12:00 Leopardstown Maiden Hurdle 16f - 28 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	19 1st (19) (3/1 -9%) No Flies On Him	3 3/1(-9%)	(19) No Flies On Him 3/1, €82,000 3-y-o, Westerner gelding. Dam 2m-2½m hurdle/chase winner. One of just 4 to complete when landing a 9-runner maiden point in February (second, third and fourth have all scored under Rules since). Very much of interest on this hurdles debut. Form of his Knockanard point wins looks very solid, noteworthy owner/ trainer combination.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/2 -80%) D B Cooper	4.5 9/2(-80%)	(8) D B Cooper 9/2, Once-raced maiden. 4/5, second of 8 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) on NH debut 32 days ago. That was a promising Rules debut and this point winner is respected now switched to hurdles. Won his only point start, beaten at odds-on in a bumper at Fairyhouse, should go close.
3	4 3rd (4) (6/4 +33%) Ascending	1.5 6/4(+33%)	(4) Ascending 6/4, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. 7/2, respectable third of 22 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.5f, soft) 40 days ago. The two that beat him that day are good prospects (the runner-up scored next time) and he sets a good standard. Fifth in last season's Triumph Hurdle, form of Punchestown third has been boosted.
4	15 4th (15) (50/1 +67%) Kings Hill	50 50/1(+67%)	(15) Kings Hill 50/1, Promising individual. Thirteenth of 24 in novice hurdle (100/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) on NH debut 24 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve. Never closer than mid-division when 100-1 in a 24-runner maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse.
5th	28 5th (28) (18/1 -50%) Sansrisk	18 18/1(-50%)	(28) Sansrisk 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden under Rules. 16/1, second of 13 in novice hurdle at Thurles (16.5f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 26 days ago. Strong each-way claims. Placed on the first of two bumper runs, confirmed promise when second on hurdling debut.
6th	14 6th (14) (18/1 -100%) I Am Lorenzo	18 18/1(-100%)	(14) I Am Lorenzo 18/1, €120,000 3-y-o, Milan gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler/chase winner Shearer. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/high-class chaser (stayed 3m) Empire of Dirt. Plenty to like on paper and he's one to note in the betting. Newcomer from a top stable, half-brother to Shearer, a very useful sort for Paul Nicholls.
7th	2 7th (2) (50/1 -25%) Ankud	50 50/1(-25%)	(2) Ankud 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Below form seventh of 15 in novice hurdle at Thurles (15.9f, good to soft, 16/1) 9 days ago. Jockey bookings suggest that D B Cooper is the stable No 1. Placed in bumpers and on first of two hurdle runs, D B Cooper is the stable's number-one.
8th	16 8th (16) (33/1 +50%) Lieber Nicc	33 33/1(+50%)	(16) Lieber Nicc 33/1, Once-raced maiden. Brought down in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy, 18/1) on NH debut 17 days ago. Yard saddles a far stronger candidate in Ascending. Not completely neglected in the betting when brought down at the first on debut at Navan.
9th	6 9th (6) (100/1 +33%) Avalo	100 100/1(+33%)	(6) Avalo 100/1, Sageburg gelding. Dam lightly raced on Flat. Probably best watched on debut. Home-bred gelding with a Flat pedigree, dam was of little account, unlikely to feature.
13	13 \|F\| (13) (200/1 +0%) Hawke Eye	200 200/1(+0%)	(13) Hawke Eye 200/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Once-raced maiden. 150/1, last of 16 in novice hurdle at Naas (19f, soft) on NH debut 12 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. A 62-rated Flat maiden; jumped badly and completely tailed off on hurdling debut at Naas..
1	1 \|U\| (1) (66/1 +34%) Aggi	66 66/1(+34%)	(1) Aggi 66/1, Gale Force Ten gelding. Dam, unraced, closely related to smart hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 25f) Noble Prince. I Am Lorenzo is presumably the stable first-string. Dam closely related to 1m7f Listed Flat and smart 2m-2m6f hurdle/chase winner Noble Prince.
10th	18 10th (18) (66/1 -230%) Master Otis	66 66/1(-230%)	(18) Master Otis 66/1, 18/1, twelfth of 14 in bumper at Galway (16.6f, soft) 148 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Placed in two of his seven starts in bumpers, his last two runs have raised doubts.
11th	3 11th (3) (13/2 -44%) Anotherway	6.5 13/2(-44%)	(3) Anotherway 13/2, Fairly useful Flat winner. Ninth of 10 in minor event at Deauville (9.9f, good, 12/1) when last seen 16 months ago. Since gelded/joined top jumps yard for this switch to hurdles and it'll be interesting to see what the market has to say. Half-brother to yard's talented mare Concertista, 1m4f winner in France, off for 16 months.
12th	26 12th (26) (200/1 +0%) Jolie Jewel	200 200/1(+0%)	(26) Jolie Jewel 200/1, Spider Flight filly. Dam, French 2¼m hurdle winner, half-sister to very smart cross-country chaser (stays 31f) Easysland. Decent pedigree, winning dam a half-sister to talented cross-country performer Easysland.
13th	17 13th (17) (40/1 -100%) Lord Vader	40 40/1(-100%)	(17) Lord Vader 40/1, 10/3 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, won 5-runner maiden at Cork (8f, good to firm) in cheekpieces/tongue strap on latest start in September. Cheekpieces replaced with a hood now switched to hurdles. Could have a future in this sphere. Maiden winner over 1m at Cork in September on his 12th start, may need jumping experience.
14th	7 14th (7) (200/1 +0%) Breakintheclouds	200 200/1(+0%)	(7) Breakintheclouds 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. 250/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, tenth of 24 in novice hurdle at Cork (16.8f, heavy) 16 days ago. Placed twice at a modest level on the Flat, has struggled in two runs over hurdles.
15th	20 15th (20) (200/1 +0%) Ragmans Corner	200 200/1(+0%)	(20) Ragmans Corner 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. 250/1, sixteenth of 26 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) 17 days ago. 100-1 on debut at Clonmel when unseated at the first flight, down the field at Navan.
16th	27 16th (27) (200/1 +0%) Missy Mu	200 200/1(+0%)	(27) Missy Mu 200/1, Once-raced maiden. 250/1, eighteenth of 26 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) on NH debut 17 days ago. Massive price when finishing down the field on debut in a 2m maiden at Navan.
17th	5 17th (5) (150/1 +0%) Aurea Fortuna	150 150/1(+0%)	(5) Aurea Fortuna 150/1, €80,000 3-y-o, Mount Nelson gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/high-class chaser Battleoverdoyen and fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Treackle Tart. Watch the betting for clues. Half-brother to the talented Battleoverdoyen who won seven of his first eight races.
18th	22 18th (22) (125/1 -25%) Chatterbox	125 125/1(-25%)	(22) Chatterbox 125/1, Fair maiden on the Flat, making GB/IRE jumps debut. 7/2, seventh of 9 in handicap at Galway (12.2f, good to soft). 63-rated Flat maiden who stays 1m6f, well exposed and unlikely to be good enough here.
19th	23 19th (23) (125/1 +38%) Del Girl	125 125/1(+38%)	(23) Del Girl 125/1, Once-raced maiden. 150/1, eleventh of 19 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) on NH debut 37 days ago. Huge price first time out, needs to jump a lot better to have a chance of making an impact.
20th	12 20th (12) (200/1 +0%) Fascinating Story	200 200/1(+0%)	(12) Fascinating Story 200/1, Thrice-raced maiden under Rules. 200/1 and hooded for 1st time, ninth of 10 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) on bumper debut 23 days ago. Switches from bumpers to hurdles. Soundly beaten in two maiden hurdles and in a bumper, unlikely to make an impact.
21st	10 21st (10) (100/1 +0%) Dream Escape	100 100/1(+0%)	(10) Dream Escape 100/1, Fair Flat winner, making GB/IRE jumps debut. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy, 9/2) 57 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Opposable. Won a five-runner 1m3f Killarney maiden in September on his sixth start, others preferred.
22nd	11 22nd (11) (200/1 +0%) Earlofbrackenstown	200 200/1(+0%)	(11) Earlofbrackenstown 200/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 250/1, brought down in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) 17 days ago. No impact in two outings in November, huge price when brought down at the first at Navan.
23rd	25 23rd (25) (200/1 -100%) Hurry Up Flower	200 200/1(-100%)	(25) Hurry Up Flower 200/1, Sandmason filly. Dam (c105/h107) bumper/2½m-21f hurdle winner. Dam won a bumper and two hurdle races for this stable, likely to need experience.
24th	24 24th (24) (200/1 +0%) Erne Star	200 200/1(+0%)	(24) Erne Star 200/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Fifteenth of 19 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, soft, 150/1) 45 days ago. No sign of winning potential after three starts, jumping was untidy at Down Royal.
25th	21 25th (21) (18/1 +45%) Supreme Authority	18 18/1(+45%)	(21) Supreme Authority 18/1, €130,000 brother to a winner and closely related to another winner, plus he's a half-brother to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser in France Angel's Share (17f-19f winner) and French Warrior (2m jumps winner in Sweden. Wears tongue strap. Needs a second look in the betting. Cost E130,000 as 3yo, good pedigree, in good hands for leading owners, wears tongue-tie.
26th	9 26th (9) (150/1 +0%) Do The Math	150 150/1(+0%)	(9) Do The Math 150/1, €8,000 3-y-o, Court Cave gelding. Dam unraced. Limited appeal on paper. Newcomer whose pedigree that implies that stamina may be his main asset.

LTO Selection:

ASCENDING has the experience and sets a good standard in this. The Awtaad gelding was fifth in last season's Triumph Hurdle and ran a decent race on his return when third to It's For Me in a strong maiden hurdle at Punchestown last month. That form has been boosted by the runner-up Caldwell Potter winning since. Obviously the Willie Mullins-trained Anotherway commands plenty of respect. He was a winner in his native France and is a half-brother to Concertista, a good mare for the same connections. Gordon Elliott is represented by D B Cooper. The Getaway gelding was beaten at a short price on his 'track' debut but looked to run into a smart horse in Jeroboam Machin then and the point-to-point winner may do better now over timber.

NO FLIES ON HIM beat three subsequent winners under Rules when successful on his sole start between the flags in February and has the look of a potentially useful recruit. It will look significant if he's strong in the market. Ascending sets a good standard judged on what he's shown in his four starts over hurdles and is a much-respected main danger. D B Cooper also commands respect, while Sansrisk is not without each-way hope and I Am Lorenzo needs a second look in the betting.

The experience gained last season by ASCENDING could be a crucial factor and the form of his seasonal debut appears very solid

First run for yard after leaving D. E. Fitzgerald. Hooded for 1st time. More needed. Placed a couple of times in lesser maidens for previous yard but unlikely to play a part.

LTO Selection:

KING OF KINGSFIELD comes here off a cracking run to finish second in Grade 1 company and can get his head in front now. The Vadamos gelding was chased down by Farren Glory on the run-in in the Royal Bond at Fairyhouse. He has been described as a bit of a weak finisher, but is a classy horse and his fitness and experience is a big asset. Willie Mullins talks highly of Mirazur West and he looks like an obvious danger. Ferny Hollow's brother was impressive when winning a Naas bumper back in March. James's Gate was formerly with Mullins and is an interesting runner on his first outing for Martin Brassil. The Shantou gelding was third to Facile Vega in the 2022 running of the Cheltenham Champion Bumper and returns from a lengthy absence.

It's tough to ignore the claims of KING OF KINGSFIELD given he was second in a Grade 1 last time. Mirazur West looked very promising when winning his bumper in the spring and is the obvious danger. Old Port may prove best of the remainder.

As a Grade 1 runner-up with plenty of hurdling experience, \bKING OF KINGSFIELD\ should be hard to beat back in a maiden, albeit a hot one

Smart prospect. Made a strong impression in a maiden at Punchestown, Jack Kennedy's choice is significant.
10th	4 10th (4) (66/1 -164%) Eagle Fang	66 66/1(-164%)	(4) Eagle Fang 66/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Thrice-raced maiden. 18½ lengths third of 10 to Nurburgring in Winter Festival Juvenile Hurdle (16/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Well held by Nurburgring on Fairyhouse form, faces a very stiff task in this grade.

First run for yard after leaving Emmanuel Clayeux. One of a 4 new recruits in this for the Willie Mullins yard.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Very hard to make a case for. Remote fifth behind Nurburgring at Fairyhouse, tongue-tie now, stablemate of Mighty Bandit.

LTO Selection:

This could be a very informative race for the juvenile division this season. MIGHTY BANDIT has probably been the most impressive of the three-year-olds seen in Ireland so far and he can take the next step up the ladder. The Order Of St George gelding pulled clear in some style when scoring at Punchestown last month and, unlike some of his rivals, he didn't have experience from the Flat so there looks scope for plenty of improvement. Nurburgring has to carry a penalty after his win over Kala Conti in Grade 3 company at Fairyhouse, but has to be respected. Willie Mullins saddles five and there aren't many clues on jockey bookings with Paul Townend in Kempton. Danny Mullins rides Kargese, who was a Grade 3 winner over hurdles in France and she could be a big player.

It's interesting that Jack Kennedy seemingly prefers MIGHTY BANDIT to his more-established stablemate Kala Conti. That filly can turn around recent Fairyhouse form with Nurburgring on 7 lb better terms and provide the chief threat. It'll also be fascinating to see what the betting makes of the 5 Willie Mullins runners, 4 of whom are starting out for the stable after coming over from France, Kargese possibly best of them.

Willie Mullins has a good team but preference is for MIGHTY BANDIT who looked like potential star material on his debut at Punchestown

Rated 87 on the level; not much over hurdles yet, tailed off on h'cap debut; cheekpieces.

LTO Selection:

Very deep ground in Gowran may not have been ideal for PARK OF KINGS and he may be able to pick up the winning thread again. The Walk In The Park gelding has reportedly has wind issues so it was still a solid effort to finish third last time. He had won twice previously, at Roscommon and Punchestown, and there looks scope for a bit more from the five-year-old. Lazer Wolf has been knocking on the door and Conor Stone-Walsh takes a valuable 5lb off now. He could be a big contender. Riyami comes here in good form from Dundalk and is an interesting runner back over timber.

Several in with a shout but the vote goes to BELGOPRINCE, who did well to get involved given how hard he pulled early when seventh at Cheltenham last month and Tony Martin's 6-y-o can open his account over hurdles back on these shores. Lazer Wolf, Park of Kings, Dollar Nolmit and Woodstream Lad are just a handful of others all capable of getting involved, too.

He disappointed at Cheltenham but SHOWMAN's second to a progressive type at Cork the time before is solid handicap form

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (16/5 +60%) Found A Fifty	3.2 16/5(+60%)	(2) Found A Fifty 16/5, Made winning start over fences at Down Royal last month and improved on that when very good 2½ lengths second of 5 to I Am Maximus in Drinmore Novices' Chase at Fairyhouse (20f, soft, 11/4) 23 days ago. Looks sure to go well. Limitations evident during novice hurdling campaign, already looks a much better chaser.
2	3 2nd (3) (12/1 +52%) My Mate Mozzie	12 12/1(+52%)	(3) My Mate Mozzie 12/1, Made the most of a good opportunity when winning 4-runner novice chase at Cheltenham (15.9f, good) 60 days ago, winning hard held. This is much tougher but he remains open to improvement over fences. Very versatile, has won in five categories, effortless Cheltenham winner in October.
3	4 3rd (4) (8/1 +68%) Sharjah	8 8/1(+68%)	(4) Sharjah 8/1, Very smart hurdler who landed the odds with the minimum of fuss in his first 2 starts over the larger obstacles at Galway and Tipperary. Not in same form in Drinmore Novices' last time but return to shorter trip should suit and better show expected here. Flopped in the Drinmore after two wins, unlikely to be a match for stablemate Facile Vega.
4	1 4th (1) (1/2 -14%) Facile Vega	0.5 1/2(-14%)	(1) Facile Vega 1/2, Very smart dual Grade 1 novice hurdle winner last season who made a pleasing start over the larger obstacles at Navan (17f, heavy) last month, jumping fine and winning with plenty in hand. Open to significant improvement in this sphere. Top-class sort from early in his career, won readily on chasing debut, hard to oppose.

LTO Selection:

Only four go to post but it's a cracking little race and FACILE VEGA can bag another Grade 1 win. The Walk In The Park gelding has had a lot to live up to with his pedigree and has done a sterling job, with four top-level successes already in the bag. The former Champion Bumper winner had a couple of reverses over timber last season, but ended the campaign on a high and was good on his chase debut at Navan last month. He looked like he would improve from that experience as well. Found A Fifty ran really well when second in Grade 1 company in the Drinmore and just looked to be outstayed late on by I Am Maximus. He may be the one to give the selection most to do. Sharjah disappointed at Fairyhouse and needs to improve on that showing. My Mate Mozzie was turned over on his chase debut at Fairyhouse, but was a smooth winner at Cheltenham last time and deserves a shot at this level.

FACILE VEGA looks sure to improve from his chase debut success at Navan last month and ought to take plenty of beating here. Found A Fifty should give him most to think about.

Willie Mullins has won this in six of the past eight years and things should be relatively straightforward for FACILE VEGA

Ninth of 12 in handicap chase (4/1) at Fairyhouse (17f, soft) 24 days ago. Possibilities if able to get back on track. Disappointing favourite in Fairyhouse h'cap but previous chase form gives him every chance.

Off 11 months ahead of this handicap chase debut but runners from this yard are rarely found wanting fitness-wise. Won a Fairyhouse beginners' by a street, jumping better as race went on; goes well fresh.
6th	8 6th (8) (17/2 -55%) Typical Thomas	8.5 17/2(-55%)	(8) Typical Thomas 17/2, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap chase at Cork (17.6f, good to soft, 13/2) 72 days ago, going with enthusiasm. 8 lb rise demands another personal best but he's impossible to rule out in current mood. No fluke about his handicap debut success in Listed contest at Cork; 9lb higher.
7th	2 7th (2) (9/1 -29%) Drumbear	9 9/1(-29%)	(2) Drumbear 9/1, Latest win in chase at Limerick in December. Unseated rider in handicap chase (5/4) at Musselburgh (20.3f, good to soft). Off 10 months and needs a couple of these to falter. Beat mare who is now rated 145 over this trip at Limerick last Christmas; goes well fresh.

Switches from hurdles to chase. Back down in trip and has slipped to an attractive mark. Disappointing this year including when beaten fav for Cork h'cap won by Typical Thomas.
6	6 \|F\| (6) (7/2 +65%) Path D'oroux	3.5 7/2(+65%)	(6) Path D'oroux 7/2, Useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Eighth of 12 in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (17f, soft, 14/1) 24 days ago. Tongue strap back on and sizeable step forward needed. Hasn't made an impact in four chase starts; looked far from a natural on handicap debut.

LTO Selection:

CHAVEZ was impressive when last seen at Fairyhouse in late January and is interesting here on his handicap debut. The Yeats gelding unseated early on his first outing for Willie Mullins before running out a wide-margin winner the next month. He could be nicely treated off a mark of 132. Typical Thomas comes here in fine form after a good win in a valuable contest down in Cork in October. He went up 10lb for that, which makes life a bit tougher in this company. Skippin Court ran well in a beginners chase at Wexford last month, when third to The King Of Prs, and the runner-up Henn See has boosted that form since. He's on a nice weight on his first outing in handicap company over fences.

There's still room for improving in the jumping department but CHAVEZ otherwise looked pretty good when running away with a big-field maiden chase at Fairyhouse and, on a fair mark for this handicap debut, he looks the way to go. Cayd Boy needs to get back on track but will be a threat if able to so do off this reduced mark, while The Greek is capable of a bold show and the hat-trick seeking Typical Thomas has to enter calculations, too.

Wide open and the nod goes to THE GREEK who goes well fresh, is a course winner over hurdles and will appreciate a decent surface

PRENDS GARDE A TOI ran a big race on his 'track' debut when going down by half a length to The Passing Wife at Punchestown last month. The Kapgarde gelding stuck on well again close home then and looked like he would improve from the experience. Willie Mullins introduces point-to-point winner Cantico, a narrow victor at Liscarroll in March. The Diamond Boy gelding commands plenty of respect. Mywayofthinkin is an interesting newcomer for Gavin Cromwell and JP McManus. The Flemensfirth gelding is a half-brother to some smart sorts in Limerick Lace, Ilikedwayurthinkin, Inothewayurthinkin and Spades Are Trumps.

CANTICO has been acquired by top connections on the back of a point win and he's a likely candidate to make a successful start under Rules acknowledging Prends Garde A Toi sets a reasonable standard. Mywayofthinkin is worth considering if strong in the betting.

It could be argued that PRENDS GARDE A TOI is vulnerable after two instances of beaten favouritism but his experience may be decisive
