1	5 1st (5) (7/2 -27%) If You Let Me	3.5 7/2(-27%)	(5) If You Let Me 7/2, Has shown ability in bumpers and might be up to making his presence felt in a race like this over hurdles. Bumper promise and found a weak race in which to make his hurdling debut.
2	6 2nd (6) (16/1 -60%) Lynchy Boy	16 16/1(-60%)	(6) Lynchy Boy 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Ninth of 16 in bumper (14/1) at Ballinrobe (16.8f, good) 10 days ago but shaped when well when fourth in a Clonmel hurdle prior to that. Has to be taken seriously. Fourth in a maiden hurdle and was staying on in a Ballinrobe bumper.
3	4 3rd (4) (3/1 +70%) Glendine Billy	3 3/1(+70%)	(4) Glendine Billy 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Fifteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy, 50/1) 46 days ago. Has yet to threaten and made no impact in a Fairyhouse handicap latest when 50-1.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eleventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (20.5f, good to soft, 9/2) 23 days ago. Back down in trip. Essentially disappointing with her now 0-9 and the cheekpieces did nothing at Bellewstown.

Significantly back down in trip. Booking of Queally a plus. Has been running over 3m (moderately) and questionable whether this is his trip.
9th	2 9th (2) (33/1 -65%) Dreamings Free	33 33/1(-65%)	(2) Dreamings Free 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Good fourth of 9 in novice hurdle at Limerick (21f, heavy, 20/1) 36 days ago. Back down in trip. RPR of 90 when beaten 28l into fourth in a Limerick maiden (2m5f, heavy) last month.
10th	11 10th (11) (40/1 +39%) West Clare	40 40/1(+39%)	(11) West Clare 40/1, 66/1, ninth of 14 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (21.4f, good) 10 days ago. Down in trip. Another for whom a case can be made on bumper promise but has offered little over hurdles.
11th	8 11th (8) (16/1 -14%) Manfredi	16 16/1(-14%)	(8) Manfredi 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 20/1 and hooded for 1st time, sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good) on hurdles bow 7 days ago, unable to sustain effort. May well do better. Needed to run better on last week's hurdling debut to be a strong fancy for this.
12th	1 12th (1) (20/1 -25%) Camino Mission	20 20/1(-25%)	(1) Camino Mission 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 11 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 6/1) 36 days ago. 17-race maiden under both codes and always opposable in maidens with a mark of 88.
13th	10 13th (10) (50/1 -52%) Supreme Authority	50 50/1(-52%)	(10) Supreme Authority 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Down Royal (17.2f, heavy) 115 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Type to do better at some point. Tailed off in his four previous maidens but at least they were won by good horses.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (4/1 +27%) Minella Buddy	4 4/1(+27%)	(9) Minella Buddy 4/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, fourth of 19 in novice hurdle at Naas (16.5f, soft) 31 days ago. Open to improvement. Respected under Blackmore. Hasn't kicked on from debut effort but still needs considering in this weak a race.

A lot of these horses have still to prove their ability on better ground. IF YOU LET ME appeals on hurdling debut after three runs in bumpers that yielded a best finish of fifth in Thurles. He's a former point-to-point winner who handled decent ground when placed on his first run between the flags. The 100-rated Minella Buddy could appreciate this better surface and Rachael Blackmore is a notable booking for John Nallen's charge. Andyourbirdcansing didn't run badly when fourth over further in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel, so has prospects for John Ryan and Shane Fitzgerald.

If LYNCHY BOY can reproduce the form of his Clonmel hurdle debut fourth he might prove the answer to this opener. Gavin Cromwell bumper recruit If You Let Me is a possible threat if taking to his new discipline. Andyourbirdcansing is another who could be in the shake-up, while the booking of Rachael Blackmore for Minella Buddy catches the eye.

This is a weak maiden for the 100-rated MINELLA BUDDY to be a leading form contender and he earns marginal preference under Blackmore.

Fairly useful winner at 8f on flat. 11/1, sixth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) 36 days ago but remains capable of better over the sharp 2m he faces here.

9th	2 9th (2) (40/1 -150%) Swelltime	40 40/1(-150%)	(2) Swelltime 40/1, Course winner. Ninth of 14 in novice chase at Ballinrobe (17.1f, good, 150/1) on debut over fences 10 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Course winner on a perfectly good mark but current wellbeing is an issue.

BETTY DUTTON will really appreciate this surface. Edward O'Grady's mare has come home a close third in her last three outings on this sort of ground and looks primed for a big run having been freshened up since January. Burren Song kept more than decent company on the Flat and has since changed stables. He will love this ground and is unexposed over flights, so must be checked for market strength on his first run since October. Run For Harry was placed in this grade at Bellewstown, and first-time cheekpieces are applied in a bid to eke out a bit more improvement. Flidais is another to consider, while the reserves all have bits and pieces of chances.

RUN FOR HARRY arrives on the back of good placed efforts at Naas and Bellewstown this spring and won't need to pull out much more for first-time cheekpieces. Saynothinatall appeals as one who could have more to come in handicaps and is next on the list. Master Player hasn't been seen since winning a Bangor maiden just under a year ago but still appeals as one who could have more to offer, a comment which also applies to San Aer now faced with a sharp 2m for the first time over hurdles.

This looks very open. Drying ground ticks a big box for BETTY DUTTON and she has the form in the book to be a major player.

WIN SOME LOSE SOME was far from disgraced in maiden hurdles at Naas and Gowran Park, and is bred to appreciate this better ground so could go well for owner JP McManus. Shark Hanlon's Real Empire faced a stiff task over flights at Punchestown, but has two placed efforts in bumpers to his name. Shane Fenelon takes a handy 7lb off his back. Newcomer Kanpai has an interesting pedigree for this assignment, being a half-brother to a couple of horses who won over hurdles on good ground. Oh So Charming and Mortimer Duke are others who could get into the mix, along with Gordon Elliott's newcomer Two Become One.

Those with hurdles experience don't set the bar too high so MORTIMER DUKE, who won't lack for pace if his pedigree is any guide, selected to make a winning debut. Two Become One was no star in points but has to command respect given the yard she;s joined, with Deplama another to consider.

DEPALMA was beaten 19l in a stronger Tipperary maiden hurdle last time but with some improvement can take this.

14	14 (14) (100/1 +0%) Takemeuptocarlow	100 100/1(+0%)	(14) Takemeuptocarlow 100/1, Once-raced maiden. 125/1, last of 13 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 22 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. RESERVE. Beaten a long way in a Wexford bumper recently and passed over; reserve.

May well do better and merits consideration. Not a bad run on debut in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle and can go well with improvement.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 +9%) Gaucher	2.5 5/2(+9%)	(1) Gaucher 5/2, Promising type. Hood on for 1st time in this code tongue strap on, first run since leaving C. Laffon-Parias when fourth of 14 in novice hurdle at Navan (15.7f, heavy, 7/2) on NH debut 96 days ago. Two Flat wins in France and a fine run after an absence on hurdling/Irish debut; player.

Open to progress and can't be ruled out. Placed in a point but beaten 22l on hurdling debut as fav' so major improvement needed.

BRAVE FORTUNE was placed in maiden hurdles at Thurles and Tipperary and, on both occasions, the form has been well franked. He holds solid claims for trainer Pat Doyle. It would be reasonable to assume that Frankel gelding Gaucher will appreciate this ground after finishing fourth on debut on testing going at Navan. Henry de Bromhead's Phoenix Belle should progress from an opening fourth over flights at Ballinrobe, while Donnie Devito is not without hope on hurdling debut for an in-form Ross O'Sullivan. He was a notable third in a bumper at Fairyhouse that was won by a subsequent Aintree Grade 1 novices' hurdle runner-up.

BRAVE FORTUNE's second at Tipperary last time is comfortably the best piece of form on show and a repeat should be enough to go one better for all that both Jhentong Enki and Gaucher are open to improvement.

BRAVE FORTUNE can take the measure of Gaucher on these terms and build upon his fine second at Tipperary last time.

Sixth of 7 in novice chase (16/1) at Tipperary (23.4f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Hard to make a case for.

Switches from chase to hurdles. Up in trip. Solid claims if he's tuned up for this. Chasing when last seen; achieved higher figures over hurdles; 3m now his trip.

10th	7 10th (7) (9/1 +25%) Starzov	9 9/1(+25%)	(7) Starzov 9/1, Sixteenth of 22 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Leopardstown (24.3f, soft) 104 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Has run well in handicaps and faced a tough assigment when last seen.
11th	11 11th (11) (6/1 +57%) The Little Yank	6 6/1(+57%)	(11) The Little Yank 6/1, 12/1, respectable seventh of 15 in handicap chase at Killarney (26f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Can't be ruled out. Losing run was extended when well beaten over fences at Killarney five days ago.

OTTIZZINI is definitely match-fit courtesy of three runs in Britain during February, March and April. Stuart Crawford's mare picked up a nice pot in a staying novices' hurdle at Musselburgh and emerged with credit from a close second in a Listed mares' novices' hurdle at Doncaster. Getaway Charlie was banking plenty of cheques before he unseated his rider in a valuable handicap hurdle at Punchestown. He could readily bounce back to form. Starzov has been lightly raced over the last year but is capable, as evidenced by a fourth place in a decent handicap hurdle at Aintree in November. The returning Happy Jacky and Vina Ardanza are others who could get into contention.

VINA ARDANZA is well treated based on chasing form and should be ready despite an 11-month absence, so he gets the tentative vote in a tricky contest. Ottizini should be on the premises and Getaway Charlie deserves respect.

This track should suit the in-form OTTIZZINI down to the ground given that she's a prominent racer who jumps to her right.

The Paul Nolan-trained JASMIN DE COTTE should be good enough to gain a first win under Rules. A former point-to-point runner-up, the lightly-raced five-year-old had just the four starts over flights before his attention was switched to chasing. Showing plenty of promise when keeping on for third on his initial outing at Down Royal in April, the gelding should be all the better for that experience. Hunting Brook, a dual winner over hurdles last season, is an interesting chasing debutant for Gordon Elliott. The seven-year-old arrives here on the back of a second-placed finish at Tipperary recently. Warm In Gorey, who has reached the frame on both outings over fences to date, is also capable of getting involved.

JAMSIN DE COTTE left his hurdles form trailing in his wake when third at Down Royal a month ago and he'll take some stopping on that evidence. Clifftop is second choice, with Hunting Brook perhaps the pick of the chase debutants.

Paul Nolan's JASMIN DE COTTE had fewer convictions than most of these over hurdles and it was a good start over fences at Down Royal.

CALICO could be well treated off a mark of 125 on her handicap debut over fences. The Gordon Elliott-trained five-year-old made a winning debut over the larger obstacles at Galway last September, before finishing runner-up in a Grade 3 on her next start. Although well beaten at Punchestown on her reappearance earlier this month, the mare should strip much fitter here. Although an eight-year-old, Farmers Lodge is very lightly raced with plenty of scope for progression. Barry Connell's gelding ran a huge race when beating the subsequent Scottish National winner off level weights at Fairyhouse in January. Take All is a decent handicapper at this level so has to be respected for the Shark Hanlon yard.

FARMERS LODGE found the rise in class too much at Navan last time but his chasing debut was impressive prior to that, so he's worth another chance to improve back down in grade. Gracchus de Balme is a solid alternative and Take All is an obvious player if he finishes better than last time.

FARMERS LODGE (nap) beat the Scottish National winner in a 2m novice earlier this season. This distance on better ground could be ideal

DACMAN, a half-brother to Grade 1 winner Sir Gerhard, catches the eye on his racecourse debut. Like the latter, also trained by Willie Mullins, the five-year-old has been given every opportunity by making his introduction at one of the smaller meetings. It could also be significant that Mullins does particularly well with his bumper horses here. Lovely Hurling ran far better than the bare result suggests on his sole start to date. Travelling easily when making a bad mistake two out in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse in March, the five-year-old can do better. Recent Cork runner-up Custom Taylor sets the standard amongst those that have already raced in this sphere.

DACMAN is related to the classy Sir Gerhard and is in top hands, so he's an obvious choice to make a successful start in a race where the bar isn't set very high. Custom Taylor is the best of those with experience and Lovely Hurling showed some encouragement over hurdles.

The eyes are drawn to Sir Gerhard's half-brother DACMAN who runs in the colours of the yard's great hurdler Hurricane Fly.

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.
