1	2 1st (2) (1/2 +64%) Benvenuto Cellini		0.5 1/2(+64%)																															(2) Benvenuto Cellini 1/2, Top yard has five of last 10 runnings; built on high debut promise when winning a 1m maiden at Killarney in good style last time; that form is working out well; big chance. Ready Killarney winner over this trip and on similar ground; major chance.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/4 +58%) Hardy Warrior		2.75 11/4(+58%)																															(3) Hardy Warrior 11/4, Benefited for debut experience (when behind Benvenuto Cellini) when winning a C&D maiden well here last time (made all); this calls for more but he's promising and unexposed. C&D winner last time on similar ground; held by Benvenuto Cellini previously.
3	5 3rd (5) (40/1 -43%) Nil Bua Gan Dua		40 40/1(-43%)																															(5) Nil Bua Gan Dua 40/1, Promising debut fourth in a maiden over 7f at The Curragh; jockey bookings suggest that Hardy Warrior is stable number one; plenty more needed. Not sure this sort of stamina test is what he wants at this stage.
4	1 4th (1) (17/2 +15%) A Boy Named Susie		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(1) A Boy Named Susie 17/2, Won well on debut at Killarney (1m, soft) but didn't really build on that when fourth of five in Curragh Gr 2 back at 7f last time; perhaps 1m suits better but bit to prove after last time. Impressed at Killarney on soft; trip/ground may not have suited latest; don't rule out.

Tactics should be fascinating in this Group 2. Aidan O'Brien's MONTREAL was an impressive eight-length winner off the front in a maiden over C&D last month, to put himself firmly in the 'could be anything' category, after which connections identified this race. He holds Group 1 entries for the end of the season and looks to be a colt with considerable potential. His stablemate, Benvenuto Cellini, also made all to get off the mark in a Killarney maiden (on yielding to soft ground) that has thrown up subsequent winners including fourth-placed Hardy Warrior over C&D. Benvenuto Cellini has all the 'right' entries and is a major contender. Nil Bua Gan Dua is a massive price, but could outrun his odds.

All five trained by the O'Briens, with BENVENUTO CELLINI taken to repel stablemate Montreal

1	8 1st (8) (3/1 +45%) Convergent		3 3/1(+45%)																															(8) Convergent 3/1, Lightly-raced colt who has quickly made up into very smart sort, including Chester Vase third (form worked out well) and latest German Derby second; major player. Touched off in German Derby; very interesting contender now taking on his elders.
2	4 2nd (4) (33/1 +0%) Fleetfoot		33 33/1(+0%)																															(4) Fleetfoot 33/1, Raced freely when below-par over 1m6f at York last time; in good form prior to that in 12f handicaps; more needed even if back to best, returned to 12f. Progressed into smart 1m4f handicapper but upped in grade now and much more needed.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/1 -100%) Sons And Lovers		11 11/1(-100%)																															(2) Sons And Lovers 11/1, Yard won this last year; well backed when winning Gr 3 upped to 12f here last time; trainer in form; bit more needed. Dictated to win Ballyroan over C&D last month; won't have it so easy here.
4	7 4th (7) (8/1 +60%) Acapulco Bay		8 8/1(+60%)																															(7) Acapulco Bay 8/1, Yard has won two of last five runnings; trip/ground are no problem but this good handicapper has plenty to find in this company. Placed on five of six starts this term, including C&D Listed; fair bit to find.
5th	1 5th (1) (5/4 +29%) Al Aasy		1.25 5/4(+29%)																															(1) Al Aasy 5/4, Bit in hand won Gr 3 at Goodwood by 3l last time; 8y remains a highly potent force at Gr 3 level; acts on soft but really testing ground would be a concern; big chance otherwise. 8 wins at Group 3 level, as good as ever at Goodwood recently; the one to beat.
6th	10 6th (10) (11/1 +21%) Reyenzi		11 11/1(+21%)																															(10) Reyenzi 11/1, Lightly-raced and very useful handicapper at up to 10.5f; acts on soft; hood first time; may come on again but has a fair bit to find. Won on soft but first attempt at 1m4f here with hood tried; others likely stronger stayers.
7th	3 7th (3) (6/1 +8%) Trustyourinstinct		6 6/1(+8%)																															(3) Trustyourinstinct 6/1, Won this last year; in fine form when last seen out in May/June; very much a leading contender. Thriving of late but faces a different class of opponent here in Al Aaasy.
8th	5 8th (5) (50/1 -52%) Sunchart		50 50/1(-52%)																															(5) Sunchart 50/1, Has his requisite soft ground for this return to the Flat; needs to refind best form but each-way claims if he can. Ground now in his favour but faces stronger stayers at this trip.
9th	6 9th (6) (40/1 +39%) Mo Ghille Mar		40 40/1(+39%)																															(6) Mo Ghille Mar 40/1, Useful handicapper but a lot to find upped in grade here; there's also a slight doubt about the ground. Useful handicapper, winning at Down Royal this term but hard to see her featuring.

AL AASY holds strong claims for William Haggas. The comfortable manner in which he put away the placed horses rated 110 and 108 when landing a Group 3 at Goodwood was taking. He's a money-spinner for connections, enjoys this trip and is ground versatile. Trustyourinstinct is very solid at Group 3 level as evidenced by winning this race last year. He should be fresh as he has been off since readily scoring at the Curragh in June. Lightly-raced Convergent has seen his mark rocket to 112 after a third place in the Chester Vase, while Sons And Lovers would prefer better ground but shouldn't be discounted. It's A Heartbeat has been dismissed by the bookmakers, but is a progressive sort.

Last year's winner Trustyourinstinct is respected but AL AASY (nap) looks a tough nut to crack

1	2 1st (2) (9/4 +0%) Fallen Angel		2.25 9/4(+0%)																															(2) Fallen Angel 9/4, Irish 1,000 Guineas winner in 2024; rallying winner of Gr 1 at Deauville last time, edging out January; has the form to have a very big say if rider gets the fractions right from stall two. Established star, second in this 12 months ago, can confirm Deauville form with January.
2	10 2nd (10) (10/3 +79%) Exactly		3.333333 10/3(+79%)																															(10) Exactly 10/3, Both wins (in 12 starts) have been here; creditable runs in 1m and then 7f Gr 1s most recently but needs to find a bit extra now if she's to be involved in a major way. Sixth in the Coronation, fifth behind Fallen Angel in the Prix Rothschild, up against it.
3	6 3rd (6) (25/1 +0%) Atsila		25 25/1(+0%)																															(6) Atsila 25/1, Yard won this last year; done well in this first season racing but Gr 1s have proved too much in last three starts and more of the same is likely here; tongue-tie first time. Out of the money in three Group 1 attempts since beating Cercene at the Curragh in May.
4	8 4th (8) (16/1 +0%) Cathedral		16 16/1(+0%)																															(8) Cathedral 16/1, Ran to form when second over 9f at Chantilly latest but 1m is probably a better fit; seemingly held by Cercene on previous Gr 1 Ascot (1m) running; has changed yards; others preferred. Fourth behind Cercene in the Coronation Stakes, good run on soft in a Group 3 last time.
5th	9 5th (9) (5/1 -43%) Cercene		5 5/1(-43%)																															(9) Cercene 5/1, Smart filly earlier on but has improved in Gr 1 win at Ascot and then second in 10f Gr 1 at Goodwood on contrasting ground most recently; every reason to expect another bold show. Third in Irish 1,000 Guineas, shock winner of Coronation Stakes, solid run in the Nassau.
6th	3 6th (3) (40/1 +20%) Queen Of Thunder		40 40/1(+20%)																															(3) Queen Of Thunder 40/1, One win in eight starts; career-best form when close second in Gr 3 at Tipperary latest; looks to be flying a bit too high here. Went very close in a recent Group 3 event at Tipperary, unlikely to feature at this level.
7th	11 7th (11) (10/3 -33%) January		3.333333 10/3(-33%)																															(11) January 10/3, Yard has won two of last 10 runnings; close second to Fallen Angel in Gr 1 at Deauville latest; cheekpieces first time now; unraced on slower than good to soft; leading form contender. Placed four times in Group 1 races, closely matched with Fallen Angel on Deauville run.
8th	4 8th (4) (25/1 +24%) Sparks Fly		25 25/1(+24%)																															(4) Sparks Fly 25/1, Not at best in two starts this season but latest third in Gr 3 in June was okay as she was left with a lot to do; four Listed wins with favoured give in the ground; bit to find at this level. Four-time Listed winner in Britain and France, most effective in very testing conditions.
9th	1 9th (1) (80/1 +20%) Duckadilly		80 80/1(+20%)																															(1) Duckadilly 80/1, Lightly-raced filly who ran to form when second in a Listed race at Killarney upped to 1m latest; much more needed. Fourth behind Vera's Secret in a Group 3 event and Listed-placed, an unenviable task here.
10th	5 10th (5) (14/1 -17%) Vera's Secret		14 14/1(-17%)																															(5) Vera's Secret 14/1, Late-blooming 6yo who made it three from three here with latest all-the-way win in Gr 3 (7f; has won at 1m here too); this demands a definite step up, though. Group 2 second behind Porta Fortuna before 7f Group 3 course win, smart late-maturing mare.
11th	7 11th (7) (50/1 -52%) California Dreamer		50 50/1(-52%)																															(7) California Dreamer 50/1, Front-runner who was second in the Irish 1,000 Guineas at The Curragh (1m, good) in May but rest of her form doesn't compare and is easy to oppose overall; doubt about soft ground too. Irish 1,000 Guineas runner-up, has failed to match that form in three more recent outings.

FALLEN ANGEL pipped January by a head in the Group 1 Prix Rothschild at Deauville last month and may have her measure again. She gave January 7lb in France and is better off in this contest as she has to concede her 5lb. Fallen Angel was runner-up in this race last year. There is a big day in January, who has been placed on her last three outings in Group 1 company and Christophe Soumillon gets the leg up for the second time having partnered her in Deauville. The likeable Cercene was successful at the highest level at Royal Ascot and is a contender. If there is to be an upset on this ground, mudlark Sparks Fly is a big price.

Already twice a Group 1 winner in Ireland and second to Porta Fortuna here 12 months ago, FALLEN ANGEL can enhance her fine record

1	6 1st (6) (7/2 +36%) Alakazi		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(6) Alakazi 7/2, Lightly-raced and gradually progressive 3yo who has been second behind two of these rivals most recently; unproven on soft; may well come on again and much respected. Improving 3yo will appreciate a strong pace, unproven on soft.
2	4 2nd (4) (16/1 +0%) Mutasarref		16 16/1(+0%)																															(4) Mutasarref 16/1, Pick of his 2024 form, including when second in this race, would make him a live contender but not quite so potent as a 7yo this season; acts on soft and has won four times here. Loves it around here but not at his best this year and will do well to make the frame.
3	7 3rd (7) (11/1 -100%) Comanche Brave		11 11/1(-100%)																															(7) Comanche Brave 11/1, Won a minor event on yielding last time but there's still a slight ground question here; big form chance if he does cope, including sound fifth in Irish 2,000 Guineas at The Curragh in May. Highly tried 3yo a contender on best form although soft ground may not suit.
4	5 4th (5) (5/1 -82%) Skukuza		5 5/1(-82%)																															(5) Skukuza 5/1, Below-par on soft two starts ago, though other factors might have been at play then too; back to form with latest slightly unlucky third in Gr 3 at York and leading form claims. Progressive 4yo a major player if handling the ground conditions.
5th	3 5th (3) (28/1 -40%) Lord Massusus		28 28/1(-40%)																															(3) Lord Massusus 28/1, Below-par run here last time is a negative; peak form, including C&D Listed-race win in April, makes him an each-way player; acts on soft; no hood today. Dual C&D winner including Listed in April; has to improve on recent form though.
6th	8 6th (8) (10/3 +76%) Expanded		3.333333 10/3(+76%)																															(8) Expanded 10/3, Yard won this last year; disappointing again when down the field in Irish 2,000 Guineas at The Curragh in May; big chance if refinding form of last autumn's Gr 1 Dewhurst second (soft). Guineas' flop has been waiting for soft ground so potential improver.
7th	1 7th (1) (15/2 +25%) Chicago Critic		7.5 15/2(+25%)																															(1) Chicago Critic 15/2, Ran to form when a length third to Johan in Gr 3 here most recent run; usually held up; no more than minor place claims. Third to Johan in C&D Desmond Stakes; likely stronger pace to suit but this a deeper race.
8th	9 8th (9) (6/1 +25%) Scorthy Champ		6 6/1(+25%)																															(9) Scorthy Champ 6/1, Soft ground an unknown factor; Gr 1 winner as a 2yo and though this season's form doesn't match that, such as his sixth in Irish 2,000 Guineas doesn't leave him much to find; claims. National Stakes winner a year ago but yet to show he's trained on.
9th	2 9th (2) (7/1 -17%) Johan		7 7/1(-17%)																															(2) Johan 7/1, Good strike-rate includes first Group-race win when making all in Gr 3 over C&D on last month's reappearance; leading player. All-the-way C&D Desmond Stakes win last month; acts on soft, could go well.

No less than five of these faced off in the Desmond Stakes over the course and distance early last month, with JOHAN making all to register a 10th career success. Ronan Whelan retains the ride on the Jack Channon-trained eight-year-old, who is notably proven on soft ground. The underfoot conditions are more of an unknown for fellow UK raider Skukuza. Two from two in Ireland and comfortably accounting for some of these rivals at the Curragh in June, he didn't get the run of the race when a never-nearer third on his most recent start at York. Second in this race 12 months ago, Mutasarref always warrants the utmost respect at Leopardstown, while the five three-year-olds in the line-up are all of varying degrees of interest. Just half a length off the selection when last seen, Alakazi is sure to have plenty of supporters, while Donnacha O'Brien's Commanche Brave is another leading hope.

Despite concerns over the ground it could pay to side with SKUKUZA after a luckless York run, Alakazi looking a danger

1	5 1st (5) (2/1 -33%) Delacroix		2 2/1(-33%)																															(5) Delacroix 2/1, Yard has won this 12 times since 2000; dual C&D winner in the spring but better form in two very good Gr 1s efforts more recently, last time second at York; leading form contender. Dual C&D winner in trials before Derby flop, reputation largely restored, major player.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/1 +0%) Anmaat		4 4/1(+0%)																															(1) Anmaat 4/1, Winner of two Gr 1s, latterly in Champion Stakes (10f, soft) at Ascot last year; similarly top-class form in two fine runs this May/June; said to have trained well for this; good form chance. Ended last season with Champion Stakes triumph, has continued momentum at the age of seven.
3	2 3rd (2) (18/1 -13%) Royal Champion		18 18/1(-13%)																															(2) Royal Champion 18/1, Career-best effort when winning well in Gr 2 at York last time doesn't leave with all that much to find but has been unplaced in two previous Gr 1 attempts and faster ground preferable. Brought form to a new level with Group 2 win at York, still plenty to prove in top grade.
4	6 4th (6) (18/1 +36%) Hotazhell		18 18/1(+36%)																															(6) Hotazhell 18/1, Gr 1 winner as a 2yo, beating Delacroix (who's improved since); seemingly held by Delacroix on Sandown running in July and is up against it. Beat Delacroix in last year's Futurity, has failed to make a major impact this season.
5th	4 5th (4) (13/2 +19%) White Birch		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(4) White Birch 13/2, Top-class on his day; would have been very close to Anmaat (second) but for a troubled run at The Curragh in latest run, in May; capable of a very bold show if fully primed for this. Training issues have blighted his career, good enough to make a major impact at this level.
6th	3 6th (3) (4/1 +27%) Shin Emperor		4 4/1(+27%)																															(3) Shin Emperor 4/1, Well beaten in Sheema Classic at Meydan latest in April but did too much too soon and much better than that; bit more needed even on form of last year's good third in this though. Unlucky not to finish closer when third last year, big chance if things fall into place.
7th	8 7th (8) (11/2 +0%) Zahrann		5.5 11/2(+0%)																															(8) Zahrann 11/2, Quickly made up into a very smart colt in this first season racing, last time winning a Gr 3 at The Curragh; needs to take an abnormally big step forward to quite win this, though. An unknown quantity in a Group 1 context, a rapidly maturing sort, could produce a big run.
8th	7 8th (7) (50/1 +67%) Mount Kilimanjaro		50 50/1(+67%)																															(7) Mount Kilimanjaro 50/1, Smart colt who was a Listed winner at Chester in May; 12f on fast ground plausible excuses for below-par latest run when back from a break; presumably in here as a pacemaker. Dee Stakes winner, inconclusive run in the Great Voltigeur, supporting role here.

With conditions in his favour, WHITE BIRCH could register a famous win for John Murphy. The likeable grey had no luck in running when a never-nearer fourth in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh in May, with connections then opting to skip the summer and wait for easier autumn ground. On ratings, Delacroix is the one to beat. One of four three-year-olds in the line-up, he is already a dual C&D winner and will bid to provide Aidan O'Brien with a 13th success in this prestigious contest. Not getting the run of the race when third in last year's renewal, Japanese raider Shin Emperor warrants the utmost respect, while the highly-regarded Zahrann and Anmaat, who won last season's UK equivalent, are other leading hopes. Finally getting his favoured ground, Hotazhell is another who can't be discounted, with this Jessica Harrington-trained bay memorably overturning Delacroix in the Futurity Trophy at Doncaster last year.

The obvious one is Delarcroix but it may be worth taking a chance with the progressive ZAHRANN on soft ground that may suit

1	11 1st (11) (9/1 +25%) Happy Pharoah		9 9/1(+25%)																															(11) Happy Pharoah 9/1, Gradually progressive 3yo who won twice over C&D before latest second in 14f Listed race here; that wasn't the strongest of races for the grade and bit more needed now; not dismissed. Dual C&D winner this year on better ground; soft ground an unknown though.
2	17 2nd (17) (9/2 -13%) Light As Air		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(17) Light As Air 9/2, Yard won this with a 3yo last year; won a maiden at The Curragh over 12f last time, shaping as if a bit further would suit; blinkers first time; on a fair mark and one for the shortlist. 1m4f maiden winner could have more to offer at this trip; 1lb wrong but rider claims 5lb.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/2 +61%) Aeronautic		3.5 7/2(+61%)																															(5) Aeronautic 7/2, Creditable recent efforts in good 14f handicaps at Ascot and Goodwood entitle this comparatively lightly-raced 4yo to be on the shortlist. Good efforts in big handicaps at Ascot and Goodwood; contender if settling better.
3	12 3rd (12) (17/2 -42%) Too Bossy For Us		8.5 17/2(-42%)																															(12) Too Bossy For Us 17/2, Yard has won two of last 10 runnings; wide trip when down the field at Galway most recent; each-way chance on such as his previous second of 25 at The Curragh (2m; 13f should be fine). Galway disappointment on a retrieval mission but soft ground an unknown.
5th	7 5th (7) (25/1 -56%) Bunting		25 25/1(-56%)																															(7) Bunting 25/1, Yard has won two of last 10 runnings; useful dual-purpose performer who is unexposed in this sphere but definitely needs to step up on latest Galway run when back from a break. Just okay fourth in Galway conditions event on flat return; opening mark on the high side.
6th	14 6th (14) (14/1 -17%) Lord Church		14 14/1(-17%)																															(14) Lord Church 14/1, Very respectable recent runs for his shrewd stable, including at Galway last time; 12f stamina isn't conclusively proven (unraced at further); cheekpieces first time; each-way chance. Disappointing Galway favourite; cheekpieces tried but unproven over this far.
7th	3 7th (3) (14/1 -27%) Helvic Dream		14 14/1(-27%)																															(3) Helvic Dream 14/1, Not the force of old but recent in-form runs on the Flat and (more recently) hurdling entitle this 8yo to plenty of each-way respect here. Demoted from Galway Hurdle win; big player back on the Flat on ground he likes.
8th	6 8th (6) (40/1 -21%) Sea The Boss		40 40/1(-21%)																															(6) Sea The Boss 40/1, Yard has won two of last five runnings; Gr 3 winner against her own sex last season (10f); something to find on balance of form though and stamina still to prove on handicap debut now. Hasn't progressed this year, not an obvious contender for this step up in trip.
9th	10 9th (10) (17/2 +58%) Zanndabad		8.5 17/2(+58%)																															(10) Zanndabad 17/2, Has long threatened to win a big handicap, including when an eye-catcher at York last time, when one of several principals who came from the clouds; fair mark and high on the list here. Strong-finishing York fourth puts him right in the mix; handles soft ground too.
10th	8 10th (8) (28/1 -56%) Comfort Zone		28 28/1(-56%)																															(8) Comfort Zone 28/1, Good staying handicapper who would have a squeak on his best form, including 2m4f Ascot third in June, but was below form latest and a bit further would suit better. Tame Galway run but a contender on previous Ascot third; handles soft ground.
11th	2 11th (2) (25/1 -108%) London City		25 25/1(-108%)																															(2) London City 25/1, Top yard won this last year; going possibly too fast for him at York most recently; interesting that he's been kept on by all-conquering yard as a 4yo but something to prove on form. Ebor also-ran remains opposable off this mark.
12th	1 12th (1) (9/2 +63%) Harbour Wind		4.5 9/2(+63%)																															(1) Harbour Wind 9/2, Yard has won two of last 10 runnings; classy sort but hasn't quite recaptured best form as yet this season; possibilities if - and it is an 'if' - he can do so now. Not discredited under hefty weights in Curragh premier handicaps in June; more needed.
13th	19 13th (19) (100/1 -52%) Razdan		100 100/1(-52%)																															(19) Razdan 100/1, Not at best lately; cheekpieces first time; easy to oppose from well out of the handicap (8lb). Stamina concerns on this ground; new headgear combination and tough ask.
14th	9 14th (9) (28/1 -133%) Charlus		28 28/1(-133%)																															(9) Charlus 28/1, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; Listed placed in his days in France, in spring 2024; 2m hurdles winner for this yard; something to prove on recent Flat form at 14f. Ebor also-ran can't be ruled out probably needs to step up to play a major role.
15th	4 15th (4) (28/1 -27%) Crypto Force		28 28/1(-27%)																															(4) Crypto Force 28/1, Feasible mark on pick of his 2024 form in particular but patchy overall in recent times and stamina still isn't conclusively proven either; others preferred. Highly-tried, not sure if he can run to this mark in handicap company; stamina unproven.
16th	16 16th (16) (40/1 +39%) God Of Thunder		40 40/1(+39%)																															(16) God Of Thunder 40/1, Won in good style at Limerick in June but something to prove on balance of form; refused to race on next run after that win; runs 6.15 Clonmel Thursday. Limerick winner on good; no sort of run on AW latest; 1lb wrong..
17th	15 17th (15) (18/1 -29%) Buddy One		18 18/1(-29%)																															(15) Buddy One 18/1, Jumping fences remains an issue judging by latest run in Galway Plate (still ran well); very smart staying hurdler won a 13f Flat maiden at Ballinrobe in July and interesting runner here. Smart hurdler unexposed on Flat after Ballinrobe maiden win; could have more to offer.

HELVIC DREAM would be a most deserving winner. A versatile performer, the Noel Meade-trained eight-year-old was controversially demoted to second after claiming the Galway Hurdle in July. Over four years on from his Group 1 success, the likeable bay still retains plenty of ability and it'll be disappointing if he's not involved towards the business end. Curragh maiden winner Light As Air is sure to have plenty of supporters in first-time blinkers, while the fellow Aidan O'Brien-trained London City is another that warrants the utmost respect. It'll be interesting to see if the fitting of cheekpieces have the desired effect on Lord Church, while Too Bossy For Us appears the pick of the Willie Mullins representatives. Winning two of the last four renewals, Jessica Harrington relies on Sea The Boss and she can't be discounted, while others for the shortlist are Happy Pharoah and Aeronautic.

Poorly placed off a steady pace, finishing 15th beaten 6l off 87 last time. Usually held up. Significant jockey booking. Effective at 1m, progressive but the handicapper has reacted. Three-time winner since March, has also put in some poor efforts such as on latest.
2	20 2nd (20) (40/1 -21%) Anvika		40 40/1(-21%)																															(20) Anvika 40/1, Stumbled badly early but did well to finish close, running to form when fourth, beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Navan latest. Consistent at 7-8f on a sound surface. Slow starts remain an issue but in good form. Slow-starting tendency is a major concern, fared well in adverse circumstances on latest.
3	4 3rd (4) (25/1 -25%) Mallavelly		25 25/1(-25%)																															(4) Mallavelly 25/1, Improved when needing every yard down in trip, landing a handicap by 3/4l off 84 over 7f at Tipperary penultimate start.

Progressive in handicaps here and at Tipperary, not disgraced in a Group 3 last time.
4	15 4th (15) (18/1 +28%) Empress Artemis		18 18/1(+28%)																															(15) Empress Artemis 18/1, Ran to form when benefitting from a drop in grade, landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off 80 at Bellewstown last time. Effective at 1m on good, good to firm, or all-weather. Steadily progressing. Bellewstown win came after three consecutive seconds, probably vulnerable in this grade.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/1 +0%) Tachos		11 11/1(+0%)																															(9) Tachos 11/1, Improved again back down in trip on quicker ground when beaten 3/4l off 81 here last time. Off a short break. Effective 8-10f on good to firm, good, or soft, probably best on a sound surface. Progressive. Course winner over 1m1f in June; C&D third behind Mallavelly in July, may turn the tables.
6th	18 6th (18) (11/4 +73%) Shavasi		2.75 11/4(+73%)																															(18) Shavasi 11/4, Short of room late and with too much to do over a sharp enough trip, beaten 3/4l off 81 over 7f at Tipperary last time. Needs 1m+, acts on any ground, in form and on a fair mark. Has been running over shorter trips, no luck at Tipperary on latest, return to 1m may suit.
7th	3 7th (3) (28/1 +15%) Bella Isabella		28 28/1(+15%)																															(3) Bella Isabella 28/1, Something amiss when finishing down the field in the Cairn Rouge Stakes (Listed) at Killarney most recently. Off a short break. Effective 7-8f on a sound surface. Excuses latest run, in good form earlier in the spring.

Returning from a long layoff with a significant jockey booking. Effective 7-8f on soft. Generally consistent in France. AW winner in France at two, hard to assess, trainer has two other runners.
9th	2 9th (2) (22/1 +45%) Independent Expert		22 22/1(+45%)																															(2) Independent Expert 22/1, Ran to form when beaten 3l off 92 at The Curragh last time. Effective at 1m and acts on any ground. Inconsistent and her mark looks stiff. Down the field in three runs since Naas win in May, faces a stiff task under a big weight.
14	14 |U| (14) (16/1 -14%) Serialise		16 16/1(-14%)																															(14) Serialise 16/1, No obvious excuse when beaten 7l in a handicap here last time. Cheekpieces first time. Effective 7-8f on a sound surface. Holds no secrets from the handicapper. Unplaced favourite for C&D event won by Onemoredance, trainer also runs Proxima Centauri.
10th	1 10th (1) (33/1 -106%) Quadruple		33 33/1(-106%)																															(1) Quadruple 33/1, Quickened clear when improving down in trip and grade in first-time cheekpieces, scoring by 3l off 86 over 7f at The Curragh penultimate start. Ran to form when fourth, beaten 4l off 95 last time. Effective 7f-1m, progressive but the handicapper has reacted. Curragh winner on penultimate start, her stable appears to have stronger candidates.
11th	12 11th (12) (12/1 +64%) Plume Noire		12 12/1(+64%)																															(12) Plume Noire 12/1, Ran to form back down in trip, beaten 3l off 85 over 7f at The Curragh last time. Returning from a break. Effective 7-8f, acts on yielding or good, but inconsistent. Made a bright start for this stable at the Curragh in May, absent since, can go well fresh.
12th	7 12th (7) (9/1 -64%) Noli Timere		9 9/1(-64%)																															(7) Noli Timere 9/1, Well handicapped up 5lb and improved again when landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off 82 at Navan last time. Effective at 8-9f, progressive with more to come. Backed up a maiden with a comfortable Navan success on handicap debut, may improve again.
13th	6 13th (6) (13/2 -18%) Onemoredance		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(6) Onemoredance 13/2, Latest form franked and improved again, making all to land a handicap by 2l off 85 here last time.

Below form up in trip and well beaten latest. Off a short break. Effective at 7f on good ground, but needs to improve to defy a higher mark and rise in grade. Won a 7f handicap in June, faced a tough task in a Listed race on first try at 1m.
15th	17 15th (17) (16/1 -33%) Luscious		16 16/1(-33%)																															(17) Luscious 16/1, Quickened clear when easily winning a maiden at Naas by 5l last time. Steadily progressive and off a short break. Progressing at 1m on good ground. Had plenty to spare when making all to win a maiden at Naas, trainer has a strong hand.
16th	10 16th (10) (8/1 -33%) Continuite		8 8/1(-33%)																															(10) Continuite 8/1, Up in trip and may not have stayed, well beaten in the Hurry Harriet Stakes (Listed) over 9f at Gowran Park latest. In good form prior. Progressive in maidens at 1m on a sound surface. Maiden form franked and can bounce back down in grade.

Significant jockey booking. Drawn on the wing of a large field. Off a short break. Effective 7-8f, suited by cut, and maiden win working out very well. 7f course maiden winner on soft for Dermot Weld, relatively unexposed filly, stable debut.
18th	13 18th (13) (12/1 -60%) Proxima Centauri		12 12/1(-60%)																															(13) Proxima Centauri 12/1, Quickened clear when comfortably winning a maiden at Roscommon by 4 1/4l last time. Steadily progressive, exceptionally bred and improving over 7-8f. More to come in handicaps, opening mark looks lenient. Dam was a star, a wide-margin maiden win indicates she is getting the hang of things.
19th	11 19th (11) (28/1 +15%) Letherfly		28 28/1(+15%)																															(11) Letherfly 28/1, Needed the run when fourth, beaten 6l in a Conditions Race over 6f at Naas latest.

It might be worth taking a chance on PLUME NOIRE in this wide open contest. An eye-catching fifth on her debut for Gerry Keane at the Curragh in May, she's a battle-hardened individual who appreciates cut in the ground. Out of the brilliant Alpha Centauri, Proxima Centauri is the second choice. She made the breakthrough at Roscommon last month and could prove nicely treated off a mark of 86. One of five Ger Lyons-trained representatives in the line-up, Continuite is sure to have plenty of supporters with Nicola Burns claiming a valuable 7lb, while Johnny Murtagh's Onemoredance and the hat-trick seeking Noli Timere are other leading hopes. One of three for Joseph O'Brien, French import Um Wadi is another for the shortlist.

A sister to a Group 3 winner, Frankel filly CONTINUITE is potentially interesting with Nicola Burns taking off a valuable 7lb

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.
