|PU| (3) (7/1 -17%) Farewellchancer
7
7/1(-17%)
(3) Farewellchancer 7/1, Creditable fifth of 9 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (21.7f, good, 50/1) 45 days ago. Back down in trip. Modest form but last two maiden runs give him a chance in this company; cuts back in trip.
LTO Selection:
A weak affair with GRANPA GER the suggestion. Out of five-time winner Clarach, the Tony Mullins-trained bay has improved with each run thus far and gave it a good go from the front at Gowran most recently. He eventually finished fifth at the Co Kilkenny venue, half-a-length in front of the reopposing Grasshopper Time. This Roger McGrath-trained five-year-old came from off the pace at Gowran and if more prominent tactics are deployed now he should go close. Gordon Elliott is represented by Farewellchancer and while clearly not one of the leading lights at Cullentra, he should be able to make his presence felt in a contest of this quality. A close fifth on his penultimate start, Blue In The West warrants respect, while Our Uncle Jack and newcomer Ivar The Boneless are others to consider.
IVAR THE BONELESS has a near 2-year absence to overcome but he's in good hands and if he can get close to his French form, he will take some stopping. Blue In The West must cast aside a heavy defeat at Galway but is a definite threat if doing so.
Tricky but at least BLUE IN THE WEST ran to his mark, and handled the track, when running well in a handicap here and this trip may suit
14:00 Tramore Maiden Hurdle 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(8) Duke Otto 9/1, Thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle (14/1) at Clonmel (19.1f, soft) 154 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Maiden was poor when last seen but has a chance if repeating his best efforts.

20/1(+60%)
(14) Catrionas Darling 20/1, 300/1, sixth of 8 in novice chase at Galway (18.5f, heavy) on debut over fences 9 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Well beaten on all starts and can't be fancied.
LTO Selection:
CRAIC EILE is a token choice in this wide-open contest. While she hasn't managed to win a race in over two years, she is a dual course and distance victor and was a fair sixth on the level here on her penultimate start. Back over flights now and with Darragh Allen claiming a valuable 7lb, the Ken Budds-trained six-year-old should go close. Port Rashid is another that acts well around Tramore, winning twice from seven visits to the seaside venue. He went down by just a length at Ballinrobe on his most recent start and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go a place better now. Successful here at the August festival, Prince Of Air is sure to have plenty of supporters, while other leading contenders are the Gordon Elliott-trained Be My Hero, course and distance winner Bite That and Wexford victor No Show.
BITE THAT is just 1 lb above the mark off which he scored over C&D last August, and he is appealing on the back of a solid effort over fences at Wexford when last seen. Fellow C&D winner Port Rashid also returned to form on his latest start, hitting the crossbar in a handicap at Ballinrobe, and he is next on the list ahead of Star Official.
Though she has been well beaten over fences on her last two starts, PANA TO MILAN is proven on this ground and can score.
(14) Faux Fur 28/1, Modest hurdler. 11/4, pulled up in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) 10 days ago, hanging left. Up in trip. Should improve. Runner-up in summer bumpers at Perth and Cork; fifth against geldings hurdling at Navan.

2nd (15) (40/1 -60%) Rachel's Secret

40/1(-60%)
(15) Rachel's Secret 40/1, Yeats filly. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 25f) Shining Gale. Wears hood. Runner-up sole start in points (Feb 19). Worth a market check. Yeats filly is hooded for rules debut; favourite when second in Kildorrery point'.

6/1(-50%)
(12) Silent Approach 6/1, Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 8 hurdle runs. Fell in novice hurdle at Killarney (17f, good to soft, 6/4) 11 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Runner-up three times in mares' maidens and went closest over 2m here in April;.

5/1(+29%)
(10) Lucky Viv 5/1, Fair hurdler. Respectable second of 15 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (20.5f, soft, 4/1) 17 days ago, finding little. Should make her presence felt. Seconds in similar contests here and at Roscommon give her solid each-way claims.

40/1(-150%)

125/1(-400%)
(16) Yourenotthebossame 125/1, Once-raced maiden. 17/2, sixth of 8 in bumper at Bellewstown (17.2f, good) on NH debut 43 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. RESERVE. Well beaten when sixth of eight in Bellewstown bumper; hurdles debut; reserve.
LTO Selection:
KUDASHEVA might be able to bounce back from a disappointing effort at Clonmel in February. Bought for 370,000 pounds after winning a point-to-point on debut, the Pour Moi bay was a fine third on her first start for current connections at Navan. She was a solid fifth on her next outing at Limerick, before failing to make an impact when sent off favourite at Powerstown Park. Four Clean Aces is Paul Townend's only ride on the card and the dual bumper winner is given second preference. A faller on debut over flights, she since finished a disappointing fourth when odds-on at Listowel. She may have needed that run to get her confidence back and it'll come as a surprise if she is not involved towards the business end here. Lucky Viv, Straight Home, Silent Approach and Rachael's Secret are others of interest.
KUDASHEVA folded tamely when last seen but she'd won a point and shown promise in this sphere prior to that, so she's worth a chance to make a successful return from 7 months off. Four Clean Aces is yet to match her bumper form over hurdles, but a cleaner round of jumping will put her in the picture, and a return to form from Silent Approach would give her a chance.
The form of her first two runs over hurdles is good enough to win this so KUDASHEVA is taken to score at her local track
15:10 Tramore Maiden Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(4) Paidi's Passion 11/4, Fairly useful winner at 23f in chases. Career best when winning 7-runner novice chase at Ballinrobe (23f, good to soft, 7/2) 27 days ago, driven clear. Switches from chase to hurdles. Up 8lb for Downpatrick win and has since won over fences at Ballinrobe; stays further.

(6) Lake Chad 11/4, Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. Good second of 8 in handicap hurdle at Galway (19.1f, heavy, 5/1) 9 days ago, running on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Goes well here and only beaten a length when switched back to hurdles at Galway last week.

40/1(+0%)

5th (2) (11/4 +80%) Pat Coyne
2.75
11/4(+80%)
(2) Pat Coyne 11/4, C&D winner. Respectable sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (24f, soft, 16/1) 10 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Likes it here and C&D winner off 97 in April; held over hurdles since and mark high enough.

6th (5) (6/1 -9%) Inchiquin Star
6
6/1(-9%)
(5) Inchiquin Star 6/1, 14/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (12f, good) 29 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Up in trip. Career best when winning on last hurdle outing. Shortlist material. Form of 2m handicap hurdle win here in August handsomely advertised; stamina concerns.

10
10/1(+70%)

LTO Selection:
LACKANEEN MAG looks well treated off an initial mark of 95. Placed on recent starts at Ballinrobe and Killarney, the Ken Budds-trained five-year-old will be ridden by Shane Fenelon who claims a valuable 7lb. The hat-trick seeking Paidi's Passion has been in excellent form of late and beat a decent field when successful over fences at Ballinrobe last month. Switching back to the smaller obstacles now and with Darragh O'Keeffe again in the saddle, it'll be interesting to see how she fares. Top-weight Walmix will likely have plenty of supporters as he starts off in handicap company, while Pat Coyne, Frazel Express and Inchiquin Star are other leading hopes in this competitive affair.
Dual Flat winner COMO PARK performed with credit when third in a 2m maiden hurdle here last time and, with the promise of better to come now handicapping and faced with a stiffer test, he gets the nod. Inchiquin Star did the job well on her latest start in this sphere and is feared most, though Walmix remains open to improvement and Paidi's Passion has to be respected in her hat-trick bid.
You won't get rich backing 11-year-old mares but a chance is taken with dual C&D winner FRAZEL EXPRESS who might have one more in her
(6) Itsalonglongroad 10/1, C&D winner. Eighth of 11 in handicap chase at Clonmel (18.2f, heavy, 14/1) 14 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. C&D winner in 2021 was poor at Clonmel last time and has to bounce back; visor tried.

(2) Peckham Springs 5/1, Below par fifth of 11 in handicap chase at this course (15.7f, soft, 9/1) 53 days ago. More is needed. Dual hurdle winner has run well at times over fences and could get involved.

3rd (7) (9/2 -13%) Finnians Row
4.5
9/2(-13%)
(7) Finnians Row 9/2, 22/1, career best when winning 8-runner novice chase at Downpatrick (17.8f, soft) 27 days ago, responding well. Weighted to follow up back in handicap company. Surprise winner of a Downpatrick beginners' chase last time; has to defy a 12lb rise.

(5) Astrophysicist 12/1, Modest winner at 10f on Flat. Twelfth of 13 in novice chase at Fairyhouse (16.5f, soft, 150/1) on debut over fences 5 days ago. Makes handicap chase debut with more required. Was tailed off on chasing debut five days ago and needs huge improvement.
LTO Selection:
Successful three times from nine visits to Tramore, ITSALONGLONGROAD might be able to enhance that record. Third on his most recent visit to the Co Waterford venue, he since filled the runner-up spot at Ballinrobe, before disappointing on heavy ground at Listowel. Back to his favourite venue now and fitted with a visor for the first time, the versatile nine-year-old should go close. Mater Matuta has a course and distance win to her name and the Charles Coakley-trained chestnut is given second preference. A runner-up on her latest try over fences, it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a place better now. Finians Row sprang a surprise when successful on his 24th start at Downpatrick last month and it'll be interesting to see if he can follow-up on that performance. Top-weight Cheerful Chap, Philip Rothwell's Ardamir and recent Clonmel third Shean Glory (first-time cheekpieces) are other leading hopes.
Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and FINNIANS ROW looks the way to go on the back of his breakthrough success at Downpatrick. Killarney second Ardamir rates the chief threat to the well-treated selection ahead of in-form pair Shean Glory and Mater Matuta.
Though ARDAMIR is more effective on better ground, he might be able to get away with it dropped to this grade.
(16) Croi Corcra 15/2, Modest hurdler. 5/1, good third of 11 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (24f, soft) 10 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. RESERVE. Beaten 32l here on chasing debut in August; two fair hurdle runs since; reserve.

12/1(+40%)
(15) Townhill Penny 12/1, Modest chaser. Fifth of 7 in novice chase at Killarney (23f, good to soft, 22/1) 11 days ago. Merits consideration. Not a bad chasing debut at Ballinrobe but a lesser run at Killarney since and questions.

|PU| (9) (18/1 +10%) The Great White

18/1(+10%)
(9) The Great White 18/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Hooded for 1st time, eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Ballinrobe (21.8f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Placed a number of times over fences, inc' over C&D; well below his best last five starts.
LTO Selection:
HUTCHIE gets the nod in this weak affair. A winner at Galway on his penultimate start, the Valirann chestnut performed with credit on his racecourse debut over fences, going down by three-lengths to the more experienced Read To Return. Townhill Penny and Game And Glory finished a long way behind the selection at the Co Kerry venue and they both reoppose now. First reserve Croi Corcra would be of definite interest if getting a run. She has four point-to-point wins to her name and was a good third over flights at Fairyhouse recently. Duncarrig is sure to have plenty of supporters after winning at Navan last month. While unproven at the trip, the Tony Mullins-trained six-year-old should be able to make an impact in a contest of this quality. A four-time victor in the UK and a brother to Grade 2 winner Vision Des Flos, Umndeni is an interesting contender. He ran with credit when fifth on his Irish debut at Listowel last month and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to get a lot closer now. Carrig Carol, The Great White and Sixhandsinmypockets are others for the shortlist.
The vote goes to HUTCHIE, who improved when striking over hurdles at Galway last month and duly left his previous efforts in this sphere well behind when runner-up in a maiden chase at Killarney 11 days ago.Duncarrig opened his account at the ninth attempt in a handicap hurdle at Navan and will be a threat if he takes to fences at the first attempt, while Townhill Penny is also shortlisted.
In fine form lately, having won a Galway handicap hurdle and second in a Killarney beginners' chase, HUTCHIE can score.

(7) Ballinearla Girl 18/1, Once-raced maiden. 80/1, fourth of 10 in bumper at Wexford (16.7f, heavy) on NH debut 62 days ago. Promise on debut when 4th in a Wexford bumper (80/1); can go well with improvement likely.

(1) Barton Snow 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable third of 10 in bumper at Kilbeggan (16f, soft, 9/2) 48 days ago. Respected. Twice placed in bumpers, incl' over C&D; probably more effective on better ground.

(6) Crinaloo Flyer 250/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. 250/1, last of 6 in bumper at Clonmel (16.8f, heavy) on bumper debut 14 days ago. Well beaten both starts and best to look elsewhere.

|PU| (5) (33/1 -50%) Go On Zahra

33/1(-50%)
(5) Go On Zahra 33/1, Al Wukair gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners on Flat, including useful winner around 1m in France Sunday Nectar. Dam race twice on Flat in France. Bred for the Flat and stamina could be stretched on this ground.
LTO Selection:
Cappucino has some strong form to his name and looks the one to beat with Maxine O'Sullivan aboard. Last seen finishing fourth in a Listed bumper at Limerick in March, he may just need this run. Willie Mullins introduces newcomer Where's Nanny, with this Walk In The Park bay sure to have plenty of supporters. Out of Loughaderra Dame, who was placed in Listed company over flights, it'll come as a surprise if she is not involved towards the business end. For a selection, it might be worth siding with BALLINEARLA GIRL. She ran a fine race to finish fourth on debut at Wexford in August and was a place behind subsequent winner Meet My Loreley. Likely to have learned plenty at Bettyville, the Eoin Doyle-trained bay will be ridden by capable amateur Emily Cody, who claims a valuable 7lb. Beaten by just a neck over the course and distance in June, Barton Snow has definite claims, while newcomer Go On Zahra is another that warrants respect.
A thin bumper and it's hard to get away from WHERE'S NANNY starting out for Willie Mullins. The experienced pair Barton Snow and Cappucino are feared.
CAPPUCINO (nap) has the form in the book, with three solid bumper runs, including in a Limerick Listed when last seen, so looks solid.

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.
