1	1 1st (1) (3/1 -33%) Falco Blitz		3 3/1(-33%)																															(1) Falco Blitz 3/1, Ran best race for current yard when winning 13-runner handicap chase at Thurles (21.6f, heavy, 16/1) 49 days ago by 7 lengths from R'evelyn Pleasure, albeit suited by way race developed. Respected in his current form. Decisive winner from R'Evelyn Pleasure at Thurles last time; 7lb rise gives him a chance.
2	3 2nd (3) (17/2 -21%) Sir Bob		8.5 17/2(-21%)																															(3) Sir Bob 17/2, Followed good run with a below-par one when sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Fairyhouse (24f, heavy) 43 days ago. Could fare better back over fences. No real impression off his lower hurdles mark last twice; wants further but not dismissed.
3	4 3rd (4) (6/1 +33%) R'evelyn Pleasure		6 6/1(+33%)																															(4) R'evelyn Pleasure 6/1, Recorded back-to-back wins over C&D and Cork this winter. However, run of good form halted when eighth of 10 in handicap chase at Gowran (20f, heavy, 18/1) 22 days ago. Well held by Falco Blitz at Thurles and well beaten at Gowran last time; still respected.
4	5 4th (5) (5/2 +33%) Young Dev		2.5 5/2(+33%)																															(5) Young Dev 5/2, Course winner. In first-time tongue strap, in touch when unseated rider in handicap chase at Leopardstown (28.3f, soft, 7/1) a week ago. Major player back down in trip. Four wins at this venue over hurdles and fences and has a leading chance here.
5th	2 5th (2) (11/2 -38%) Royal Thief		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(2) Royal Thief 11/2, Has been struggling for form for current yard this season, pulled up in Thyestes Handicap Chase (40/1) at Gowran (25f, heavy) 45 days ago. However, he's not discounted dropped in grade. Out of form this season in big handicap chases and others preferred.
6th	6 6th (6) (12/1 -220%) Nobody Home		12 12/1(-220%)																															(6) Nobody Home 12/1, After 4 months off, took advantage of reduced mark when winning 8-runner handicap chase (22/1) at Fairyhouse (24.5f, soft) in October. Could go well again with cheekpieces reapplied on return from another 5-month absence. Up 7lb for latest win but clearly has a leading chance with the stable in good form.
7	7 |PU| (7) (15/2 +46%) It Could Be You		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(7) It Could Be You 15/2, In first-time blinkers, fared little better than previously this season when seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (24f, soft, 22/1) 57 days ago. Others more persuasive back over fences. Three moderate runs over hurdles this season; hard to fancy but has a chance at his best.
8	8 |PU| (8) (25/1 -25%) Presenting Point		25 25/1(-25%)																															(8) Presenting Point 25/1, After 9 months off, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16f, heavy, 33/1) 24 days ago, struggling badly early final circuit. Revival needed as he goes back up in trip returned to chasing. Struggling for form this season, most recently pulled up in a Clonmel handicap hurdle.

ROYAL THIEF won four times for Henry de Bromhead and only weakened before the last when sixth in the Kim Muir at Cheltenham 12 months ago. The Fame And Glory gelding hasn't made much impact in valuable handicaps this season but should appreciate this drop in class. Falco Blitz beat R'evelyn Pleasure, who won a veteran's race here at Christmas, by seven lengths over this trip at Thurles while Young Dev is another new to this category to consider. The four-time course winner rallied strongly to win at Navan on his last completed start. Sir Bob enjoyed his finest hour when landing the Cork Grand National in November and now reverts back to fences.

With cheekpieces reapplied, YOUNG DEV took advantage of his falling mark when scoring at Navan in February and he's worth another chance having still been in touch when unseating at Leopardstown a week ago. He can get the better of Falco Blitz, who gained a first success for his current trainer last time, while Royal Thief is interesting down in grade.

Choice is NOBODY HOME (nap) who accounted for dual subsequent winner when last seen in October; is ground versatile and runs well fresh

DUNDANIEL won twice in point-to-points before easily landing a hunter chase at Cork last Easter. The Getaway gelding has been placed in a couple of handicaps this term and lost any chance with a bad mistake at the last at Clonmel last month. Chosen Diamond made a winning start over fences in a 2m4f Naas handicap in November and reverted to hurdles earlier this year holding every chance when falling at the last in the Navan handicap won by Butty O Brien before filling the runner-up spot behind the progressive Aodhan May at the same venue last weekend. Macdermott won a maiden hurdle at Tramore last spring but hasn't impressed with his jumping since switched to fences this term including when runner-up to Farmers Lodge at Fairyhouse last time.

MACDERMOTT found improvement last time and, with a slightly better round of jumping, he can defy a mark of 119 on his handicap chase debut. The Gradual Slope is another one that may have been let in lightly and Dundaniel merits respect.

The selection is top-weight MACDERMOTT although his jumping does need to improve from his most recent effort ast Fairyhouse

1	7 1st (7) (2/1 -70%) Sommesky		2 2/1(-70%)																															(7) Sommesky 2/1, €9,000 3-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Half-brother to fair 2½m/3m chaser Regarde. Dam, ran once over hurdles in France, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Sabre Hongrois. Notable newcomer, worth taking a chance on. Well-bred and quite stoutly-bred newcomer; no surprise should he be good enough on debut.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/2 -29%) A Tipp For Gold		4.5 9/2(-29%)																															(2) A Tipp For Gold 9/2, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 8 in bumper at Punchestown (15.9f, heavy, 20/1) 21 days ago. Solid claims in this less-competitive event. Settled better when a close fourth in a Punchestown bumper last month; capable of better.
3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 -60%) Jackmoon		4 4/1(-60%)																															(1) Jackmoon 4/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 5 in bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, soft, 25/1) 57 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Probably doesn't need to improve to be in the mix here although a tongue-tie is tried.
4	8 4th (8) (6/1 +40%) Broderick		6 6/1(+40%)																															(8) Broderick 6/1, €16,000 3-y-o, Affinisea gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including bumper winner/useful hurdler Jimmy Breekie, stayed 3m, and fairly useful hurdler Highland Penny, stays 3m. Wears tongue strap. Likely to want further. Plenty of good winners in his pedigree; tongue-tied for his debut and worth a market check.
5th	9 5th (9) (28/1 +44%) Alright George		28 28/1(+44%)																															(9) Alright George 28/1, €2,000 3-y-o, Idaho gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdle winner/smart chaser Ain't That A Shame and bumper winner Catching Shadows, stayed 2½m. Stoutly bred newcomer, half-brother to Thyestes winner Ain't That A Shame among others.
6th	6 6th (6) (50/1 -52%) Drumgill		50 50/1(-52%)																															(6) Drumgill 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 250/1, last of 7 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, soft) on hurdles bow 7 days ago. Switches from hurdles to bumpers. Soundly beaten in two bumpers and a maiden hurdle; others more likely.
7th	3 7th (3) (16/5 +71%) Our Soldier		3.2 16/5(+71%)																															(3) Our Soldier 16/5, Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 12 in bumper (33/1) at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 75 days ago. Could do better. Could be plenty of improvement to come from him although the ground could be an issue.
8th	4 8th (4) (100/1 +0%) Bruno From Mars		100 100/1(+0%)																															(4) Bruno From Mars 100/1, Once-raced maiden. 150/1 and hooded, eighth of 13 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) on NH debut 15 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Hard to make a case for. Way too keen in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle on debut; may have knocked off some rough edges.

OUR SOLDIER made a promising debut when fifth to Goldinthemountains at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting and the third, Cantico, gave the form a boost by winning easily at Navan last month. The Edward O'Grady-trained gelding should benefit from that experience and on a line through Sky Lord has the beating of Jackmoon. The latter has been placed on both starts including when third behind the well-regarded Romeo Coolio at Fairyhouse. A Tipp For Gold appears to be progressing steadily with each run while Sommesky is a newcomer to note. The son of Soldier Of Fortune is a half-brother to a winner and hails from the family of The New One.

The bar isn't set all that high by those with form and SOMMESKY makes appeal on pedigree/connections, so he's worth chancing to make a winning start. A Tipp For Gold is an obvious player and Our Soldier is likely to improve from his debut.

It would be no surprse if the well-bred SOMMESKY was good enough to score on debut ahead of Our Soldier

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.
