17:00 Killarney Maiden Hurdle 20f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	3 1st (3) (0.8/1 +42%) The Last Mardi	0.8 0.8/1(+42%)	(3) The Last Mardi 0.8/1, Fairly useful hurdler. One win from 3 runs last season. 1/4, still going well when falling 2 out in novice hurdle at Wexford (16.7f, good) 29 days ago (likely to have won). The one to beat. Outcome was still in doubt when he fell two out at Wexford but should make amends here.
2	1 2nd (1) (3.5/1 -17%) Black Bamboo	3.5 3.5/1(-17%)	(1) Black Bamboo 3.5/1, Fairly useful winner in bumpers. Offered something to work on when third in a Down Royal maiden (17f) on hurdles debut back in December and feasible to think he can build on that returning to action. Limerick bumper winner, placed on only start over hurdles, lacks a recent outing.
3	8 3rd (8) (5.5/1 +15%) Patricks Hill	5.5 5.5/1(+15%)	(8) Patricks Hill 5.5/1, Fair hurdler. 11/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Cork (24.4f, soft) 101 days ago, pulled up approaching last on back of 6 months off. Needs to bounce back returning from another absence. Second in a 20-runner maiden at Punchestown last October, flopped at Cork in April.
4	9 4th (9) (40/1 +20%) Paul's Pal	40 40/1(+20%)	(9) Paul's Pal 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 18/1, sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (18.3f, good to soft) 46 days ago, weakening when not fluent 2 out. Passed over here. A bit better at Kilbeggan last time but not a likely maiden winner at this stage.
5th	4 5th (4) (8/1 -100%) Walmix	8 8/1(-100%)	(4) Walmix 8/1, Gemix gelding. Attracted support at double-figure odds and built on his debut effort when landing 12-runner Wexford bumper (2m) in June. Interesting what the market makes of him now sent hurdling. Won at Wexford on second bumper outing, same 7lb claimer aboard, holds solid place chance.
6th	2 6th (2) (6/1 +8%) Fameaftertheglory	6 6/1(+8%)	(2) Fameaftertheglory 6/1, Unreliable sort. Remains a maiden after 13 hurdle runs. 7/1, below form seventh of 12 in novice hurdle at Bellewstown (16.8f, good) 12 days ago, never travelling well. Frustrating over jumps since a 2021 bumper win, 7lb behind The Last Mardi official figures.
7th	12 7th (12) (50/1 +38%) Walkonthebriteside	50 50/1(+38%)	(12) Walkonthebriteside 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 80/1, first run since leaving S. Curling when ninth of 12 in novice hurdle at Bellewstown (16.8f, good) 12 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Well-related gelding has yet to show any sign of promise, tried with a tongue-tie now.
8th	5 8th (5) (200/1 -100%) Great Rainbow	200 200/1(-100%)	(5) Great Rainbow 200/1, 20/1, thirteenth of 20 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (19.8f, good) on NH debut 40 days ago. Can only be watched on the back of that. Down the field first time out in a maiden hurdle over this trip at Punchestown, tough task.
9th	16 9th (16) (150/1 -50%) Weliketoparty	150 150/1(-50%)	(16) Weliketoparty 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, third of 5 in minor event hurdle at Kilbeggan (18.3f, good) 31 days ago. Low-grade handicaps over further likely to be more her bag in due course. Remote third of four finishers at Kilbeggan, needs to jump more fluently..
10	10 \|F\| (10) (200/1 -100%) Righteous Ruane	200 200/1(-100%)	(10) Righteous Ruane 200/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Eighth of 15 in novice hurdle (150/1) at Sligo (16.9f, good) 11 days ago, left behind before last. Can only be watched. Looked in need of further when down the field in a 2m1f maiden at Sligo, may do better now.
10th	6 10th (6) (125/1 -56%) Johns Wood	125 125/1(-56%)	(6) Johns Wood 125/1, Gatewood gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fair hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 2¾m) The Sneezer. Market can guide. Pulled-up in two point-to-points outings late last year, unlikely to feature.
11th	17 11th (17) (50/1 -25%) Delta Melody	50 50/1(-25%)	(17) Delta Melody 50/1, Ocovango gelding. Dam (h66) point winner (stayed 19f over hurdles under Rules. Maiden pointer, last of 5 finishers last time (May 14). Reserve 1. First reserve, from a family that has produced top hurdlers, placed three times in points.
12th	14 12th (14) (250/1 -150%) Laidback Joanie	250 250/1(-150%)	(14) Laidback Joanie 250/1, Once-raced maiden. 50/1, eighth of 12 in bumper at Sligo (18f, good) on NH debut 11 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. 50-1 when tailed off in a Sligo bumper first time out, safe to leave out of calculations..
13th	7 13th (7) (250/1 -150%) Party Rocker	250 250/1(-150%)	(7) Party Rocker 250/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in bumper (28/1) at Downpatrick (18.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 33 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Tailed off last of eight on his debut in a bumper at Downpatrick, safe to rule out.
14th	13 14th (13) (250/1 -150%) Celina John	250 250/1(-150%)	(13) Celina John 250/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Tongue strap on for 1st time, pulled up in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (19.8f, heavy, 200/1) on hurdles bow. Off 8 months. 200-1 when pulled-up on hurdling debut in a maiden at Fairyhouse last October.

LTO Selection:

Dual bumper winner THE LAST MARDI looks the safest option despite letting his supporters down when sent off at prohibitive odds last time. The Gordon Elliott-trained six-year-old fell two out at Wexford when faced with a strong challenge. However, on the balance of his previous form, the Sholokhov gelding is the one to beat. Walmix, who won a bumper on that aforementioned card, goes straight over hurdles on just his third career start. Although the five-year-old lacks the experience of a few of these rivals, he looked a smart prospect last time. Patricks Hill may not have stayed 3m on his latest outing but had shaped with promise on a couple of occasions over this trip. Trainer Liam Burke likes to have a winner at this meeting, so his representative has to be given close consideration.

THE LAST MARDI had notably travelled best and was still going well when falling 2 out on his latest start at Wexford 4 weeks ago (looked likely winner) and Gordon Elliott's charge is fancied to make amends here. The returning Black Bamboo and recent bumper winner Walmix are others fancied to be thereabouts.

Though possibly vulnerable at the time of his fall two out at Wexford, THE LAST MARDI, hot favourite then, again has strong credentials

17:00 Killarney Maiden Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

17:30 Killarney Conditions Hurdle 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	6 1st (6) (11/1 +78%) Presenting Doyen	11 11/1(+78%)	(6) Presenting Doyen 11/1, Fair hurdler who got off the mark at Kilbeggan (19.2f) in April. Eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good, 9/2) 32 days ago, weakening after 2 out. Needs to bounce back but it does remain early days with her. Handicap winner in April, would receive 23lb from stablemate Effernock Fizz in a handicap.
2	5 2nd (5) (2.25/1 -38%) Effernock Fizz	2.25 2.25/1(-38%)	(5) Effernock Fizz 2.25/1, Course winner who landed the Welsh Champion Hurdle last autumn and developed into a useful chaser subsequently. Comes here on the back of a disappointing run in Grade 3 hurdle 2 weeks ago but no surprise to see a better showing, not least on these favourable terms. Versatile nine-time winner, well below her best lately but suited by the race conditions.
3	4 3rd (4) (1.38/1 +45%) Troubled Times	1.38 1.38/1(+45%)	(4) Troubled Times 1.38/1, Dual bumper winner who took her form up a notch when doubling hurdles tally at Cork (19f) in May. Shaped better than bare result on handicap debut at Ballinrobe later that month and she remains one to be positive about back from a short break. Listed bumper winner, two wins over hurdles, badly treated relative to Effernock Fizz.
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 -125%) Hollymount	9 9/1(-125%)	(1) Hollymount 9/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Ayr in May 2022. Well-beaten sixth of 7 to She Is Electric in listed mares' event (12/1) at Gowran (16f, soft) in September. No surprise to see a better showing back from 9 months off. Back up in trip. Showed a good standard of form last year, lacks race-fitness unlike stablemate Shesadream.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 +72%) Shannon Glory	7 7/1(+72%)	(2) Shannon Glory 7/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Two wins from 6 runs last season. Eighth of 11 in novice chase (14/1) at Limerick (22.7f, good to soft) 56 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Difficult ask. Showed good form over hurdles on summer ground last year, last two races over fences.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (9/1 -157%) Shesadream	9 9/1(-157%)	(3) Shesadream 9/1, Successful on each of her first 2 starts over hurdles early on last year. Lost her way thereafter but produced a career-best effort to resume winning ways on return at Down Royal (16.8f) in June. Thereabouts with a repeat. Returned from a break to win at Down Royal, possibly best over shorter trips.

LTO Selection:

Welsh Champion Hurdle winner EFFERNOCK FIZZ can take this for Kerry born trainer Cian Collins. The eight-year-old has been a real stable stalwart for the Tralee man, winning three races, including at this track last August. Having been set a stiff task when down the field in the Grimes Hurdle recently, the mare is much better suited by these race conditions. The small field should also play to her strengths as it will suit a front runner. Troubled Times, a mare that won on her racecourse debut here last May, had looked a progressive hurdler prior to disappointing at Ballinrobe last time. She was subsequently found to have a genuine excuse for that below par run. Hollymount finished runner-up in this race last year so has most likely had a repeat bid as a long-term target.

EFFERNOCK FIZZ needs to shrug off a lesser effort in Grade 3 company but these are very favourable terms and she's given the vote in the hope she can bounce back. Troubled Times, who shaped better than the bare result at Ballinrobe in May remains one to be positive about and is feared, along with the returning Hollymount.

There is a question mark against the generally admirable EFFERNOCK FIZZ on recent form but she will be hard to beat if near her best

17:30 Killarney Conditions Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

18:00 Killarney Handicap Hurdle 20f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	15 1st (15) (16/1 +43%) Tory Reel	16 16/1(+43%)	(15) Tory Reel 16/1, Twice-raced winner over hurdles. Seventh of 16 in handicap at Limerick (11.3f, good, 8/1) 27 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Likely to improve. Engaged 8.20 here Wednesday. Won a juvenile maiden hurdle last summer, fit from Flat action, relatively unexposed.
2	11 2nd (11) (10/1 -150%) Away To Milan	10 10/1(-150%)	(11) Away To Milan 10/1, 17/2, career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Wexford (17.4f, good to soft) 50 days ago, in command run-in. 9 lb higher now but he remains low-mileage in handicaps and worth considering again. Wexford win was achieved over a shorter trip, not certain to be as effective here, up 9lb.
3	8 3rd (8) (5.5/1 -10%) Penny Jar	5.5 5.5/1(-10%)	(8) Penny Jar 5.5/1, Took form to a new level over hurdles last season, completing quick-fire hat-trick at Punchestown (21.7f) in November prior to good third at Navan (20f) in January. Should strip fitter for his return spin on the Flat 9 days ago and he's very much one to be interested in back over hurdles. Made sustained progress over hurdles last year, should be ready now after a Flat run.
4	10 4th (10) (11/1 +61%) Vale Of Glory	11 11/1(+61%)	(10) Vale Of Glory 11/1, Landed this race from 9 lb lower mark 12 months ago and dispelled couple of lesser efforts when doubling career tally at Punchestown (15.8f) in May. Shaped as if still in good form for a long way when seventh at Downpatrick (17.3f) 33 days ago but mark does demand that little bit more. Won this race in 2022, scored again at Punchestown in May, 9lb higher than 12 months ago.
5th	12 5th (12) (3.33/1 +52%) Navigator Jack	3.33 3.33/1(+52%)	(12) Navigator Jack 3.33/1, Creditable second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (20f, good, 5/1) 12 days ago. Not taken lightly. Comes into the reckoning now after finishing second over this trip at Bellewstown.
6th	6 6th (6) (20/1 -67%) Rock On Pedro	20 20/1(-67%)	(6) Rock On Pedro 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. 6/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, below form fourth of 9 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, soft) 6 days ago. Return to better ground may help back in handicap company. Flat winner at a modest level, good second at Tramore on his only handicap hurdle run.
7th	3 7th (3) (20/1 -186%) Silvertown	20 20/1(-186%)	(3) Silvertown 20/1, One win from 24 NH runs. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, unseated rider in handicap chase at Punchestown (24f, good, 9/2) 40 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. 1-17 over hurdles, placed six times; has been competing over fences without showing much.
8th	4 8th (4) (5/1 +72%) Arabian King	5 5/1(+72%)	(4) Arabian King 5/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. C&D winner. 10/1, first run since leaving Kevin Frost when respectable sixth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (20f, good to soft) 14 days ago. C&D maiden winner for Matt Smith a year ago, not a bad run at Tipperary on stable debut.
9th	7 9th (7) (33/1 -65%) Fiveaftermidnight	33 33/1(-65%)	(7) Fiveaftermidnight 33/1, Course winner. 12/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap chase at Downpatrick (28.6f, heavy) 109 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Down in trip. Blinkers back on. Others more persuasive. Competed solely over fences last season, good form over hurdles at end of previous season.
14	14 \|F\| (14) (5/1 +44%) Our Bobby	5 5/1(+44%)	(14) Our Bobby 5/1, 13/2, career best when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (20f, good) 12 days ago, battling well. Has responded well to the application of a hood of late and not out of things despite career-high mark. Showed a liking for good ground and this trip when winning at Bellewstown, 5lb higher now.
5	5 \|U\| (5) (25/1 +24%) Cozone	25 25/1(+24%)	(5) Cozone 25/1, Struggling in staying handicaps on the Flat in recent weeks, again very slowly away and never in the mix when last of 14 in handicap here (16.8f) on Tuesday. Hard to warm to back over hurdles. Unplaced on both Flat starts this season, due to run over hurdles here on Tuesday.
10th	2 10th (2) (12/1 -71%) Imperial Ruler	12 12/1(-71%)	(2) Imperial Ruler 12/1, Unseated rider first in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (20.4f, good, 5/1) 48 days ago. Was relatively tight in the betting on that occasion and this promises to reveal more. Fell at the first at Down Royal on first run in almost a year, still early days for him.
11th	13 11th (13) (28/1 +0%) Nazine	28 28/1(+0%)	(13) Nazine 28/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. 14/1, offered little on back of 12 months off when fourteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Blinkers back on. A long time since his sole win, was entitled to need the run at Tipperary after a year off.
12th	9 12th (9) (40/1 -21%) Centurion Steel	40 40/1(-21%)	(9) Centurion Steel 40/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Limerick (25.5f, good to soft, 14/1) 56 days ago, tailed off when pulled up early in straight. Switches from chase to hurdles. Down in trip. May need a boost to his confidence after two failures to complete the course over fences.
13th	1 13th (1) (9/1 -13%) Harvey's Quay	9 9/1(-13%)	(1) Harvey's Quay 9/1, 20/1, good fourth of 14 in novice chase at Kilbeggan (19.4f, good to soft) 46 days ago. Not out of things back over hurdles from reduced mark. Has been running over fences since a couple of good runs over hurdles last November.

LTO Selection:

PENNY JAR should be spot on for this assignment following a recent spin on the flat at Tramore. The three-time winner over hurdles made significant late ground inside the last furlong, having been denied a clear run earlier in the straight. Paddy Downey's seven-year-old gelding was only just touched off on his most recent start over flights and can race off a pound lower mark here once taking the jockey's claim into account. Arabian King, who won his maiden hurdle over course and distance, made a pleasing stable debut for Cian Collins at Tipperary recently. The seven-year-old gelding should strip fitter here and will most likely have been targeted at the meeting. Away To Milan completes the shortlist following his Wexford victory at the end of May.

The most intriguing option could be PENNY JAR. An improved model when winning 3 of his 4 starts over hurdles last season, there's every chance he will be all the better for a recent return spin on the Flat at Tramore and he can confirm himself still on a good mark back over timber. Away To Milan, a good winner at Wexford in May, and Rock on Pedro head up the dangers, with Navigator Jack also worth a second look.

With the benefit of a recent run on the Flat PENNY JAR (nap) looks to maintain the trend of sustained progress shown last season

18:00 Killarney Handicap Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

18:35 Killarney Handicap Hurdle 20f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (2.25/1 +0%) Ceanndana	2.25 2.25/1(+0%)	(4) Ceanndana 2.25/1, 4/1, career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.8f, good) 7 days ago, easily. Carries penalty but has to demand respect in his current form. Impressive Downpatrick winner last week; big shout if ground doesn't worsen too much.
2	7 2nd (7) (7.5/1 -25%) Hard Target	7.5 7.5/1(-25%)	(7) Hard Target 7.5/1, Another sound effort when third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.8f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Back up in trip and very likely to give his running. Solid recent form over various trips but bit more needed to play a major role.
3	13 3rd (13) (40/1 +20%) Man After Midnight	40 40/1(+20%)	(13) Man After Midnight 40/1, Ninth of 14 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Wexford (24f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Tongue strap and cheekpieces back on. Yet to trouble the judge over various trips; headgear combination tried but hard to fancy.
4	5 4th (5) (10/1 -43%) Dragon's Pass	10 10/1(-43%)	(5) Dragon's Pass 10/1, Latest win in hurdle at Fairyhouse in January. Another good effort when second of 16 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Limerick (19f, good to soft) 55 days ago, staying on well. Wins have been on testing ground but ran well on better ground at Limerick; prospects.
5th	2 5th (2) (7.5/1 +6%) Loup De Tallane	7.5 7.5/1(+6%)	(2) Loup De Tallane 7.5/1, 11/1 and tongue strap on for first time, excellent second of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) 58 days ago, no match for winner. Cheekpieces now added. Ground versatile, ideal trip and runs well after a break so shortlisted.
6th	8 6th (8) (11/1 -22%) Tea It Is	11 11/1(-22%)	(8) Tea It Is 11/1, Very good third of 14 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Sligo (19.9f, good) 11 days ago. Unexposed, particularly over this distance. Handicap debut at Sligo was encouraging; faces likely softer ground here.
7th	10 7th (10) (22/1 +0%) Ciankyle	22 22/1(+0%)	(10) Ciankyle 22/1, 9/2, respectable sixth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (21.3f, good to soft) 33 days ago, shaping as though still in good form. Veteran none too consistent nowadays and opposable.
8th	14 8th (14) (22/1 -38%) Rossies Tara	22 22/1(-38%)	(14) Rossies Tara 22/1, Below form eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle (17/2) at Bellewstown (16.4f, good to firm). Off 11 months. Up in trip. Long absent but has run well fresh; rain probably a negative to her chances.
9th	15 9th (15) (18/1 +55%) Brownstone	18 18/1(+55%)	(15) Brownstone 18/1, Creditable seventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (22.1f, good, 22/1) 51 days ago. Struggling to have an impact off lowly mark in handicaps and hard to fancy.
10th	16 10th (16) (28/1 -56%) Eastern Tornado	28 28/1(-56%)	(16) Eastern Tornado 28/1, 11/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (16f), possibly finding the test too much. Back over hurdles. AW winner placed in Cork handicap hurdle last year; opposable on return.
11th	9 11th (9) (14/1 +50%) Coco Lightning	14 14/1(+50%)	(9) Coco Lightning 14/1, 125/1, good third of 14 in novice hurdle at Wexford (20.7f, good to soft) 13 days ago, well positioned. Task is to now back that up. Encouraging maiden run on latest, one to consider now back in handicap.
12th	11 12th (11) (7.5/1 -7%) Naturally Blond	7.5 7.5/1(-7%)	(11) Naturally Blond 7.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win in hurdle here in July 2022. Creditable sixth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (20f, good, 14/1). Off 9 months but this veteran has been given a big chance by the assessor. Seeking to win this race for the third successive year; likely softer ground may not suit.
13th	6 13th (6) (6/1 +50%) Sheephaven Flyer	6 6/1(+50%)	(6) Sheephaven Flyer 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 6/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Limerick (22f, good to soft) 55 days ago, bad mistake 3 out. In excellent hands and likely to bounce back. Limerick run raises questions, previous Downpatrick effort was encouraging.
14th	12 14th (12) (40/1 +20%) Willie Bob	40 40/1(+20%)	(12) Willie Bob 40/1, Fell in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, soft, 33/1). Off 9 months and opposable on balance. Opening two handicap efforts modest and seems best watched for now.
15th	1 15th (1) (28/1 +0%) Gelee Blanche	28 28/1(+0%)	(1) Gelee Blanche 28/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Wexford (24.5f, good) 29 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Yet to hit form for present yard, back to best trip though.
16th	3 16th (3) (33/1 -65%) Millstream Lady	33 33/1(-65%)	(3) Millstream Lady 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (9/1) at Clonmel (19.5f, heavy) 105 days ago, losing touch before next. Never travelled on handicap debut in heavy ground in April; could yet have more to offer.

LTO Selection:

Although now at the veteran stage, NATURALLY BLOND could be hard to beat in his bid to win at this meeting for the third successive year. The Patrick Cronin-trained 13-year-old easily won on his seasonal debut here two years ago, before producing an even more impressive display 12 months later. Age is certainly not on his side but the Bach gelding has been relatively lightly raced in recent campaigns. Ceanndana won with plenty in hand at Downpatrick last week and while this is a completely different track, the Ross O'Sullivan-trained gelding did finish third here on his only previous visit. Dragon's Pass has been running well in similar races of late and was unlucky not to get closer at Limerick last time. The seven-year-old mare has her ideal conditions so should be capable of a big run.

CEANNDANA was value for extra over the winning distance when a smooth winner at Downpatrick last week and a penalty seems most unlikely to prevent a very bold follow-up bid. Dragon's Pass and Hard Target are reliable operators at this level and are a couple of potential dangers.

If handling the likely softer ground recent Downpatrick winner CEANNDANA can go in again

Info	Form	Odds
1	3 1st (3) (1.88/1 +44%) Solitary Man	1.88 1.88/1(+44%)	(3) Solitary Man 1.88/1, Promising sort. 13/2, took a small step forward when second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good) 51 days ago, no match for winner. Expected to be bang there with further progress on the cards. Sligo second encouraging, could go well well if handling likely softer ground.
2	8 2nd (8) (10/1 +44%) Cullaghs Star	10 10/1(+44%)	(8) Cullaghs Star 10/1, 14/1, possibly still needed the run when eighth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good) a fortnight ago. Mildly encouraging effort on latest but plenty more likely needed here.
3	10 3rd (10) (3.5/1 +13%) Presenting Lad	3.5 3.5/1(+13%)	(10) Presenting Lad 3.5/1, 7/2, career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Roscommon (15.5f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Up to a career-high mark but not taken lightly in his current mood. Ready Roscommon winner respected despite 8lb rise; won't want too much rain.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 +14%) Charcor	12 12/1(+14%)	(4) Charcor 12/1, Last of 15 in handicap (80/1) at the Curragh (10f, good) 19 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Has work to do. Little of note after two-year absence of late; best watched for now.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 +0%) Dixie Flyer	11 11/1(+0%)	(6) Dixie Flyer 11/1, Followed a below-par effort with an even worse one when eleventh of 13 in maiden hurdle (7/4) at Tramore (16f, good), going in snatches. Off 11 months and may prove significant that connections have persevered with him. Dropped out tamely at Tramore latest; questions to answer.
6th	14 6th (14) (6/1 -100%) Ricky Langford	6 6/1(-100%)	(14) Ricky Langford 6/1, C&D winner. Finally took advantage of a reduced mark to win 14-runner handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.8f, good to soft, 8/1) 13 days ago, pushed out. 6 lb higher and should remain competitive. Recent Wexford winner 6lb higher now but still on a fair mark; major player.
7th	11 7th (11) (22/1 -57%) Craic Eile	22 22/1(-57%)	(11) Craic Eile 22/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 12/1, again showed little when eighth of 11 in handicap at Tramore (16f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Cheekpieces back on. Best form at Tramore, though not on latest; others preferred.
8th	1 8th (1) (14/1 +22%) Bigz Belief	14 14/1(+22%)	(1) Bigz Belief 14/1, Latest win at Sligo in June. Run best excused when seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle there (16.9f, good, 7/1) 11 days ago, doing too much too soon. Dropped 2 lb and holds sound each-way claims. Too keen at Sligo last time, will need to settle much better.
9th	13 9th (13) (33/1 +50%) Baltinglass Hill	33 33/1(+50%)	(13) Baltinglass Hill 33/1, C&D winner. 100/1, seventeenth of 23 in handicap hurdle at Naas (18.9f, soft) just under 4 months ago. Blinkered for 1st time. C&D winner in 2021; ground to soft when last seen so won't want too much rain.
10th	2 10th (2) (14/1 +0%) Hisnameis Mrdevitt	14 14/1(+0%)	(2) Hisnameis Mrdevitt 14/1, Too free on first run since leaving Peter Fahey when sixth of 13 in maiden hurdle at Tramore (16f, good to soft, 7/1) 3 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running. Some decent runs in maidens last year and not one to rule out here off reduced mark.
11th	7 11th (7) (33/1 -106%) Must Meet Cecil	33 33/1(-106%)	(7) Must Meet Cecil 33/1, Beginning to feel the pinch when fell heavily 3 out in beginners chase at Tipperary (16.8f, soft, 50/1) 16 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Has shown little in handicaps and back hurdling here after taking a fall over fences.
12th	9 12th (9) (25/1 +0%) Mr Sundancer	25 25/1(+0%)	(9) Mr Sundancer 25/1, Held when ran out 2 out in handicap hurdle (18/1) at Perth (16.2f, good) 26 days ago. Best watched. Ran out at Perth on recent comeback but not one to rule out.
13th	5 13th (5) (66/1 -100%) Given Wings	66 66/1(-100%)	(5) Given Wings 66/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, too free on first run since leaving Henry De Bromhead when twelfth of 15 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Tipperary (20f, good to soft) 2 weeks ago, doing too much too soon. C&D maiden winner but recent comeback run leaves him with lots to find.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (18/1 -13%) Babylon Beach	18 18/1(-13%)	(12) Babylon Beach 18/1, Seemed to excel himself back over fences when second of 8 in beginners chase at this C&D (good, 28/1). Off 11 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Tongue strap on 1st time. Miaden runs well here so don't rule out with tongue tie tried, despite long absence.

LTO Selection:

RICKY LANGFORD exploited a lower hurdles mark at Wexford recently, having previously won off 12lb higher in a handicap chase at this venue. Philip Rothwell has elected to stay over flights with the nine-year-old and that decision looks like being rewarded. Even after being reassessed, the gelding is still on a more favourable rating in this discipline. Presenting Lad was a very easy winner at Roscommon earlier this month but the handicapper has had his say subsequently. However, given the ease with which he travelled throughout that contest, it is difficult to imagine the Mark McNiff-trained seven-year-old not playing a significant role. Charcor has run well on a couple of previous visits to this track and while those were on the flat, he is undoubtedly well handicapped over hurdles.

SOLITARY MAN took a small step forward when runner-up to a Willie Mullins favourite at Ballinrobe in May and with further progress on the cards, he's fancied to open his account at the expense of Presenting Lad, who proved better than ever when scoring at Roscommon recently. Ricky Langford and Bigz Belief can do battle for minor honours.

Recent Roscommon winner PRESENTING LAD gets the vote to see off recent Wexford scorer Ricky Langford

19:40 Killarney NH Flat Race 17f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	11 1st (11) (12/1 +25%) Easy Peasy	12 12/1(+25%)	(11) Easy Peasy 12/1, Walk In The Park filly. Closely related to 2 winners, including fair hurdler Barely Famous, and half-sister to 3 winners, including useful hurdler Cool Macavity. Debutante likely to need the experience.
2	10 2nd (10) (22/1 +67%) Dancing Dame	22 22/1(+67%)	(10) Dancing Dame 22/1, Decorated Knight filly. Dam fairly useful maiden on Flat. Probably best watched. Yard had a bumper winner at Cork recently so worth a market check.
3	9 3rd (9) (22/1 +67%) Thegraveyardbookie	22 22/1(+67%)	(9) Thegraveyardbookie 22/1, €8,500 3-y-o, Valirann gelding. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Resolute Bay. Newcomer likely best watched.
4	2 4th (2) (3/1 +88%) Can't Resist It	3 3/1(+88%)	(2) Can't Resist It 3/1, Getaway gelding. Dam (h105), bumper/2½m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Make My Heart Fly. Unplaced sole start in points (Feb 5). Beaten favourite in Belharbour 4yo maiden point-to-point in February.
5th	6 5th (6) (1.38/1 +50%) Master Otis	1.38 1.38/1(+50%)	(6) Master Otis 1.38/1, Acquitted himself well all 5 starts in bumpers, bit below his best when second of 14 at Tipperary (16f, good to soft, 6/4) 2 weeks ago. Holds solid claims. Most experienced of these and sets a fair standard on the best of his form.
6th	7 6th (7) (9/1 +18%) Plaisir Des Flos	9 9/1(+18%)	(7) Plaisir Des Flos 9/1, 4/1, shaped similarly to previously after 7 months off when fourth of 7 in bumper at Stratford (16.3f, good to soft) 16 days ago, late headway. Three runs have all been in Britain and plenty of improvement likely needed to feature.
7th	5 7th (5) (150/1 -50%) Marksetgo	150 150/1(-50%)	(5) Marksetgo 150/1, Offered little when eleventh of 14 in bumper at Tipperary (16f, good to soft, 33/1) on debut 2 weeks ago. Tailed off on recent Tipperary debut, can only be watched now.
8th	8 8th (8) (14/1 +44%) Rodney	14 14/1(+44%)	(8) Rodney 14/1, £16,000 4-y-o, Golden Horn gelding. Dam fairly useful 1½m winner on Flat. Market can guide. Unraced for Hughie Morrison; market likely best guide.
9th	3 9th (3) (80/1 +20%) Charlie Pops	80 80/1(+20%)	(3) Charlie Pops 80/1, 28/1, twelfth of 14 in bumper at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) on debut 2 weeks ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Behind throughout on recent Tipperary debut when a 28-1 shot; cheekpieces now fitted.
10th	1 10th (1) (4/1 +38%) Ally Kazoo	4 4/1(+38%)	(1) Ally Kazoo 4/1, El Kabeir gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including smart hurdler/chaser Threeunderthrufive, stays 4m, and useful chaser Benruben. Makes some paper appeal and the betting should prove informative. Half-brother to 4 bumper winners; market likely best guide.
11th	12 11th (12) (40/1 +39%) Frost Fairy	40 40/1(+39%)	(12) Frost Fairy 40/1, 6,500 gns 3-y-o, Dark Angel filly. Half-sister to 6.5f winner Mottrib. Dam winner up to 1¼m on Flat (2-y-o 1m winner). Flat-bred the lesser likely of the Hanlon pair.

LTO Selection:

ALLY KAZOO, a half-brother to three black-type winners, is worth a close market check for a stable that have traditionally done well with their bumper horses at this meeting. Derek O'Connor is a significant booking for the Sam Curling-trained gelding. Luckinthecity is another debutant that has to be given close consideration. From a family that has produced plenty of stayers on the flat, the Willie Mullins-trained newcomer is one of the more likely winners. Master Otis sets a fair standard, having finished runner-up on two of his five starts. The Tom Mullins-trained gelding has crucial racecourse experience which could count for plenty if he gets into a battle with one of the newcomers.

Those with racecourse experience don't set a tall standard so LUCKINTHECITY gets the nod to make a winning start for champion trainer Willie Mullins at the expense of Master Otis, who has acquitted himself well in all 5 starts in bumpers so far but was a bit below his best at Tipperary 2 weeks ago. Ally Kazoo and Plaisir des Flos can fight out third spot.

Willie Mullins introduces LUCKINTHECITY and he could well be good enough to score

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (4.5/1 +10%) Minella Diamond	4.5 4.5/1(+10%)	(4) Minella Diamond 4.5/1, Ran to a modest level when second of 10 in bumper (9/1) at Thurles (16.4f, heavy) on debut back in March. Thurles second in March franked since; one to consider.
2	9 2nd (9) (1.2/1 -50%) Longview Lady	1.2 1.2/1(-50%)	(9) Longview Lady 1.2/1, Mount Nelson mare. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart hurdler/high-class chaser (stays 21f) Bob Olinger. Trainer’s newcomers command respect. Yard almost unbeatable in bumpers at the moment; won't have to be a world-beater.
3	5 3rd (5) (3/1 +0%) Royal Moon	3 3/1(+0%)	(5) Royal Moon 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 7/1, stepped up on reappearance when fourth of 12 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good) 29 days ago. Solid bumper form and should be thereabouts.
4	8 4th (8) (150/1 -50%) The Shantou King	150 150/1(-50%)	(8) The Shantou King 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 100/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, tailed-off tenth of 12 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good) 29 days ago. Nothing of note so far in maiden hurdles and bumpers.
5th	6 5th (6) (5/1 +55%) Sequestered	5 5/1(+55%)	(6) Sequestered 5/1, 33/1, made more impact than previously after 3 months off when third of 12 in bumper at Kilbeggan (16f, good) 31 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Leonard Paul Flynn. Kilbeggan run encouraging and has changed yards since.
6th	1 6th (1) (10/1 +88%) Final Edgar	10 10/1(+88%)	(1) Final Edgar 10/1, Imperial Monarch gelding. Dam (h73), maiden hurdler, half-sister to useful hurdler (winner around 2m) Never Enough Time. Fell sole start in points (Apr 23). Fell on sole point-to-point; unlikely type to make an immediate impact under rules.
7th	7 7th (7) (80/1 +20%) The Contractor	80 80/1(+20%)	(7) The Contractor 80/1, 33/1, last of 9 in bumper at Leopardstown (16f, soft) on debut, dropping away quickly. Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Richard John O'Brien. Tailed off on Leopardstown debut for Richard O'Brien; switched yards since.
8th	3 8th (3) (80/1 +47%) Hurry Up Allen	80 80/1(+47%)	(3) Hurry Up Allen 80/1, Gris De Gris gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/chaser Dynamic Allen, stayed 3m, and French 2½m chase winner Easy Allen. Unplaced completed start in points, pulled up last time (Dec 2021). Wears tongue strap. Moderate point-to-point form in 2021 and absent since.
9th	12 9th (12) (200/1 -100%) The Coach Lady	200 200/1(-100%)	(12) The Coach Lady 200/1, 125/1, fifteenth of 18 in maiden hurdle at Listowel (16f, good) on NH debut 45 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Pulled-up in two points' and tailed off in Listowel maiden hurdle last month.
10th	11 10th (11) (100/1 +0%) Sister Emmanuel	100 100/1(+0%)	(11) Sister Emmanuel 100/1, Saddle slipped and unseated rider before halfway in bumper (150/1) at Wexford (20.7f, good to soft) on debut 13 days ago. 150-1 shot on recent Wexford debut, unseating after saddle slipped halfway.
11th	10 11th (10) (16/1 -129%) Silver Lark	16 16/1(-129%)	(10) Silver Lark 16/1, 13/2, proved a let-down when seventh of 14 in bumper at Clonmel (16.2f, soft) 70 days ago. Should bounce back for her top trainer. Promising debut run not backed up on softer ground since; needs to bounce back.
12th	2 12th (2) (66/1 -32%) Henry Danger	66 66/1(-32%)	(2) Henry Danger 66/1, Offered little when ninth of 12 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good, 25/1) on debut 29 days ago. Never counted on last month's debut at Wexford; best watched.

LTO Selection:

ROYAL MOON has shaped with promise on all five starts under rules, including when partnered by today's rider on his last two runs. The Edward O'Grady-trained five-year-old is more exposed than a few of these rivals but sets a fair standard that may only be bettered by an above average newcomer. Longview Lady is the most obvious contender from the latter category, given that she represents the Willie Mullins-Jody Townend partnership. Being the first foal of an unraced dam, she is difficult to weigh up but her trainer has an embarrassment of riches in this division. Silver Lark was only just beaten on her debut at Thurles in February but has failed to back that up in two subsequent runs. Perhaps, a return to better ground will see the Gordon Elliott-trained mare recapture her earlier form.

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal with SILVER LARK getting the vote to get back on track after a below-par effort at Clonmel 10 weeks ago. Willie Mullins is represented by Longview Lady and she ticks plenty of boxes, with Royal Moon and Minella Diamond another couple worth keeping an eye on.

Hardly original but the nicely-bred LONGVIEW LADY looks a another likely first-time out bumper winner for the Willie Mullins yard

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.
