Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (10/3 +26%) Dandy Khan	3.333333 10/3(+26%)	(8) Dandy Khan 10/3, Finished strongly to win by 2l off 49 here last time. Usually held up, effective from 7f to 8f and handles any surface; carries a penalty but remains of interest. 6lb penalty after winning over C&D a week ago; shortlisted under the same conditions.
2	5 2nd (5) (8/1 -45%) Blue Empress	8 8/1(-45%)	(5) Blue Empress 8/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off 58 here last time. Effective at 7f and acts on all-weather. Still a maiden but has been in good form. Often placed but 0-17; should again be thereabouts, but others preferred for win purposes.
3	7 3rd (7) (50/1 -100%) Amarachi	50 50/1(-100%)	(7) Amarachi 50/1, Below form and needed the run when beaten 9 1/2l in a 6f handicap at Yarmouth last time. Effective at 6f and acts on good to firm ground; may come on for that outing. Won at Yarmouth in June, but well held on stable debut there last time; needs a resurgence.
4	6 4th (6) (13/2 -30%) Gundogan	6.5 13/2(-30%)	(6) Gundogan 13/2, A bit below his best but had excuses when beaten 3 1/4l off 59 over 6f at Southwell last time. Effective from 6f to 7f and handles a sound surface; capable of better. Partnered by one of the more experienced apprentices; yard took this last year; respected.
5th	4 5th (4) (15/8 +38%) Luminous Warrior	1.875 15/8(+38%)	(4) Luminous Warrior 15/8, Ran to form when beaten 2l off 63 at Kempton last time. Effective from 7f to 8f and acts on all-weather; respected. Finished a close fourth at Kempton last time and the form of that race has worked out well.
6th	2 6th (2) (18/1 -300%) Groundsman	18 18/1(-300%)	(2) Groundsman 18/1, Scored by 1 1/4l off 60 at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start and ran to form when third last time. Effective from 6f to 7f and acts on all-weather; holding his form well. Running well lately; may again face competition for the lead, but should go well.
7th	3 7th (3) (8/1 +64%) Sands Of Havana	8 8/1(+64%)	(3) Sands Of Havana 8/1, Below her novice form when beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Effective from 5f to 7f and handles a sound surface but needs to improve. 0-7; behind two of these at Wolverhampton last time; will need to take a step forward.
8th	10 8th (10) (16/1 +36%) My Boy Jack	16 16/1(+36%)	(10) My Boy Jack 16/1, Below form when beaten 6l in a 6f handicap at Newcastle last time. Usually held up and suited by 6f to 7f; acts on a sound surface and is on a fair mark despite a long losing run. Notoriously hard to win with (3-77); another frame finish may be his best hope.
9th	9 9th (9) (8/1 -14%) Chloe's Courage	8 8/1(-14%)	(9) Chloe's Courage 8/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off 45 here last time after dropping in trip. Effective from 6f to 8f and acts on all-weather; respected on that recent effort. 2l second to Dandy Khan here last week and now 6lb better off; shouldn't be far away.
11	11 \|U\| (11) (200/1 -100%) Miraflores	200 200/1(-100%)	(11) Miraflores 200/1, Again ran poorly despite the trainer being in form. Has shown no ability so far and looks up against it. Has beaten a total of two rivals in six starts; no appeal back from three months off.

DANDY KHAN outran odds of 50/1 to finish fourth over a mile here, but punters ignored the improvement and she popped up at 40/1 over C&D last week. She appeared to have something up her sleeve and might be able to force Chloe's Courage and Blue Empress to settle for supporting roles again. Groundsman offered encouragement when making the frame on his first appearance for the Mark Loughnane team and could be the primary threat.

The vote goes to GUNDOGAN who has twice run creditably for Tony Carroll and is partnered by one of the most experienced apprentices.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (1/9 +75%) Banyan	0.111111 1/9(+75%)	(6) Banyan 1/9, Promising debut when runner-up beaten 3 1/2l in a novice over 7f at Newmarket on only start; returning from a long layoff; looks effective at 7f and holds a strong chance in this weak race. Absent since promising debut in Newmarket contest 13 months ago; the clear form pick.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/2 -80%) Ted Le Saux	4.5 9/2(-80%)	(3) Ted Le Saux 9/2, Cracksman gelding; half-brother to Nate The Great, smart from 16f to 20f; dam was smart at 7f; represents a top course trainer and could be a contender in a weak maiden on debut. Half-brother to three winners; represents major stable; interesting newcomer.
3	4 3rd (4) (100/1 -25%) Belle Of Kt	100 100/1(-25%)	(4) Belle Of Kt 100/1, Ran to a modest level when comfortably held in a novice over 8f here last time; bred for middle distances and should fare better once handicapping. Meagre RPRs in a couple of AW events.
4	1 4th (1) (50/1 +24%) Marine	50 50/1(+24%)	(1) Marine 50/1, Step back from fair debut when well beaten in a novice over 8f at Southwell latest; likely to want 1m2f+; more of a handicap type. Failed to beat a rival at Southwell on Friday when back from a mammoth absence.
5th	5 5th (5) (80/1 -142%) Everest	80 80/1(-142%)	(5) Everest 80/1, No-show on Flat debut when comfortably held in a novice at Chelmsford last time; likely to need 1m4f or further on the Flat; the type to improve when handicapping. Maiden in bumpers and over hurdles; last of five at Chelmsford on Flat debut.
6th	2 6th (2) (25/1 -39%) Imperial Decision	25 25/1(-39%)	(2) Imperial Decision 25/1, Bated Breath gelding; half-brother to Imperial Aviator, smart at 10f; dam moderate at 12f; tongue-tie fitted for debut; likely to find this demanding. Sibling to three winners; wears tongue-tie on debut; market instructive.
7th	7 7th (7) (50/1 -52%) Shanty Baba	50 50/1(-52%)	(7) Shanty Baba 50/1, Poor debut when well beaten in a maiden over 8f at Southwell only start; yet to find suitable conditions; may want more time. Folded tamely and eased once beaten in 1m maiden at Southwell.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content,

As Newmarket novice events go, the race BANYAN finished second in on debut probably wasn't a strong one. The daughter of Siyouni has been off for more than a year too, but it is interesting that the Gosdens are persevering with her and she is expected to relish the rise from 7f. None of the others with experience have shown more than a modicum of ability so Cracksman gelding Ted Le Saux is fancied to provide the sternest resistance. Fellow newcomer Imperial Decision is a tentative pick for third.

Newmarket runner-up BANYAN sets a clear standard on her belated reappearance. Interesting debutant Ted Le Saux is second choice.

12:05 Clonmel 16f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	13 1st (13) (7/2 +65%) Mystic Malina	3.5 7/2(+65%)	(13) Mystic Malina 7/2, Never threatened and looked to need the run when down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Cork last time. May need more time to progress over hurdles. Point winner and not disgraced in a bumper, should be sharper for a hurdles run at Cork.
2	8 2nd (8) (7/2 +71%) Loyal Praetorian	3.5 7/2(+71%)	(8) Loyal Praetorian 7/2, Pulled up in an auction hurdle over 2m4f at Cork last time after a short break. Should be capable of better but still has a bit to prove. Point winner, some ability in bumpers, pulled up on hurdling debut, could do better now.
3	5 3rd (5) (5/4 -72%) Justatan	1.25 5/4(-72%)	(5) Justatan 5/4, Outpaced but shaped with promise when comfortably held on debut in a maiden hurdle over 2m at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m and acts on heavy ground. More to come for a shrewd yard, though may ideally need further in time. Won twice in points two seasons ago, can shown the benefit of his recent hurdle debut.
4	1 4th (1) (20/1 +60%) Barrakilla Vage	20 20/1(+60%)	(1) Barrakilla Vage 20/1, Keen and failed to find much when comfortably held in a bumper at Punchestown last time. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time and needs to show plenty more to feature. Weak form in points and bumpers and in rear on his only previous hurdles start.
5th	2 5th (2) (9/1 -38%) Button Rock	9 9/1(-38%)	(2) Button Rock 9/1, Below form when stepped up in trip and finished down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Navan most recently. Effective at around 2m to 2m4f and may be one for handicaps. Second in a point, weak hurdles form, hard to be confident despite the low standard here.
6th	7 6th (7) (125/1 -213%) Kofino	125 125/1(-213%)	(7) Kofino 125/1, No obvious excuse when comfortably held in an auction hurdle over 2m5f at Punchestown last time. Yet to show any real ability in points or under rules. No sign of ability, tailed off in a five-runner maiden at Punchestown last month.
7th	3 7th (3) (40/1 -122%) Deebert	40 40/1(-122%)	(3) Deebert 40/1, Fell in a maiden hurdle over 2m at Limerick last time when booked for midfield. Acts on heavy ground but 2m may again prove on the sharp side for him. Point winner, beaten when taking a nasty fall two out at Limerick two weeks ago.
8th	9 8th (9) (28/1 -75%) Mistyburn	28 28/1(-75%)	(9) Mistyburn 28/1, Outpaced and never threatened when down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f at Limerick last time. Effective at 2m and acts on good ground. More expected in time, likely in handicaps. Point winner, yet to shine over hurdles, could feature in this grade if finding his form.
9th	6 9th (6) (40/1 +0%) Kanpai	40 40/1(+0%)	(6) Kanpai 40/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle over 2m at Limerick latest. Wears cheekpieces for the first time and returns from a long layoff. Effective from 2m to 2m4f but inconsistent overall. Very weak form in maidens, and failed to make any impact in two handicap runs last season.
11	11 \|F\| (11) (22/1 +33%) Bangor Lady	22 22/1(+33%)	(11) Bangor Lady 22/1, Ran to form but was well beaten in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f at Limerick last time. Likely to need more time to develop. Limerick seventh was a small step in the right direction, Mistyburn behind her then.
10th	14 10th (14) (12/1 +76%) Rubi Tuesday	12 12/1(+76%)	(14) Rubi Tuesday 12/1, Outpaced and never threatened when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m at Cork last time. Needs to show more to feature over hurdles. Not a bad run in a bumper at Listowel first time out; may improve from Cork hurdles run.
11th	10 11th (10) (20/1 +39%) Uptaurintop	20 20/1(+39%)	(10) Uptaurintop 20/1, Below debut form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f at Limerick last time. Showed little in bumpers or on hurdle debut and may require further than 2m. Weak bumper form, soundly beaten in two maiden hurdles runs in October, may improve.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (100/1 +0%) Keep The Head	100 100/1(+0%)	(12) Keep The Head 100/1, Never threatened when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Fairyhouse most recently. Yet to show any worthwhile form in bumpers or over hurdles. Slight improvement noted at Fairyhouse, more needed even at this modest level.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (200/1 -100%) Glin Road Boy	200 200/1(-100%)	(4) Glin Road Boy 200/1, Made mistakes and never threatened when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m at Cork last time. Yet to find suitable conditions over hurdles and may need more time. Beaten a huge distance on both starts over hurdles, transformation needed.

JUSTATAN gets the vote in this maiden for horses that have yet to finish in the first four under Rules. The selection won both his point-to-point starts for Mick Goff and hasn't been disgraced since switching to the track this autumn, including when fifth behind Piccolo Player in a Limerick maiden hurdle. Loyal Praetorian, Mystic Malina and Mistyburn have all won between the flags and the latter attracted the attention of the stewards when finishing in mid-division behind Port Authority in a Naas maiden. Watty Show is another to consider.

Winner of his only two point-to-point starts two seasons ago, JUSTATAN has had two runs after a long absence and looks the part here

12:05 Clonmel 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

12:30 Lingfield (Class 6) 15f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (11/8 +21%) Nunc Est Bibendum	1.375 11/8(+21%)	(4) Nunc Est Bibendum 11/8, Produced her best run of 2025 when beaten 2l off 57 over 1m6f at Southwell last time. Suited by trips between 10f and 14f and acts on the all-weather. Respected after that good effort. 0-9 but ran even better than it looked when third at Southwell last time; shortlisted.
2	7 2nd (7) (8/1 -45%) Captain Robert	8 8/1(-45%)	(7) Captain Robert 8/1, Down in trip and ran to form when beaten a nose off 55 over 1m6f at Southwell last time. Effective between 10f and 14f and acts on the all-weather. Raised 2lb for that close effort. 0-7 but only beaten a nose last time; open to improvement and worth another go at the trip.
3	9 3rd (9) (11/4 +45%) Sapphire Sirocco	2.75 11/4(+45%)	(9) Sapphire Sirocco 11/4, Bit wide but ran to form to get off the mark when landing a handicap by a length off 46 here last time; effective 12-16f, acts on AW; in form and could have more to offer as stayer. Made it 11th-time lucky over C&D four weeks ago; considered off just a 2lb higher mark.
4	2 4th (2) (10/1 +75%) Further Measure	10 10/1(+75%)	(2) Further Measure 10/1, Again below spring form when beaten 7l in a 1m6f handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Effective from 14f to 17f and acts on the all-weather. In poor form and looks up against it. Lost his way after five AW wins earlier in year, but now 2lb below last winning mark.
5th	5 5th (5) (13/2 +35%) Girls Night Out	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(5) Girls Night Out 13/2, Ran to form, seeing out the longer trip when beaten 4l off 58 over 12f at Epsom last time; effective 10-12f, acts with cut; potential improver up in trip. 0-6; sister to a winner at up to 1m6f and may still have more to offer.
6th	6 6th (6) (40/1 -233%) Corsican Caper	40 40/1(-233%)	(6) Corsican Caper 40/1, Outpaced but ran to his current level when fourth, beaten 7 1/4l in a Newbury handicap last time. Trainer in form. Effective from 12f to 16f and acts on the all-weather. Consistent at this level but on a losing run. 1-23 on the AW and losing run now up to 23; others make greater appeal.
7th	3 7th (3) (28/1 +30%) The Craftymaster	28 28/1(+30%)	(3) The Craftymaster 28/1, Again below spring form when finishing down the field in a 12f handicap at Southwell last time. Blinkers on for the first time. Usually held up; effective up to 2m and acts on the all-weather. Badly out of form. Losing run up to 17; hopes pinned on a new headgear combination and return to Class 6.
8th	8 8th (8) (11/1 -38%) Smith	11 11/1(-38%)	(8) Smith 11/1, Ran to form when beaten 3l off 48 here last time. Effective up to 2m1f and acts on the all-weather. Needs a bit more to figure. Seven wins over C&D, but finished behind Sapphire Sirocco here last month.

SAPPHIRE SIROCCO showed her 25/1 C&D second was no fluke when going agonisingly close at Chelmsford, and then gained just reward for those efforts with a breakthrough success back over this track and trip. She is clearly a filly on an upward curve and can continue on that trajectory. Captain Robert came within a whisker of getting off the mark at Southwell and shouldn't remain a maiden for too much longer. Nunc Est Bibendum and Girls Night Out are interesting on the step up in distance, while Prince Quattro remains well treated compared to his hurdling mark.

The choice is PRINCE QUATTRO (nap) who has been running well on the AW lately. He shaped last time as though a return to 2m would suit.

Info	Form	Odds
1	13 1st (13) (8/1 +27%) Finnicky Filly	8 8/1(+27%)	(13) Finnicky Filly 8/1, Never travelled and did not handle the ground when comfortably held in a 2m handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Had been in good form prior; usually held up and effective at 2m on good ground. Yet to finish in the first three, has managed creditable displays at this venue.
2	15 2nd (15) (17/2 -21%) Wild Wild Wind	8.5 17/2(-21%)	(15) Wild Wild Wind 17/2, Ran to form on handicap debut when fourth, beaten 8¼l in a 2m2f handicap hurdle at Sligo. Effective over 2m; a maiden with only modest form so far. Ran well at long odds at Sligo in her first handicap, only a 4yo and may improve again.
3	12 3rd (12) (11/2 -38%) Chemdawg	5.5 11/2(-38%)	(12) Chemdawg 11/2, Ran to form in first-time blinkers when 6l third in a 2m handicap hurdle at Thurles last time. Effective from 2–3m; fair mark on flat form though this may prove a sharp enough test. Soft-ground Flat winner, 0-12 over hurdles, worth considering based on recent Thurles run.
4	16 4th (16) (12/1 +0%) Dontdooddson	12 12/1(+0%)	(16) Dontdooddson 12/1, Ran to form when comfortably held in a 2m handicap hurdle at Thurles. Effective over 2m and acts on any going; not the force of old but the handicapper has relented, though remains inconsistent. Veteran showed he retains ability with Wexford win in the summer, fair Thurles run latest.
5th	10 5th (10) (33/1 -106%) Caman Rocco	33 33/1(-106%)	(10) Caman Rocco 33/1, Outpaced and produced a poor effort when down the field in a 2m3f maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan. Off a short break; yet to show anything over 2m but comes from a good yard. In good hands with a talented claimer aboard, otherwise hard to find any positives.
6th	2 6th (2) (14/1 0%) I'm Flattered	14 14/1(0%)	(2) I'm Flattered 14/1, Travelled well but failed to find much after briefly threatening, possibly not staying when well beaten in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Punchestown. Effective at 2m; drop in trip a plus but conditions are a concern. Went up 6lb for 2m Kilbeggan win in August, not at best over 2m4f at Punchestown.
7th	14 7th (14) (20/1 +20%) Fernhill Fling	20 20/1(+20%)	(14) Fernhill Fling 20/1, Raced lazily and needed the run when well beaten in a 2m handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Blinkers on for the first time; effective over 2m but remains an exposed maiden. Had an excuse on penultimate start, poor on latest, will need to improve in blinkers.
8th	3 8th (3) (50/1 -213%) Speakasyoufind	50 50/1(-213%)	(3) Speakasyoufind 50/1, Still very green and looked in need of a stiffer test when well beaten in a 2m handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time. Usually held up; effective over 2–2¼m and may benefit from a step back up in trip. Never a factor on handicap debut at Galway in October, no better at Punchestown last month.
9th	18 9th (18) (13/2 -8%) Perzzini	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(18) Perzzini 13/2, Far too free but ran to form when beaten 10l in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Sligo. Effective at 2m and acts on soft ground; appears to be running into form after a layoff. Second reserve, maiden winner in 2023, missed last year, two ordinary runs in October.
10th	1 10th (1) (9/4 +10%) No Big Deal	2.25 9/4(+10%)	(1) No Big Deal 9/4, Scored by a head off 93 here on his penultimate start and ran to form when fourth, beaten 8l off 99 last time. Effective over 2m and acts on any going; in good form in both codes. Has been showing consistent form and is one of the more obvious candidates on that basis.
11th	9 11th (9) (33/1 -106%) Another Ocana	33 33/1(-106%)	(9) Another Ocana 33/1, Too free and needed the run when comfortably held in a 2m5f handicap hurdle at Limerick. Effective over 2–2½m and acts with cut in the ground but out of form. Has been mixing hurdling and chasing to no great effect, others have stronger claims.
12th	4 12th (4) (11/1 +8%) Bay Brook	11 11/1(+8%)	(4) Bay Brook 11/1, Slipped up in a 2m handicap hurdle at Thurles last time. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time; effective over 2m on yielding or good ground but has been struggling in handicaps. One promising maiden run as a juvenile hurdler; has failed to build on that, tongue-tie on.
13th	6 13th (6) (28/1 +30%) Scarlet Purse	28 28/1(+30%)	(6) Scarlet Purse 28/1, Ran to form but given too much to do on handicap debut when comfortably held in a 2m handicap hurdle at Limerick. Returning from a long layoff; effective over 2m but her mark demands more. Some promise when sixth on handicap debut at Limerick nearly a year ago, absent since.
14th	17 14th (17) (14/1 -133%) Redcliff Glen	14 14/1(-133%)	(17) Redcliff Glen 14/1, Ran to form but was poorly placed to challenge when well beaten in a 2m handicap hurdle at Thurles. Effective at 2m on good ground; well treated on old UK flat form but in modest form in both codes lately. First reserve, back below the mark at which he won last season, beaten favourite on latest.
15th	11 15th (11) (66/1 -100%) Invincible Oscar	66 66/1(-100%)	(11) Invincible Oscar 66/1, Poor run when well beaten in a 2m3f maiden hurdle at Naas last time. Yet to show any worthwhile ability and looks one for much further down the line. Nothing in her four runs over hurdles suggests she can make a serious impact here.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (11/1 +21%) Itsalonglongroad	11 11/1(+21%)	(8) Itsalonglongroad 11/1, Taken on up front and did too much too soon when comfortably held in a 2m handicap chase at Tramore. Enjoys making the running; off a short break and on a dangerous mark judged on chase form. Best known as a multiple Flat and chase winner, has tended to show best form at Tramore.

NO BIG DEAL had Finnicky Filly about four lengths behind when scoring over C&D on his penultimate start and didn't enjoy a clear passage when fourth at Thurles recently. The selection can reverse placings with Chemdawg, who was just over two lengths ahead in third. Oliver McKiernan's charge appears versatile in terms of trip having also been placed over 3m at Kilbeggan this summer. Wild Wild Wind was having her first start in a handicap when fourth at Sligo last time and has scope for further improvement, while I'm Flattered is another to consider.

Calum Hogan's 7lb is claim is an asset that could prove the key to a second win for the consistent NO BIG DEAL

1	3 1st (3) (5/6 +63%) The Bluesman	0.833333 5/6(+63%)	(3) The Bluesman 5/6, Probably needed the race when 25l third in a novice hurdle over 2m3f at Chepstow on latest start; tongue-tie applied for the first time; in the mix on chase debut. Maiden hurdle winner for Paul Nicholls; switched to fences for stable/handicap debut.
2	2 2nd (2) (15/2 +17%) Bowenspark	7.5 15/2(+17%)	(2) Bowenspark 15/2, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Bangor-on-Dee last time; effective at around 2 1/2m and suited by good ground; inconsistent overall but well treated on best hurdle form. Lacked fluency and was pulled up on last month's seasonal/chase debut; others preferred.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/4 -80%) As Legends Have It	2.25 9/4(-80%)	(1) As Legends Have It 9/4, Ran to form when doing best of those forcing a strong pace, possibly challenged a bit early when beaten 1 1/4l off 113 over 2m5f at Cheltenham last time; consistent in that sphere; more to come over fences; the one to beat. 0-5 over hurdles but was very creditable third of 18 at Cheltenham last month; chase debut.

Career-best form at Worcester in October but unable to land telling blow on latest outing.

The Bluesman is an intriguing contender on his stable/handicap debut in a first-time tongue-tie and it will be interesting to see how he fares in the market. Kayce Dutton failed to supplement his Market Rasen victory when only fifth on his return here, and it may pay to side with AS LEGENDS HAVE IT. The six-year-old made the frame over hurdles in a warm handicap at Cheltenham and could prove even better over fences.

Placed in a big-field handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last month, AS LEGENDS HAVE IT could be hard to beat on his chasing debut.

KNIGHT OF GLORY lost two places towards the finish when fourth on debut at Chelmsford and is likely to take a step forward from that display. With the potential for more to come, along with the booking of Rossa Ryan, he looks the way to go. Hauteluce makes appeal on paper, although the daughter of Romanised might fare better over longer trips. Hot To Hot changed hands for 20,000 euros at the breeze-ups earlier in the year and is one to watch in the betting.

A few of these have already shown ability. KNIGHT OF GLORY appears to set the standard having finished fourth on his Chelmsford debut.

STAFFORDSHIRE KNOT has returned in good form this season and confirmed the promise on his third at Naas when taking a Pertemps Qualifier in good style at Punchestown. Carl Millar keeps the ride and any further rain won't harm his chance. French Dynamite was a good servant for Mouse Morris winning seven times and recorded a big payday for current connections when landing the Munster National at Limerick. It will be interesting to see how he fares reverting to hurdles for the first time in over three years. Franciscan Rock won this race last year and was highly tried subsequently including when third in the Grade 2 Galmoy Hurdle at Gowran.

If STAFFORDSHIRE KNOT turns up in the same form as when winning at Punchestown last time he could be hard to beat

LIVY'S LAD made the perfect start for the Nick Gifford stable when victorious over track and trip last month and a 5lb rise might underestimate the level of that performance. This is just his second outing over fences and he looks the one to beat. We Got Your Back rarely runs a bad race and finished over three lengths clear of the third when runner-up at Hexham so he is respected, along with Take Centre Stage.

Not harshly treated by a 5lb rise for last month's C&D win, LIVY'S LAD (nap) could easily have a lot more to offer for his new stable.

Chico Dulce justified favouritism at Lingfield on his latest outing, but a 4lb higher mark might open the door for VILLALOBOS. Simon Hodgson's six-year-old showed more when third in first-time blinkers at Kempton in September and goes off an unchanged mark. The reapplication of the visor might bring about the improvement required to regain the winning thread. Warrnambool isn't ruled out either.

The selection is WARRNAMBOOL who very much caught the eye when third on his stable debut here last time.

SPINNINGAYARN won a point-to-point in impressive fashion for Sean Doyle before taking a Navan bumper on his debut under Rules in January. The Order Of St George gelding ran too bad to be true subsequently on very testing ground at Naas and is an interesting recruit to hurdles. That Danny Feeling has won twice in bumpers and had Parnell Street about five lengths behind in third, with Jisco Du Brem soundly beaten in eighth, when successful at Listowel last time. Terence O'Brien's charge has also been placed twice over hurdles, while Minella Emperor is also a dual bumper winner. All three reserves are from the Willie Mullins yard and merit plenty of respect if getting a run.

Typhoon Warrior stayed on to finish fourth on his debut at Worcester and may get closer, but the vote goes to THAT'LL BE OXO. The son of Blue Bresil changed hands for 42,000 euros as a three-year-old and is a half-brother to five winners, including useful bumper victor Irish Thistle. Old Habits is another who makes plenty of appeal on paper and Olly Murphy's gelding has to be of interest, especially if the market vibes are strong.

Dan Skelton's TYPHOON WARRIOR gets the nod in the hope he can build upon the promise he showed when fourth at Worcester in October.

Something to prove on AW debut after six months off; worth a market check.

LIKEALOT has produced some good efforts since her successful debut, filling the runner-up spot in four of her seven starts, most recently behind Solarize at Wolverhampton. The daughter of Camelot goes off the same rating and this looks a good opportunity to get her head back in front. Charlie's Choice was pipped over 1m2f here recently and won't have any problems with this step back up in trip. Vice President looks best of the rest.

This can go to LIKEALOT, who has been running consistently well since handicapping. She may still have further improvement in her.

Effective at 2½m and handles cut in the ground; hinted at revival latest and needs to build on that effort. On long losing run, beaten 17.5l on return from break latest, more needed.

Effective at 2½m and suited by cut in the ground; an inconsistent maiden. 0-12, latest fourth at Limerick a remote one, 2lb drop not enough to tempt.
13	13 (13) (13/2 +68%) Sidiriya	6.5 13/2(+68%)	(13) Sidiriya 13/2, Yard won this last year. Never threatened but kept on when well beaten in a 2m4f Gowran Park handicap hurdle last time. Effective from 2m to 2½m on soft ground; well handicapped on maiden form but struggling for form recently. Killarney fifth suggested this trip might suit, needs to rebound from three poor runs.
2	2 (2) (15/2 +58%) Sheriffhill	7.5 15/2(+58%)	(2) Sheriffhill 15/2, Outpaced and looked in need of a stiffer test when down the field in a 2m1f handicap chase here last time. Effective around 2m and could improve for further. Solid third here on penultimate over 2m1f, poor over fences latest, could rebound.
9	9 (9) (9/1 +25%) Roccabaker	9 9/1(+25%)	(9) Roccabaker 9/1, Made too much use of when down the field in a 2m5f handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time.

10	10 (10) (11/1 -57%) One Horse Army	11 11/1(-57%)	(10) One Horse Army 11/1, Found the mark stiff when comfortably held in a 3m4f handicap chase at Leopardstown last time. Had been in good form prior to that run; good mark on chase form; returning from a layoff and remains a possible threat. Back-to-back 3m/3m2f chase wins in January, off 275 days, trip may be too sharp on return.
16	16 (16) (14/1 +65%) Added Bonus	14 14/1(+65%)	(16) Added Bonus 14/1, Made mistakes and never threatened when well beaten in a 2m1f handicap chase here last time. Effective around 2m on any ground but has been out of form in 2025. 0-33 over hurdles, below best over fences recently, has gone well here before.

Effective at 2m on soft or good ground and has been back in form of late. Up 8lb for win on penultimate, came up short on softer ground latest, others preferred.
8	8 (8) (22/1 +33%) Ixigreczed	22 22/1(+33%)	(8) Ixigreczed 22/1, Lit up by a first-time visor and raced far too freely when down the field in a 2m handicap chase at Tramore last time.

3	3 (3) (25/1 -79%) True Destiny	25 25/1(-79%)	(3) True Destiny 25/1, Raced wide, needed the run and may have found the ground too soft when down the field in a 3m handicap hurdle at Down Royal. Effective from 2½m to 3m on soft or good ground but tricky to win with and ground conditions could again be a concern. 2-27 over hurdles, no win since June 2023, probably needs the track to dry out.
5	5 (5) (25/1 +0%) Lispopple	25 25/1(+0%)	(5) Lispopple 25/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. The trainer is in form, and he returns from a long layoff; effective around 2½m with give in the ground but form had tailed off when last seen. Pulled up twice since Roscommon win, off since Dec' 2024, can only watch.
7	7 (7) (25/1 -317%) Danesfort Mayfly	25 25/1(-317%)	(7) Danesfort Mayfly 25/1, Hampered by loose horses but improved on recent form up in trip and on testing ground when landing a 2m5f Tramore handicap by 2½l off 80 last time. Back from a long layoff; effective at 2m5f and suited by plenty of cut; arrives in form. Won off 6lb lower when last seen in Nov' 2024, could go well if ready after layoff.

Effective at 2m but yet to convince with stamina for further; handles cut and is back below his last winning mark though recent form has tailed off. Limerick winner last December, below par since return from break; reserve.
14	14 (14) (33/1 +0%) Sonny Fella	33 33/1(+0%)	(14) Sonny Fella 33/1, Pulled up in a 2m7f handicap hurdle at Limerick last time. Returning from a long layoff; effective around 2½m but out of form in handicaps. Showed little in ten starts for former yard, pulled up when last seen, best watched.
15	15 (15) (33/1 +0%) Port Rashid	33 33/1(+0%)	(15) Port Rashid 33/1, Keen and travelled well but needed the run when well beaten in a 2m Tramore handicap hurdle last time. Off a short break; effective from 2m to 2½m but inconsistent. On long losing run, should strip fitter for latest and well handicapped, not discounted.

Darragh O'Keeffe is a notable booking for MACIVER, who bids to exploit his much lower hurdles mark. He didn't run badly when fifth on his seasonal reappearance at Limerick and will like the testing conditions on offer. One Horse Army is another on an attractive hurdle rating if he returns from a lengthy break in form. Danesfort Mayfly hasn't been seen since winning at Tramore a year ago, but has to be noted.

A tentative vote goes to SHERIFFHILL who shaped promisingly here over hurdles in October before struggling over fences back here latest

LOOPING D'ARC was no match for an impressive winner, but still offered encouragement with his second in a Newbury bumper last month. The four-year-old is likely to want further in time, but this appeals as a decent opportunity to get off the mark on his hurdling bow. Moyganny Phil placed in a couple of point-to-points and commands respect on his Rules debut. Big Wigg, a Huntingdon bumper winner, and Escort'kheops are others to note.

Preference is for BIG WIGG, who darted clear of the others with a subsequent bumper/hurdle winner when winning his bumper in May.

The step up to 1m2f made the difference for MUY MUY LOCO when getting off the mark here in October and a 3lb rise doesn't appear to be overly harsh, especially given the fact he is likely to have more to come over this distance. The application of blinkers is expected to sharpen up Bintazzo, while any market support for Nekazari on his debut for George Boughey should be taken seriously.

Preference is for three-time C&D winner MASQOOL whose best form would give him every chance in a race at this level.

SPANISH JOHN was a big eye-catcher at Punchestown last month. He made up a large amount of ground to be nearest at the finish when fourth in a big-field handicap over a similar trip. Winter Carnival wasn't done with when unseating at Galway in October. If he could get back to the form of his close third at Limerick in January, he would be a significant threat. Burlington House is up in trip after a fair fifth at Navan in November and could improve on that finish in this company.

A chance is taken on the relatively unexposed BURLINGTON HOUSE who hinted that this longer trip would suit on handicap debut at Navan

Effective from 2½m to 3m on good ground and may be running into form after a layoff. Worth stepping back up in trip and well treated on old form. Drops in grade after two very respectable runs this autumn; back up in trip; shortlisted.

Out of form for Henry Daly last season and again well beaten for new stable last month.

DUEL AU SOLEIL benefited from a wind operation and stepping up in trip when making a successful handicap debut at Wetherby. Now tackling 3m for the first time, Ben Pauling's charge is expected to have more to offer, despite being raised 8lb for that victory. My Cullen stepped forward from his return when runner-up at Lingfield and he commands respect along with Eaton Anne, who may have needed the outing when a beaten favourite here last month.

The pick is class-dropper I SPY A DIVA, who wasn't beaten far on either start this autumn and will be suited by this return to 3m.

Made all at Brighton when last seen; only 1-16 on AW but gained the win over C&D.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

SHALFA was last seen in winning action at Brighton in September and the C&D winner looks to have been found a suitable opportunity off a 2lb higher mark. Tatmeen's run at Chelmsford is best ignored and the drop in trip gives him every chance to bounce back, while a return to the all-weather may see Bownder in a better light.

Being a mare who was in winning form when last seen and remains on a workable mark, SHALFA is preferred.

ONE LAST TANGO's fourth-place finishes in higher grades on his latest start at Limerick and at Leopardstown last Christmas read well in the context of this race. In addition to those runs, he has finished runner-up in two of his last four outings. Trasna Na Pairce looks a likely contender for Henry de Bromhead and Darragh O'Keeffe. Three In A Row is entitled to improve on a fourth place at Naas after an absence of almost six months.

A dual course winner over hurdles TRASNA NA PAIRCE (nap) has plenty going for him here now after a satisfactory run over a shorter trip

Trojan Sun absolutely sluiced through the Nottingham mud to supplement a Musselburgh triumph, although those victories came at 2m and beyond and he has yet to prove himself on an artificial surface. Haveyoumissedme is also probably better suited to further, but burst back into life at Redcar and has won here before. Loving Look and Machete have claims, but a chance is taken that first-time blinkers help RELOCAL recapture the form that saw him just miss over C&D in October.

Topweight MACHETE looked on the way back when third over C&D last month and that form has been advertised since.

ALAFDHAL scored at Wolverhampton before attempting to follow up under a 4lb penalty at the same track three days later. The seven-year-old went down by a neck over 6f and the drop back in trip is likely to benefit him on this occasion. Roman Spring got the better of South Shore Island over C&D last week, but the latter may reverse the form with a 5lb swing due to the winner's penalty.

Point winner and a course bumper winner, failed to win over hurdles, may do better chasing.
11	11 (11) (50/1 +24%) So They Tell Me	50 50/1(+24%)	(11) So They Tell Me 50/1, Pulled up in a 2m5f beginners' chase at Navan last time; effective around 3m but may need more time and experience in handicaps over fences. Handicap hurdle winner over a staying trip, pulled up in a strong contest on chasing debut.

QUALIMITA could make the breakthrough for Gordon Elliott and Jack Kennedy. There was merit in her third place in a Grade 2 novice chase at Punchestown last time and, prior to that, she filled the runner-up berth at Gowran. Gavin Cromwell's Glenashling looks dangerous as he has been placed in two of his three chases, while He's Gorgeous put in his best effort when second on better ground at Wexford in October.

It is probably worth siding with the hugely expensive QUALIMITA who has begun to prosper since switching to chasing.

ART GALLERY was bitterly disappointing on her Southwell introduction, but proved that running to be all wrong when coming within a neck of making it second-time lucky at Wolverhampton. Her conqueror that day has since maintained her unbeaten record and James Ferguson's filly really should be winning this. Viking Glory has been gelded since a promising fourth on his York debut and is the danger as long as there aren't any above-average newcomers, the pick of which is Raven's View.

The strongest claims are presented by Art Gallery and VIKING GLORY and the latter can build on his promising York debut.

The money came for CROWN THE FUTURE on his nursery debut at Wolverhampton last week and he didn't disappoint, landing the odds with a strong finish over 7f. On that evidence, the son of Coulsty will relish the extra furlong and the decision to turn him out again under a penalty can reap reward. Popty Ping has been edging closer towards the winner's enclosure, but may have to wait a little longer. She is still preferred to Lope Harswell for any forecast bets.

It wasn't a strong race that CROWN THE FUTURE won at Wolverhampton last week but he was well backed and shaped as though 1m would suit.

Forest Caper is the most battle-hardened of this field and sets the standard with an official rating of 73, but the one that appeals most is CERELIA. The daughter of Wootton Bassett cost 410,000 euros as a yearling and it would be no surprise to see her make an instant impression for the in-form William Haggas team. Bowfell has been gelded since his sixth on debut at Wolverhampton in April and could get closer with that experience under his belt.

Forest Caper is reliable but could prove vulnerable again. Newcomer Cerelia and the once-raced BOWFELL are viable alternatives.

UP THE AGENDA struck by a neck on his nursery debut at Yarmouth prior to finding heavy conditions against him when well beaten at Nottingham in October. If Jack Morland's juvenile can return to the form of his victory two starts ago, he could be the one to beat. Somebody was just touched off into second at Newcastle on his most recent start and has to be respected, despite a 2lb higher rating. Houndhill can beat Mister Moet home for third.

With improvement plausible, handicap debutant HOUNDHILL looks particularly interesting. Somebody is second pick.

The hat-trick seekng Coramento is bound to have his supporters, but AISLING OSCAR's effortless victory over 7f here on Thursday makes him tough to oppose. The four-year-old didn't have to come out of first gear to record that success and a similar performance will see him complete a double. Typeface was beaten a length into second over C&D last time and is the pick of the remainder.

Several runners hold strong claims on recent course form. The percentage call goes to low-mileage 3yo TYPEFACE.

Since running out an emphatic winner over C&D at the beginning of last month, JESMOND DAWN has failed by just a neck and a short head in two appearances here. Only 1lb higher than for that latest agonising defeat, compensation awaits Grant Tuer's gelding. King's School has been holding his form well and he will relish the return to his beloved Newcastle following a close-up Redcar third. Flying Fletcher is also happier here, while Asian Journey starts out for a new stable and is surely capable of better.

Flying Fletcher will appreciate the return to AW but KING'S SCHOOL has a fine record over C&D and may be able to win again.

A really competitive sprint to round out proceedings, with THUNDERSTORM KATIE taken to complete her three-timer after prevailing by the narrowest of margins at Musselburgh and this venue, with the most recent coming at the chief expense of a subsequent winner. State Of Madness couldn't quite manage to land his own hat-trick at Yarmouth, but is dangerous if transferring that form to the all-weather. Bath winner I Need Your Love also needs to show he handles the surface, whereas Kirkdale has no such worries. Throw Monsieur Kodi and Hunky Dory into the mix too.

A competitive sprint but KIRKDALE (nap) may prove himself to be a fair bit better than this mark when the cards fall right for him.
