13:00 Naas Handicap Chase 20f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (7/4 +61%) Answer To Kayf	1.75 7/4(+61%)	(1) Answer To Kayf 7/4, Useful winner at 19f over hurdles. Creditable fifth of 12 in novice chase (16/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 41 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut. Looks vulnerable for win purposes. Two okay runs over fences; well handicapped on his hurdles form; big contender here.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/2 +10%) Canal End	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(6) Canal End 9/2, Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. Eighth of 12 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (17f, good to soft, 6/1) 31 days ago. Disappointing in a Leopardstown handicap chase last month; the step up in trip will suit.
3	8 3rd (8) (13/2 -18%) El Champo	6.5 13/2(-18%)	(8) El Champo 13/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/4, respectable fourth of 9 in novice chase at Down Royal (20.6f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Has run with credit in novice and handicap company; prefers better ground but respected.
4	4 4th (4) (6/1 -100%) Individualiste	6 6/1(-100%)	(4) Individualiste 6/1, Promising sort. 2 wins from 4 runs this season. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap chase at Navan (20.6f, good to soft, 10/11) 42 days ago. Up 10 lb for that but this 7-y-o may well have more to offer and is greatly respected in his hat-trick bid. Looks to have a favourite's chance; stays well but would not want it too soft.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/1 +31%) American Money	11 11/1(+31%)	(9) American Money 11/1, Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. 14/1, eighth of 11 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (16.3f, soft) 10 days ago. Back up in trip for this handicap chase debut and likely to do better before long. Ran well for a long way at Fairyhouse last week; respected back at his favourite venue.
6th	11 6th (11) (33/1 +0%) Petit King	33 33/1(+0%)	(11) Petit King 33/1, 50/1, nineteenth of 24 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 57 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Well beaten in a Fairyhouse handicap hurdle on his return two months ago; others preferred.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (18/1 -29%) Miss Pronunciation	18 18/1(-29%)	(3) Miss Pronunciation 18/1, 28/1, fifth of 8 in novice chase at this C&D (heavy) 21 days ago. Open to progress now pitched into a handicap. Jumping has been found wanting over fences to date and could be better treated.
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (8/1 -7%) Kiltealy Park	8 8/1(-7%)	(10) Kiltealy Park 8/1, Fairly useful winner at 21f over hurdles. 15/2, tailed-off fifth of 7 to Bioluminescence in Gr 2 chase at Limerick (22.6f, soft) 30 days ago. Sights now lowered and mark for handicap debut in this sphere looks fair. Clonmel winner not badly handicapped and stays this trip well; unlikely to be far away.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (10/1 +50%) Rainbow Trail	10 10/1(+50%)	(2) Rainbow Trail 10/1, Latest win in chase at Gowran in October. Eighth of 9 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (21f, good to soft, 11/1) 43 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut and needs to get back on track. Attempting to bounce back from a terrible run at Fairyhouse last month; others preferred.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (28/1 -100%) Buachaillbocht	28 28/1(-100%)	(7) Buachaillbocht 28/1, Fairly useful winner at 23f over hurdles. 22/1, sixth of 7 in novice chase at Punchestown (24f, soft) 26 days ago. Open to improvement now handicapping in this sphere. A trio of low key runs over fences to date; ideally wants further; best watched again..
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (28/1 +58%) Palace Rock	28 28/1(+58%)	(5) Palace Rock 28/1, Fairly useful winner at 12f on the Flat. 11/1, fell in handicap chase at Limerick (19.2f, good to soft) 98 days ago. Difficult ask. Not seen since falling in a Limerick handicap chase in October; needs to find a bit more.

CANAL END ran encouragingly over a shorter distance over Christmas and looks nicely treated. Rated 125 over hurdles, he was well held on his initial chase runs and while visibility was reduced due to fog at Leopardstown, he was sighted doing nice work in the latter stages, with today's distance sure to bring about improvement. Answer To Kayf has top weight but nonetheless also has a few pounds in hand, under his 5lb claimer. He finished second at last May's Punchestown festival and having performed satisfactorily in hot beginners chases recently, drops to handicaps and is rated 8lb lower than over hurdles. Individualiste is 10lb higher than when winning at Navan but should again compete.

INDIVIDUALISTE had no problem with the drop back to this trip when adding to November's 25f Thurles success at Navan last month and, while a 10 lb rise in the weights will ask a question of him, Gavin Cromwell's charge may well have more to offer. He is taken to complete the hat-trick, perhaps at the chief expense of the consistent El Champo. A case can also be made for Kiltealy Park, while the likes of American Money, Buachaillbocht and Miss Pronunciation are all open to improvement.

Top-weight ANSWER TO KAYF ran okay in a couple of good beginners chases and off a mark of 130 is hard to ignore. He could take beating

13:30 Naas Maiden Hurdle 16f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	3 1st (3) (10/11 -105%) Charlus	0.909091 10/11(-105%)	(3) Charlus 10/11, 3 lengths second of 5 to Sibayan in listed race at Bordeaux (9.4f, heavy, 19/10) on final run for Jean-Claude Rouget in France last May. Joined top yard ahead of this hurdles debut and he's a potentially very useful recruit. Triumph Hurdle entry and surprising if he was not ready to strike here.
2	4 2nd (4) (2/1 +64%) Holy See	2 2/1(+64%)	(4) Holy See 2/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. 25/1, first run since leaving Christopher Head when fourth of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) on NH debut 31 days ago. Place possibilities. Promising run at Limerick but might have his work cut out against the likely favourite.
3	5 3rd (5) (28/1 -27%) Kool One	28 28/1(-27%)	(5) Kool One 28/1, Fair Flat winner, making GB/IRE jumps debut. 11/2, won 19-runner handicap at Navan (14f, good to soft) on latest start in October. Interesting to see how he gets on now switched to hurdles. Navan Flat handicap winner; hurdles bow and has a Triumph Hurdle entry; best watched here.
4	17 4th (17) (100/1 +33%) Drusilla	100 100/1(+33%)	(17) Drusilla 100/1, Fair Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. 80/1, seventh of 12 in juvenile hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good) 82 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Not beaten far in two starts over hurdles; tried in a tongue-tie here but up against it.
5th	19 5th (19) (250/1 +0%) Stiltellinemnuttin	250 250/1(+0%)	(19) Stiltellinemnuttin 250/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 14 in juvenile hurdle (300/1) at Punchestown (16.4f, soft) 13 days ago. No show in two completed starts over hurdles and others make much more appeal.
6th	10 6th (10) (20/1 +9%) Teofimo	20 20/1(+9%)	(10) Teofimo 20/1, Fairly useful maiden on the Flat. 8/1 and hood on for 1st time in this code, eighth of 12 in maiden at Dundalk (12f) 39 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. No impact when taking a bad fall at Fairyhouse on his hurdles debut; wants better ground.
7th	12 7th (12) (11/2 -10%) Young Churchill	5.5 11/2(-10%)	(12) Young Churchill 11/2, Fairly useful maiden on the Flat. Promising sort. 14/1, third of 14 in juvenile hurdle at Fairyhouse (16.5f, good to soft) on NH debut 43 days ago. Should improve. Good third at Fairyhouse last month; a likely alternative if the favourite underperforms.
8th	8 8th (8) (9/1 -13%) San Hilario	9 9/1(-13%)	(8) San Hilario 9/1, Promising sort. First run since leaving Hugo Merienne when fifth of 20 in juvenile hurdle (13/2) at Punchestown (16.4f, soft) on NH debut 26 days ago. Open to progress. Shapes as though he wants further and the likely softer ground will suit; each-way chance.
9th	16 9th (16) (250/1 -25%) Bhean Saibhre	250 250/1(-25%)	(16) Bhean Saibhre 250/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Twice-raced maiden in this sphere. 28/1, last of 8 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (15.5f, good to soft) 72 days ago. Did okay on her hurdles debut at Fairyhouse but well beaten at Punchestown two days later.
10th	7 10th (7) (66/1 +34%) Mickey Cohen	66 66/1(+34%)	(7) Mickey Cohen 66/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Ninth of 21 in juvenile hurdle (100/1) at Punchestown (16.7f, soft) on NH debut 64 days ago. Not disgraced on his hurdles debut at Punchestown in November; stable second string here.
11th	11 11th (11) (200/1 -33%) Tremaine	200 200/1(-33%)	(11) Tremaine 200/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden. 125/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, eleventh of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 31 days ago. No impression in two runs over hurdles and likely to fare better in handicaps.
12th	9 12th (9) (300/1 -50%) Stone Forest	300 300/1(-50%)	(9) Stone Forest 300/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 14 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, soft, 300/1) 13 days ago. Beaten 98 lengths in two starts over hurdles; needs this for a mark.
13th	18 13th (18) (250/1 -25%) Saxon Land	250 250/1(-25%)	(18) Saxon Land 250/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Once-raced maiden. 150/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 14 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, soft) on NH debut 13 days ago. Showed some ability on the Flat; last of 14 on her hurdles debut at Punchestown.
14th	6 14th (6) (300/1 -50%) Maxwell Smart	300 300/1(-50%)	(6) Maxwell Smart 300/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. 12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f) 51 days ago. Opposable on hurdles debut. Modest Flat performer and hard to make a case for on his hurdles debut.
15th	1 15th (1) (16/1 -14%) Babich	16 16/1(-14%)	(1) Babich 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 2/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, respectable second of 8 in maiden at Dundalk (12f) 12 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. More needed here and likely to fare better in handicaps in the near future.
13	13 \|PU\| (13) (250/1 -67%) Accompanist	250 250/1(-67%)	(13) Accompanist 250/1, Making GB/IRE jumps debut. Eleventh of 12 in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, heavy, 33/1) on debut, very slowly away. Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving J. A. Stack. Hooded for 1st time. Hooded here for his stable and hurdles debut; best watched.

CHARLUS was a smart Flat performer for Jean-Claude Rouget in France and debuts for top connections having been bought for E315,000 last July. A debut winner in December 2023, his three runs last year were fine efforts and finished second on, heavy ground, at Listed level in Bordeaux last May. He has a noteworthy Triumph Hurdle entry and will know his job on jumps debut. Holy See, who finished fourth at Listed-level on the Flat, showed ability on his hurdles debut at Limerick over Christmas but is vulnerable to smart types. Young Churchill, by the same sire as the selection, also ran well on his hurdling debut last month and has obvious place claims.

CHARLUS, a winner of three of his four starts on the Flat in France, is an exciting recruit to this sphere for the Willie Mullins yard and will surely prove very hard to beat, provided he takes to hurdles at the first attempt. Young Churchill shaped well on his hurdles debut and he gets the nod for forecast purposes ahead of Holy See and San Hilario.

They might all be taking on a good horse in expensive French purchase CHARLUS and he gets the vote

13:30 Naas Maiden Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:00 Naas Conditions Hurdle 16f - 3 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (1/10 +40%) Anzadam	0.1 1/10(+40%)	(2) Anzadam 1/10, Promising sort. First run since leaving A. Chaille-Chaille when won 7-runner Mullinan Hurdle (5/2) at Fairyhouse (16f, good) on IRE NH debut 57 days ago by 6½ lengths from Kala Conti, impressively. Exciting prospect. Seen as a possible Champion Hurdle dark horse and should confirm that impression here.
2	1 2nd (1) (16/1 -33%) Beacon Edge	16 16/1(-33%)	(1) Beacon Edge 16/1, Very smart chaser. 14/1, 28¾ lengths seventh of 8 to Home By The Lee in Christmas Hurdle at Leopardstown (23.4f, good) 29 days ago. Significantly down in trip and blinkers back on. Tough ask to give weight to a pair of good young horses over this trip.
3	3 3rd (3) (15/2 -7%) Laafi	7.5 15/2(-7%)	(3) Laafi 15/2, Useful winner at 10f on the Flat. First run since leaving William Haggas when winning 18-runner novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) on NH debut 31 days ago. Open to improvement. Supreme entry looks a nice prospect and gets 7lb from Anzadam but unlikely to beat him..

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

ANZADAM retains next weekend's Irish Champion Hurdle entry but connections appear to be keeping a lid on the keen-goer for the time being. He raced twice over hurdles in France in 2023, shedding his maiden tag at Compiegne, and returned following 411 days off to win a Grade 3 hurdle in November. He wears a hood and needs to learn to settle but is smart. Veteran Beacon Edge ran well in December's Hatton's Grace and drops from Grade 1 company but hasn't run at this distance since January 2021 and will be outpaced by the selection. Laafi, once rated 98 on the Flat, scored on jumps debut but that recent form isn't outstanding and he steps up markedly in grade.

It's very difficult to look beyond ANZADAM, who was 2-2 for previous connections in France and duly maintained his unbeaten record when impressively dispatching with market leader Kala Conti in a Grade 3 at Fairyhouse on debut for Willie Mullins. The sky could be the limit for this hugely promising 5-y-o. Laafi made the perfect start to his hurdles career at Limerick and he is taken to edge our Beacon Edge in the race for second-place prizemoney.

This should be all about Fairyhouse winner ANZADAM who can underline his growing Champion Hurdle prospects

14:30 Naas Novices Chase 25f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (8/11 -27%) Dancing City	0.727273 8/11(-27%)	(2) Dancing City 8/11, Promising individual. Smart winner at 25f over hurdles. 2/5, career best when winning 9-runner minor event chase at Punchestown (23.3f, soft) on debut over fences 47 days ago. The one to beat. More to come from him and this is a proper test on his second run over fences.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +13%) Bioluminescence	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(1) Bioluminescence 7/2, Highly promising individual. Career best when winning 7-runner Gr 2 chase at Limerick (22.6f, soft, 4/5) on debut over fences 30 days ago by 3 lengths from Paggane, readily. Good prospect. Impressive at Limerick; step up in trip will suit and she looks certain to improve further.
3	4 3rd (4) (4/1 +60%) Good Land	4 4/1(+60%)	(4) Good Land 4/1, Smart hurdler. Smart winner at 22f over hurdles. 15½ lengths fourth of 7 to Impaire Et Passe in Faugheen Novices' Chase (12/1) at Limerick (19.4f, soft) 29 days ago. Up in trip. Respectable in two runs over fences; yet to tackle 3m and may find at least one too good.
4	3 4th (3) (17/2 -31%) Dee Capo	8.5 17/2(-31%)	(3) Dee Capo 17/2, Useful chaser. 15/2, career best when winning 7-runner novice chase at Leopardstown (21.3f, good to soft) 29 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Should give another good account. Has it to prove over this trip and interesting to see how he copes with the rise in class.
5th	5 5th (5) (250/1 +0%) Fire Force	250 250/1(+0%)	(5) Fire Force 250/1, Poor hurdler. Blinkered for 1st time, pulled up in novice chase at Cork (20f, soft, 100/1) on debut over fences 9 days ago, pulled up 3 out. Up in trip and cheekpieces on for 1st time. Hunting some black type here but looks hopelessly out of her depth; new headgear tried.

Three from four in Grade 1 novice hurdles last year, the talented DANCING CITY picked up from where he left off when making a successful chasing debut at Punchestown last month. Willie Mullins' gelding is sure to have learnt plenty for that initial experience and, given that this step up in trip promises to suit, he can go in again and cement his place as a contender for the Brown Advisory. Recent Grade 2 winner Bioluminescence is the obvious threat, but she will have no easy task conceding weight, albeit only 1lb. Dee Capo can chase the pair home.

DANCING CITY was one of last season's leading novice hurdlers and looks set to take high rank in this sphere, too, judged on his chase debut success at Punchestown where, save for a blip at the third-last, he delivered an assured round of jumping. He shades preference ahead of another highly promising recruit in Bioluminescence, while Dee Capo is also entitled to respect.

This should go to DANCING CITY, a three-time Grade 1 winning novice hurdler who should come on plenty for his win at Punchestown

15:00 Naas Maiden Hurdle 19f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (9/2 +18%) Ballybow	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(2) Ballybow 9/2, Promising sort. 1 win from 3 runs this season. Second of 15 in novice hurdle (10/3) at Down Royal (20.1f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Solid claims. Second at Down Royal since finishing lame in Fairyhouse race contested by A Dream To Share.
2	8 2nd (8) (7/4 +50%) Kalix Delabarriere	1.75 7/4(+50%)	(8) Kalix Delabarriere 7/4, Highly promising type. 10/3, fourth of 12 in minor event hurdle at Leopardstown (19.8f, good) on hurdles bow 29 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Should significantly improve. Was 14l behind third-placed Krak at Leopardstown after making a bad mistake three out.
3	9 3rd (9) (10/3 +0%) Krak	3.333333 10/3(+0%)	(9) Krak 10/3, Promising type. Third of 12 in minor event hurdle at Leopardstown (19.8f, good, 25/1) on NH debut 29 days ago, not knocked about. Should progress. Excellent first effort at Leopardstown 14l in front of fourth-placed Kalix Delabarriere.
4	1 4th (1) (9/4 +0%) A Dream To Share	2.25 9/4(+0%)	(1) A Dream To Share 9/4, Promising type. Smart winner at 16f in bumpers. Fifth of 25 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good, 4/1) on hurdles bow 57 days ago. Open to improvement. Top-class in bumpers, three Grade 1 wins in 2023, likely to step up from hurdling debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (40/1 -21%) He's Gorgeous	40 40/1(-21%)	(5) He's Gorgeous 40/1, Fair hurdler. 11/1, good fourth of 15 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (20.1f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Bumper form was ordinary, better over hurdles, held by Ballybow on Down Royal form.
6th	12 6th (12) (150/1 -355%) Gino Bella	150 150/1(-355%)	(12) Gino Bella 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden under Rules. Unseated rider in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (18.4f, good to soft, 33/1) 15 days ago. Placed twice, made mistakes and out of contention when unseating at the last at Fairyhouse.
7th	7 7th (7) (33/1 -50%) Ivybrook	33 33/1(-50%)	(7) Ivybrook 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Below form ninth of 15 in novice hurdle (3/1) at Down Royal (20.1f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Not far off A Dream To Share at Fairyhouse, Down Royal run too bad to be true.
8th	4 8th (4) (250/1 -67%) Comanche Magic	250 250/1(-67%)	(4) Comanche Magic 250/1, Once-raced maiden. 22/1, tenth of 14 in bumper at Down Royal (17.2f, good to soft) on NH debut 31 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Tailed off in a bumper at Down Royal last month, safe to leave out of calculations.
9th	10 9th (10) (150/1 -200%) Welcome Aboard	150 150/1(-200%)	(10) Welcome Aboard 150/1, €56,000 3-y-o, Mahler gelding. Dam, ran twice in bumpers, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stays 2¾m) College Oak. Wears tongue strap. Interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting. Second foal dam well held in bumpers, from the family of Best Mate.
10th	6 10th (6) (40/1 -186%) High Court Cave	40 40/1(-186%)	(6) High Court Cave 40/1, Twice-raced winner in bumpers. 2/1, won 7-runner bumper at Sligo (18.5f, soft) 158 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Makes hurdles debut. Point winner and comfortable winner of a Sligo bumper in August, lacks a recent run.
11th	14 11th (14) (250/1 -25%) Run For Cover	250 250/1(-25%)	(14) Run For Cover 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 17 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft, 80/1) 29 days ago. Soundly beaten in mid-field on both starts; will need to get a handicap mark, hooded.
12th	11 12th (11) (250/1 -25%) Fortunate Outcome	250 250/1(-25%)	(11) Fortunate Outcome 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 14 in novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, soft, 250/1) 28 days ago. Huge price when down the field in maidens at Tramore and Limerick, can be ruled out.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (33/1 +34%) Bounce Of The Ball	33 33/1(+34%)	(3) Bounce Of The Ball 33/1, €85,000 3-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam, dual bumper winner, half-sister to fair hurdler (stayed 2½m) Tiger Trek. Wears tongue strap. Watch the betting for clues. Cost 85,000 euros at three; first foal dam dual bumper winner, wears tongue-tie on debut.
13	13 \|PU\| (13) (300/1 -50%) Romantic Getaway	300 300/1(-50%)	(13) Romantic Getaway 300/1, Getaway mare. Dam poor chaser (2¾m winner). Probably best watched on debut. First foal, dam 2m5f chase winner, no appeal on belated debut at the age of eight.

Former top bumper performer A DREAM TO SHARE showed promise on jumps debut in November and might now gain a belated hurdle success. Initially unbeaten in five bumpers in 2022/23, injury interrupted last year's campaign but he shaped nicely on hurdling debut in November, with that form appearing quite strong in the context of today's winnable maiden. Returning from another break isn't ideal but he should progress from November. Krak showed promise at Leopardstown over Christmas, finishing nicely ahead of Kalix Delabarriere (which made mistakes), and should improve. Ballybow returned lame when finishing behind the selection in November and while he subsequently ran well over Christmas, should struggle to win.

KRAK looks the way to go on the back of a highly encouraging debut third in what looked a decent Leopardstown during the Christmas period. He may have most to fear from smart bumper performer A Dream To Share, who should come on for this first spin over hurdles at Fairyhouse in November. Ballybow left his hurdling bow behind when runner-up at Down Royal and is also shortlisted, along with the Willie Mullins-trained Kalix Delabarriere.

There are possible doubts about former bumper star A DREAM TO SHARE but he may prove equal to this task on his second hurdles attempt

Stable having good spell. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Has work to do. Engaged 2.13 Fairyhouse Saturday. Addition of a tongue-tie seemed to work last time, useful 5lb claimed for handicap debut.
1	1 1st (1) (9/2 +36%) Cave Court	4.5 9/2(+36%)	(1) Cave Court 9/2, Latest win in hurdle at Ballinrobe in July. 14/1, good second of 23 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (19.8f, good) 29 days ago, closing all way to line. Solid each-way chance. Excellent effort when second at Leopardstown, up 4lb but remains 5lb lower than chase mark.
2	4 2nd (4) (4/1 +33%) Hartur D'arc	4 4/1(+33%)	(4) Hartur D'arc 4/1, 50/1, fell in handicap chase at Leopardstown (24.4f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles and down in trip. Others more persuasive. Two chase wins last year, potentially well treated but may need this to restore confidence.
3	10 3rd (10) (13/2 -8%) Must Go Now	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(10) Must Go Now 13/2, Career best when winning 20-runner handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, soft, 10/1) 25 days ago by 5 lengths from Tyson, forging clear. Not taken lightly. Has taken a while to mature, stepped up on previous form with 5l Fairyhouse win, up 10lb.
4	12 4th (12) (14/1 +30%) Marelly	14 14/1(+30%)	(12) Marelly 14/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 50/1, third of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19f, heavy) 26 days ago. Out for form over fences, much better when 50-1 third in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown.
5th	2 5th (2) (15/2 -25%) One Big Boum	7.5 15/2(-25%)	(2) One Big Boum 15/2, 2 wins from 6 runs this season. 11/2, career best when winning 18-runner handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, soft) 49 days ago, always holding on. More will be needed up 8 lb if he's to complete the hat-trick. Mark was unchanged after maiden win, now up 8lb after handicap success, progressive type.
6th	14 6th (14) (11/1 +0%) Gabriel Ranger	11 11/1(+0%)	(14) Gabriel Ranger 11/1, 10/3, third of 11 in novice chase at Tramore (15.5f, heavy) on debut over fences 25 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Back up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Won off 7lb lower last August, placed over fences since fair hurdles run at Punchestown.
7th	16 7th (16) (9/2 +40%) Tyson	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(16) Tyson 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1, very good 5 lengths second of 20 to Must Go Now in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, soft) 25 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Can make presence felt. Readily outpointed by today's rival Must Go Now at Fairyhouse, 7lb better off now.
8th	13 8th (13) (100/1 -100%) Showman	100 100/1(-100%)	(13) Showman 100/1, Fifteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle (40/1) at Punchestown (19.4f, soft) 64 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Down the field at Punchestown in November on first run for ten months, hard to fancy.
9th	17 9th (17) (33/1 +0%) Cozone	33 33/1(+0%)	(17) Cozone 33/1, Fourteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Punchestown (20.6f, heavy) 14 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Has lost form since placed twice in the first half of November, up against it.
10th	9 10th (9) (80/1 -400%) Ishan	80 80/1(-400%)	(9) Ishan 80/1, Below form sixth of 12 in handicap chase (6/1) at Tramore (22.8f, heavy) 25 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. In good form over hurdles in the final months of 2023, two poor chase runs this season.
11th	7 11th (7) (14/1 +0%) Lygon Lad	14 14/1(+0%)	(7) Lygon Lad 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, fifteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, good) 31 days ago. Yard having good spell. Second to a well-handicapped horse at Navan, disappointing run in the fog at Leopardstown.
12th	5 12th (5) (28/1 -12%) Answering	28 28/1(-12%)	(5) Answering 28/1, 11/1, thirteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (16.1f, good) 36 days ago and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Fair handicap debut here last April, three subsequent runs have been much less encouraging.
13th	8 13th (8) (10/1 -43%) Interchangeable	10 10/1(-43%)	(8) Interchangeable 10/1, 11/2, didn't need to be at best when winning 14-runner novice hurdle at this course (19.5f, good to soft) 41 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut and he needs considering. Kept good company in maidens before winning when dropped in class at this venue, respected.
14th	15 14th (15) (25/1 +24%) Ask The Bookie	25 25/1(+24%)	(15) Ask The Bookie 25/1, 20/1, respectable third of 8 in novice hurdle at Limerick (19f, soft) 28 days ago. Must improve. Not a bad run in a Limerick novice race last time, overall profile is unconvincing.

MUST GO NOW gained a belated first win in an easy manner on New Year's Day and can follow up from 10lb higher. Lightly-raced and inconsistent prior to his Fairyhouse win, that form is working out well with the third-placed horse scoring subsequently and the selection should now progress. Cave Court is ground-versatile and is suited by this distance but is now 4lb higher that when finishing second at Leopardstown over Christmas. One Big Boum is 8lb higher than when winning at Cork last month but is progressive while Interchangeable narrowly won an unplaced maiden last month and steps up in grade. Hartur d'Arc has a higher chase rating but today's race, over an inadequate distance, will help his confidence.

Several to consider with CAVE COURT topping the shortlist on the back of an improved effort in a big-field handicap at Leopardstown where he put in good late work to finish second. The Nagger Reidy will be a serious threat if able to get his act together jumping-wise, while last-time-out winners Must Go Now and Interchangeable also enter calculations.

Oran McGill takes a valuable 7lb off CAVE COURT (nap). He is preferred to Must Go Now, up 10lb for an emphati fairyhouse win

16:05 Naas NH Flat Race 19f - 13 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
4	4 (4) (16/1 0%) I'll Sort That	16 16/1(0%)	(4) I'll Sort That 16/1, Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 19 in novice hurdle at Cork (16.2f, soft, 100/1) on NH debut 44 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Engaged 3.57 Fairyhouse Saturday. Non runner, not qualified.
1	3 1st (3) (8/1 +11%) Champagne Jury	8 8/1(+11%)	(3) Champagne Jury 8/1, €37,000 3-y-o, Jukebox Jury gelding. Half-brother to modest 17f chase winner Braveheart. Trainer going well. Runner-up on his completed start between the flags. Wears tongue strap for this Rules debut. Beaten 10l in a maiden at Boulta in November, in-form trainer fits a tongue-tie.
2	8 2nd (8) (28/1 -12%) The Night Agent	28 28/1(-12%)	(8) The Night Agent 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 13 in bumper (12/1) at Limerick (18f, soft) 29 days ago. That run was probably needed on the back of a 14-month absence and he's interesting in light of his debut promise. Satisfactory run on only 2023 outing, remote eighth at Limerick last month after layoff.
3	5 3rd (5) (13/2 +35%) Jericho Du Fenoir	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(5) Jericho Du Fenoir 13/2, €65,000 3-y-o, Petillo gelding. Half-brother to top-class 2m hurdler Espoir d'Allen. Dam unraced half-sister to French chaser (17f-2½m winner) Mikador. One to note in the betting. Newcomer deserves respect as a half-brother to Champion Hurdle winner Espoir D'Allen.
4	1 4th (1) (4/5 +36%) Adiemus	0.8 4/5(+36%)	(1) Adiemus 4/5, €50,000 3-y-o, Guiliani gelding. Dam, French hurdler/chase winner (17f/2¼m winner), half-sister to fair hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 21f) Amoola Gold. Confidence behind this likely-looking newcomer would be an ominous sign for his rivals. Cheltenham winner Jasmin De Vaux made winning debut for the stable here 12 months ago.
5th	11 5th (11) (33/1 0%) Joshua's Daylami	33 33/1(0%)	(11) Joshua's Daylami 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 25/1, fourth of 16 in bumper at Punchestown (18.4f, heavy) 26 days ago. Fourth in a Punchestown mares' event on latest, others have much stronger claims.
6th	2 6th (2) (9/2 +10%) American Jukebox	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(2) American Jukebox 9/2, Twice-raced maiden. Second of 9 in bumper (7/1) at Leopardstown (20f, good) 30 days ago. Should continue to give a good account. Form of Leopardstown second is not particularly convincing, obvious chance all the same.
7th	9 7th (9) (66/1 -65%) Danielle D	66 66/1(-65%)	(9) Danielle D 66/1, Once-raced maiden. 50/1, sixth of 15 in bumper at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) on NH debut. Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving T. Hogan. Respectable run last May on only start for Tom Hogan, new yard, same leading amateur rides.
8th	6 8th (6) (20/1 +0%) Matter Of Opinion	20 20/1(+0%)	(6) Matter Of Opinion 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Creditable fifth of 9 in bumper at Leopardstown (20f, good, 33/1) 30 days ago. More needed. Has run well for this rider several times, held by American Jukebox on Leopardstown form.
9th	12 9th (12) (11/1 +8%) Meetmeinstlouis	11 11/1(+8%)	(12) Meetmeinstlouis 11/1, Twice-raced maiden under Rules. Fourth of 9 in bumper at Leopardstown (20f, good, 40/1) on bumper debut 30 days ago. Sister to Ballyburn and five other winners, 5l behind American Jukebox at Leopardstown.
10th	13 10th (13) (28/1 -75%) Sea Of Doubt	28 28/1(-75%)	(13) Sea Of Doubt 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, first run since leaving R. P. Rath when good fourth of 11 in bumper at this course (16f, good to soft, 10/1) 77 days ago, having run of race. Faded into fourth behind the promising Carrigmoornaspruce at this venue after making most.
11th	10 11th (10) (250/1 -67%) Ginny Weasley	250 250/1(-67%)	(10) Ginny Weasley 250/1, Once-raced maiden. 150/1, eighteenth of 19 in bumper at Punchestown (18.8f, heavy) on NH debut. Off 8 months. Pulled up in a point-to-point last February, tailed off in a Punchestown festival bumper.
14	14 \|PU\| (14) (200/1 -300%) Taken Time	200 200/1(-300%)	(14) Taken Time 200/1, Casamento mare. Half-sister to useful 19f-2½m hurdle winner Bugise Seagull, stays 3m. Wears tongue strap. Probably best watched on debut. Half-sister to Charlie Longsdon's useful hurdles winner Bugise Seagull, tongue-tie in.

ADIEMUS debuts for Willie Mullins, having been bought by the trainer as a store for E50,000 in June 2023. Out of a well-related hurdle-and-chase-winning French mare, he debuts at a notable time of year. American Jukebox conceded 5lb to the Leopardstown winner (Meetmeinstlouis finished fourth, Matter Of Opinion fifth) over Christmas and while today's rider claims 7lb and he seems to stay quite well, is vulnerable to smart types. Champagne Jury was beaten by a subsequent hurdle winner at Boulta in November and has since joined Gavin Cromwell. Jericho Du Fenoir is a half-brother to Champion Hurdle winner Espoir D'Allen and cost E65,000 as a three-year-old and while he makes a belated debut, encouragingly does so in a bumper.

If the market speaks in his favour, ADIEMUS will be of strong interest given his appealing pedigree and the powerful yard that he represents. This drop in trip is of dubious benefit for American Jukebox, who again shaped like a stayer when runner-up over 2½m at Leopardstown. Still, he is respected nonetheless and is feared most ahead of The Night Agent. Newcomer Jericho Du Fenoir needs a market check and Champagne Jury, second on his completed start in maiden points, is worth considering, too.

A speculative vote goes to JERICHO DU FENOIR, a half-brother to Champion Hurdle winner Espoir D'Allen who won his first five races.

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.
