Recent Curragh runner-up CHANDIGAH can get off the mark at the third time of asking. The Darren Bunyan-trained colt started off over 7f but appeared more suited to being dropped back in trip last time. He has another furlong less to travel now but given the stiff nature of this track, it could prove ideal for the son of Churchill. Kieran Cotter has had a few juvenile winners already this term and Ocean Baroque looks capable of getting involved. The Caravaggio gelding has shaped well on all three starts, including over course and distance last time. West Of Wichita ran her best race to date when dropped back to this trip at Bellewstown earlier this month. A reproduction would see the Kevin Coleman-trained filly go close.

CHANDIGAH tooked a marked step forward from his debut when runner-up to a promising sort at the Curragh recently and probably won't need to improve again to go one better. West of Wichita and Clonmacash look the chief dangers.

Darren Bunyan has four runners here and can collect with CHANDIGAH whose 66-1 second of 18 at the Curragh was a very pleasing effort

LITTLE QUEENIE showed her appreciation for the step back into handicap company when regaining the winning thread at Naas last week. She has been raised 6lb but has been competitive off this sort of mark in the past and can complete a quickfire double. Collective Power was a winner here last month and the hike he received for that comfortable success is more than offset by his capable apprentice jockey taking over in the saddle. Greek Flower has run well in a couple of much better contests on her last two starts, so the John Feane-trained filly will appreciate this easier grade. She also wears first-time cheekpieces in her bid to gain the first win of her career.

ARNHEIM made a very pleasing start for his new yard when third at Down Royal 3 weeks ago and fancied to build on that, he could be the answer to this tricky puzzle. Inishmot Prince is likely to be staying on kept to 5f, with Nordic Passage another to consider.

It may pay to take a chance on PRETTY SMART who is 12lb below last season's highest mark and has hinted at a return to form

PARADISE PERFECT needs to put a disappointing effort on recent handicap debut behind him but if doing so, the Willie Browne-trained colt can finally lose his maiden tag. Prior to that latest below-par run, the son of Perfect Timber had been placed in four maidens in succession. With nothing out of the ordinary amongst those with racecourse form, his biggest danger may well come from a debutant. Andy Oliver is well adept at readying one for its first run so, almost by default, his Smooth Sky is put forward as a live contender. The fact the son of Smooth Daddy is already gelded and wears first-time cheekpieces tempers confidence somewhat. The four-year-old Wooden Head shaped well enough on his belated debut at Cork to suggest he has a future.

There should be more to come from WOODEN HEAD, who is from an excellent family and showed ability on her debut at Cork in May. Paradise Perfect and Freedom Falls look the likeliest dangers.

If forgiven a dismal run on his handicap debut at the Curragh, PARADISE PERFECT has credentials for minor success based on maiden form

KNOCKMORE PRINCE has to be forgiven a modest run at the Curragh when last seen but on the balance of his earlier form, the Noel Meade-trained gelding has every chance. The bare form of his three runner-up finishes at Dundalk over the winter have been well advertised in the interim and he may not have enjoyed heavy ground on his first two turf starts since. Top-weight Parting Glass was rated 75 when winning his maiden here in May and the Fozzy Stack-trained colt can now race off 7lb lower once taking his rider's claim into account. American In Paris also catches the eye back in with her own age group having finished second against older horses at Naas recently. She, too, has the services of a promising young apprentice.

This looks wide open but PARTING GLASS ought to find this much less demanding than his latest assignment at Tipperary 10 days ago and with his rider taking off a handy 7 lb, it would come as no surprise to see him go well returned to handicap company. The Snapper, Havana Notion and Distillate head up the dangers.

Adam Caffrey takes a valuable 5lb off DISTILLATE who may confirm Down Royal form with Spirit Of Eagles and Havana Notion

HARBOUR WIND runs in first-time cheekpieces, which is a small concern, but has solid form. Out of a half-sister to Group 2-winning stayer Forgotten Rules, he was a surprise winner when making all against a better-fancied stablemate on debut but confirmed that ability when runner-up at Roscommon. The winner recently finished sixth in the German Derby and this galloping track should suit. Immutable's form is mostly on easy ground but he ran well on a sound surface on debut. He steps up in trip, though, on his first run for 82 days. Dutch Gold benefited from stepping up to this trip when winning impressively at Down Royal and while the form is nothing special, he could progress further. Nurburgring is top rated, ran well in a course Listed race in May, and while today's rider claims 7lb, was well beaten at Royal Ascot and drops markedly in distance. Endless Sunshine was a surprise winner on debut and faces a tougher task.

Despite still looking rough very rough around the edges, BRIGHT LEGEND was impressive when seeing off a now useful performer (the pair clear) at the Curragh back in April and, with the prospect of more to come, he gets the vote to follow up. Harbour Wind and Nurburgring back in calmer waters are others fancied to be in the shake up.

Second to the German Derby sixth at Roscommon, HARBOUR WIND will be hard to beat and headgear is usually a positive when used by Weld\p

HASTEN SLOWLY is 5lb higher than when winning recently and while speedily-bred, could be suited by stepping up to this distance. That Naas form is nothing outstanding but she won over 7f as a juvenile last August, which suggests she will stay middle-distances. Bringsty brings useful recent claimer form to the table and and is suited by this trip. Available, but unwanted, for 10,000 euros, 12,000 euros, 12,000 euros and 12,000 euros when running consistently well on each of his last four runs, he chased home a subsequent winner at Limerick last month and is today ridden by a good 2lb claimer. Keen-going Boher Road was well enough held in a premier handicap last month, while Mads Black Eights is capable at this level but hasn't run since February. Scott Lang would prefer further, while Eskimo Komet's rating has been affected by running well in stakes races last autumn and has plenty of weight.

HASTEN SLOWLY arrives on the back of an improved Naas success and can defy a 5 lb rise in the weights with this longer trip another plus. Bellewstown runner-up Bringsty is feared most, although Boher Road and Scott Lang are weighted to have a say too in an open handicap.

Naas winner Hasten Slowly is sure to be popular but BOHER ROAD, not beaten far in a higher grade at Cork last time, is preferred

ST CIANANS FIRE has poor form figures but will be better suited by this distance than when a staying-on also-ran at Leopardstown in May. A three-time winner, his rating has recently slipped but he remains a fraction unexposed at this ordinary level. Qasbaz has been running well and finished ahead of Joven De Corazon and Tara Power at Bellewstown. He hasn't won for two years but has been running consistently well recently. Joven De Corazon has some form but might prefer slightly further, while Tara Power has yet to win in 18 turf attempts. The three-year-old Glyde Ranger has place claims, while Jalo is tried in a first-time tongue-tie.

Little between the principals on form so the reliable QASBAZ is taken to gain a deserved success on the back of his good Bellewstown third. Joven de Corazon and Glyde Ranger appeal as the duo to give James McAuley's 6-y-o most to do and can chase him home in that order.

The draw hasn't been kind to QAZBAZ but he's been running well enough of late to suggest that he may be able to overcome that drawback

STAY LOCAL met some trouble at Limerick last month and could be suited by this distance. She showed useful soft-ground handicap form last year and being by Australia and out of a well-related Lope De Vega mare, should stay. Barretstown is winless in 20 turf starts but is a dual Dundalk winner who likes this distance and ran well recently at Down Royal. Shining Aitch is held by Barretstown on April all-weather form but has been running well recently and has place claims. Maura's Gift would prefer slightly further and hasn't run since January, while Blackstone Cliff debuts for a new yard but hasn't run since winning in December. Rockview Roman was well held on two recent runs - the latest being over hurdles - but won in April and is ground-versatile. Gudrun Genberg's best run came here last October.

BARRETSTOWN is creeping back down the weights again and can take advantage. Shining Aitch and Stay Local head the dangers.

Having gone well for Dylan Browne McMonagle in 2 prior outings over C&D, SHINING AITCH may be capable of landing a first win in Ireland

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.
