I AM MIMI has some useful form and has already run over today's course-and-distance. Runner-up on bumper debut, he finished ahead of today's rival Garnacho at Ballinrobe in May and is now 7lb better off. He was well enough held at Tramore last month but is fit and well and sure to run his race. Garnacho has recent course-and-distance form but received 8lb from the winner here last month and might struggle to beat the selection. Hey Sunshine has form in summer bumpers and while lacking hurdling experience, has a light weight and can progress. Picture Of You hasn't run since disappointing in April but had run well in winter maidens, so should compete with a light weight.

HEY SUNSHINE showed plenty in bumpers and should be well prepared for her hurdling debut, so she gets the nod over Picture of You, who has the best form of those with experience in this sphere. Marie's March, a stablemate of the selection, could also get involved.

Preference is for GARNACHO whose close second in a C&D maiden hurdle two weeks ago shows that he's going the right way

PRESENTING LAD has shown improved form over fences this year and reverts to hurdling, rated 11lb lower in this sphere. His recent chase form is consistent and progressive and while he hasn't raced over hurdles since August 2023, is a three-time hurdle winner and should compete from his rating. Old Bill Barley debuts in handicaps and should improve from a reappearance run in July. Despite being a previous course bumper winner, he has hung left on occasions in the past, including on his hurdling debut here, but nonetheless has ability, contested a useful Ballinrobe maiden last time out and today's rider claims 5lb. Baltinglass Hill has been running consistently well and is noted too.

BALTINGLASS HILL has been in top form lately and, after finding one too good at Wexford a month ago, he's worth a chance to resume winning ways at the possible expense of Presenting Lad, who returns to this sphere after a ready success over the larger obstacles. By Your Side is also respected.

Perhaps it is worth taking a chance with WALHAAN, who comes here in good form from the Flat and might just be good enough

PRAY TELL was well beaten at the Galway festival in July but had previously shown better form and now contests an ordinary maiden. A point-to-point winner who clearly stays well, dropping in distance isn't ideal today but the form of his Wexford-placing in May reads well and he receives weight from the top five horses today, while his rider also claims 2lb. Next Week won a Killarney bumper in 2022 and while he was well held in his initial two hurdle runs, showed better form here last time and could well be suited by today's longer distance. Augusta George is a recent bumper winner but has been well beaten in two previous hurdle runs.

PRAY TELL was better than the result when mid-division in a Galway handicap last time and repeat of the form he showed when placed on his 4 starts prior to that should be good enough here. High City Roller has some fair form to his name and should figure prominently, while Qaasid's Flat ability suggests he should be up to making his presence felt on what is effectively his hurdle debut (unseated first on previous attempt).

Despite the drop back in trip, this looks a really good opportunity for PRAY TELL (nap) with some very solid staying maiden hurdle form
Class & Speed Card

CRAIC EILE has won just twice from 55 career runs but reverts back up in distance which could bring about some improvement. Ideally suited by good ground, he ran well at Killarney recently, is able at this level and while well held on his previous attempt at this distance, that was at Listed level back in 2021 and he has run consistently well over middle-distances recently, suggesting he will stay the distance. Cafe Del Mar has won once from 19 runs and relishes stamina tests. She has raced just three times this year, with each of those runs being in August, and having run consistently well, is dependable. Sineads Fancy is 6lb higher than when winning at Downpatrick.

Gavin Cromwell's BROGUE MAN RIVER should be sharper for last week's Bellewstown reappearance and might prove the answer now stepping up to 3m for the first time. Craic Eile, Hill Rocket and Turkey And Ham head the dangers.

A good second over fences last week, CAFE DEL MAR can go one better here back hurdling

EL CHAMPO has strong claims being an experienced type and possessing a chase rating of 120, in a race confined to horses rated 0-116 over hurdles. A progressive three-time hurdle winner last year, his recent chase form is good, ran a cracker to finish second at Listed level last month and today's rider now claims 7lb. Miss Gherkin also contested a smart Killarney handicap last month and now meets more experienced rivals on chase debut. She is an able 113-rated hurdler who notably receives her mares' 7lb allowance though, although both her wins have come over two miles. Debut point-to-point winner Marv Michael should know his job for his fences debut and recently won a lesser Tramore maiden hurdle.

EL CHAMPO is just about the form pick and arrives on the back of a solid showing at Killarney, so he's marginally preferred to Ceroc, with Marv Michael appealing as an interesting newcomer to chasing.

Recent Tramore hurdles winner MARV MICHAEL can make a successful start over fences

CLIFFTOP is very closely matched with Watch The Weather on Wexford form last month but did win subsequently at Tramore and has obvious claims. The selection is a Flat winner who frustratingly failed to score over hurdles but his recent chase form is stronger and is suited by today's conditions. Watch The Weather is similarly suited by conditions and while he narrowly failed in a recent Downpatrick beginners chase, should again compete today. General Clermont was well enough held when reverting to hurdles at Killarney recently but two of his three wins have come over fences and should run well, despite being 9lb higher than when winning at Wexford in early August.

CHARLIE LUCIANO looks to have got in lightly for his handicap chase bow so is fancied to bag a first success in this sphere. Course winner Sargent Lightfoot is feared most on the back of a good hurdling second here, with Kilashee and Clifftop also in the mix.

Course specialist SARGENT LIGHTFOOT gets the vote, ahead of Good As Hell and General Clermont

ARTIC LANE brings a whopping piece of winter form to a Kilbeggan bumper and should prove difficult to beat, although the application of a first-time tongue-tie is a small concern. An easy point-to-point winner, he finished second in a smart Leopardstown festival bumper last Christmas and having finished 25 lengths, and more, clear of the well-beaten horses, all bar one of those have won races subsequently. Today's jockey also claims 5lb. Mrs Mc Go has a big race-fitness edge and has shown nice ability but is vulnerable to a more capable type. Warriors Wood ran well on point-to-point debut while reserves, maiden hurdle-placed Supreme Ruler and ex-point-to-pointer Persian Daughter would be notable runners.

ARTIC LANE holds the clear edge on form so is fancied to make light of his absence and get off the mark. Mrs Mc Go has the form to play a part and is next on the list ahead of Dansanttothetune who wasn't seen to best effect when fourth at Killarney last time out.

ARTIC LANE;'s Leopardstown second over this trip last Christmas is easily the standout piece of form here

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.
