KUDASHEVA was an expensive purchase after winning a point-to-point on yielding ground. She has some solid form in the book over hurdles including a couple of creditable efforts against geldings at Navan. Testing ground may have been a problem when she was a disappointing favourite twice last year and she has probably been put away to wait for better underfoot conditions. She has form over 2m4f and should stay this trip. Innatendue holds the same rating as the selection but has to concede 8lb. She will like better ground too but is not sure to improve for this distance. Dual bumper winner Roedora is related to a useful hurdler and is one to note on jumping debut.

This has an open feel to it and it may pay to chance the stamina of ROEDORA upped markedly in trip for this hurdles debut against her own sex given her ability in bumpers. Kudasheva, Innatendue and Jokers 'N' Clowns head the opposition.

Better ground will suit Innatendue but that is also likely to be true of KUDASHEVA who is rated the same but receives 8lb

WINNING SMUT is interesting here after warming up for this with a respectable run in a 1m2f maiden at Cork which was contested by some useful three-year-olds. Michael Hourigan's charge has plenty of hurdling experience and twice ran well in novice contests here last year as well as finishing a running-on sixth in the Lartigue Handicap Hurdle at Listowel. This trip will suit him well. Park The Giant was third to subsequent three-time Grade 1 winner Dancing City at Navan in December and may have needed his latest run at Tipperary after three months off. Hackney Hill shaped with promise in a hot maiden at Fairyhouse and is another to consider.

JET SETTING JIM was really strong at the finish when landing a 2m bumper in the autumn and upped in trip on this hurdles debut, he gets the tentative nod. Park The Giant and Crooked Tannie are feared most.

After a nice run on the Flat to tee him up, the experienced \bWINNING SMUT\ is chosen; he twice ran well in novice company here last year

NAS NA RIOGH had some creditable placed form over the winter including a second to the smart Dancing City at Navan. Back from a two-month break, he appreciated better ground at Tipperary last month when a well-supported winner over this trip. The handicapper raised his mark by 5lb on the strength of that performance and the Walk In The Park gelding can follow up here. My Lyka won twice on the Flat in France and was bought for 110,000 Euros at Arqana in July. He has been given plenty of time to acclimatise before this hurdling debut. Undeniable Alibi has been in good form over 2m and his pedigree suggests he may improve for this stiffer test of stamina.

MY LYKA showed a fairly useful level of form in France and has joined a top stable now, so he's worth a chance to make a successful start over hurdles for alll that there is stern opposition in the shape of Undeniable Alibi and Nas Na Riogh.

Those with experience set a fair standard and NAS NA RIOGH, well backed when opening his account at Tipperary, can build on that.

PARK OF KINGS won twice over 2m in the autumn and continued to run well off his revised mark subsequently including when fifth in a 3m contest at the Dublin Racing Festival. He was just getting into contention over this trip at Punchestown when badly hampered by a faller two out and may gain compensation here in first-time cheekpieces. His trainer had a double at Cork over the weekend. Sea Music won a Ballinrobe maiden on hurdling debut last summer and ran well in a rated novice next time. Back from seven months off, he could go well on handicap debut. Pitwood Road has been doing well in Britain and may be well treated.

There should be better to come from the unexposed SEA MUSIC now that he ventures down the handicap route and Emmet Mullins's charge earns the vote. Pitwood Road also makes her handicap debut and she is second choice ahead of Park of Kings, who wasn't able to show what he can do at Punchestown recently and he was in good form prior to that. Zoffanien is also worthy of consideration.

Paul Nolan's PARK OF KINGS gets the vote. He was looking progressive before Punchestown where his chance was ruined by bad interference

Class act in the race GENTLEMAN DU MEE is not always the most reliable and has stamina to prove over 2m4f but a sharp, flat track such as this will help in that respect. Second of three finishers in the Champion Chase at Cheltenham, the Saint Des Saints gelding has had his last eight races in Grade One contests and is twice a winner at the highest level. Visionarian was a very capable good-ground performer for Peter Fahey and is interesting after a break on his first start for in-form Gavin Cromwell. Galway Plate winner Ash Tree Meadow and last year's Ryanair fourth French Dynamite, who is best in at the weights, have claims on their best form.

This represents a good opportunity for GENTLEMAN DE MEE, a dual Grade 1 winner over fences and a fine second in the Champion Chase at the Cheltenham Festival on his penultimate start. He unseated rider at Punchestown last time but he's generally a sound jumper and he should prove too good for Visionarian and Ash Tree Meadow.

Even though he's a bit of a law unto himself, GENTLEMAN DU MEE is hard to oppose; his last eight starts have been at Grade 1 level

Trainer Arthur O'Grady is two-handed here, and he may provide the answer in the form of OUT OF THE PARK. Her point-to-point career wasn't entirely without promise and she now has her initial attempt over racecourse fences. Moderate enough hurdling form allows the selection into this event off a workable mark. An extended two and a half miles around a track like this, ought to be tailor-made for the well-related six-year-old. She's from the family of Vautour, and with first time cheekpieces and Phillip Enright in the plate, a bold showing could be in the offing. Stable companion Presenting Point wouldn't be without hopes at his best either, while course winner General Clermont and Nazine are also worth a second look.

The vote goes to LILIAN BLAND, who probably didn't stay 23f at Clonmel and she was a decisive winner over this trip in a Thurles handicap on her penultimate start. General Clermont may well emerge as the main danger if able to back up his latest effort, while Definiteadare and Listenheretomejack should both be in the shake-up.

A course winner over hurdles, GENERAL CLERMONT is relatively unexposed over fences and ran well in a beginners' race last time

First and second here last year, Annamix and Nice To Meet are back to renew rivalry, but when it comes to this event J P McManus and Enda Bolger are often the team to row in behind. Former Galway Plate hero EARLY DOORS represents McManus and Bolger now. In the hands of Derek O'Connor, the 11-year-old, that hasn't been too heavily campaigned through his career, would probably appreciate the forecast better ground. Given that he hasn't won anything other than a point-to-point since his big day at Ballybrit in 2020, the weights of this contest are favourable for the Soldier Of Fortune gelding. Gordon Elliott is represented by two of the older brigade in Battleoverdoyen and Hardline. Younger more progressive types like Romeo Magico and Au Fleuron might hold sway when it comes to contending for places in the frame though.

ROMEO MAGICA was impressive at Down Royal before shaping better than the bare result in the Foxhunters' at Aintree last time and he's worth a chance to get back on the up. Annamix and Early Doors look the chief dangers.

Enda Bolger won this in 2021 and 2022 and his runner EARLY DOORS may now cope with last year's winner Annamix who has to give 10lb

Willie Mullins appears to revel in the joy being spread widely when it comes to his ownership base, and he'll likely be keen to have JUMP ALLEN well primed for connections with their business roots in this Munster region. He might want a trip in time looking at his pedigree, but the team at Closutton will be well familiar with his requirements, given that they handled a half-brother to Jump Allen in the past, Arbre De Vie. He triumphed three times for the record-breaking outfit. With a few inexperienced riders in the field, Jodie Townend's presence on the selection is clearly helpful also and he gets the nod to make a winning start from close-up Bellewstown third Florance. For the Punchestown Festival-winning Flood/Benson combination, Torquay Road can show prominently.

JUMP ALLEN is well related and in excellent hands, so he's the obvious choice in a fairly thin bumper. Whatsyourproblem shaped with encouragement in a novice hurdle last time and is worthy of consideration, while Rubies or Gold is another interesting newcomer.

The Mullins runner JUMP ALLEN may be equal to the task first time out. Major Barry and Whatsyourproblem are possible dangers.

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.
