Dear Racegoer,

On behalf of all the team here at Punchestown I would like to extend a very warm welcome back to the home of Irish jump racing. Today marks the first of our jump fixtures for the 2023/2024 season and the staff have been working very hard behind the scenes to ensure the track looks impeccable!

As you arrive here today you will have seen that our flagship project, the track widening and extension is coming on great. The grass is growing and the winning post has been moved back for the widened track. We will now concentrate on embarking on phase two of the project, which is the creation of a new racecourse that will provide a one mile track with one bend to the finish line. This investment was very carefully considered as, like any additions here, it needs to work hard and serve purpose! This project provides further flexibility for Punchestown to significantly improve the existing layout of the racetrack and it will also greatly assist in accommodating our current racing programme while providing the potential for it to be further enhanced going forward.

We would like to welcome todays sponsors; Paddy Power, Irish EBF and ‘The Pubs Of Kildare’. Without the support of sponsors racing wouldn’t be possible and we are very thankful for their contribution both to Punchestown and racing overall.

To all the owners, trainers, jockeys, stable staff we would like to wish you a successful and healthy season. As the temperatures drop, the racing action heats up and our next fixture here is tomorrow, Wednesday 11 October where the GR3 Irish Daily Star Chase takes centre stage.

Hope to see you all there!

Conor O’Neill, CEO, Punchestown Racecourse

RACE 1 PREDICTOR

RACE VERDICT

Pigeon House has the most experience of these over hurdles and has improved since unseating on his hurdling debut behind Our Boy Wes, so there mightn’t be much between them on these terms. However, the first-timeout winners Cossack Chach and WODHOOH are of more interest, notably the latter who showed a fine attitude at Listowel when interfered with and can only improve from that.

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

RACE VERDICT

Gordon Elliott may have the solution to this with POUR LES FILLES whose bumper credentials look superior to those of Mister Pink. Useful Flat handicapper Morph Speed goes up in trip and can improve from his hurdling debut. Antrim Coast and Joyeux Vivo are others with winning potential. [Alan Sweetman] Source: Racing Post

RACE 7 PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’ predicted outcome of the race in visual form, generated by an algorithm of key factors (including eg current form, ratings and going.)

RACE VERDICT

Plenty with a chance here. It would seem easier to forgive ROYAL HOLLOW for a Clonmel second than to pardon Traditude Tara for a total flop at Listowel. Intertwine rates a big danger and The Twelve Pins and Doyen Lady are also worth considering. [Alan Sweetman] Source: Racing Post
