Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (8/15 +7%) Leader D'allier	0.533333 8/15(+7%)	(7) Leader D'allier 8/15, Made a fair debut when second, beaten 9 1/2l, in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown last time. Trainer is in form, effective at 2m on yielding ground, and should improve plenty for a top yard. Unbeaten in French bumpers; no match for Ballyfad on stable debut; can make amends.
2	10 2nd (10) (3/1 +10%) Straight John	3 3/1(+10%)	(10) Straight John 3/1, Made a promising debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown. Tongue-tie is applied for the first time, has been effective at 2m with cut, and should improve for a top yard. Not disgraced on debut at Leopardstown; can get involved with normal improvement.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 +9%) Laxxio	10 10/1(+9%)	(6) Laxxio 10/1, Showed a big improvement when fourth, beaten 25l, in a maiden hurdle here last time. Effective at around 2m1f with cut in the ground and there may be more to come. Faller on debut when well beaten in race Leader d'Allier was runner-up; 25l 4th last time.
4	14 4th (14) (50/1 -100%) Cherry Pink	50 50/1(-100%)	(14) Cherry Pink 50/1, Bit below form when beaten 4l in a handicap at Dundalk last time. Effective up to 11f on the Flat, but looks difficult to fancy on her hurdles debut. Five-time Flat winner is rated 64 in that sphere; others preferred.
5th	2 5th (2) (18/1 -29%) Cloudio	18 18/1(-29%)	(2) Cloudio 18/1, Below form when finishing down the field in a bumper at Fairyhouse last time. Returns from a short break and has been effective at around 2m3f, so may do better now switching to hurdles. Point winner (runner-up won subsequently); second on bumper debut but tailed off latest.
6th	3 6th (3) (16/1 +60%) Eyetrap	16 16/1(+60%)	(3) Eyetrap 16/1, Below form and did not stay when finishing down the field in a handicap at Dundalk most recently. Effective at 2m and has handled heavy ground, with the type to do better when handicapping. Record of 2-7 on Flat; well beaten in m'den hurdles and on AW latest; more time needed.
7th	1 7th (1) (200/1 +20%) Boston Fire	200 200/1(+20%)	(1) Boston Fire 200/1, No worthwhile form to date and has plenty to prove for now. All recent efforts have been modest and he looks up against it at this stage, with low-grade handicaps likely to be more suitable in time. Failed to complete two points; same story on Rules bow; SU last time when always behind.
8th	11 8th (11) (200/1 -100%) Woodie Campelltown	200 200/1(-100%)	(11) Woodie Campelltown 200/1, Made a poor rules debut when finishing down the field in a bumper at Wexford last time. Has been effective at 3m in points, but a fair bit of improvement is needed here. Runner-up in only completed point; tailed off on Rules bow; unlikely..
9th	16 9th (16) (200/1 -203%) Sylkie	200 200/1(-203%)	(16) Sylkie 200/1, Never involved from off the pace when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork last time. Looks the type to do better once switched to handicaps. Three-time winner on Flat at Galway; tailed off on hurdles debut latest.
10th	4 10th (4) (50/1 -25%) Fulminis Instar	50 50/1(-25%)	(4) Fulminis Instar 50/1, Pulled up in a maiden at Dromahane on his latest start and returns from a long absence. Faces a stiff task on his rules debut and will need to show marked improvement. Still in contention on point debut when falling but PU on better ground next time; watch.
11th	13 11th (13) (125/1 -89%) Banphrionsa Alainn	125 125/1(-89%)	(13) Banphrionsa Alainn 125/1, Pether's Moon mare; half-sister to Grove Ash, moderate at 19f; not an easy one to fancy on debut. Half-sister to two winners; can improve for this debut.
12th	15 12th (15) (200/1 +20%) Question Asked	200 200/1(+20%)	(15) Question Asked 200/1, Ran poorly when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel on her only start so far. Needs to show much more and may require this run. Sent off 100-1 for hurdles debut 18 days ago and ran like it; hard to recommend.
13th	12 13th (12) (200/1 +0%) Zarushio	200 200/1(+0%)	(12) Zarushio 200/1, Made a moderate debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse. That was his only start so far and he may need more time before showing his best form. Tailed off on debut at Fairyhouse at 200-1; ruled out.
14th	5 14th (5) (200/1 +20%) Jetstream Jeff	200 200/1(+20%)	(5) Jetstream Jeff 200/1, Has shown no worthwhile form so far and there is plenty to prove on what he has achieved. Likely to need more time and may be better suited to handicaps further down the line. Failed to complete opening points and tailed off on hurdling debut; unlikely..

LEADER D'ALLIER won five bumpers in France and was sent off a warm favourite on his hurdle debut at the Leopardstown Christmas meeting when beating all bar Ballyfad with Straight John over four lengths behind in sixth. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding should benefit from that experience and can go one better. The latter was making his racecourse debut on that occasion and is entitled to improve from that display. Maxfort made a pleasing start to his career when placed behind the selection's stablemate The Reverend at Cork earlier this month, while point-to-point winner Cloudio was second in a strong Cork bumper last spring and is an interesting recruit to hurdles.

LEADER D'ALLIER was a three-time French bumper winner and can gain his first win on Irish soil following a second on hurdles debut

13:40 Punchestown 16f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (8/1 +50%) Sopelana	8 8/1(+50%)	(4) Sopelana 8/1, Ran to form when well beaten in the QuinnBet Handicap Hurdle (Listed) at Limerick on her latest start. Effective at 2m on heavy and good ground, and in fair form over hurdles. C&D winner, out of depth twice since, this easier but more needed in new headgear combo.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/4 +9%) Bibe Mus	1.25 5/4(+9%)	(1) Bibe Mus 5/4, Yard has won last two runnings of race; ran to form when second beaten 5l in Wirral Juvenile Hurdle (Listed) at Aintree latest; effective at 2m, acts on S; chance in this. Gowran maiden winner, runner up in Aintree listed juvenile latest, respected on h'cap bow.
3	6 3rd (6) (12/1 +64%) Rua Mor	12 12/1(+64%)	(6) Rua Mor 12/1, Did not get home when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown on his latest run. Effective at 2m and may do better now he moves into handicap company. Well held in three maidens including one here, likely best watched on handicap debut.
4	7 4th (7) (40/1 -43%) Ahellofaman	40 40/1(-43%)	(7) Ahellofaman 40/1, Ran to form when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork last time. Returns from a short break, is effective around 2m, and may do better now handicapping. Well held in bumper and three maiden hurdles, can only be watched on h'cap debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +54%) Kasper Hauser	5.5 11/2(+54%)	(5) Kasper Hauser 11/2, Poorly placed off steady pace in race dominated from front when beaten 4l off this mark here last time; effective 2m, acts on S and G; good mark on maiden form, worth another chance in handicaps. Not beaten far on handicap debut here latest, this shorter trip a plus, could go well.
6th	3 6th (3) (10/3 -11%) Crooked Path	3.333333 10/3(-11%)	(3) Crooked Path 10/3, Ran to form when second, beaten 9l, in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m with cut in the ground and on good going, and can go well again. Maiden form ties in with Bibe Mus and Kibris, 7lb claimer on for h'cap bow, can't discount.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (8/1 -129%) Kibris	8 8/1(-129%)	(2) Kibris 8/1, Ran to form 14l third in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse most recent run; top course trainer; stays 2m, acts on S and G; likely improver now handicapping. Promise in all three maidens, opening mark looks fair, go well with jockey claiming 5lb.

The familiar colours of Simon Munir and Isaac Souede are doubly represented here and riding arrangements suggest BIBE MUS is preferred of the pair. The Camelot gelding beat Crooked Path in a Gowran maiden in October and has been placed on both outings since, including when runner-up to Lord in an Aintree Listed race. This represents a drop in class and he gets the vote over Kibris, who won a Curragh maiden on debut as a juvenile but is without a win in three outings over hurdles. Kasper Hauser has plenty of jumping experience and is weighted to reverse previous Cork places with Crooked Path.

KASPER HAUSER wasn't beaten that far on handicap debut over 19.5f here two weeks ago and this shorter trip should suit

14:10 Punchestown 19f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (8/11 +20%) Blue Velvet	0.727273 8/11(+20%)	(2) Blue Velvet 8/11, Made a promising hurdles debut when second, beaten 1 1/2l, in a maiden hurdle here last time. Trainer is in form and she is effective at 2m; more to come for a good yard. Beat 133-rated La Conquiere in a bumper and good 2nd behind Espresso Milan last time.
2	16 2nd (16) (9/1 -38%) Torpille Dagrostis	9 9/1(-38%)	(16) Torpille Dagrostis 9/1, Finished below form when well beaten in a mares' bumper at Limerick last time, having been in good form prior. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time and she may do better now hurdling. Placed in point and opening bumpers; questions to answer after well beaten last time.
3	9 3rd (9) (9/4 -13%) Miss Doyenne	2.25 9/4(-13%)	(9) Miss Doyenne 9/4, Improved on switching to hurdles when beaten 3l into third in a maiden hurdle at Down Royal last time. Effective from 2m to 2m4f and is a likeable sort who appeals plenty. Point and bumper winner likely to improve from hurdles debut when fading late; player.
4	12 4th (12) (15/2 -15%) Shadys Lady	7.5 15/2(-15%)	(12) Shadys Lady 15/2, Finished below her bumper level when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas last time. Effective at 2m and is surely better than she showed on hurdles debut. Good bumper form but was 30l behind on hurdles debut last time; capable of better.
5th	18 5th (18) (150/1 +25%) Westandtogether	150 150/1(+25%)	(18) Westandtogether 150/1, Was a no-show from off the pace when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Returns from a short break and may do better when switching to handicaps. Best of maiden runs came here on debut (2m4f), but was 32l behind all the same; unlikely.
6th	3 6th (3) (16/1 +43%) Courtmac Gesture	16 16/1(+43%)	(3) Courtmac Gesture 16/1, Fell in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel on her latest start. Returns from a short break and is effective at 2m; has a chance if none the worse for that fall. Steadily improved RPRS in bumpers but fell on hurdling debut; place chance.
7th	5 7th (5) (250/1 -213%) Forever And A Day	250 250/1(-213%)	(5) Forever And A Day 250/1, Eliot mare; half-sister to Alltalknoaction, moderate at 20f; doesn't appeal too much on debut with the experience likely to be needed. Distant relation to Grand National winner Hedgehunter; unlikely to make immediate impact.
8th	4 8th (4) (14/1 -56%) Doing It In Style	14 14/1(-56%)	(4) Doing It In Style 14/1, Fell in a graduation hurdle here last time. Effective around 2m and looks the type to do better once going handicapping. Some ability in bumpers and positive efforts over hurdles recently; stable back in form.
9th	8 9th (8) (250/1 -67%) Lady Victrix	250 250/1(-67%)	(8) Lady Victrix 250/1, Finished below form when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Down Royal on her most recent start. Has plenty to prove until switching to handicaps. PU and tailed off in three opening maiden runs; plenty to find.
10th	1 10th (1) (40/1 -233%) Auntie Ida	40 40/1(-233%)	(1) Auntie Ida 40/1, Showed some promise on debut when beaten 10l into fourth in a mares' bumper here first time out. Effective at 2m2f and should improve now switching to hurdles. Shaped with promise on bumper debut here and place chance if taking to hurdles first time.
11th	7 11th (7) (100/1 +20%) Lady Aquarelle	100 100/1(+20%)	(7) Lady Aquarelle 100/1, Managed to complete for the first time in a maiden point last time. No worthwhile form to her name and, returning from a short break, faces a tough task on rules debut. Fell on opening two points before beaten 30l last time; that form shouldn't be good enough.
12th	13 12th (13) (150/1 -127%) Starski	150 150/1(-127%)	(13) Starski 150/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse on her latest run. Looks to need more time but is with a good yard. Never better than midfield before PU when saddle slipped on debut (80-1); unlikely.
17	17 \|PU\| (17) (125/1 -150%) Two Seconds	125 125/1(-150%)	(17) Two Seconds 125/1, Ran below her debut level when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Effective at 2m5f but a bounce back is needed. Moderate debut fourth before tailed off latest; others more likely.
14	14 \|PU\| (14) (150/1 -88%) Talas Kera	150 150/1(-88%)	(14) Talas Kera 150/1, Made mistakes, looked green and was outclassed when beaten 25l into third in a mares' hurdle at Fairyhouse last time. Effective around 2m but may have been flattered by that effort. Ordinary form in bumpers and jumped poorly on hurdling debut last time; others more likely.
15	15 \|PU\| (15) (150/1 0%) The Poet's Way	150 150/1(0%)	(15) The Poet's Way 150/1, Poet's Word mare; dam unraced half-sister to useful 2m-2m5f hurdle/chase winner Leanne; doesn't appeal on debut. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 2m-2m5f hurdle/chase winner Leanne; best watched.
11	11 \|PU\| (11) (200/1 0%) Queen O'droad	200 200/1(0%)	(11) Queen O'droad 200/1, Had a poor debut but was hampered when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Limerick on her only start. Likely to need more time. Hard to fancy on back of tailed off finish on debut at Limerick last month.

BLUE VELVET won a Thurles bumper last season and made a pleasing reappearance over hurdles when runner-up to better fancied stablemate Espresso Milan over 2m here last month. The winner has franked the form since and this daughter of Blue Bresil has plenty of scope for improvement. Miss Doyenne has a similar profile to the selection and looks an obvious threat. The point-to-point winner beat Torpille Dagrostis in a Cork bumper last April and was also placed on her hurdles debut last month over 2m4f at Down Royal. Shadys Lady beat Torpille Dagrostis by 10 lengths in a Naas bumper but was soundly beaten on her hurdling bow at the same venue.

There's substance to BLUE VELVET (nap)'s form and he can build on his runner-up finish behind Espresso Milan on hurdles debut to win

Info	Form	Odds
1	5 1st (5) (2/1 +27%) The Passing Wife	2 2/1(+27%)	(5) The Passing Wife 2/1, Had every chance but ran below form when comfortably held in the Future Champions Novice Hurdle (Grade 1) at Leopardstown last time. Had been in good form prior, is effective at 2m, and has a good chance dropping in grade. 3-6 in bumpers, fine run in Grade 2 Royal Bond, leading claims back in maiden company.
2	2 2nd (2) (2/5 +20%) Doctor Du Mesnil	0.4 2/5(+20%)	(2) Doctor Du Mesnil 2/5, Made a promising hurdles debut when second, beaten a nose, in a maiden at Leopardstown latest. The trainer is in form, effective at 2m-2m3f with cut, and a step up in trip should suit. Holds leading claims. Cork bumper winner, beaten a nose on hurdles debut latest, go well if handling ground.
3	3 3rd (3) (28/1 +15%) Haveanothertry	28 28/1(+15%)	(3) Haveanothertry 28/1, Showed some promise on debut when 12l fourth in a bumper at Limerick first time out. Effective at around 2m2f with cut and should do better now starting out over hurdles. Beaten 12.5l in Limerick bumper on debut, more needed to make winning start over timber.
4	1 4th (1) (125/1 +38%) Atlantic Gamble	125 125/1(+38%)	(1) Atlantic Gamble 125/1, Ran to form when well beaten in a maiden hurdle here latest. Effective at 2m with cut in the ground and looks the type to do better when switched to handicaps. Six-time Flat winner, well held both maiden hurdles, qualifies for h'caps after this.

THE PASSING WIFE hails from a yard returning to form and was a smart sort in bumpers, winning three times. The selection has taken well to hurdles this term notably finishing best of all when third to Koktail Brut in the Grade 2 Royal Bond at Fairyhouse. He was soundly beaten in a Grade 1 last time but will appreciate this drop in class and should be suited by the step up in trip. Doctor Du Mesnil impressed when beating Thedeviluno by 11 lengths on debut in a Cork bumper last April and was narrowly denied when switched to hurdles at Leopardstown last month. Springhill Warrior had Atlantic Gamble over 20 lengths behind when second here last time.

This looks a gilt edged opportunity for THE PASSING WIFE to get his head in front

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (2/1 +56%) Spinningayarn	2 2/1(+56%)	(2) Spinningayarn 2/1, Improved to get off the mark when winning a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse by 7 1/2l last time. Effective at 2m–2m4f, acts on heavy and soft ground, and likely has more to offer over hurdles. Beaten by Parnell Street on hurdles debut (heavy); improved to win last time on yielding.
2	5 2nd (5) (3/1 +40%) Parnell Street	3 3/1(+40%)	(5) Parnell Street 3/1, Improved again up in class when an 11l third in a Conditions Hurdle at Limerick on his latest run. Effective at 2m–2m3f, acts on heavy and good ground, and is a progressive sort. Bumper/hurdles winner faced a tough task at Limerick last time; not ruled out.
3	4 3rd (4) (14/1 -133%) Holy See	14 14/1(-133%)	(4) Holy See 14/1, Improved to get off the mark when winning a novice hurdle at Limerick by 1/2l last time. Effective at 2m–2m3f, acts with cut, and there is more to come. Decent runs in defeat over hurdles before scoring last time; thereabouts.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 +38%) Bokamsin	10 10/1(+38%)	(6) Bokamsin 10/1, Bit below form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m, acts on soft ground, and a longer trip may suit. Much better effort in last two m'den hurdle runs, but up against it again.
5th	1 5th (1) (11/8 -10%) I'm Slippy	1.375 11/8(-10%)	(1) I'm Slippy 11/8, Improved from debut when second, beaten 7 1/2l, in the Jack McInerney Memorial Hurdle (Grade 3) at Fairyhouse last time. Comes here off a short break, is effective at 2m and acts on heavy and yielding ground. Distant runner-up behind Supreme contender Talk The Talk latest, longer trip should suit.

I'M SLIPPY won a valuable bumper on debut at last year's Fairyhouse Easter meeting and easily landed the odds when switched to hurdles at Cork in November. The Robert Tyner-trained gelding was no match for Talk The Talk subsequently at Fairyhouse but that form was put in perspective when the winner looked set to follow up in a Grade 1 at Leopardstown only to fall at the last. Point-to-point winner Spinningayarn took a Navan bumper on his Rules debut and made all last time for a decisive victory in a 2m4f Fairyhouse maiden hurdle. Holy See is another to watch out for.

An interesting contest. PARNELL STREET already has a victory over Spinningayarn off level weights and may confirm the form

Info	Form	Odds
1	6 1st (6) (11/8 -10%) Kobalt St Georges	1.375 11/8(-10%)	(6) Kobalt St Georges 11/8, Travelled well and did it cosily when improving again to land a handicap by 2 1/4l off a 6lb higher mark at Clonmel last time. Returns from a short break, effective over 2m–2m4f with cut, and reverts to hurdles off a lower rating. 0-8 over hurdles, two chase wins this season, rated 16lb lower in this sphere, big chance.
2	10 2nd (10) (7/2 +53%) Ellies Rock	3.5 7/2(+53%)	(10) Ellies Rock 7/2, Ran to form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Gowran Park last time. Returns from a short break; effective up to 2m4f and might yet have a bigger effort in her. Beaten 22l when sixth of 19 on debut for this yard, more needed to get her head in front.
3	9 3rd (9) (6/1 +0%) Rebel Cowgirl	6 6/1(+0%)	(9) Rebel Cowgirl 6/1, Produced her best run since 2024 when beaten 3 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Limerick last time. Effective around 2m4f with cut and has a chance if building on that latest effort. 0-12, better run at Limerick latest, place claims at least with a repeat off 1lb higher.
4	7 4th (7) (15/2 -88%) Deanery Charlie	7.5 15/2(-88%)	(7) Deanery Charlie 15/2, The yard won this race last year. Outpaced and with too much to do when ridden to see out the trip, finishing fourth beaten 20l in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse latest; effective over 2m–2m4f with cut and may do better yet. Improved effort on h'cap bow at Fairyhouse, should be in the mix off the same mark.
5th	2 5th (2) (10/1 +38%) Build A Bridge	10 10/1(+38%)	(2) Build A Bridge 10/1, Probably made a bit too much use of when dropped in trip and comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time. Effective over 2m2f–3m, with good ground suiting, and worth another chance in handicaps. Struggled on h'cap debut on heavy, better here latest on yielding, ground a concern.
6th	5 6th (5) (66/1 -164%) Potters Pal	66 66/1(-164%)	(5) Potters Pal 66/1, A no-show from off the pace when finishing down the field in a graduation hurdle here most recently. Tongue-tie is applied for the first time; usually held up and may do better now handicapping. Modest form in points and maiden hurdles, tongue tie on, watch unless market speaks.
7th	3 7th (3) (18/1 -64%) The Dancen Kid	18 18/1(-64%)	(3) The Dancen Kid 18/1, Improved when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Naas most recently. Hood is applied for the first time; usually held up, effective at 2m with cut, and a longer trip looks a plus now handicapping. Soundly beaten in maidens at long odds, hood goes on for h'cap debut, hard to fancy.
8th	4 8th (4) (33/1 -32%) Dearg Mor	33 33/1(-32%)	(4) Dearg Mor 33/1, Below form when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time. Tongue-tie is fitted for the first time; effective at around 2m1f and may do better now moving into handicaps. Huge odds and no impact in maidens, tongue tied for h'cap bow, not easy to make case for.
9th	8 9th (8) (12/1 +14%) Robindevidastar	12 12/1(+14%)	(8) Robindevidastar 12/1, Returned to form when rallying gamely to finish fourth beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Clonmel last time. Effective over 2m–2m4f; an unreliable veteran but now on a workable mark. 3lb below last win in Nov' 2024, handles testing ground, ok run latest, could go well.
10th	1 10th (1) (40/1 -21%) Ossifer Hops	40 40/1(-21%)	(1) Ossifer Hops 40/1, Again below form when comfortably held in a novice chase at Tramore last time. Effective up to 3m with cut, but has proved unreliable and now switches back to hurdling. No win since 2023, well beaten in novice chase latest, ground a concern back over timber.

KOBALT ST GEORGES appeared to benefit from a summer break when scoring twice over fences at Clonmel and now reverts to hurdles off a 16lb lower mark compared to his revised chase rating. Deanery Charlie didn't show too much in maidens but was noted staying on into fourth when switched to handicap company at Fairyhouse last time, while veteran Robindevidastar has dropped down to a basement mark and showed there was still some spark when fourth behind The Little Yank at Clonmel.

KOBALT ST GEORGES is 0-8 over timber but has won his last two chase starts and should be able to exploit his 16lb lower hurdles mark

Info	Form	Odds
1	10 1st (10) (4/1 +20%) Nettuno Italia	4 4/1(+20%)	(10) Nettuno Italia 4/1, Ran to form but looked in need of a stiffer test when beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle here last time. Suited by 3m with cut and needs a step back up in trip. Has finished fifth when a short price for majority of h'cap runs inc' last time; risky.
2	7 2nd (7) (20/1 -25%) Aine's Lad	20 20/1(-25%)	(7) Aine's Lad 20/1, Needed the run and may have found the ground too testing when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Limerick most recent. Effective from 2m to 3m on good ground, but out of form since going handicapping. Winless from 12 and mark seems high enough for what he has achieved in h'caps.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 -100%) Roccabaker	10 10/1(-100%)	(4) Roccabaker 10/1, Travelled well and improved when landing a handicap by 5l off a 9lb lower mark at Tramore last time. Effective from 2m to 2m6f and handles soft ground, but a new mark demands more. Won convincingly at Tramore last time, keeping on well; up 9lb but nice chance up in trip.
4	5 4th (5) (9/1 +36%) John Storey	9 9/1(+36%)	(5) John Storey 9/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle here latest. Tongue-tie is applied for the first time; effective at 3m with cut and dropping in the weights, but he is currently out of form.

5th	6 5th (6) (15/2 -114%) Comeonarchie	7.5 15/2(-114%)	(6) Comeonarchie 15/2, Returned to form up in trip, benefitting from an easy lead when landing a handicap by 4 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 3m and handles heavy and good ground; may have a bit more to offer now. Made breakthrough at 15th attempt last time; up 5lb but decent chance of following up.
6th	14 6th (14) (33/1 +18%) Fortunate Outcome	33 33/1(+18%)	(14) Fortunate Outcome 33/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Limerick latest. Hood is fitted for the first time; effective at 2m2f and handles heavy ground, but she has yet to show much so far. Tailed off and PU twice in opening three h'caps; hard to fancy..
7th	3 7th (3) (13/2 -8%) Welcome Aboard	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(3) Welcome Aboard 13/2, Needed the run and was probably unsuited by the drop in trip when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle here most recent. Off a short break, effective from 2m4f to 3m with cut and remains unexposed. Left maiden form behind when 3rd on h'cap bow (gd-yld); lesser run latest (hvy).
8th	12 8th (12) (6/1 +40%) Walking In Mayo	6 6/1(+40%)	(12) Walking In Mayo 6/1, Below form up in trip on handicap debut when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time. Effective at 3m in points and handles soft ground, but has yet to prove up to even this basement mark. Point winner showed little in m'dens but improvement on h'cap bow latest; chance.
9th	11 9th (11) (10/3 +26%) One Horse Army	3.333333 10/3(+26%)	(11) One Horse Army 10/3, Returned to form but looked in need of a stiffer test when beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Wants 3m or further, handles soft ground, and is on a good mark based on chase form. Dual chase winner is rated 19lb lower in this sphere; step up in trip will suit.
10th	13 10th (13) (25/1 +50%) Cloudy Fountain	25 25/1(+50%)	(13) Cloudy Fountain 25/1, Again below form when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle at Limerick most recent. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time; effective from 2m4f to 3m and suited by cut, but she remains out of form. H'cap winner in 2024 off 83; hasn't beaten a rival in either start this season.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (16/1 -33%) Kellys Corner	16 16/1(-33%)	(1) Kellys Corner 16/1, Outpaced and with too much to do when beaten 8l in a beginners' chase at Cork last time, and looked in need of a stiffer test. Effective at 2m4f and handles cut, so may do better when stepped up in trip. Good efforts in a m'den and beginners' last two runs; makes h'cap debut.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (40/1 -150%) My Friend The Wind	40 40/1(-150%)	(2) My Friend The Wind 40/1, On a stiff mark and below form when finishing down the field in a handicap chase at Killarney most recent.

COMEONARCHIE seems best with plenty of cut in the ground and was fitted with cheekpieces for the first time when making all over a similar trip here last month. He still appears reasonably treated off just a 5lb higher mark and gets the vote over fellow nine-year-old One Horse Army. The latter showed stamina is his strong suit when scoring twice over fences last term and had a couple of these rivals behind when a creditable fifth over hurdles at Limerick last time. Nettuno Italia can also get competitive.

The vote goes to dual chase winner ONE HORSE ARMY, who runs off a 19lb lower mark in this sphere and will be suited by this distance

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.

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.
