3	5 3rd (5) (0.53/1 +36%) Old Faithful	0.53 0.53/1(+36%)	(5) Old Faithful 0.53/1, Once-raced colt. Third of 13 in maiden (11/1) at the Curragh (7f, good) on debut 25 days ago. Stable in good form. Open to improvement. Showed plenty, despite wide trip, when third to an exciting stablemate at the Curragh.
4	6 4th (6) (12/1 -50%) Royalcorrespondent	12 12/1(-50%)	(6) Royalcorrespondent 12/1, Once-raced colt. Fourth of 14 in maiden (11/10) at Fairyhouse (6f, good) on debut 56 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Likely to improve. Sent off 11-10 fav when fourth of 14 (third a Group 2 winner since) over 6f at Fairyhouse.
5th	1 5th (1) (100/1 -203%) Alto Sax	100 100/1(-203%)	(1) Alto Sax 100/1, Twice-raced gelding. 28/1, seventh of 8 in maiden at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Soundly beaten first two starts and stable second-string..
6th	4 6th (4) (125/1 -56%) Kathaniel	125 125/1(-56%)	(4) Kathaniel 125/1, Twice-raced gelding. 200/1, sixth of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, good) 20 days ago. Beaten over a dozen lengths both starts including when 200-1 latest; unlikely.
7th	8 7th (8) (250/1 -25%) T Or Coffey	250 250/1(-25%)	(8) T Or Coffey 250/1, Thrice-raced colt. 250/1, eighth of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, good) 20 days ago. Out the back in two completed starts; big outsider.
8th	3 8th (3) (125/1 -25%) I've Been Dreaming	125 125/1(-25%)	(3) I've Been Dreaming 125/1, Foaled April 2. Belardo colt. Half-brother to useful 9.5f winner Nsnas and 6f/7f winner Roman Holiday. Half-brother to winners Nsnas (9.4f AW) and Roman Holiday (6f-7f inc AW); dam won Listed.

LTO Selection:

OLD FAITHFUL gets the nod over Starliner, Instant Appeal and Royalcorrespondent. His only ride on the card, Ryan Moore will be aboard the selection, who ran a fine race on debut at the Curragh. Third there behind well-touted stable companion Diego Velazquez, he should come on plenty for that initial effort. Starliner won a barrier trial at Naas and didn't have much luck in running when third on his most recent start at the Curragh. Trained by Donnacha O'Brien, it'll come as no surprise if the Showcasing colt manages to go a few places better now. Instant Appeal has two solid efforts to his name and is sure to have plenty of supporters, while Royalcorrespondent is the other leading hope. A disappointing fourth when well-fancied on debut at Fairyhouse, he is fitted with a hood for the first time now.

STARLINER sets quite a good standard for a race like this and is narrowly preferred to Aidan O'Brien's Old Faithful, who made an encouraging start to his career when third at the Curragh last month and Ryan Moore comes over for the ride. Instant Appeal is also likely to be thereabouts in a maiden likely to be dominated by that trio.

The presence of Instant Appeal and Starliner means this is no gimme for the promising OLD FAITHFUL but he's hard to oppose

14:20 Gowran Park Maiden 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:55 Gowran Park Maiden 7f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	9 1st (9) (1.38/1 +69%) Alabama Pearl	1.38 1.38/1(+69%)	(9) Alabama Pearl 1.38/1, Fairly useful filly. 6/1 and visored for first time, good second of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. More exposed than most but she's a key form player.
2	5 2nd (5) (2.75/1 -38%) Sectarius	2.75 2.75/1(-38%)	(5) Sectarius 2.75/1, 33/1 but promising start when third of 11 in maiden at Galway (7f, soft) on debut 36 days ago. That puts him right in the mix.
3	6 3rd (6) (6.5/1 -117%) Time Tells All	6.5 6.5/1(-117%)	(6) Time Tells All 6.5/1, Lightly-raced gelding. Visored for first time, respectable fourth of 9 in maiden (16/5) at Tipperary (7.4f, soft) 26 days ago. Blinkers now on and he should be in the mix.
4	12 4th (12) (2.75/1 +17%) Perseids	2.75 2.75/1(+17%)	(12) Perseids 2.75/1, Thrice-raced filly. Fifth of 10 in maiden at Leopardstown (7.2f, good, 9/2) 83 days ago. Yard in good form and blinkers on.
5th	13 5th (13) (33/1 -32%) Summer Holiday	33 33/1(-32%)	(13) Summer Holiday 33/1, €42,000 yearling, Dandy Man filly. Dam, maiden (stayed 9f), half-sister to very smart winner up to 9f Mufarrh.
6th	10 6th (10) (66/1 -164%) Berlina	66 66/1(-164%)	(10) Berlina 66/1, Eighth of 15 in maiden (33/1) at Bellewstown (7.8f, good) on debut 8 days ago.
7th	1 7th (1) (20/1 -25%) Bungle Inthedesert	20 20/1(-25%)	(1) Bungle Inthedesert 20/1, Bungle Inthejungle gelding. Half-brother to 1m-1¼m winner Thou Art Peter. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 1¼m winner (stayed 1½m) Saab Almanal.
8th	7 8th (7) (100/1 -203%) Tortured Soul	100 100/1(-203%)	(7) Tortured Soul 100/1, Twice-raced gelding. 40/1, seventh of 8 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Back up in trip.
9th	3 9th (3) (150/1 +25%) Neddies Boy	150 150/1(+25%)	(3) Neddies Boy 150/1, Failed to replicate debut form when sixth of 11 in bumper at Killarney (17f, good to soft). Off 15 months. First run for yard after leaving Peter Fahey.
10th	2 10th (2) (150/1 -127%) Dawn Noir	150 150/1(-127%)	(2) Dawn Noir 150/1, Thrice-raced gelding. 250/1, sixth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (7f) 22 days ago.

LTO Selection:

A fine second on debut at Navan in March, TIME TELLS ALL has been ultimately disappointing since. A half-brother to last year's Irish 1,000 Guineas winner Homeless Songs, he is fitted with blinkers for the first time now and they might work the oracle. Blinkers are also tried on Perseids, with this Joseph O'Brien-trained bay given second preference. Fifth on her return to action at Leopardstown in June, she should come on plenty for that effort. Sectarius ran a fine race on debut at Galway and he'll be well-fancied to go a few places better now. The strength of that Ballybrit contest is questionable though, with the first, fourth and fifth all beaten since. Placed six-times from 10 starts, Alabama Pearl certainly wouldn't be winning out of turn, while newcomers Hot To Foxtrot, Summer Holiday and Bungle Inthedesert all warrant respect.

Despite going off at unflattering odds, SECTARIUS offered plenty to work on when third starting out at Galway a month ago and with improvement forthcoming, he gets the nod in favour of Alabama Pearl and Perseids.

Not a strong maiden. SECTARIUS showed speed before only surrendering late on at Galway and today's faster surface could be preferable.

14:55 Gowran Park Maiden 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:30 Gowran Park Handicap 7f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (3/1 +33%) Woodcock Flight	3 3/1(+33%)	(1) Woodcock Flight 3/1, 8/1, career best when winning 15-runner maiden at Bellewstown (7.8f, good) 8 days ago. Did that easily but more needed back in a handicap. Up 5lb for ready win at Bellewstown; drawn one and track bia favours prominent racers.
2	4 2nd (4) (2.25/1 +32%) Dance Night Andday	2.25 2.25/1(+32%)	(4) Dance Night Andday 2.25/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 16-runner handicap (14/1) at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago, keeping on well. Might be up to defying a 7 lb rise. Had two of these behind when an emphatic winner over this trip at Leopardstown; 7lb higher.
3	6 3rd (6) (6.5/1 +13%) On Our Radar	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(6) On Our Radar 6.5/1, Winner at Dundalk in July. Respectable 7½ lengths sixth of 16 to Dance Night Andday in handicap (11/2) at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago. Others more persuasive. Dundalk winner, sixth of 16 when fav for race won by Dance Night Andday at Leopardstown.
4	7 4th (7) (22/1 +56%) Nituna	22 22/1(+56%)	(7) Nituna 22/1, 40/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Cork (7f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Never got involved on handicap bow at Cork last week but better for that after a lay-off.
5th	5 5th (5) (6/1 +0%) Not Just Yet	6 6/1(+0%)	(5) Not Just Yet 6/1, Winner at Listowel in June. Creditable 3¾ lengths third of 16 to Dance Night Andday in handicap (12/1) at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago. Back to form when third to Dance Night Andday at Leopardstown and 9lb better off.
6th	2 6th (2) (3/1 +10%) Livio Milo	3 3/1(+10%)	(2) Livio Milo 3/1, 4/1, fourth of 6 in conditions event at Killarney (8.1f, good) 13 days ago. Trainer going well. Makes handicap debut. Can go well. Got first run on higher-rated rival over 7f at Galway; handicapper didn't over-react.

LTO Selection:

WOODCOCK FLIGHT belatedly made the breakthrough on his 11th start at Bellewstown last week and the Awtaad bay might be able to follow-up now. He dominated from the front at the Co Meath venue and if similar tactics are deployed, he could prove difficult to peg back. Livio Milo finished a place ahead of the selection when they clashed at Naas in June and he since made the breakthrough at Galway. A bit disappointing when fourth on his most recent start at Killarney, it'll come as no surprise if he manages to bounce back here. Dance Night Andday impressed when getting off the mark at Leopardstown recently and she is sure to have plenty of supporters, while On Our Radar, Not Just Yet and Artemis Jones all warrant respect in this competitive affair.

DANCE NIGHT ANDDAY had a fair bit to spare at Leopardstown so a 7 lb rise may not prevent her going in again. Artemis Jones has been cut a bit of slack by the handicapper and is second choice ahead of Dermot Weld's Livio Milo.

Having left behind a below par handicap debut when fifth over 6f at the Curragh, ARTEMIS JONES is taken to gain her second win over 7f

15:30 Gowran Park Handicap 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

Info	Form	Odds
1	5 1st (5) (7/1 +79%) Hello Power	7 7/1(+79%)	(5) Hello Power 7/1, Fair filly. One win from 22 Flat runs. 15/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable sixth of 18 in handicap at Tipperary (12.5f, good to soft) 3 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Modest strike-rate of 1-22 and will be doing well to double her tally on these terms.
2	1 2nd (1) (1/1 -25%) Celtic Crown	1 1/1(-25%)	(1) Celtic Crown 1/1, Useful mare. C&D winner. Latest win at Leopardstown in July. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 12/1) 13 days ago. Stable in good form. The one to beat down in grade. Didn't run too badly at Leopardstown 13 days ago; weighted to win this.
3	8 3rd (8) (3.33/1 +67%) Velvet And Vine	3.33 3.33/1(+67%)	(8) Velvet And Vine 3.33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable eighth of 18 in handicap (17/2) at Leopardstown (9f, good) 20 days ago, left with lot to do. Respected. Has ability and entitled to be more competitive now dropped into a claimer.
4	4 4th (4) (11/1 -69%) Saturn Seven	11 11/1(-69%)	(4) Saturn Seven 11/1, Fairly useful filly. Winner at Limerick in June. 15/2, below form ninth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces back on. Recent winning handicapper but needs be right on the ball at these weights.
5th	6 5th (6) (125/1 -150%) Contradanza	125 125/1(-150%)	(6) Contradanza 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourteenth of 16 in handicap at Cork (6f, good, 50/1) 40 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Very hard to make a case for. Low-level form; has no right to be troubling the best of these in a claimer.
6th	7 6th (7) (5.5/1 +66%) Gometra Ginty	5.5 5.5/1(+66%)	(7) Gometra Ginty 5.5/1, Fair mare. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable ninth of 17 in handicap at Cork (7f, good to soft, 4/1) 7 days ago. F Nine-time winner in Britain and last week's Cork run her best since arriving in Ireland.
7th	9 7th (9) (125/1 -89%) Point To Prove	125 125/1(-89%)	(9) Point To Prove 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft). Off 126 days. Has achieved very little in her four runs and has a basement mark; opposable.
8th	3 8th (3) (16/1 +52%) Ms Eagleton	16 16/1(+52%)	(3) Ms Eagleton 16/1, Fair mare. Bit below form ninth of 15 in handicap (10/1) at Killarney (8.1f, good) 13 days ago, slowly away. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Maiden winner; has regressed this season and faces no easy task on these terms.

LTO Selection:

This looks a good opportunity for CELTIC CROWN. A five-time winner, the Adrian McGuinness-trained six-year-old is by far the highest rated runner in the line-up and has a course and distance win to her name. Tried in Listed company on her penultimate start, she wasn't beaten far when sixth on her most recent outing at Leopardstown. Bidding for a third win in-a-row at Gowran, You Owe Me Money is given second preference. She was beaten by the selection on their only previous meeting last summer and is worse off at the weights now. Velvet And Vine is an interesting contender. After three solid efforts in maiden company, she was eighth of 18 on her handicap debut at Leopardstown and should be able to make an impact in a contest of this quality. A nine-time winner in the UK, Gometra Ginty was sent off a well-backed favourite at Cork recently and while she disappointed there, an improved performance looks likely from her now with Sean Bowen claiming a valuable 7lb. A winner at Limerick in June, Saturn Seven is another for the shortlist.

CELTIC CROWN is potentially a cut above now dropping into a claimer and can strike for the Ado McGuinness team. You Owe Me Money racked up back-to-back handicap wins in May and will likely be the chief threat if showing up from a break in similar form. Velvet and Vine may fare best of the rest.

At these weights it's difficult to get away from CELTIC CROWN who didn't run at all badly in her latest handicap.

Bit below form sixth of 15 in handicap (7/2) at Bellewstown (7.8f, good) 8 days ago, though he wasn't seen to best effect. Stable having good spell and he's down to an attractive mark. In form prior to ailing to land a blow at Bellewstown after breaking slowly.

14th	12 14th (12) (18/1 +10%) Lisabetta	18 18/1(+10%)	(12) Lisabetta 18/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Respectable seventh of 15 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.8f, good, 22/1) 8 days ago. Encouraging fourth of 16 back here in July and she got no luck at Bellewstown last week.
15th	8 15th (8) (66/1 -32%) Hurricane Helen	66 66/1(-32%)	(8) Hurricane Helen 66/1, Unreliable sort. Tenth of 11 in novice hurdle (50/1) at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) on NH debut 24 days ago. Has been running okay in claimers but well beaten in her latest handicap.

LTO Selection:

Fresh from a double at Tipperary on Sunday, Tim Doyle saddles two here, with his PINK SOCKS the suggestion. While without a win in 13 starts, she filled the runner-up spot on her most recent visit to Gowran, and kept on well in the closing stages when seventh on her latest outing at Killarney. Drawn on the rail, the Vadamos bay will be ridden by Amy Jo Hayes who claims a valuable 7lb. Danesfort was an eye-catcher when a fast-finishing fourth at Killarney last month, and the John Murphy-trained gelding is given second preference. Third on his last two starts, Partisan Hero is sure to have plenty of supporters with Jake Coen aboard, while seven-time winner Skontonovski is another leading hope. A case can be made for many others in this competitive affair, with Pinball Wizard and Qaabil two others for the shortlist.

SKONTONOVSKI has a handy turf mark to exploit and having not been seen to best effect at Bellewstown last week, he's well worth another chance. Pinball Wizard and Partisan Hero head the opposition.

A chance is taken on LISABETTA, who hinted at a return to form here before getting no luck in running at Bellewstown.

LTO Selection:

GREAT BLASKET is one of the safer options in this wide-open affair. Successful on his handicap debut here last month, he since followed-up at Killarney. Jack Kearney was aboard the Gregorian gelding at the Co Kerry venue and he retains the ride, with the talented apprentice again claiming a valuable 7lb. Brewel Hill denied Everylittlestep of a four-timer at the Curragh last month and it'll be interesting to see if he can follow-up on that success. Just half-a-length behind the selection at Killarney, Rock Etoile should give a good account of himself, while the lightly raced Rerkha is an interesting contender on just her second start in handicap company. Other leading hopes are Portreath, Court Of Appeal and Lady Arwen.

RELEVANT RANGE caught the eye at Killarney 2 weeks ago so could be the answer off a reduced mark. Rock Etoile and Brewel Hill head the dangers.

Perhaps ROCK ETOILE, who defied a similarly wide draw over C&D in the spring, can reverse Killarney form with Great Blasket

LTO Selection:

A PIECE OF HEAVEN has some strong form to his name and might be able to make the breakthrough here for local handler Barry Fitzgerald. Fourth on his three starts to date, his penultimate effort came in the Grade 1 bumper at the Punchestown Festival in April. He ran another solid race on his most recent outing at Leopardstown in June and had Nikini, who re-opposes now, a place behind. Uxmal ran well on his return to action at Tramore last month and fitted with cheekpieces for the first time now, he is a leading contender. Impero is without a win in 15 starts, but is a consistent performer and should give a good account of himself with Jack Cleary claiming 7lb. The Banger Doyle, The Mediator and the aforementioned Nikini are other leading hopes.

IMPERO isn't the most reliable but he's good enough to win a race like this so can finally break his duck. Uxmal is feared most ahead of A Piece of Heaven.

One suspects there's more to come from A PIECE OF HEAVEN who was a creditable fourth in a better maiden than this at Leopardstown

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.
