dgalwaygallivantor 9/2, Winner in hurdle at Cork in November. 11/2, creditable third of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20.2f, soft) 54 days ago. Yard in good form. Can make presence felt. 2m winner on penultimate start, appeals as a young horse who could continue on the upgrade.
3	10 3rd (10) (6/1 +8%) Cosmo Renfro	6 6/1(+8%)	(10) Cosmo Renfro 6/1, Winner in hurdle at Limerick in November. 13/2, creditable second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (24.9f, heavy) 17 days ago. Shortlisted. Holding his form well since Limerick win, Punchestown second boosted by the winner.
4	2 4th (2) (13/2 +13%) Pirate Island	6.5 13/2(+13%)	(2) Pirate Island 13/2, 9/1, good second of 7 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (19.9f, soft) 33 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Needs considering. Showing consistent form, looks the pick of three runners in this for Philip Fenton.
5th	12 5th (12) (80/1 -300%) Red Striker	80 80/1(-300%)	(12) Red Striker 80/1, Below form ninth of 15 in handicap hurdle (14/1) at Bellewstown (17.2f, good). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Andrew McNamara. Needs to hit the ground running. Third over 2m at Kilbeggan last August, failed to repeat that form on next start, new yard.
6th	3 6th (3) (10/1 +29%) Run For Harry	10 10/1(+29%)	(3) Run For Harry 10/1, 25/1, eighth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (19.8f, heavy) 31 days ago, not knocked about. Possibilities. Soundly beaten on all four starts this season including handicaps over this trip.
7th	4 7th (4) (10/1 -67%) Cher Why Not	10 10/1(-67%)	(4) Cher Why Not 10/1, Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Punchestown (24.9f, heavy) 17 days ago. Not taken lightly. Veteran has been performing consistently, held by Cosmo Renfro on Punchestown running.
8th	5 8th (5) (16/1 -100%) Politicise	16 16/1(-100%)	(5) Politicise 16/1, Twenty four runs since last win in 2020. Creditable third of 6 in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (21.3f, heavy, 7/2) 31 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Others still more persuasive. Managed a couple of good runs over hurdles before being placed over fences on latest.
9th	15 9th (15) (11/1 +45%) Glenabo Bridge	11 11/1(+45%)	(15) Glenabo Bridge 11/1, 14/1, respectable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20f, heavy) 40 days ago, going in snatches. Can give a good account. Veteran gained a hard-earned success at Fairyhouse in November, respectable form since.
10th	7 10th (7) (8/1 +33%) Great Island	8 8/1(+33%)	(7) Great Island 8/1, C&D winner in September. 5/1, let down by his jumping when fourteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy) 72 days ago. Handily weighted and sort to bounce back. Wide-margin C&D winner on handicap debut last September, well below best on last two runs.
11th	1 11th (1) (25/1 +0%) Carrolls Cottage	25 25/1(+0%)	(1) Carrolls Cottage 25/1, Twenty four runs since last win in 2021. 40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap hurdle at this course (20.1f, heavy) 21 days ago, pulled up before last. Better hurdler than chaser, out of form over fences, pulled up on return to hurdling.
12th	6 12th (6) (22/1 -38%) Bloomhill	22 22/1(-38%)	(6) Bloomhill 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 14 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Thurles (16.4f, soft) 16 days ago. Back up in trip. Dual points winner, has failed to make the impact that might have been expected.
13th	16 13th (16) (28/1 +15%) Legacy Of Dreams	28 28/1(+15%)	(16) Legacy Of Dreams 28/1, Seventh of 14 in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Punchestown (20.2f, heavy) 17 days ago so more is required. Winning chaser, 0-10 over hurdles, well beaten over this trip at Punchestown last time.
14th	11 14th (11) (8/1 +33%) Knockaneleigh Girl	8 8/1(+33%)	(11) Knockaneleigh Girl 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 66/1, good fourth of 9 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (21.7f, good). Off 6 months. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should progress. Ordinary form over hurdles, ran away with a weak mares' maiden point at Loughrea.
13	13 \|PU\| (13) (33/1 +34%) Sky Tempest	33 33/1(+34%)	(13) Sky Tempest 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 100/1, sixth of 14 in novice hurdle at Thurles (19.8f, soft) 25 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Open to improvement. Slight improvement in evidence at Thurles last time, a lot more needed; tongue-tie added.

GREAT ISLAND gets the nod in this wide-open heat. The eight-year-old provided Ethan O'Sullivan with a memorable breakthrough success over the course and distance in September. An easy 16-length winner on that occasion, he had the reopposing Glenabo Bridge back in third. While disappointing on his last two starts at Fairyhouse and Limerick respectively, the selection might be able to bounce back to his best, returning to the scene of his sole success to date. A case can be made for many others, with Knockaneleigh Girl given second preference. A wide margin winner of a point-to-point at Loughrea in October, she makes her debut in handicap company now, and it'll be interesting to see how she fares. Politicise, Pirate Island, Dgalwaygallivantor and Carlas Big Jim are all sure to have plenty of supporters, with the latter a decisive winner at Clonmel last month. While both consistent sorts, the trip looks on the short side for Cher Why Not and Cosmo Renfro.

Lots with chances. GREAT ISLAND had been shaping up well until making some jumping errors at Limerick last time and is worth another chance off a lenient-looking mark. Dgalwaygallivantor is another who is weighted to go well and next on the list ahead of in-form duo Cosmo Renfro and Pirate Island.

Recent form involving the consistent COSMO PENFRO is persuasive enough to earn him the vote over Carlas Big Jim and Politicise

5th	4 5th (4) (11/1 -69%) Pats Choice	11 11/1(-69%)	(4) Pats Choice 11/1, 3 wins from 12 runs this season. Latest win in chase at Naas in January. Only fourth of 5 in novice chase at Punchestown (16f, heavy, 11/1) 20 days ago. More is needed. 3rd win over fences at Naas in January; struggled with jumping since; stiff looking mark.
6th	8 6th (8) (16/1 -14%) Happy Dreams	16 16/1(-14%)	(8) Happy Dreams 16/1, Latest win in chase at Limerick in December. Respectable sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (19.8f, heavy, 4/1) 31 days ago. In the mix now switched to fences. 4-time chase winner; career best at Limerick over Christmas but vulnerable down in trip.
7	7 \|F\| (7) (16/1 -100%) Bonnie Kellie	16 16/1(-100%)	(7) Bonnie Kellie 16/1, Latest win in chase at Clonmel in October. Fifth of 6 in handicap chase (6/1) at Punchestown (22.1f, soft) 33 days ago. Down in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Dual chase winner; not beaten far last month but likely to find trip too sharp.

Below form sixth of 10 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (21.5f, soft, 11/1) 6 days ago. Down in trip. Has work to do. Best form has come over timber at longer trips and didn't show enough last week.

WHISKEYWEALTH appeals here with John Shinnick claiming a valuable 7lb. While he ran below par in the Dan Moore at Fairyhouse in January, he bounced back to form when striking over flights at Naas early last month. In the aftermath of that success at the Tipper Road venue, his trainer Terence O'Brien indicated this race as a target. Down at the foot of the handicap, Sunnyvilla is an interesting contender. Pulled up on three consecutive starts, he hinted at a return to form when fourth at Thurles when tried in cheekpieces for the first time. Those cheekpieces are unsurprisingly retained now and it'll be interesting to see how he fares off bottom weight. The Willie Mullins duo of Figaroc and Feu Du Bresil are sure to have plenty of supporters. Both start off in handicap company and it'll come as no surprise should either prevail. In truth, it's difficult to safely rule out any of these, with Pat's Choice, La Malmason, Bonnie Kellie and Happy Dreams all capable of making their presence felt.

Willie Mullins' handicap debutant FIGAROC appeals as a likely improver and can open his account over fences in this competitive handicap. Handily-weighted Whiskeywealth rates the chief threat back in this sphere, with in-form pair Cayd Boy and La Malmason also in the mix.

It was a major step back in the right direction for CAYD BOY when 2nd latest and he can build on that back at his preferred trip

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (2/7 +60%) Aime Desjy	0.285714 2/7(+60%)	(1) Aime Desjy 2/7, Won hurdle at Kilbeggan in August. Useful form both chases starts, latterly second of 6 in maiden over C&D (heavy) 21 days ago. The one to beat. Chased home Saint Felicien last time and he's fine on testing ground; leading claims.
2	2 2nd (2) (17/2 -240%) Duffle Coat	8.5 17/2(-240%)	(2) Duffle Coat 17/2, Useful hurdler. Good start over fences when second of 7 in maiden at Punchestown (22.8f, heavy) 20 days ago. The obvious threat to Aime Desjy. Promise 2nd in a beginners' last month and should go well if he builds on that.
3	3 3rd (3) (25/1 -79%) El Champo	25 25/1(-79%)	(3) El Champo 25/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 3 wins from 12 runs this season. Bit below form ninth of 16 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Naas (15.6f, heavy) 13 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back up in trip. Won twice over timber in October; chase debut wasn't devoid of promise but more required.
4	4 4th (4) (25/1 -25%) Starman	25 25/1(-25%)	(4) Starman 25/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 3 wins from 16 runs this season. 14/1, good third of 7 in minor event hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 31 days ago. Makes chase debut. Back up in trip. Three-time hurdle winner but would need to take his form to a new level on his chase debut.
5th	6 5th (6) (5/1 +0%) Miss Tempo	5 5/1(+0%)	(6) Miss Tempo 5/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 9/1, good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Naas (18.5f, soft) 41 days ago. Makes chase debut. Yard in good form. Point winner; won twice over timber last year; may have more to give over fences.
6th	5 6th (5) (125/1 -150%) Cosmic Blizzard	125 125/1(-150%)	(5) Cosmic Blizzard 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Pulled up in novice chase at Kilbeggan (19f, good, 50/1) on debut over fences, losing touch early final circuit. Off 6 months. Shown little in points and under rules so far and pulled up on chase debut when last seen.

AIME DESJY, Duffle Coat and Miss Tempo are the ones to focus on here, with preference for the Willie Mullins-trained former. Described by Patrick Mullins as 'a real chasing type' after winning a bumper, the French-bred gelding was a fine fifth when tried over fences for the first time in a hot beginners at Fairyhouse in December. He since finished second to the classy Saint Felicien over the course and distance last month and he'll be well fancied to go a place better now. Duffle Coat has a course win to his name and really put it up to the long odds-on Senior Chief on his most recent start. That was his first try over fences and he is likely to be suited by the drop in trip here to 2m4f. Miss Tempo has a point-to-point win to her name and has since won three over flights. A runner-up at Naas on her most recent start, she should give a good account of herself, in receipt of a mares' weight allowance.

AIME DESJY has produced 2 good efforts since switching to fences and can go one better than over C&D last month. Gordon Elliott's Punchestown runner-up Duffle Coat can follow him home.

This can go the way of AIME DESJY (nap) who chased home a nice prospect here last time and he can go one better against these rivals

1	1 1st (1) (9/2 -13%) Annamix	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(1) Annamix 9/2, Fairly useful chaser. Course winner. Pulled up in hunter chase at Naas (24.8f, heavy, 20/1) 28 days ago, losing touch tenth. Can feature if he puts in one of his better rounds of jumping. Prone to error but capable of making an impact at this level if his jumping holds up.
2	2 2nd (2) (5/2 -53%) Early Doors	2.5 5/2(-53%)	(2) Early Doors 5/2, Smart chaser at his best but lost his way when last seen under Rules. Has got back on track in points lately and stable does well in this sphere, so big player. Galway Plate winner in 2020, won well on initial point-to-point run, a reverse last time.
3	6 3rd (6) (25/1 -213%) The West's Awake	25 25/1(-213%)	(6) The West's Awake 25/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap chase at Wexford (20f, soft). Successful on second of two starts in points but hasn't been seen under Rules for some time. Veteran looked in good shape when winning for this rider at Lisronagh recently.
4	4 4th (4) (5/6 +49%) Ramillies	0.833333 5/6(+49%)	(4) Ramillies 5/6, Useful hurdler/chaser who has tasted success in points. Much better than the result when third of 7 in hunter chase (5/1) at Naas (24.8f, heavy) 28 days ago, finishing tired. Leading claims. Unbeaten in four starts in points this campaign, vulnerable on the track but strong chance.
5th	3 5th (3) (100/1 -100%) Fr Gilligansvoyge	100 100/1(-100%)	(3) Fr Gilligansvoyge 100/1, Poor chaser. One win from 47 NH runs. Winner in chase at Punchestown in April. Bit below form third of 9 in handicap chase at Sligo (21.2f, heavy, 10/1) 164 days ago. Bishopscourt Cup winner at Punchestown, fair form in low-grade handicaps, stiff task now.
6th	5 6th (5) (10/1 +29%) Stormy Story	10 10/1(+29%)	(5) Stormy Story 10/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 13 in hunter chase at Clonmel (21f, heavy, 80/1) 58 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Form in maiden hunter chases not good enough to suggest can win in this company.

A tricky race to assess. While likely to prove popular with punters, Annamix is far from consistent and was beaten in fourth when a casualty at the final fence in this contest 12 months ago. The winner of the Galway Plate in 2020, Early Doors impressed when successful on his point-to-point debut at Oldtown last month, but was surprisingly beaten into second by outsider Lisleigh Lad at Kildorrery most recently. With Derek O'Connor in the plate now, the classy 11yo could well redeem himself, with that recent effort perhaps coming a bit too soon after his Oldtown triumph. For a selection, it might be worth siding with RAMILLIES. The winner of four point-to-points this season, the grey nine-year-old ran well for a long way at Naas last month, tiring in the closing stages and finishing a well-beaten third. The vastly experienced Rob James now takes a valuable 7lb off his back and it'll be disappointing if the former Willie Mullins inmate isn't involved towards the business end. The West's Awake beat just two rivals at Lisronagh recently (after Lifetime Ambition unseated) and has a lot more on his plate now, while Bishopscourt Cup winner Fr Gilligansvoyge and the lightly raced Sam Curling-trained Stormy Story complete the line-up.

RAMILLIES has done well in points for this stable and shaped much better than the bare result when a well-held third in a hunter at Naas last time, tiring late having gone best for most of the way. Early Doors is the obvious danger and Annamix can get involved if his jumping holds up.

Slight preference is for RAMILLIES. He is unbeaten in points this season and is capable of better than he has shown in hunter chases

A very hot contest to round off proceedings. Three impressive point-to-point winners standout here, while some of those with track form add further strength to the mix. For a selection, TUMUCH gets the nod over Port Joulain. Both went through the ring at Tattersalls Cheltenham in December, with the selection the sale topper when sold for a massive 335,000 pounds. A son of Buck's Boum, he readily dismissed nine rivals when successful at Lingstown, showing a nice turn of foot when stretching clear of the field before the last. Port Joulain made the second highest price when sold for 300,000 pounds. The former Denis Murphy inmate put in a taking performance to win at Borris and now in the care of Willie Mullins, he is sure to go close. Good N' Kind was sold privately after an easy win on his second start at Dromahane, and it'll be interesting to see how this Arctic Cosmos bay fares. Whatsyourproblem went down by just a length over flights at Clonmel last month and looks to have solid place claims, while others for the shortlist are course and distance runner-up Kate Knows Best and the Gavin Cromwell-trained His Nibs.

Two expensive point recruits representing top connections are likely to dominate this, with PORT JULAIN taking marginal preference over Tumuch, although both appeal as bright prospects. Whatsyourproblem showed up well in a novice hurdle and Clonmel, so he makes most appeal of the remainder.

It's hard to oppose PORT JOULAIN who made easy work of a point on debut and the 2nd went close at Doncaster since

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.
