1	10 1st (10) (9/2 +72%) Prince Of Air		4.5 9/2(+72%)																															(10) Prince Of Air 9/2, 12/1, creditable 9½ lengths fifth of 13 to Birdsandthebees in handicap chase at Clonmel (17.2f, good to soft) 36 days ago. First run for yard after leaving P. J. Rothwell. All his best form has been at Tramore, appears held by Birdsandthebees on Clonmel running.
2	3 2nd (3) (10/1 +0%) Winding River		10 10/1(+0%)																															(3) Winding River 10/1, Latest win in chase at Clonmel in October. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap chase (6/1) at Naas (20f, good to soft) 19 days ago, some sketchy jumping essentially holding him back. Not out of things if keeping the errors at bay. Best form at Downpatrick, won at Clonmel last month, 6l behind Sea Road Fill at Naas.
3	11 3rd (11) (6/1 +63%) Rock On Pedro		6 6/1(+63%)																															(11) Rock On Pedro 6/1, Remains a maiden after 17 NH runs. Respectable fifth of 15 in handicap chase (6/1) at Clonmel (20.8f, good to soft) 22 days ago, likely to have finished closer still but for being badly hampered approaching straight. Not out of things. Flat winner, 0-17 over jumps, has been well supported on several occasions, not ruled out.
4	5 4th (5) (15/2 -25%) Sea Road Fill		7.5 15/2(-25%)																															(5) Sea Road Fill 15/2, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs. Creditable third of 10 in handicap chase (13/2) at Naas (20f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Each-way claims again. No success yet but not a lost cause, placed in a stronger race than this last time.
5th	8 5th (8) (2/1 +20%) Birdsandthebees		2 2/1(+20%)																															(8) Birdsandthebees 2/1, Promising individual who stepped up on her chase debut display when winning 13-runner handicap at Clonmel (17.2f, good to soft, 18/5) 36 days ago, driven clear. Holds sound claims with likelihood of more to come. Value for more than the 1.5l margin at Clonmel, up 10lb but can continue to prosper.
6th	7 6th (7) (22/1 -10%) Chainofconsequence		22 22/1(-10%)																															(7) Chainofconsequence 22/1, Unreliable sort. Latest win in chase at Downpatrick in June. 40/1, fourteenth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, good to soft) 26 days ago, taking strong hold and weakening entering straight. That ought to have taken the freshness out of him but others appeal more in any case. Down the field over hurdles on latest, Downpatrick win in June was over a staying trip.
7th	9 7th (9) (18/1 -125%) Ricky Langford		18 18/1(-125%)																															(9) Ricky Langford 18/1, Moody sort. 7/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap chase at this course (16.6f, good) 8 days ago. Others more persuasive. Fair third over a shorter trip at this venue last week, stable enjoying a good season.
8th	4 8th (4) (40/1 -60%) The Little Yank		40 40/1(-60%)																															(4) The Little Yank 40/1, Thirty two runs since last win in 2022. 22/1, eighth of 9 in handicap hurdle at this course (20.2f, good) 8 days ago, always behind. Hard to warm to now his attentions switch back to chasing. Heavily raced gelding whose long losing sequence looks set to continue, poor recent form.
9th	6 9th (6) (10/1 +17%) Only One Plan		10 10/1(+17%)																															(6) Only One Plan 10/1, Latest win in hurdle at Downpatrick in September. Respectable eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Gowran (20.2f, good to soft) 56 days ago. Makes chase debut. 2-24 over hurdles, placed six times, lack of chasing experience is a potential drawback.
1	1 |U| (1) (25/1 -150%) King Ferdinand		25 25/1(-150%)																															(1) King Ferdinand 25/1, Course winner. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Cork (28f, good, 14/1) 26 days ago, travelling well but not quicken after 2 out. Not ruled out from steadily easing mark. The majority of his best form has been over longer distances, this may prove too sharp.
10th	13 10th (13) (50/1 +24%) The Eye Of Tulla		50 50/1(+24%)																															(13) The Eye Of Tulla 50/1, 20/1, last of 7 in handicap chase at this course (22.4f, good) 1 day ago. Badly out of form this year, no apparent chance, 5lb out of the handicap.
11th	12 11th (12) (16/1 +0%) Coole Arcade		16 16/1(+0%)																															(12) Coole Arcade 16/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, last of 6 in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (24.3f, good) 17 days ago. Tongue strap back on and return to this shorter trip looks a definite plus. Needs to bounce back from a poor Fairyhouse run, solid effort at Tramore three starts ago.
2	2 |PU| (2) (12/1 -85%) Jack Holiday		12 12/1(-85%)																															(2) Jack Holiday 12/1, 3 wins from 8 runs this season. Capitalised on lower mark when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft, 5/2) 10 days ago, all out. Cheekpieces back on returned to chasing and rider again takes off a handy 7 lb. Possibilities. Gained his sixth win when taking a recent handicap hurdle, much higher rating over fences.

BIRDSANDTHEBEES was value for a bit more than her winning margin at Clonmel last month and may be able to go in again here off a 10lb higher mark. The Walk In The Park mare was making just her second outing over fences then and may be better suited by the larger obstacles. That form looks solid, with the second and third placed again since. Jack Holiday was all out to make use of a lower hurdles mark at Limerick 10 days ago. He's probably a better horse over a fence but could be on a high enough rating. Sea Road Fill ran a solid race in his first handicap over fences at Naas and could be place material again.

BIRDSANDTHEBEES confirmed the promise of her chase debut effort when running out a good winner at Clonmel 5 weeks ago. That performance hasn't escaped the attentions of the assessor but open to further progress, she may well be up to the task. Recent hurdles scorer Jack Holiday and Sea Road Fill are others to consider. King Ferdinand also makes each-way appeal.

Slight preference is for SEA ROAD FILL, dropped in grade after a Naas third. Birdsandthebees is a big danger.

7	7 (7) (6/4 +33%) C'est Ta Chance		1.5 6/4(+33%)																															(7) C'est Ta Chance 6/4, Won sole start in points and showed fairly useful form in bumpers. Big shout now going hurdling for his top yard. Point winner in 2023, kept good company in bumpers last season, bar set relatively low now.
1	4 1st (4) (9/4 +50%) Artic Lane		2.25 9/4(+50%)																															(4) Artic Lane 9/4, Fairly useful bumper performer who posted a good third of 14 in novice hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 10 days ago. Has good form claims. Point winner, three seconds in bumpers, needs to improve from recent Limerick third.
2	11 2nd (11) (6/5 +66%) Relieved Of Duties		1.2 6/5(+66%)																															(11) Relieved Of Duties 6/5, Evens, third of 10 in bumper at Clonmel (16.2f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Makes hurdles debut and this point winner is a likely player. Point winner in April, beaten favourite when third in a Clonmel bumper, leading contender.
3	3 3rd (3) (25/1 +0%) Polemon		25 25/1(+0%)																															(3) Polemon 25/1, Twice-raced maiden in bumpers. Fairly useful winner at 12f on flat. Last of 9 in handicap at Dundalk (12f, 17/2) 28 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Much respected. Progressive Flat handicapper this term winning three times, lacks hurdling experience.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 +0%) Bold Passion		10 10/1(+0%)																															(6) Bold Passion 10/1, Once-raced maiden. 18/1, second of 10 in bumper at Clonmel (16.2f, good to soft) on NH debut 22 days ago, travelling as well as any. Makes hurdles debut. Can make his presence felt. Left his poor points form behind when 2nd in Clonmel bumper with Relieved Of Duties third.
5th	5 5th (5) (12/1 +40%) Bayrann		12 12/1(+40%)																															(5) Bayrann 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Excellent fourth of 18 in novice hurdle (40/1) at Punchestown (15.5f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Should have more to offer. Has shown some promise in bumpers/maiden hurdles, probably more of a handicap prospect.
6th	12 6th (12) (18/1 +45%) Teagarden Jazz		18 18/1(+45%)																															(12) Teagarden Jazz 18/1, Modest hurdler. Remains a maiden after 12 hurdle runs. 66/1, sixth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.3f, good to soft) 26 days ago, finding little. Ten-race maiden on the Flat, 0-12 over hurdles placed twice, others have stronger claims.
7th	2 7th (2) (12/1 +52%) Plunkett Street		12 12/1(+52%)																															(2) Plunkett Street 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 18/1, very good third of 7 in novice hurdle at this C&D (good) 8 days ago. Considered. Beaten 10l in fifth behind a stablemate of C'Est Ta Chance over C&D, needs to find extra.
8th	10 8th (10) (100/1 -52%) Master Of The Sums		100 100/1(-52%)																															(10) Master Of The Sums 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in minor event hurdle at Clonmel (19.2f, good to soft, 25/1) 22 days ago. Beat modest opposition when winning a point, soundly beaten in two maiden hurdle outings.
9th	1 9th (1) (12/1 -167%) My Lyka		12 12/1(-167%)																															(1) My Lyka 12/1, Twice-raced maiden. 10/3, last of 7 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (22.5f, good to soft) 28 days ago, dropping away quickly. Stable having good spell. One to bear in mind on pick of form. Struggled on Flat after a good hurdles run at Killarney in May, tailed off at Down Royal.
10th	8 10th (8) (50/1 -52%) Gold Fever		50 50/1(-52%)																															(8) Gold Fever 50/1, Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 11 in bumper (18/1) at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft) on NH debut. Off 13 months. Makes hurdles debut. First run for yard after leaving Noel Meade. Not a bad run in a bumper on his only start for Noel Meade, off for almost 14 months.

Point-to-point winner C'EST TA CHANCE was well touted before his track debut last season, when losing out narrowly to William Munny at Navan in January. He made little impression at Cheltenham subsequently before getting turned over in an Ayr bumper when a short price. Better will be expected over hurdles this season. Relieved Of Duties is another winning pointer who may improve from his run in a Clonmel bumper just over three weeks ago. He was behind Bold Passion then, when the pair filled the places behind Mic Drop. Peter Fahey's charge is another for the shortlist.

The market should prove a good guide here but Willie Mullins' points scorer C'EST TA CHANCE is taken to build on his fairly useful bumper form and make a winning start in this sphere. Fellow hurdling newcomer Relieved of Duties also has winning point form to his name and could emerge as the main danger ahead of form pick Artic Lane.

A point winner who went close in the first of three bumper outings last season, C'EST TA CHANCE is probably a cut above these rivals

12	12 (12) (20/1 0%) Heidi's Frontiere		20 20/1(0%)																															(12) Heidi's Frontiere 20/1, 33/1, bit below form tenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (21.5f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Back down in trip. Never a factor on her handicap debut at Tramore in April; best watched after a break.

Significantly back down in trip. Modest form over hurdles; could figure on 2nd handicap start down in trip but is risky.

Signs of life in blinkers at Gowran latest but the ground could be against her here.
4	13 4th (13) (7/2 +30%) Destivelle		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(13) Destivelle 7/2, Placed for the fifth time in a handicap hurdles when third of 11 at Limerick (16f, soft) 10 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Twice placed over C&D early last season; 3rd at Limerick latest but would prefer it softer.
5th	16 5th (16) (13/2 +59%) Ar Nos Na Gaoithe		6.5 13/2(+59%)																															(16) Ar Nos Na Gaoithe 13/2, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable ninth of 16 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Fairyhouse (23.8f, good) 24 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. 7th at Limerick on penultimate start, finishing off well; needs a sterner test than this.
6th	11 6th (11) (10/1 +0%) Thats All		10 10/1(+0%)																															(11) Thats All 10/1, Remains a maiden after 19 NH runs. 10/1, sixth of 8 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good) 8 days ago. Engaged 3.25 here Thursday. Never-nearer sixth of nine over C&D last week; chance if she can build on that.
7th	2 7th (2) (11/2 +50%) Ask Cillian		5.5 11/2(+50%)																															(2) Ask Cillian 11/2, Winner in hurdle at Killarney in August. Eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft, 8/1) 35 days ago, going in snatches. Soundly beaten in last three starts and she should find this trip on the sharp side.
8th	3 8th (3) (5/1 +0%) Nells Choice		5 5/1(+0%)																															(3) Nells Choice 5/1, Creditable eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle (7/1) at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 17 days ago. Down in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Struggled back in a handicap at Fairyhouse; likely pace angle; drop in trip could suit.
9th	15 9th (15) (50/1 +24%) Alltheattitudes		50 50/1(+24%)																															(15) Alltheattitudes 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, eighth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 10 days ago. No impact in four maiden hurdles and never a factor on handicap debut at Limerick.
10th	6 10th (6) (7/1 -17%) Walk Of The Roses		7 7/1(-17%)																															(6) Walk Of The Roses 7/1, Bumper winner. 7/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable third of 9 in novice hurdle at Worcester (16f, good) 100 days ago. First run for yard after leaving David Pipe. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Unexposed. Bumper winner on fast ground for Pipe; fascinating runner making her handicap/Irish debut.
11th	14 11th (14) (50/1 +0%) Colourful Lil		50 50/1(+0%)																															(14) Colourful Lil 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden.

WALK OF THE ROSES won a bumper in Britain and had some solid placed form over hurdles. She could be on a nice mark on her first outing for Jimmy Mangan in what doesn't look like a particularly strong heat. Destivelle ended up a moderate enough third at Limerick last time, but has been running some solid enough races and she is entitled to play a big part now in this company. Love Like This was outclassed in novice company last time, but had some decent enough runs in maidens and may be able to get a bit closer now at this level.

It might be worth taking a chance on bumper winner WALK OF THE ROSES taking a step forward now handicapping for the first time for a new stable. Del Girl would likely be a big threat if back to the form she showed when going close at Punchestown in June. Destivelle also makes the shortlist having been placed in similar company on 5 of her last 7 hurdle starts.

Many with chances in an open affair but WALK OF THE ROSES has to be of interest on her Irish and stable debut

Makes hurdles debut. First run for yard after leaving Colin Motherway. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Can't be dismissed. Showed ability on soft at Naas on debut; debut for Emmet Mullins so watch the market.
2	2 2nd (2) (4/1 -33%) Bossofthebrownies		4 4/1(-33%)																															(2) Bossofthebrownies 4/1, Fairly useful maiden who posted a very good third of 9 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (23.7f, soft, 4/1). Off 9 months but still not taken lightly. 3rd in pair of maiden hurdles at Punchestown; going the right way and should be involved.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/8 +54%) Magellan Strait		1.375 11/8(+54%)																															(1) Magellan Strait 11/8, Thrice-raced maiden over hurdles. Useful winner at 17f on flat. Very good fifth of 24 in handicap (50/1) at Newmarket (18f, soft) 48 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles and one to consider. Irish Cesarewitch winner last year placed in all three maiden hurdles during the summer.

6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 -17%) Workforadime		14 14/1(-17%)																															(9) Workforadime 14/1, Fair hurdler. Fifteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (24.7f, soft, 16/1) 7 days ago. Remains a maiden after 18 hurdle runs. Well backed favourite when well beaten at Fairyhouse so keep a close eye on the betting.
3	3 |PU| (3) (17/2 -6%) Charlie's Dilemma		8.5 17/2(-6%)																															(3) Charlie's Dilemma 17/2, Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 7 hurdle runs. 10/3, creditable third of 9 in minor event hurdle at Clonmel (19.2f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. No surprise if he was in the mix for the places once again back up in distance.
7	7 |PU| (7) (125/1 -25%) Ballinlegane Lady		125 125/1(-25%)																															(7) Ballinlegane Lady 125/1, Twice-raced maiden.

INN AT THE PARK was slightly disappointing on the last of his three bumper runs last season, but should be good enough to make a winning start over timber here. The Walk In The Park gelding had been third on his first two outings and had been beaten less than a length by Cheltenham fourth Sounds Victorious at Punchestown previously. Smart Flat performer Magellan Strait, fifth in the Cesarewitch at Newmarket last month, is an interesting rival. He has been placed in three maiden hurdles without showing the same level of ability as on the Flat. Bossofthebrownies had two nice placed efforts last term and is one to note on his return.

MACHISMO shaped well when a debut hurdling second at Sligo and can build on it to get off the mark. Newcomer Inn At The Park is in top hands and can also have a say, with Bossofthebrownies also in the mix despite his absence.

INN AT THE PARK has some smart bumper form to his name and looks the most likely winner here on his hurdling debut

1	7 1st (7) (15/2 -50%) Ad Caelum		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(7) Ad Caelum 15/2, Ran right up to best when good third of 10 in novice hurdle at this course (22.9f, good, 25/1) 8 days ago and looks fairly treated on handicap debut. Placed in three of her six maiden hurdle starts, opening mark does not seem unreasonable.
2	2 2nd (2) (10/1 -67%) Inchiquin Star		10 10/1(-67%)																															(2) Inchiquin Star 10/1, Latest win in hurdle at Wexford in October. Creditable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (15.5f, good to soft, 8/1) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Not out of things. Went up 8lb for winning at Wexford, out of the money at Punchestown off her new mark.
3	6 3rd (6) (7/2 -17%) Delias Pet		3.5 7/2(-17%)																															(6) Delias Pet 7/2, Been kept busy of late and arrives in fine form, scoring at Fairyhouse (20.5f) and Gowran (19.8f) and arrives on back of good third of 9 in handicap hurdle over C&D (good) 8 days ago, running on. Shortlist material. Holding her form well since winning twice in the first third of the month, should go close.
4	4 4th (4) (5/1 +50%) Optional Mix		5 5/1(+50%)																															(4) Optional Mix 5/1, 15¾ lengths ninth of 11 to Inchiquin Star in handicap hurdle (14/1) at Wexford (16.4f, heavy) 32 days ago. Back up in trip. Tongue strap back on. Needs a couple of these to falter. Much more effective as a chaser, hard to fancy despite her declining hurdles rating.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/1 +44%) Presenting Doyen		9 9/1(+44%)																															(1) Presenting Doyen 9/1, Blinkered for 1st time, below form sixth of 10 in handicap chase (18/1) at Roscommon (21.7f, soft) 60 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Booking of Millar a plus. Others preferred. Has been struggling to make an impact over fences, needs to show a revival in form.
6th	3 6th (3) (2/1 +0%) Fillusin		2 2/1(+0%)																															(3) Fillusin 2/1, Found improvement when good second of 10 in novice hurdle at this course (22.9f, good, 5/1) 8 days ago, running on. Trainer going well. Likely more to come on handicap debut. Placed on her last four maiden hurdle starts though soundly beaten, may find her level now.

Switches from chase to hurdles. Blinkers back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Below best over fences last time, twice unplaced over hurdles since Ballinrobe win in May.

DELIAS PET may be able to pick up the winning thread again here. The Stowaway mare came good with victories at Fairyhouse and Gowran earlier in the month and the ones in front may just have got away from her on two starts since. She has been held up in her races and stayed on well when third here eight days ago without reaching the front pair. Ad Caelum ran well in maiden company when third to Grooveykindoflove here eight days ago and is interesting now off a mark of 95. She is 4lb better off with runner-up Fillusin from that race.

FILLUSIN is lightly raced over timber and makes fair appeal on her handicap debut. Delias Pet and Ad Caelum look the likeliest dangers.

The locally-trained DELIAS PET was arguably given too much to do here last time. She is an in-form mare and makes plenty of appeal

1	3 1st (3) (7/2 +36%) Down Around		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(3) Down Around 7/2, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs but ran right up to best when good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 17 days ago. Still feasibly treated and must enter calculations. Nearly took advantage of a falling mark when second behind the progressive Portarlington.
2	19 2nd (19) (15/2 -36%) Klassman		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(19) Klassman 15/2, Ran up to best when creditable fourth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20.2f, good to soft, 4/1) 14 days ago and is only 1 lb higher now. RESERVE. Fourth of 18 at Punchestown latest; no reason why he won't be in the hunt again.
3	6 3rd (6) (50/1 -25%) Vroomvroomboo		50 50/1(-25%)																															(6) Vroomvroomboo 50/1, 25/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 17 days ago. Up against it. Mark of 100 looked high so a poor run at Fairyhouse was no surprise; best watched.
4	17 4th (17) (16/1 -14%) County Champs		16 16/1(-14%)																															(17) County Champs 16/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (23.8f, good, 10/1) 24 days ago. Not out of things. 4th of 16 at Fairyhouse latest; could be nicely treated but the shorter trip is a worry.
5th	12 5th (12) (22/1 -10%) Fear The Deere		22 22/1(-10%)																															(12) Fear The Deere 22/1, Fourteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle (17/2) at Tipperary (16.5f, soft) 7 days ago. Up in trip. Something to find on form. Engaged 3.35 here Thursday. Yet to threaten and well held in a pair of handicap hurdles too; difficult to recommend.
6th	14 6th (14) (16/1 -78%) Jetaway To Getaway		16 16/1(-78%)																															(14) Jetaway To Getaway 16/1, Upped her game in recent starts, latest when third of 15 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (19.8f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Still low mileage and holds solid claims. Ran well but looked in need of a sterner test when third over 2m4f at Gowran latest.
7th	16 7th (16) (20/1 +20%) Demanding Gerry		20 20/1(+20%)																															(16) Demanding Gerry 20/1, Sixth of 9 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good, 14/1) 8 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Was making headway when making a bad mistake three from home over C&D last week.
8th	11 8th (11) (9/1 -13%) U Asking Me		9 9/1(-13%)																															(11) U Asking Me 9/1, Winner in hurdle at Clonmel in October. Creditable sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Fairyhouse (20.5f, good) 24 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Each-way claims. Good run in 6th at Fairyhouse but the handicapper might have caught up with him for now.
9th	9 9th (9) (5/2 +69%) Willywampus		2.5 5/2(+69%)																															(9) Willywampus 5/2, Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle (16/5) at this course (15.9f, good) 8 days ago, doing too much too soon. Back up in trip. Tongue strap back on. Warrants respect. Big run after an absence when fourth here over 2m latest, supported in the betting.
10th	2 10th (2) (7/1 -17%) Phoenix Cowboy		7 7/1(-17%)																															(2) Phoenix Cowboy 7/1, Not scored for over 3 years but posted encouraging first start for new yard when very good third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.2f, good) 17 days ago, running on. Claims if building on that. Good debut for his new yard when third at Fairyhouse latest and top jockey booked.
11th	4 11th (4) (16/1 +20%) Iron Allen		16 16/1(+20%)																															(4) Iron Allen 16/1, 9/1, first run since leaving Ciaran Murphy when seventh of 11 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (22.8f, soft) 54 days ago, unable to sustain effort. First run for yard after leaving John G. Hayes. Work to do. Poor run when last seen in 2m7f Killarney handicap hurdle; has changed stable again.
12th	18 12th (18) (50/1 -400%) Tasmanian Girl		50 50/1(-400%)																															(18) Tasmanian Girl 50/1, Second of 8 in handicap hurdle (50/1) at this course (15.9f, good) 8 days ago, running on late. Back up in trip. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Now 0-27 under rules but she stuck to her task well when second here over 2m last week.
13th	15 13th (15) (40/1 -21%) Stily		40 40/1(-21%)																															(15) Stily 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, ninth of 17 in novice hurdle at Gowran (16f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Should have more to offer. Makes his handicap debut here which might help but he's best watched.
1	1 |PU| (1) (10/1 +17%) Arabian King		10 10/1(+17%)																															(1) Arabian King 10/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Fairyhouse (23.5f, good) 17 days ago. Enters calculations. Didn't stay 3m last few runs but drop back in trip should suit; there with every chance.
5	5 |PU| (5) (18/1 -13%) Ladiam		18 18/1(-13%)																															(5) Ladiam 18/1, Twelfth of 18 in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Tipperary (24.7f, soft) 7 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Never a factor at Tipperary latest; well handicapped if she can find her best.

Tiernan Power Roche is proving very good value for his 7lb claim and he can bag another winner for Philip Rothwell on DOWN AROUND. The Sea Moon gelding ran a big race at Fairyhouse earlier in the month when losing out by half a length to Portarlington. The winner went on to score over fences at Tramore on Tuesday. Phoenix Cowboy was five and a half lengths behind the selection last time and may be able to get a bit closer now. He shaped nicely then on his first outing for Mick Winters. Tasmanian Girl was second at a massive price last time and has a chance if repeating that showing.

PHOENIX COWBOY has been cut plenty of slack by the handicapper and shaped well on his debut for new connections at Fairyhouse earlier this month. He gets the nod in the finale. Jetaway To Getaway and Down Around can also make their presence felt.

WILLYWAMPUS (nap) was heavily supported in the betting when an eyecatching fourth here after a break and could be poised to strike

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.
