2.02pm RACE 1

A hurdle for four years old and upwards, maidens at

About 2 miles 175 yards.

RACE 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.)

PREDICTION: BROSNA TOWN

VERDICT

Night Moon joined his top yard for 100,000gns but he was no great shakes on the Flat and has been absent for an awful long time. Brosna Town and Stede Bonnet are other hurdling debutants from notable operations but preference is for one with some jumping experience and HARRY’S LEGACY also ran well on the Flat here on Wednesday. Tatateo and Astelia are others with chances.[Alistair Jones] Source: Racing Post

The BoyleSports Galway Tribes Handicap Hurdle

(Generously sponsored by BoyleSports)

An extended handicap hurdle for four years old and upwards that at entry have run at least four times in hurdle races (140 = 11st 12lbs).

About 2 miles 175 yards.

RACE PREDICTOR

The Predictor is a ‘Computer Generated’

1

(including eg current form, ratings and going.) PREDICTION: STUNTMAN STEVE

RACE VERDICT

Cases can be made for plenty of these. The 4yos Last Kingdom and Autumn Twist come into the race in fine form, as does Stuntman Steve, and they all have chances. The latter horse’s stablemate Come On The Lads is another one with claims but a tentative vote goes to last year’s fifth METAMORPHEUS. He’s 7lb lower now, Danny Mullins is up and he shaped nicely on his return to hurdling over C&D earlier this week. Putapoundinthejar is another potential danger. [Dave Stephens] Source: Racing Post

RACE PREDICTOR RACE VERDICT

PREDICTION: MOUSEY BROWN

An ultra-competitive renewal. Emmett Mullins is triple-handed and So Scottish, who was second in this last year, is the most interesting of his trio off the same mark. The last time out winner Tonaghneave Well is respected, as are Chart Topper and Winning Smut but a chance is taken on WATCH THE WEATHER. He’s rated 11lb higher over fences and he was fourth in this in 2023 off 8lb higher. [Dave Stephens] Source: Racing Post

RACE PREDICTOR

VERDICT

Seeking a three-timer, Zaraahmando is sure to be popular but it is REIDH (nap) who appeals the most, given his mark is now 9lb below his C&D winning one last year and he had a pleasing run at Cartmel last time. Convincing and Storm Averted both put in good efforts on Tuesday and are not out of it. Brains is another who seems to be heading in the right direction. [Denis Harney]

RACE VERDICT

The key race could be last year’s renewal in which ORIOLE comfortably kept Alpha Capture at bay and she’s weighted to repeat the dose. The selection made a timely return to form when third last month at Tramore. Alpha Capture ran perfectly well over a much shorter trip here on Tuesday. Luker’s Tipple, a useful maiden over hurdles, could be interesting on his handicap debut on the Flat.[Alistair Jones] Source: Racing Post
