The one to beat. Placed in 6 runs under rules; below form when distant 2nd latest; should be in mix if fit.

10th	14 10th (14) (150/1 -650%) Opposite Ends	150 150/1(-650%)	(14) Opposite Ends 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.3f, good to soft, 66/1) 122 days ago. Unseated on debut and tailed off twice since; probably best watched after 122 days off.

Runner-up in one of his 4 point starts; hard to recommend on what he's shown under rules.
13th	2 13th (2) (250/1 +0%) Another Question	250 250/1(+0%)	(2) Another Question 250/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 12 in novice hurdle at Tramore (21.4f, good to soft, 200/1) 40 days ago. Poor form in three runs at triple figure odds so far.

Although yet to get his head in front in seven career starts to date, IRISH PANTHER undoubtedly has the ability to win races. The Edward O'Grady-trained gelding finished runner-up on his only point-to-point outing, before reaching the frame on all three bumper starts. Having done likewise over hurdles, the seven-year-old gives the impression that it is only a matter of time before he makes the breakthrough. Stormbreaker, who won twice on the Flat when trained in Britain, is entitled to come on from his recent hurdling debut. Although the Willie Mullins-trained five-year-old finished second, he should be capable of better. Stablemate Mr Escobar boasts a similar profile, having shaped with promise on his penultimate start.

STORMBREAKER chased home a pretty useful type in Intense Approach (winner again since) on debut in this sphere at Downpatrick and, with the promise of better to come, he earns the vote ahead of Irish Panther, who sets the standard but he was below par at Killarney when last seen in May and is becoming expensive to follow. The selection's stablemate Mr Escobar is best of the rest.

MR ESCOBAR ran out when last seen over timber but shaped with promise previously and arrives on the back of a big Flat run

14:40 Listowel Handicap Hurdle 16f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	18 1st (18) (9/1 -13%) Frankendael	9 9/1(-13%)	(18) Frankendael 9/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Thrice-raced winner over hurdles. 1 win from 3 runs this season. Makes handicap hurdle debut. May well do better. Getting better with each run for new yard; off the mark latest and big player on h'cap bow.
2	9 2nd (9) (14/1 +22%) Lord Erskine	14 14/1(+22%)	(9) Lord Erskine 14/1, Last of 3 in minor event hurdle (10/3) at Galway (21.6f, good to soft) 18 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Back down in trip. Blinkers back on. Roughly 2l behind Tounsivator in Galway festival h'cap hurdle but not as good there latest.
3	11 3rd (11) (8/1 +27%) Helvic Dream	8 8/1(+27%)	(11) Helvic Dream 8/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. Successful at Navan in February. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Fairly useful hurdler, poor on last hurdle outing. Encouraging start to hurdles last term and arrives on the back of a big run at the Curragh.
4	17 4th (17) (22/1 -57%) Four Clean Aces	22 22/1(-57%)	(17) Four Clean Aces 22/1, 1 win from 3 runs this season. Respectable fourth of 8 in minor event hurdle at Bellewstown (17.2f, good, 10/3) 30 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Has work to do. Off the mark over timber last month; not as good latest and may want return to further.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/2 +22%) Tounsivator	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(2) Tounsivator 7/2, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. 10/11, career best when winning 5-runner novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (18.6f, good) 35 days ago, cruising clear. Open to progress and he's Paul Townend's pick of the 5 Willie Mullins-trained contenders. Narrowly denied at Galway before novice hurdle success latest and clearly on the up.
6th	16 6th (16) (16/1 -14%) The Dasher Conway	16 16/1(-14%)	(16) The Dasher Conway 16/1, Latest win in chase at Kilbeggan in May. Creditable second of 11 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 21 days ago, just failing. Needs a couple of these to falter. Went close from reduced hurdle mark latest; up 4lb but big player with Stone-Walsh's claim.
7th	14 7th (14) (12/1 +33%) Dark Note	12 12/1(+33%)	(14) Dark Note 12/1, 5/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Clonmel (16.6f, good) 22 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Fairly useful hurdler, creditable on last hurdle outing. Others more persuasive. Maiden hurdle winner at Sligo last year; form this year suggests he's on a tough mark.
8th	12 8th (12) (50/1 -79%) Drumgill	50 50/1(-79%)	(12) Drumgill 50/1, 3 wins from 10 runs this season. Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft, 22/1) 21 days ago.

9th	7 9th (7) (14/1 +22%) Icare Desbois	14 14/1(+22%)	(7) Icare Desbois 14/1, Latest win in hurdle at Naas in April. 5/1, below form sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (17f, soft) 36 days ago. Maiden hurdle winner; would have won h'cap off 125 without unseat; not as good lately.
10th	6 10th (6) (7/2 +65%) Man O Work	3.5 7/2(+65%)	(6) Man O Work 7/2, C&D winner. 7/2, bit below form fifth of 12 in handicap at Killarney (14.4f, good to soft) 35 days ago, never nearer. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Has good chance on form. Won this last year; not at best in 2 h'cap hurdles this summer; slower ground may help.
11th	10 11th (10) (66/1 -136%) Little Mixup	66 66/1(-136%)	(10) Little Mixup 66/1, 40/1, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Opposable. Gained 4th h'cap hurdle success in January; not as good since and others on better marks.
12th	4 12th (4) (13/2 +7%) Risk Belle	6.5 13/2(+7%)	(4) Risk Belle 13/2, 10/1, below form twelfth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16f, good to soft) 57 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Both wins for this yard at Fairyhouse (latest in Gr 3 class) but doesn't look well treated.
13th	5 13th (5) (22/1 -144%) Royal Eagle	22 22/1(-144%)	(5) Royal Eagle 22/1, 4/1, good second of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (17.5f, good to soft) 31 days ago, always holding on (first past the post but subsequently disqualified).

Thirteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Galway (16f, good to soft) 57 days ago. No wins since maiden hurdle win at Punchestown in January; did too much early latest.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (40/1 -122%) Sherodan	40 40/1(-122%)	(8) Sherodan 40/1, Lightly-raced winner under Rules. Seventh of 9 in maiden (14/1) at Roscommon (12.2f, heavy) on Flat debut 38 days ago, slowly away. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Bumper/maiden hurdle winner; should be fit after recent Flat run; tough mark but unexposed.

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

An eye-catching fifth on the Flat at the Curragh last time, HELVIC DREAM should be spot on for this return to hurdling. The Noel Meade-trained seven-year-old looks very well handicapped off a mark of 127, having also attained a triple digit rating on the level. At home with an ease in the ground, the recent rain will have been very welcome to connections of the gelding. Veteran Lord Erskine has been in fine form all year despite his advancing years. Winner of a Listed handicap hurdle at the Dublin Racing Festival, the 11-year-old showed up well on two runs at Galway. Last year's winner Man O Work is now 6lb higher in the ratings but has been lightly raced in recent times. A repeat bid has almost certainly been his primary objective.

Unexposed 5-y-os TOUNSIVATOR and Frankendael both make plenty of appeal. Preference is for the former, who went close in a Galway handicap on his penultimate start prior to coasting home in a Kilbeggan novice. Man O Work will be a threat if he puts his best foot forward, while Sherodan, who should be all the better for last month's reappearance spin on the Flat, is also accorded respect.

This looks competitive but THE DASHER CONWAY still looks well treated, despite a 4lb rise for an unlucky defeat at Kilbeggan recently

15:15 Listowel Handicap Hurdle 16f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	16 1st (16) (3/1 +79%) Mount Ferns	3 3/1(+79%)	(16) Mount Ferns 3/1, Lightly raced 6-y-o who wasn't seen to best effect when eighth of 10 on handicap hurdle debut at Market Rasen (16.6f, good) in May. Has since left Emma Lavelle and the market can prove a useful guide as to expectations. 2nd in bumper and signs he might be capable from this mark when last seen in Britain.
2	2 2nd (2) (14/1 0%) It'sallabouteve	14 14/1(0%)	(2) It'sallabouteve 14/1, Latest win in chase at Tipperary in July. Tenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (17f, good, 9/1) 71 days ago. Not taken lightly. Gained first chase win in July; lesser run over timber since; may bounce back.
3	20 3rd (20) (9/1 -13%) Kate Ill Know	9 9/1(-13%)	(20) Kate Ill Know 9/1, Latest win in hurdle at Wexford in August. 11/1, good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.9f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Of interest with a run in this groove. Reserve 2. Ended losing run at Wexford last month and only narrowly denied since; thriving; reserve.
4	9 4th (9) (12/1 +52%) Smallcraftwarning	12 12/1(+52%)	(9) Smallcraftwarning 12/1, Winner in hurdle at Thurles in February. 22/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (20.2f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Back down in trip. Winner in February and only narrowly denied in May; trip may not have suited twice since.
5th	5 5th (5) (9/2 +44%) Erigmoor	4.5 9/2(+44%)	(5) Erigmoor 9/2, Bit below form fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Ballinrobe (17.2f, good to soft, 10/3) 14 days ago, no extra from 2 out. Switches from chase to hurdles and he's another not out of things. 0-14; some good runs in defeat over fences of late but others on better marks.
6th	10 6th (10) (5/1 +58%) Junot	5 5/1(+58%)	(10) Junot 5/1, 1 win from 3 runs this season. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (20.4f, good to soft, 8/1) 28 days ago. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive. Lost the maiden tag at Wexford in May; all best form is with plenty of cut; should go well.
7th	12 7th (12) (50/1 -25%) Breakintheclouds	50 50/1(-25%)	(12) Breakintheclouds 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1, respectable eleventh of 21 in handicap hurdle at Naas (16f, soft). Off 8 months and probably best to look elsewhere. 0-18; low-key form over timber in 4 runs so far inc' h'cap debut when last seen.
8th	15 8th (15) (12/1 +40%) Nevermindestranger	12 12/1(+40%)	(15) Nevermindestranger 12/1, Fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Down Royal (16.9f, good) 28 days ago, beaten before 2 out. Others look to hold more pressing claims. Promise under rules last year but hasn't kicked on in handicaps this time around.
9th	18 9th (18) (16/1 +20%) Younowhatimean	16 16/1(+20%)	(18) Younowhatimean 16/1, Maiden who produced best effort yet when third at Ballinrobe (22f) in July. However, not in same form when seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Cork (18.4f, good to soft, 11/1) 53 days ago. Hood back on. Point winner who hit the frame at Ballinrobe (2m6f) but may want step back up in trip.
7	7 \|U\| (7) (16/1 -60%) Dreamz	16 16/1(-60%)	(7) Dreamz 16/1, 7/2, respectable seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.3f, good to soft) 122 days ago. Others more persuasive. Only narrowly denied two runs back but not as good latest; 0-11 and off 122 days.
11	11 \|PU\| (11) (22/1 -10%) Stormy Jenn	22 22/1(-10%)	(11) Stormy Jenn 22/1, Fair winner at 9f on Flat but out of sorts since reappearance second at Naas in April. Matched previous hurdles best when fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, good) 28 days ago but questionable whether there's a great deal more to come now handicapping. Dual Flat winner; shown ability over timber and workable mark to play with on h'cap debut.

A dual winner on the Flat, the Tony Mullins-trained OAKLEY can register a first success over hurdles. Having shown a hint of ability in his qualifying runs, the six-year-old was sent off a well backed 7/2f on his handicap debut at Tipperary in May. Leading after three out, a bad mistake at the penultimate flight saw him lose all chance. Despite that, the son of Protectionist kept on to finish a respectable fifth. With a better round of jumping, the gelding should have too much class for this grade. Twice successful over hurdles this season, Flashthelights has to be of interest for trainer Noel Kelly. The eight-year-old makes the long trek down from County Derry so is clearly fancied by connections. The locally-trained Tipp For Mac has yet to win a race but is a consistent horse who should at least reach the frame.

Unsurprisingly plenty arrive with claims including the returning OAKLEY. He showed much more than previously in this sphere and shaped better than the bare result to boot when fifth on handicap debut at Tipperary in May and he could be worth chancing back from a break with the prospect of more to come. Benjis Benefit is much better than his latest effort suggests and is feared. Impero and Flashthelights complete the shortlist.

A drop in trip on rain-softened ground could be the answer for JUNOT who hasn't had his preferred conditions in recent starts

13	13 (13) (50/1 -25%) King's Commander	50 50/1(-25%)	(13) King's Commander 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fairly useful winner at 8f on flat. Blinkered for 1st time, last of 7 in minor event at Galway (14.1f, soft, 50/1) 56 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Has shown very little since joining Shark Hanlon; hard to fancy.
1	11 1st (11) (9/2 +10%) West Clare	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(11) West Clare 9/2, 4/1, very good ½-length second of 19 to Oskar High in handicap hurdle at Galway (22.4f, good to soft) 18 days ago, just failing. Not taken lightly. Only beaten half a length on his first try at this sort of trip at Galway this month.
2	10 2nd (10) (16/1 +36%) Granda George	16 16/1(+36%)	(10) Granda George 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, eleventh of 14 in novice hurdle at Killarney (16.4f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Significantly up in trip for this handicap hurdle debut and he's open to improvement. Runner-up in a point-to-point but made little impact in three maiden hurdles to date.
3	14 3rd (14) (7/2 +22%) Hees Dynamite	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(14) Hees Dynamite 7/2, Creditable second of 20 in handicap hurdle at Galway (22.4f, good to soft, 18/1) 18 days ago. Merits consideration. Holds every chance judged on his latest second over this trip at Galway; big chance.
4	9 4th (9) (8/1 -60%) Dream Once More	8 8/1(-60%)	(9) Dream Once More 8/1, 20/1, creditable third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.9f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Enters calculations. Caught the eye when third behind the progressive Chutzpal and must enter calculations.
5th	7 5th (7) (22/1 +56%) Loughrask Rainbow	22 22/1(+56%)	(7) Loughrask Rainbow 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft, 125/1) 48 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Might improve on his handicap debut but he can't be advised on all known form.
6th	6 6th (6) (7/1 +0%) Letters To Juliet	7 7/1(+0%)	(6) Letters To Juliet 7/1, Hooded for 1st time tongue strap on for 1st time, good third of 16 in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Bellewstown (20.5f, good) 30 days ago. Third behind an impressive winner at Bellewstown last month; contender.
7th	20 7th (20) (40/1 +0%) Another Nightmare	40 40/1(+0%)	(20) Another Nightmare 40/1, Course winner. 33/1, eleventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.4f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. RESERVE. Hasn't done much since winning at this festival last year but she's 1lb lower; reserve.
8th	3 8th (3) (16/1 +52%) Hurricane Darwin	16 16/1(+52%)	(3) Hurricane Darwin 16/1, Course winner. 25/1, fell in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.8f, good to soft) 77 days ago. Opposable. Won at this festival two years ago but would be some performance to land this at his age.
9th	5 9th (5) (12/1 +0%) Spavango	12 12/1(+0%)	(5) Spavango 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 15/2, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy) 169 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Ran too freely when last seen but the step up in trip should help.
10th	18 10th (18) (12/1 +88%) Askwell	12 12/1(+88%)	(18) Askwell 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (19f, heavy, 28/1). Off 9 months. Has shown nothing worthwhile in his career to date, including handicaps the last twice.
11th	1 11th (1) (16/1 +68%) Charlie Buckett	16 16/1(+68%)	(1) Charlie Buckett 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Eighth of 15 in novice hurdle (100/1) at Killarney (17f, good to soft) 138 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Hopes rest on step up in trip on handicap debut but best to look elsewhere.

Recent Galway runner-up HEES DYNAMITE can go one better in this similar grade. Perhaps unlucky to bump into a well handicapped rival at the western track, the Eric McNamara-trained gelding holds leading claims here. Jockey Sean Flanagan looks a significant booking for a stable that tend to target this meeting. West Clare, another that had to settle for minor honours at Ballybrit last month, should also be involved for Brian McMahon. The Leading Light gelding was only just touched off when sent off favourite under Richie Deegan. Locally trained Spavango, who shaped well in decent maidens over the winter, should find this somewhat easier. Eoin McCarthy is sure to have had this meeting in mind for the gelding for some time.

The vote goes to RANGER BILLY, who found just one too good at Ballinrobe last time and he remains on a workable mark up 2 lb. Hees Dynamite is 0-11 overall but was also runner-up on his latest start at Galway and will be a danger to all if able to build on that. West Clare went down all guns blazing when touched off by the re-opposing Oskar High last time and is taken to get the better of that rival on these revised terms. Granda George is one to keep an eye on now handicapping.

A chance is taken on HEES DYNAMITE, who probably hit the front too soon when runner-up over this trip at Galway

Winner of this corresponding race in 2022, TEMPTATIONINMILAN can record another success for trainer Charles Byrnes. The Milan gelding missed last year's renewal as he was later returning to training. However, having won off a mark of 112 last February, the eight-year-old doesn't look badly treated here off 4lb lower here. Ballinrobe runner-up Cahirdown Boy is sure to have been primed for this local meeting. However, the Eric McNamara-trained gelding has shown his best form on quicker ground so wouldn't want conditions to deteriorate further. Marelly has yet to show any worthwhile form over fences but is nicely handicapped on his best form over hurdles. With soft ground very much in his favour, the Philip Rothwell-trained gelding has to be a contender.

GAELIC DES CHASTYS has made a promising start to chasing and, having found one too good again at Roscommon last time, he's fancied to open his acccount in this sphere. Cahirdown Boy and Farrokh, also runners-up last time, should also be involved.

EVERYSTEP OFTHEWAY should get a lovely toe into the race as he sits in behind the likely front-runner and gets the vote

Having yet to strike from five attempts over hurdles, reverting to the Flat could see OMNISCIENT return to winning ways. A dual winner for Sir Mark Prescott, the five-year-old has been less than fluent since switching his attention to jumping. Without any obstacles in his path on this occasion, the gelding looks to have strong claims. Killarney winner Seddon faces a stiffer task over this shorter trip but given the manner of his success last time the John McConnell-trained veteran commands maximum respect. Former German winner Weston has yet to get his head in front in this country but shaped with promise when fourth for current connections at Navan in May. The gelding had excuses when badly hampered at Galway on his latest start.

JETARA has proven most likeable and progressive over hurdles and, getting weight from most, she's worth a chance to make a winning Flat debut at the possible expense of Weston, who sets the standard and has an excuse for his latest outing. Seddon is also of interest.

Preference is for WESTON (nap). He had an excuse latest, he has won on soft ground and a repeat of his Navan run in May could suffice.

Gavin Cromwell introduces a well-bred newcomer in the shape of EMILY'S LIGHT. A half-sister to a Grade 1-placed horse in the US, the daughter of Diamond Boy is an intriguing debutant and a bold bid is expected. Runner-up on her first three starts, the Shark Hanlon-trained Pure Logic disappointed at Killarney last time. Although having something to prove now, the four-year-old sets the standard amongst those that have raced. Amboyna has shown promise in her three starts and is another to consider.

AMEN KATE is both out of and half-sister to dual bumper winners and, with Patrick Mullins booked for her debut, she makes most appeal in what looks quite an open event on paper. Fellow newcomer Emily's Light merits respect and Pure Logic looks the pick of those with experience.

The most likely debutante is Gavin Cromwell's EMILY'S LIGHT, who is related to plenty of winners and the stable do well in this sphere

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.
