12	12 (12) (12/1 +14%) Thelonglad	12 12/1(+14%)	(12) Thelonglad 12/1, 11/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, bit below form ninth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Naas (16f, soft) 49 days ago. Makes chase debut. Makes handicap chase debut. Last two runs over hurdles weren't too shoddy and he could make a chaser.
2	2 (2) (33/1 +0%) Deadheat	33 33/1(+0%)	(2) Deadheat 33/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (21.2f, heavy, 40/1) 120 days ago, losing place around 4 out. Four of his six wins were gained in France and his two wins in Ireland were in 2020.
1	4 1st (4) (3/1 +40%) General Clermont	3 3/1(+40%)	(4) General Clermont 3/1, Unreliable type. One win from 34 NH runs. Good second of 15 in novice chase at Tramore (21.8f, good, 9/1) 31 days ago. Player with a repeat. 0-6 as a chaser but was second to a Mullins horse last time in a beginners' event.
2	13 2nd (13) (5/1 +38%) Barbaha Queen	5 5/1(+38%)	(13) Barbaha Queen 5/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 6 in handicap chase at Clonmel (23f, soft, 6/1) 35 days ago. Drop back in trip will suit. Saves her best form for Clonmel where she ran respectably out of the weights last time.
3	9 3rd (9) (8/1 +50%) Druim Samhraidh	8 8/1(+50%)	(9) Druim Samhraidh 8/1, First run since leaving L J Morgan when ninth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (19.8f, heavy, 6/1) 106 days ago. Makes chase debut. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Makes handicap chase debut. Has placed form over hurdles but he's an 11yo making his chase debut.
4	1 4th (1) (33/1 -32%) Brown Monday	33 33/1(-32%)	(1) Brown Monday 33/1, 14/1, pulled up in hunter chase at Punchestown (20.2f, soft) 20 days ago, no response. Makes handicap chase debut. His second in a 2m chase at Roscommon in August 2022 is a standout.
5th	6 5th (6) (16/5 +29%) Mahlers Cove	3.2 16/5(+29%)	(6) Mahlers Cove 16/5, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 10/3, creditable third of 14 in handicap chase at Tipperary (16.5f, good to soft) 14 days ago.

6th	10 6th (10) (9/2 +55%) Lakomet Of Saints	4.5 9/2(+55%)	(10) Lakomet Of Saints 9/2, 20/1, 3 lengths fourth of 13 to Prince of Air in handicap chase at Tramore (15.5f, good to soft) on debut over fences 32 days ago. Maiden on the Flat and over hurdles but he was only 3l away on chase debut at Tramore.
7th	8 7th (8) (18/1 -13%) Added Bonus	18 18/1(-13%)	(8) Added Bonus 18/1, Latest win in chase at Thurles in February. 12/1, twelfth of 15 in handicap chase at Thurles (20.3f, heavy) 68 days ago. Poor latest effort and not sure why, but previous winning form brings him into it.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (15/2 -7%) The Declaimer	7.5 15/2(-7%)	(3) The Declaimer 15/2, Fair winner at 16f over hurdles. Shaped much better than the result after 22 months when seventh of 13 to Prince of Air in handicap chase at Tramore (15.5f, good to soft) 32 days ago, keeping on when bad mistake last. Interesting (potentially well handicapped on hurdles form). Behind some of these at Tramore but only beaten 8l and a late mistake didn't help.
11	11 \|PU\| (11) (28/1 +15%) Grizabella	28 28/1(+15%)	(11) Grizabella 28/1, 150/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 7 months. Makes chase debut. Poor on last hurdle outing. Makes handicap chase debut. 1m2f winner two years ago; not bred for jumping and went 0-7 over hurdles.

General Clermont built on his reappearance fourth in a handicap hurdle at Naas last month when finishing a respectable second over 2m6f in a beginners chase at Tramore. However, this drop in trip might be on the sharp side for the son of Balko and last-time-out winner PRINCE OF AIR may have his measure. A 68-day break seemed to work the oracle for Philip Rothwell's gelding when he won at Tramore and a 7lb rise looks workable. Mahlers Cove and Pana To Milan are also worth a second look.

THE DECLAIMER shaped well back from a lengthy absence when seventh to Prince of Air at Tramore and he's taken to come out on top this time off what remains a handy mark on hurdles form. Prince of Air's jumping should be an asset again, while the drop back in trip will suit Barbaha Queen.

The consistent MAHLERS COVE won't mind what the weather does and he can reverse Tramore placings with Prince Of Air.

17:25 Limerick Handicap Chase 18f PREDICTION SIMULATION

17:55 Limerick Conditions Chase 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
5	5 (5) (3/1 +63%) Mousey Brown	3 3/1(+63%)	(5) Mousey Brown 3/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Four wins from 10 runs last season. 25/1, eighteenth of 24 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Difficult ask. Better hurdler than chaser but it's still early days and the ability is there to progress.
1	4 1st (4) (10/11 +17%) Hurricane Georgie	0.909091 10/11(+17%)	(4) Hurricane Georgie 10/11, Useful chaser. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Pulled up in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (20f, soft, 8/1) 172 days ago, never going well after. Back in calmer waters now and the clear form pick. She was second in this last year and is heavily favoured by these weights.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +56%) Bella Bliss	3.5 7/2(+56%)	(1) Bella Bliss 7/2, Fairly useful chaser. Three wins from 13 runs last season. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap chase (12/1) at Perth (23.8f, soft) 27 days ago. In the mix. This trip looks on the tight side and these terms aren't favourable.
3	2 3rd (2) (6/1 -9%) Bonnie Kellie	6 6/1(-9%)	(2) Bonnie Kellie 6/1, Fairly useful chaser. Course winner. Seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at this course (19f, heavy, 7/2) 34 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not discounted. She's a capable mare on her day and goes well here; tries cheekpieces.
4	3 4th (3) (9/2 -29%) Good As Hell	4.5 9/2(-29%)	(3) Good As Hell 9/2, Fairly useful chaser. Three wins from 13 runs last season. On the retreat when unseated rider last in handicap hurdle at Wexford (20f, heavy, 15/2) 5 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase and can take a step forward. Better chaser than hurdler and could go well if recapturing last year's good form.
5th	6 5th (6) (16/1 +20%) Pebble Bleu	16 16/1(+20%)	(6) Pebble Bleu 16/1, Fair chaser. Pulled up in novice chase (11/1) at Killarney (20.8f, good to soft) 11 days ago, pulled up approaching 2 out. Has to prove that her much-improved second on chase debut at Thurles was no fluke.

Having pulled up on her last two outings, HURRICANE GEORGIE clearly comes with risks attached. However, the seven-year-old is 10lb clear off her nearest rival in the ratings and first time out this year could be the time to catch her. Good As Hell has been somewhat underwhelming on her last few appearances over hurdles and the Philip Fenton-trained mare needs a return to chasing to spark a revival, while Bonnie Kellie is another to bear in mind.

Not the easiest race to assess but Gordon Elliott's HURRICANE GEORGE is taken to bounce back in these calmer waters and edge out Good As Hell who can build on her recent Wexford effort. Bonnie Kellie and Bella Bliss can fight it out for minor honours.

A trappy race. HURRICANE GEORGIE has to steady the ship after two non-completions but she's best in at the weights.

Stable debutant The Friday Man posted several creditable efforts under the tutelage of Gordon Elliott last year and he shouldn't be far away if resuming in the same form. However, MAIDENSTREETPRINCE arrives on the back of a solid second in a beginners chase at Ballinrobe and any improvement for that first start over fences should make the seven-year-old tough to beat. Recent Punchestown third Moonovercloon could also have a say if taking to the larger obstacles.

Lots of potential on show and Charles Byrnes' promising young chaser Maidenstreetprince is fancied to build on his debut Ballinrobe second and open his account in this sphere. Gordon Elliott's Fortunedefortunata also has better days ahead of him and is feared most with newcomers Moonovercloon, Cuta des As and Mayor's Walk also in the picture in a fascinating contest.

The benefit of chasing experience bodes well for MAIDENSTREETPRINCE who chased home a talented horse at Ballinrobe.

13	13 (13) (50/1 +0%) Katzoff	50 50/1(+0%)	(13) Katzoff 50/1, Fourteenth of 21 in handicap at Leopardstown (12f, good, 100/1) 6 days ago. Switches from Flat to chase. Longstanding maiden; pulled up over fences before finishing 14th back on Flat last week.

Switches from hurdles to chase. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces back on. He's yet to convince over fences and this lower mark is for a reason.

3	2 3rd (2) (9/2 +31%) Tullyhogue Fort	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(2) Tullyhogue Fort 9/2, 17¼ lengths fourth of 5 to Favori De Champdou in Gr 3 chase at this course (24.6f, heavy, 66/1) 34 days ago, flattered by proximity. Looks competitive on form if that is taken at face value. Doesn't score highly on consistency and he's high enough in the weights.
4	16 4th (16) (12/1 +25%) Fr Gilligansvoyge	12 12/1(+25%)	(16) Fr Gilligansvoyge 12/1, One win from 50 NH runs. 20/1, excellent fifth of 10 in hunter chase at Punchestown (20.2f, soft) 20 days ago. Hunter chase winner; finished second off a higher mark last summer.

7th	19 7th (19) (18/1 +10%) Kate Ill Know	18 18/1(+10%)	(19) Kate Ill Know 18/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. 14½ lengths sixth of 13 to Junot in handicap hurdle at Wexford (17.2f, heavy, 18/1) 5 days ago. Makes chase debut. RESERVE. Reserve; winning hurdler but an 11yo now so left it late to go over fences.

10th	8 10th (8) (18/1 +0%) Out Of The Park	18 18/1(+0%)	(8) Out Of The Park 18/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 11 in handicap chase (16/1) at Killarney (20.4f, good to soft) on debut over fences 10 days ago.

1	1 \|PU\| (1) (4/1 -33%) Gold Haven	4 4/1(-33%)	(1) Gold Haven 4/1, 11/2, surpassed hurdles form when second of 14 in handicap chase at Tramore (21.8f, good) on debut over fences 31 days ago.

KILMACURKIN was going well until a mistake two out saw him fade to third on his chasing debut at Downpatrick last month and he's likely to have benefitted from the experience. A step forward could be enough to see the son of Flemensfirth gain a first career success. Gold Haven, a close second on her chasing bow at Tramore, also rates a key player on the back of that promising run. The class-dropping Tullyhogue Fort has more experience over fences and is not ruled out at this level.

GOLD HAVEN left her hurdles form behind at the first attempt over fences when second at Tramore a month ago and on that evidence, this mark could well be within range. Junot was better than ever over hurdles on Saturday so has to be feared, along with KIlmacurkin.

It was a positive start over fences for GOLD HAVEN when second at Tramore and she's taken to go one better.

Info	Form	Odds
8	8 (8) (11/2 -83%) Sam Magee	5.5 11/2(-83%)	(8) Sam Magee 11/2, Jet Away gelding who found some improvement when winning 4-runner novice hurdle at Wexford (24f, good to soft) 28 days ago, by 7 lengths from Givehimthehonour, pushed out. Boasts a win in points previously and no surprise to see him make his mark over larger obstacles. Wexford novice hurdle winner; could well play a major role on chasing debut.
4	4 (4) (11/1 -38%) Folcano	11 11/1(-38%)	(4) Folcano 11/1, Useful handicap hurdler who displayed definite promise initially over fences during 2022. Possibly needed the run after 16 months off when pulled up in handicap chase at Navan (23.4f, heavy) 61 days ago, tailing off early in straight. This should reveal more. Moderate comeback run in March; chance on past form but hard to be confident in now.
10	10 (10) (16/1 -14%) West Is Awake	16 16/1(-14%)	(10) West Is Awake 16/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Fairyhouse in October. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Leopardstown (23.4f, heavy) 147 days ago. Makes chase debut. 118-rated hurdler goes well fresh but likely to be all the better for this chase debut.
5	5 (5) (16/1 +0%) Givehimthehonour	16 16/1(+0%)	(5) Givehimthehonour 16/1, Fair hurdler. 6/4, 7 lengths second of 4 to Sam Magee in novice hurdle at Wexford (24f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Successful only start in points and he could have more to offer now attentions switch to larger obstacles. Placed form hurdling; points' winner the type to make a better chaser.
1	1 (1) (17/2 +66%) All In Montmartre	8.5 17/2(+66%)	(1) All In Montmartre 17/2, Pulled up sole start in points but made perfect start over hurdles when winning a Downpatrick maiden (18.7f) last June. Absent since finishing seventh of 8 in novice hurdle at Galway (20.7f, good to soft) in August and market best guide now chasing after 9 months off. Chasing debut after 9 months absence; seemingly the stable second-choice so may need this.
1	7 1st (7) (10/11 +86%) Reverend Hubert	0.909091 10/11(+86%)	(7) Reverend Hubert 10/11, Fairly useful hurdler who opened his account in that sphere at Downpatrick (21.7f) last summer. Fit from a spin on the Flat at Navan (13f) last month and the market should guide now his attentions switch to chasing. 134-rated hurdler; interesting to see how Flat-bred 6yo takes to fences here.
2	9 2nd (9) (15/2 -15%) Stuzzikini	7.5 15/2(-15%)	(9) Stuzzikini 15/2, Useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Clonmel in November. 100/1, bit below form eleventh of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.5f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Makes chase debut. 128-rated hurdler disappointing of late but still respected on chase debut.
3	11 3rd (11) (15/8 +16%) What Path	1.875 15/8(+16%)	(11) What Path 15/8, Useful hurdler. 33/1, below form sixteenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.5f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Represents top yard and he could yet get back on track now switched to larger obstacles. Among the best of these hurdling; major player if jumping holds up on chase debut.
4	2 4th (2) (14/1 +13%) Caesar Rock	14 14/1(+13%)	(2) Caesar Rock 14/1, Fairly useful chaser. 20/1, fifth of 7 in novice chase at Tipperary (23.4f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Claims on pick of form for all he's had plenty of chances already. Plenty of chasing experience; better for recent comeback run and place claims.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 +40%) Chiefs Kingdom	12 12/1(+40%)	(3) Chiefs Kingdom 12/1, Fair hurdler. 9/2, showed plenty to work on when fourth of 10 in novice chase at Wexford (16f, good to soft) on debut over fences 28 days ago, inadequate test. Step back up in trip should help and likely he can do better again. Respectable chasing debut at Wexford but gave the impression he'll need more experience.
6th	6 6th (6) (100/1 +33%) Portnacoo	100 100/1(+33%)	(6) Portnacoo 100/1, Modest hurdler. 12/1, below form ninth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (19.8f, soft) 39 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time but he's hard to warm to on chase debut. Moderate maiden hurdler, very hard to see him featuring on chase debut.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

WHAT PATH was quite highly tried over hurdles and starts out over fences at a realistic level for one of his potential. A large-framed son of Coastal Path, the selection has the stamp of a chaser and could well flourish over the larger obstacles at the first time of asking. Chiefs Kingdom posted a respectable effort on his chasing bow at Wexford last month and can go close with another step forward, while Sam Magee and Reverend Hubert are a couple of others to note.

WHAT PATH hasn't been at his very best over hurdles in recent months but the pick of his form in that sphere entitles him to plenty of respect now chasing and he could just be worth siding with to get back on track for his leading yard. Sam Magee, following a career best over hurdles, is also respected, with the Gordon Elliott pair Stuzzikini and Folcano others to note.

Quite competitive with the less exposed SAM MAGEE taken to make a winning chase debut

KILMURRY JJ got off the mark on just his second start for these connections over 2m6f at Tramore last month and the seven-year-old merits the utmost respect, despite an 8lb rise in the ratings for that success. Lilian Bland was well held when third at Killarney recently but she should not be discounted, while Glenmalure Lodge and Cosmic Blizzard are others to note.

KILMURRY JJ Landed a few bets when making his second chase start a winning one at Tramore a month ago under this conditional rider and the follow up may well be forthcoming. Lilian Bland and Glenmalure Lodge are a couple of potential threats.

KILMURRY JJ (nap) is one of the few progressive types in the field and can follow up a recent Tramore win on similar ground

Impressive on chasing debut and has plenty of potential in this sphere, so looks the one to beat. Tramore winner for whom ground remains in his favour but stamina concerns on handicap bow.

INVICTUS MACHIN put in a career best over fences when second over an extended 2m5f at Tramore a month ago and Gavin Cromwell's gelding could go one better with a reproduction of that effort here. That said, Bocelli's Voice is an obvious threat to the selection following his Wexford victory four weeks ago and Surf Club is another with valid form claims.

SURF CLUB jumped well when making a winning start to chasing at Tramore in April and probably found the race coming too soon over hurdles next time, so he's a confident choice to double his tally in this sphere at the possible expense of Bocelli's Voice, who found plenty to score at Wexford last time. Invictus Machine is another one to consider.

This step up in trip could bring about improvement in the 6yo INVICTUS MACHIN who was doing his best work at the finish at Tramore

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.
