A consistent sort since going hurdling, NOTICEBOX can record the first win of his career. With an official rating of 115, he should be good enough to win a contest such as this. Runner-up on his last three starts, Power Of Words is another that should make the breakthrough before too long. Jetaway Nana is one that could have scope for further improvement.

There's a lot of dead wood here. NOTICEBOX has been shaping like a winner waiting to happen and opportunity knocks here.

A winner at this track on the Flat last October, FIREBRAND can make the breakthrough over hurdles. He needs to improve on recent form but has the potential to do so. Point-to-point runner-up Laurie Blue has yet to reach the frame under Rules but this looks a weak affair. Given her experience, the Court Cave mare has to be respected. Flat winners Roman Harry and River Derwent also enter calculations.

The pick of his efforts on the Flat and over hurdles would suggest that FIREBRAND is the one they all have to beat.

NED IN THE PARK can reverse recent course form with We're Back Again. Sent off favourite on that occasion, the Tim Doyle-trained gelding was still in contention when badly hampered after the second last. But for that interference, he may well have finished ahead of the Patrick Griffin-trained runner-up. The aforementioned We're Back Again is entitled to improve sufficiently from that promising debut effort to be the main danger. If none the worse for his recent fall at Down Royal, bumper winner Big Dee should also be competitive.

When behind We're Back Again here last month NED IN THE PARK was badly hampered two out. The selection has run well since.

Runner-up here over fences last month, INTHENICKOFTIME can exploit a lower rating back over hurdles. A winner at Wexford last year, the Enda Bolger-trained five-year-old has shaped with plenty of promise on three starts over the larger obstacles and he appears to have been found an ideal opportunity to record the second win of his career. Killarney chase winner Smallcraftwarning also has to be of interest back over hurdles. Recent scorers Adaliz and Mister Vic are both worthy of consideration.

The suggestion is SMALLCRAFTWARNING who has been running well this year in both jumps disciplines and remains on a competitive mark.

FOXY GIRL has been lightly-raced and frustrating to follow since scoring back in December 2022 but has shown useful chase form on recent runs and is suited by soft ground. Her old hurdles form was useful and while she has been beaten in four chases, bumped into some capable types in those races and is suited by this distance. Maidenstreetprince will also handle an ease and ran well in a good handicap at Killarney last month. Fiveonefive is also noted.

MAIDENSTREETPRINCE ran with credit in a decent handicap chase last time and may finally get his head in front over fences
Class & Speed Card

STILY has shown improved form over hurdles recently and might score on his chase debut. From Kauto Star's family, the selection has run consistently well in recent handicap hurdles and could progress further. Zolpharine is more exposed but goes well for this 7lb claimer and is suited by conditions. Burru disappointed at Wexford last month but had previously run well here in June.

GAELIC DES CHASTYS (nap) was a close second in this last year, he's had a sharpener over hurdles and his rider's 5lb claim could be key
Class & Speed Card

JEU DE PIC is a 12-race maiden but ran well in a similar race last month and should cope with softening ground. The selection has been frustrating in his career thus far but nonetheless had useful hurdle runs last summer and, on his second chase start at Killarney, he bumped into a nicely handicapped winner, with Meehall finishing third. Western Model is noted too.

JEU DE PIC is relatively unexposed in this sphere and he handled softer conditions well when second at Killarney last time
Class & Speed Card

RIPSNORTER's yard has been doing very well in bumpers and he performed well for third last month. Well beaten on debut, he attracted support at Killarney where he finished ahead of fourth-placed Maskarvel, who finished second at Galway last week. Boo Radley represents top connections and is respected. Barrys Spirit hails from an excellent family stretching back to Flame Of Tara and he should also be taken seriously.

Given the champion trainer's record in bumpers here, BOO RADLEY is preferred ahead of Master Haku and Barrys Spirit

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.
