13:40 Listowel Maiden 8f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (9/4 +44%) Look At The Stars	2.25 9/4(+44%)	(2) Look At The Stars 9/4, Better for run when eighth of 14 in maiden (5/1) at Down Royal (7f, good) on debut 3 months ago, off the bridle before most. Bound to improve on that initial effort. 8th on debut but only beaten 4l and was a bit green; should improve up in trip.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/4 +7%) Cardinal Zin	1.75 7/4(+7%)	(1) Cardinal Zin 7/4, Confirmed the improvement shown second time up when fifth of 23 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 3/1) 32 days ago. Significantly up in trip and fancied to be in the shake-up. Left debut behind when 2nd at Sligo and only beaten 5l since; steps up in trip.
3	10 3rd (10) (17/2 +29%) Kilworth Kate	8.5 17/2(+29%)	(10) Kilworth Kate 17/2, Ran to a similar level as on debut when fourth of 5 in maiden at Galway (7.1f, good to soft, 50/1) 9 days ago. Minor promise in two starts so far and 1m could suit but might be one for handicaps.
4	9 4th (9) (20/1 -25%) Sinbad My Dad	20 20/1(-25%)	(9) Sinbad My Dad 20/1, 33/1, offered something to work on when eighth of 13 in maiden at Tipperary (7.5f, good to soft) on debut 18 days ago, not unduly punished. Should progress. Well held 8th on debut; not sure to appreciate slower ground; fair bit to find.
5th	5 5th (5) (3/1 -50%) Harry The Rogue	3 3/1(-50%)	(5) Harry The Rogue 3/1, Had experience on his side and ran creditably when third of 11 in maiden (13/2) at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft) 76 days ago. Obvious claims with that form working out very well (first and second won since). Improved with each run and latest form behind Warnie looks rock solid; the one to beat.
6th	3 6th (3) (18/1 -80%) Sportingsilvermine	18 18/1(-80%)	(3) Sportingsilvermine 18/1, Showed more than first time up when fourth of 10 in maiden (66/1) at Leopardstown (7f, good) 4 weeks ago. Left debut behind with Leopardstown 4th latest; form hasn't worked out but can go well.
7th	8 7th (8) (33/1 +0%) You Done Well	33 33/1(+0%)	(8) You Done Well 33/1, Foaled March 15. Decorated Knight gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 1½m Snookered. Dam 8.3f winner. Son of Decorated Knight; half-brother to 2 winners; dam 1m winner; already gelded.
8th	6 8th (6) (100/1 +0%) I've Been Dreaming	100 100/1(+0%)	(6) I've Been Dreaming 100/1, Well held in pair of maidens earlier in the month. Barely beaten a rival in two runs so far and qualifies for handicaps after this.
9th	4 9th (4) (50/1 -52%) Phoenix Princess	50 50/1(-52%)	(4) Phoenix Princess 50/1, Foaled March 31. €6,000 yearling, Phoenix of Spain filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 5f-7f winners Aspen Belle and Pretty Smart. Dam of little account. Phoenix Of Spain filly; 6,000eur yearling; half-sister to 4 winners; tough for a newcomer.
10th	7 10th (7) (150/1 -50%) Magic Defense	150 150/1(-50%)	(7) Magic Defense 150/1, 150/1, offered little when last of 13 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good) on debut just over 5 weeks ago. Last of 13 when 150-1 for his debut; hard to recommend.

LTO Selection:

This looks the sort of trip that the 80-rated CARDINAL ZIN will appreciate. He was an eyecatcher on debut at Leopardstown when running on well for seventh over an extended 7f. Since then he has been a beaten favourite in Sligo (second) and the Curragh (fifth) over shorter trips, but is taken to get off the mark up in distance. Cut in the ground shouldn't hold any fears for Muhaarar colt Look At The Stars, who was eighth on debut on better ground at Down Royal. Harry The Rogue has been placed on his last couple of outings and the form of his third at Bellewstown has been well franked, although he may not want the ground to be too deep. Kilworth Kate wasn't outclassed in maidens won by classy sorts and isn't out of it.

This can go to HARRY THE ROGUE, who had a pair of subsequent winners ahead of him at Bellewstown back in July and this looks a good opportunity for Andrew Slattery's charge to open his account. The main danger may emerge from Look At The Stars, who is bound to improve on his debut at Down Royal 3 months ago, with Cardinal Zin rounding off the shortlist.

The form of HARRY THE ROGUE(nap)'s latest effort looks rock solid and he looks capable of scoring at this level

13:40 Listowel Maiden 8f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:15 Listowel Handicap 8f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	13 1st (13) (9/1 +10%) Drop The Dip	9 9/1(+10%)	(13) Drop The Dip 9/1, C&D winner. Winner here in June. 6/1, respectable fourth of 15 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good) 28 days ago. One to consider. C&D winner; consistent in defeat since; drop in weights can help but may not want rain.
2	12 2nd (12) (9/2 +25%) Wrist Art	4.5 9/2(+25%)	(12) Wrist Art 9/2, 5/2, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Punchestown (9f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Stable in good form. On the upgrade recently and should go well again. Back to best with 4l win latest and 9lb rise fine but may not appreciate conditions.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/1 -10%) Coolree	11 11/1(-10%)	(2) Coolree 11/1, 8/1, career best when winning 10-runner maiden at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 65 days ago. Worthy of respect. 0-9; first past the post latest before a demotion; 5lb rise justified; can go well again.
4	7 4th (7) (14/1 -180%) Indigo Five	14 14/1(-180%)	(7) Indigo Five 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Roscommon (11.6f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. 0-4; failed to improve for further on h'cap bow; respected with cheekpieces on back at 1m.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +0%) Starting Monday	5.5 11/2(+0%)	(5) Starting Monday 11/2, Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fourth of 18 in handicap at Galway (8.6f, soft, 9/2) 51 days ago, never nearer. Has to be taken seriously. Handles testing ground well; good 4th at Galway; down 1lb and one should fall his way.
6th	14 6th (14) (33/1 +59%) Fleadhfest	33 33/1(+59%)	(14) Fleadhfest 33/1, 40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, thirteenth of 18 in handicap at Navan (10f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Six-race maiden and poor form in two handicap starts; wears first-time tongue-tie.
7th	10 7th (10) (8/1 -33%) Breezy Zoff	8 8/1(-33%)	(10) Breezy Zoff 8/1, 13/2, creditable second of 14 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft) 76 days ago, running on. Likely to be on the premises. Hit the crossbar in 3 of last 4 starts and the handicapper has given her a big chance.
8th	17 8th (17) (40/1 +60%) Almost An Angel	40 40/1(+60%)	(17) Almost An Angel 40/1, Unreliable sort. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap (125/1) at this course (7.1f, soft) 2 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. RESERVE. Really struggled for form since leaving David Evans in 2021 but better on Tuesday; reserve.
9th	6 9th (6) (6/1 +40%) Run The Jewels	6 6/1(+40%)	(6) Run The Jewels 6/1, C&D winner. Respectable fifth of 15 in handicap (10/1) at Killarney (8.1f, good) 28 days ago. Enters calculations. Won this in 2022; better than bare result of late; better draw this year; on winning mark.
10th	16 10th (16) (14/1 +58%) Drish Melody	14 14/1(+58%)	(16) Drish Melody 14/1, Bit below form sixth of 15 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.8f, good, 18/1) 23 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others make more appeal. Won on soft towards end of last season; low-key form of late but soft ground may help.
11th	9 11th (9) (50/1 -100%) Noble Crusade	50 50/1(-100%)	(9) Noble Crusade 50/1, Fifteenth of 18 in handicap at Galway (8.6f, soft, 50/1) 51 days ago. Others are more persuasive. Struggled for form in both disciplines this year and probably needs bit further than this.
12th	15 12th (15) (22/1 -57%) Medici Pass	22 22/1(-57%)	(15) Medici Pass 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable third of 12 in handicap (11/2) at Clonmel (9.6f, good) 14 days ago. Can't be ruled out. Built on her h'cap debut when 3rd latest; needs more in this deeper event and poorly drawn.
13th	3 13th (3) (8/1 +43%) Kodiac Prince	8 8/1(+43%)	(3) Kodiac Prince 8/1, Below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Punchestown (8f, good to soft, 14/1) 8 days ago, not clear run. Hard to make a strong case for. Won twice earlier in summer and back towards his last winning mark; handles ground.
14th	1 14th (1) (9/1 -50%) Rock Etoile	9 9/1(-50%)	(1) Rock Etoile 9/1, 13/2, creditable second of 16 in handicap at Gowran (8f, good) 15 days ago. Should be on the premises. Only found one too good last 2 runs; nudged up 1lb but in the form of his life.
15th	19 15th (19) (40/1 +39%) Talking Tough	40 40/1(+39%)	(19) Talking Tough 40/1, Two wins from 62 Flat runs. Forty five runs since last win in 2020. Eighth of 11 in handicap (28/1) at this course (7.1f, soft) 2 days ago. RESERVE. Generally struggled this term and probably flattered by distant third latest; reserve.

LTO Selection:

BREEZY ZOFF looks to have solid claims in this handicap. She has finished runner-up in two of her last three races, including when making up plenty of ground when last seen at Bellewstown in July. Crucially, she has a testing-ground victory from the Curragh last year in the book. Tim Doyle's horses are in excellent form and his Wrist Art is a contender. He won at Punchestown last week by a very healthy four lengths, which the handicapper certainly noticed. Stall 19 would be a concern, though. Starting Monday is another who has to defy a wide draw, but brother and sister Billy Lee and Gillian Scott combined for a winner in Listowel on Tuesday and this six-year-old gelding should go well for them. Rock Etoile has to give weight away but is capable of a big run.

WRIST ART was strong in the betting and better than ever when scoring readily at Punchestown recently and, with the scope for better still, he's preferred to Breezy Zoff, who ran with credit when last seen 76 days ago. Rock Etoile is another one to consider in an open race.

Last year's winner, RUN THE JEWELS, looks capable of going well again off last year's winning mark having shaped well last time

14:15 Listowel Handicap 8f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:50 Listowel Maiden 8f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	14 1st (14) (9/2 +18%) Water Nymph	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(14) Water Nymph 9/2, Fairly useful filly. Remains a maiden after 9 Flat runs. 10/3, good second of 14 in maiden at Naas (8f, soft) 45 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Is 0-9; back to her best when 2nd in a Naas maiden; that form yet to work out.
2	13 2nd (13) (11/2 -22%) Randall Poets Lass	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(13) Randall Poets Lass 11/2, Twice-raced filly. Good third of 13 in maiden (28/1) at Navan (8f, good to soft) 19 days ago, best work finish. In the picture. Was 3rd when a place behind Finsceal Go Deo last time; more required and may not want soft.
3	10 3rd (10) (13/2 +46%) Toll Stone	6.5 13/2(+46%)	(10) Toll Stone 13/2, Thrice-raced gelding. Good fifth of 9 in maiden at Tipperary (7.4f, soft, 10/3) 41 days ago. Tongue strap back on and not discounted. Didn't build on promise shown in maidens early in year when 5th latest; may need further.
4	2 4th (2) (17/2 +15%) Rick Dalton	8.5 17/2(+15%)	(2) Rick Dalton 17/2, Fairly useful gelding. Good third of 18 in handicap at Fairyhouse (10f, good, 12/1). Off 112 days. First run for yard after leaving G. M. Lyons. Tongue strap on 1st time. Merits consideration. 0-12 but went very close for Ger Lyons; should be in mix if fully tuned up; off 112 days.
5th	8 5th (8) (6/1 +0%) Simpson's Paradox	6 6/1(+0%)	(8) Simpson's Paradox 6/1, Fairly useful gelding. Remains a maiden after 7 Flat runs. 7/4, below form seventh of 15 in maiden at Bellewstown (7.8f, good) 23 days ago. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Beaten 10l latest but reportedly didn't handle track; showed plenty of ability previously.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 +0%) Sevensees	33 33/1(+0%)	(7) Sevensees 33/1, Twice-raced gelding. Sixth of 8 in maiden at Leopardstown (9f, good, 66/1) 35 days ago. Very hard to make a case for. Sixth in eight runner maidens on both runs so far; shown ability but has more to come here.
7th	11 7th (11) (9/1 +44%) Fashion Flair	9 9/1(+44%)	(11) Fashion Flair 9/1, Twice-raced filly. Good second of 11 in maiden (20/1) at Killarney (8.1f, soft). Off 11 months but remains open to improvement. Left debut behind with narrow defeat on most recent start but likely to need this.
8th	6 8th (6) (7/2 +22%) Sectarius	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(6) Sectarius 7/2, Twice-raced gelding. 11/4, good second of 10 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good) 15 days ago, clear of rest. Can give a good account. Narrowly denied on debut but well held by rival rated 72 since.
9th	9 9th (9) (6/1 +40%) Time Tells All	6 6/1(+40%)	(9) Time Tells All 6/1, Fairly useful gelding. 13/2 and blinkered for 1st time, respectable third of 10 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good) 15 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs considering. Promise in maidens on first 2 runs in 2022 but hasn't replicated that this term.
10th	1 10th (1) (150/1 +25%) Carrickfinn	150 150/1(+25%)	(1) Carrickfinn 150/1, Lightly-raced gelding on Flat. Tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving P. J. Rothwell when sixth of 10 in maiden (100/1) at Laytown (7.2f) 9 days ago. More is needed. Has shown very little and has a mountain to climb on these terms.
11th	5 11th (5) (50/1 +0%) Limestone Red	50 50/1(+0%)	(5) Limestone Red 50/1, Twice-raced gelding. Seventh of 11 in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, good, 50/1) 28 days ago, not knocked about. Plenty to find on form. Has shown ability in two runs so far but this looks like a tough ask; one for h'caps.

LTO Selection:

Perhaps this can be the day WATER NYMPH makes the breakthrough. Jack Cleary claims 7lb, so the Saxon Warrior filly receives weight from all of her rivals. She has posted a couple of runner-up finishes on rain-softened ground, including at Naas in August. A whole host of horses have chances in this contest, including Sectarius. He was a close third on his first start in Galway and caught a tartar when beaten into second at Gowran Park. Randall Poets Lass didn't run badly at all in sixth at Leopardstown and upped her game when third in Navan. She is going the right way. Time Tells All was three lengths behind Sectarius in third at Gowran Park and is proven over further if this becomes a battle, while Helter Skelter showed promise in second on debut at Tipperary, but didn't build upon that in Killarney. He is well worth another chance, though.

Lots with chances but WATER NYMPH just holds the edge on form and gets the vote from Navan-third Randall Poets Lass who rates a big threat. Sectarius and Time Tells All both bring solid credentials to the table too and need factoring into this open-looking maiden.

SIMPSON'S PARADOX gets the tentative vote. He didn't handle Bellewstown last time but was knocking on the door previously

14:50 Listowel Maiden 8f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:25 Listowel Handicap 9f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	10 1st (10) (4/1 +27%) Simply Sideways	4 4/1(+27%)	(10) Simply Sideways 4/1, 3 wins from 9 runs this year, posting a career best in 12-runner handicap at Clonmel (9.6f, good) 14 days ago. Yard in good form so this smooth-travelling sort is a player once more. Good form this term and made it 3 wins for the season latest; up 7lb but likeable profile.
2	3 2nd (3) (8/1 +56%) Independent Expert	8 8/1(+56%)	(3) Independent Expert 8/1, Latest win at Limerick in June. Eighth of 13 in handicap at Punchestown (9f, good to soft, 14/1) 8 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs considering. Running well in defeat since win earlier in season; capable of getting competitive.
3	7 3rd (7) (5/1 +58%) Eloquent Arthur	5 5/1(+58%)	(7) Eloquent Arthur 5/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 14/1, creditable 2½ lengths third of 12 to Simply Sideways in handicap at Clonmel (9.6f, good) 14 days ago. Considered. Running well in defeat since 2nd in a claimer; ideal trip/conditions here; can go well.
4	5 4th (5) (5/1 +23%) Sea Gardens	5 5/1(+23%)	(5) Sea Gardens 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 7/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good fourth of 6 in handicap at Galway (8.6f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Should go well again. Promise in each of his 4 runs incl' h'cap debut latest and useful apprentice claims 7lb.
5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 +17%) Bridge Of Dawn	10 10/1(+17%)	(6) Bridge Of Dawn 10/1, 15/2, ninth of 14 in handicap at Roscommon (10f, good to soft) 79 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not discounted if back on his A-game. Won on h'cap debut after 12 month break last year; bit to prove after 2 poor runs in 2023.
6th	9 6th (9) (10/1 +29%) Yokkell	10 10/1(+29%)	(9) Yokkell 10/1, Latest win at Ballinrobe in July. Below form fifth of 12 to Simply Sideways in handicap (13/2) at Clonmel (9.6f, good) 14 days ago, never nearer. Blinkers on 1st time. Winner at Ballinrobe in July; things haven't panned out twice since but blinkers may help.
7th	13 7th (13) (5/1 +50%) Duke Of Leggagh	5 5/1(+50%)	(13) Duke Of Leggagh 5/1, Arrives below par, only third of 5 in minor event at Galway (8.6f, good to soft, 3/1) 9 days ago. Others more persuasive. Both wins on heavy and running well in defeat this term; back towards good mark.
8th	11 8th (11) (50/1 +50%) Ayrton	50 50/1(+50%)	(11) Ayrton 50/1, Eleventh of 12 to Simply Sideways in handicap at Clonmel (9.6f, good, 150/1) 14 days ago. Hooded for 1st time with work to do. Won on heavy ground in France; hard to fancy on what he's shown for this yard; wears hood.
9th	4 9th (4) (10/1 +50%) Comfort Line	10 10/1(+50%)	(4) Comfort Line 10/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/3, below form sixth of 11 in claimer at Roscommon (10.3f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Well held in a Roscommon claimer latest and looks up against it for now.
10th	12 10th (12) (14/1 -100%) Dazzling Spirit	14 14/1(-100%)	(12) Dazzling Spirit 14/1, Won 13-runner handicap at Clonmel (9.6f, good, 13/2) 14 days ago. Back up 8 lb but still ought to be in the shake-up. A 3-time winner last term and got her head back in front latest; 8lb rise demands more.
11th	15 11th (15) (25/1 +62%) Anycity	25 25/1(+62%)	(15) Anycity 25/1, Tenth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (12.1f, good to soft, 25/1) 76 days ago. Down in trip with work to do. Shown nothing since 2021 and needs further than this these days; 7lb wrong.

LTO Selection:

This is competitive, but there should be a handicap of this nature in SEA GARDENS. Joseph O'Brien's charge has been beaten less than three lengths in all three races this year and had a notable debut fourth at Leopardstown in October last year. Wayne Hassett takes 7lb off his back and the duo ought to be more than competitive. Brave Troop weaved through to be just denied in third over an extended 7f at this track on Tuesday. He has winning form over slightly further than this trip and is more than adept on slow ground if turned out again. Duke Of Leggagh loves testing ground so has to come under consideration. Simply Sideways, Dazzling Spirit and Yokkell all add plenty to the mix.

Plenty are in with a shout but SIMPLY SIDEWAYS comes here on the back of a career-best success at Clonmel so edges the vote. Dazzling Spirit is also a recent winner at the same track and weighted to go well too, with Lady Arwen, Bridge of Dawn and Eloquent Arthur all needing to be factored in too.

SEA GARDENS can go well. The 3yo is yet to run a bad race and he gets the services of a talented apprentice still able to claim 7lb

9th	4 9th (4) (12/1 +45%) Grey Fable	12 12/1(+45%)	(4) Grey Fable 12/1, Creditable fourth of 9 in minor event (15/2) at Cork (12f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Others more persuasive. Maiden has run well on last few starts and can do so again but has a tough draw.
10th	11 10th (11) (14/1 -56%) Siouxanne	14 14/1(-56%)	(11) Siouxanne 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 12 in maiden at Killarney (11.2f, good to soft, 18/1) 66 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Something to find on form. Not without promise in three maidens and worth a market check on h'cap bow.
11th	8 11th (8) (25/1 +38%) Susiesparkle	25 25/1(+38%)	(8) Susiesparkle 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, bit below form eighth of 14 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good) 39 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Showed some ability in maidens and not a bad run on h'cap bow; back up in trip.
12th	6 12th (6) (16/1 +27%) Alluring	16 16/1(+27%)	(6) Alluring 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good sixth of 13 in handicap (22/1) at Navan (14f, good to soft) 21 days ago, running on. Mild promise in maidens and on h'cap debut; down 3lb but needs more.
13th	14 13th (14) (16/1 +27%) Blenheim Lad	16 16/1(+27%)	(14) Blenheim Lad 16/1, Good fifth of 13 in handicap at Navan (14f, good to soft, 12/1) 21 days ago, better placed than most. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Best h'cap run was over 1m6f at Navan last time but was keen and this trip should suit.
14th	7 14th (7) (33/1 -83%) Cruiscin Lan	33 33/1(-83%)	(7) Cruiscin Lan 33/1, 10/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Down Royal (12.8f, good to soft) 55 days ago. Others more persuasive. Decent 2nd at Limerick but has to rebound from two much lesser efforts.

LTO Selection:

KERMIYA was a touch unlucky at Galway recently and can gain compensation here. The Fastnet Rock filly got shuffled back a bit before the straight, before getting involved in some jostling for position. She only failed by a head to peg back Golden Sandbanks at the line and was in front a couple of strides after. Off just 2lb higher, she has to have a big shout. It's interesting to see JJ Slevin getting the leg-up on Right Now and the maiden is capable of a big showing. He kept on well when third in a Curragh maiden and may appreciate going further now. Grey Fable has been knocking on the door in some competitive enough heats and could grab prize-money again.

KERMIYA has shaped well both starts since switched to handicaps, latterly going close at Galway last week. She was arguably unlucky not to get her head in front on that occasion and, still open to improvement, the Fastnet Rock filly looks the way to go here. Right Now was a close third on his first start since being gelded at the Curragh and looks a threat now pitched into a handicap. Night Moon is likely to be on the premises, while handicap debutante Cosmic Lady is one to note in the betting.

KERMIYA finished off to great effect when just held over this trip at Galway last time, not getting a clear run and can make amends.

16:35 Listowel Handicap 12f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (4/1 +47%) Vera Verto	4 4/1(+47%)	(7) Vera Verto 4/1, Latest win at Ballinrobe in June. 8/1, good fourth of 9 in handicap at the Curragh (12f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Likely to give another good account. Just denied at the Curragh over this trip by a progressive sort; go well off 1lb lower.
2	3 2nd (3) (16/1 +36%) Vischio	16 16/1(+36%)	(3) Vischio 16/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Latest win at Ballinrobe in July. Sixth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Clonmel (16.6f, good) 14 days ago. Back down in trip. Others preferred. Won at Tramore and Ballinrobe this term but has to rebound from a modest Clonmel run.

4	10 4th (10) (9/1 +0%) Lord Erskine	9 9/1(+0%)	(10) Lord Erskine 9/1, C&D winner. Last of 5 in minor event at Galway (8.6f, good to soft, 25/1) 9 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Stays 2m and 1m was much too short at Galway last time; goes on this ground.
5th	4 5th (4) (50/1 +50%) Caradoc	50 50/1(+50%)	(4) Caradoc 50/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2019. Tongue strap on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in handicap (125/1) at Killarney (14.2f, good) 28 days ago, very slowly away. Makes limited appeal. Fourth in Cambridgeshire last year; way below that level in two Flat starts for this yard.
6th	12 6th (12) (14/1 -40%) Immelmann	14 14/1(-40%)	(12) Immelmann 14/1, Last of 7 in handicap at Tramore (12f, good, 4/1) 8 days ago. Something to prove at present. Maiden has been mostly disappointing in three starts for this yard and questions.
7th	6 7th (6) (6/1 +20%) Oriole	6 6/1(+20%)	(6) Oriole 6/1, Back to winning ways at Naas (10.5f) last month and backed that up with good third of 5 in minor event at Punchestown (9f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Shortlisted. Won at Naas over 1m2f and a good Punchestown effort over a furlong shorter; up in trip.
8th	2 8th (2) (5/1 +29%) No Niki No	5 5/1(+29%)	(2) No Niki No 5/1, Winner at Leopardstown in June. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (12.8f, good to firm, 18/1) 12 days ago. Respected. Won at Leopardstown and solid in defeat since over various trips; can be involved.
9th	9 9th (9) (11/1 +73%) Bold Approach	11 11/1(+73%)	(9) Bold Approach 11/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2019. 50/1, first run since leaving Brendan Duke when ninth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (12.8f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Must improve. Disappointing earlier this season but a better effort in a premier h'cap last time.
10th	11 10th (11) (18/1 +64%) Michigan State	18 18/1(+64%)	(11) Michigan State 18/1, Lightly-raced winner. Eighteenth of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good to soft, 40/1) 33 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs to bounce back. Not bad first two starts for this yard but has to rebound from a poor run.
11th	8 11th (8) (20/1 -43%) Vultan	20 20/1(-43%)	(8) Vultan 20/1, Shaped much better than bare result when eighth of 17 in handicap (66/1) at Galway (12f, good) 48 days ago, not knocked about. 2 lb lower now and must enter calculations. Not at his best on the Flat and over hurdles this year so has to do more.
12th	5 12th (5) (18/1 -100%) San Martino	18 18/1(-100%)	(5) San Martino 18/1, 8/1, good fifth of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (21.1f, good to soft) 142 days ago. Off 142 days. Fairly useful on the Flat, creditable on last Flat outing. Not discounted. Last seen on the Flat when a close 3rd in this event last year; hurdling since; player.

LTO Selection:

VERA VERTO handles a good cut and may be able to strike for the in-form Gavin Cromwell yard. The Prince Of Lir filly wasn't beaten far when fourth in a competitive fillies' handicap at the Curragh and has been eased 1lb since. Jabbar comes here seeking a hat-trick after a couple of narrow successes. He has pounced late both times so may have been value for a bit more than the winning margin and has to be regarded as a leading contender again. Oriole ran well in a decent little conditions race at Punchestown, finishing third to Fleetfoot, and is another for the shortlist back in handicap company.

JABBAR is going the right way and makes plenty of appeal in his hat-trick bid. Oriole and Vultan are also of interest.

IMAGINARIUM hasn't been at his best in two starts this season but might be able to get off the mark now returned to softer ground.

17:10 Listowel Maiden 12f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (5/1 +29%) Charming Star	5 5/1(+29%)	(4) Charming Star 5/1, Once-raced gelding. Cheekpieces on, fourth of 13 in maiden (50/1) at Navan (10f, good to soft) on debut 19 days ago. Claims if building on that. Showed ability on debut for this yard in a Navan maiden over 1m2f; should have improved.
2	11 2nd (11) (9/4 +55%) Hey Whatever	2.25 9/4(+55%)	(11) Hey Whatever 9/4, Lightly-raced filly. Good third of 13 in maiden at Killarney (11.2f, good to soft, 22/1) 66 days ago. One of likelier contenders. Third over 1m3f at Killarney in July, finishing 3l ahead of Alcalance; has handled soft.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/4 +21%) Harsh	2.75 11/4(+21%)	(5) Harsh 11/4, Back from 5 months off when respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Naas (10.5f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Trainer going well. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Can make presence felt. Should have improved from Naas handicap run; soft ground fine and cheekpieces up in trip.
4	12 4th (12) (33/1 +50%) Nomenclature	33 33/1(+50%)	(12) Nomenclature 33/1, Twice-raced filly. 33/1, fifth of 10 in maiden at Roscommon (11.6f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Work to do. Was well beaten at Roscommon on return and loads to find.
5th	2 5th (2) (22/1 +33%) Peddler's Lane	22 22/1(+33%)	(2) Peddler's Lane 22/1, Once-raced gelding. 22/1, fifth of 11 in maiden at Galway (8.3f, soft) on debut 47 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Work to do. Late starter didn't run without promise in testing ground over 1m at Galway.
6th	7 6th (7) (11/4 +85%) V Power	2.75 11/4(+85%)	(7) V Power 11/4, Once-raced gelding. Eighth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, soft, 10/1) on debut. Off 11 months. Significantly up in trip. Improvement required. Behind the brilliant Paddington on debut last year; gelded since and absence a concern.
7th	3 7th (3) (20/1 -67%) Acquest	20 20/1(-67%)	(3) Acquest 20/1, Twice-raced colt. 13/2, fifth of 12 in maiden at Roscommon (12f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Yard having good spell. Each-way claims. Only 5.5l behind at Roscommon last time; could get involved if improving a bit further.

LTO Selection:

ALALCANCE just failed to get up having had to wait for a gap at Bellewstown and would be a deserving winner now. The Mastercraftsman filly found herself behind a wall of horses two furlongs from home and the line just came a stride too soon as she went down by short head to Night Glow. This looks a winnable opportunity for her. Harsh sets the standard off a mark of 82, and connections take 7lb off with Conor Stone-Walsh. He ran well enough in handicap company last time to give him a big shout back in a maiden. Hey Whatever ran well when third at Killarney on her last outing and is another for the shortlist. She was ahead of the selection on that occasion, but a stiffer test of stamina may suit Alalcance better now.

Preference is for ALALCANCE, who was only narrowly denied at Bellewstown last month and remains low mileage. Harsh and Hey Whatever rate the principal dangers.

A chance is taken on CHARMING STAR to improve enough from his promising Navan debut, with his pedigree indicating he can handle soft

LTO Selection:

DUBEYERACINGCRAIC could be nicely treated on her handicap debut. The Starspangledbanner filly was the first of a treble for Charles Byrnes at Downpatrick a few weeks ago and won nicely that day over hurdles, despite still being a touch green running to the last. Her best effort on the level came first time up, when fourth to Merlin Giant at Down Royal, and on that effort she looks potentially well treated off 67. Beautiful Chaos has lost out narrowly on her last couple of starts and after just a 2lb rise for a nose defeat at Tramore, she's another big player. Jake Peter is also only 2lb higher for his win at Killarney last month and is another who has to be considered.

BEAUTIFUL CHAOS has just a Killarney maiden success to her name from 16 career starts but she arrives here on the back of near-misses at Navan and Tramore. The 5-y-o remains on a workable mark and can deservedly get her head back in front. Though yet to strike on the Flat, Global Export boasts several pieces of form that suggest he could be a serious player here off his present mark, while cases can also be made for Londonofficecallin and Jake Peter.

It could be worth taking a chance on SIR ALLEN, who was 3rd over 1m4f at this meeting last year and much improved over hurdles since

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.
