RACING 1-2-3

KEY TO SYMBOLS

Top Rated: The horse with the best chance based solely on past form, specially tailored to a 0-100 scale.

Horses For Courses: A suitable track for the horse, compared to its lifetime record on similar courses as defined by Timeform’s course data.

Jockey Uplift: The engaged rider has a notably higher Timeform Jockey Ranking than those who’ve ridden the horse on its most recent starts

Trainer Form: A hot trainer to follow, based on Timeform ratings-related measurements looking at the recent performance of runners.

Going: Soft

Fairyhouse is a wide, galloping, square right-handed track, a mile and three quarters in extent. There is a steady climb on the side away from the stands before a steady descent in the back straight. The three-furlong home straight is slightly uphill but the track is not a testing one and favours no particular type of horse. There are two chase courses, one with twelve fences to a circuit while the inner course has eight.

Pace Information: Weak

1 THE CADDY ROSE (IRE) (28) (D) s 9549P-1632P 6 11-10 | 74.4kg Noel Meade, Ireland E. Walsh (5lb/2kg) Latest win in chase at Kilbeggan in August. 11/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Cork (28f, heavy) 28 days ago. Back down in trip with cheekpieces refitted and needs to bounce back.

2 EMILY MOON (IRE) (15) 100556413-35 6 11-7 | 73.0kg Mrs J. Harrington, Ireland Robbie Power Not disgraced when fifth of 7 in Craddockstown Novices’ Chase (28/1) at Punchestown (16.2f, heavy) 15 days ago. Back up in trip for handicap debut and has good chance on pick of form.

3 ELLIE MAC (IRE) (49) (C, D) b 983P00-3013 7 11-4 | 71.7kg Henry de Bromhead, Ireland Rachael Blackmore Course winner who wasn’t discredited when third of 6 to My Sister Sarah in listed mares’ event (11/1) at Limerick (22.4f, heavy) 49 days ago. Back chasing now and enters calculations.

4 MAKE MY HEART FLY (IRE) (31) (D) t 9521545652 8 11-4 | 71.7kg Gordon Elliott, Ireland Keith Donoghue Creditable second of 8 in minor chase at Clonmel (18.1f, soft, 33/1) 31 days ago, no match for winner. Makes handicap bow and needs a couple of these to falter.

5 DONT KICK NOR BITE (IRE) (31) (D) 91223122/P-7 9 11-2 | 70.8kg Robert Tyner, Ireland M. P. Walsh Fairly useful at her best but off 10 months before only seventh of 8 in minor chase (18/1) at Clonmel (18.1f, soft) on return. Lots to prove now.

6 MEGA MINDY (FR) (19) 972321375-8 7 10-12 | 68.9kg John Joseph Hanlon, Ireland B. J. Cooper Creditable eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle (40/1) at this course (19.5f, heavy) 19 days ago. Switches to fences now and not taken lightly.

Peter Fahey, Ireland K. C. Sexton Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. 5/1, excellent second of 6 in minor chase at Ballinrobe (23f, soft) 43 days ago. Much respected on handicap bow.

8 CUSHINSTOWN FINEST (IRE) (32) (D) s 944-5323351 8 10-8 | 67.1kg Colin Bowe, Ireland Mr J. C. Gainford (7lb/3kg) Career best when winning 12-runner handicap chase (11/1) at Punchestown (19.6f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Up 8 lb so another step forward is needed.

Gordon Elliott, Ireland Gavin Peter Brouder (7lb/3kg) Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle (9/5) at Down Royal (24.4f, soft) 93 days ago. Blinkers tried now reverted to fences so she’s not dismissed.

TIMEFORM VIEW:Marginal preference in a competitive handicap is for EMILY MOON who figures on a very good mark and is taken to build on her encouraging fifth at Punchestown. Ellie Mac can boast a course win and arrives in good form so is feared most, although Robin Deuz Pois can also have a big say if the fitting of blinkers ekes out some improvement.

2 DRUID’S ALTAR (IRE) (15) 991 3 10-11 | 68.5kg Joseph Patrick O’Brien, Ireland J. J. Slevin Fairly useful Flat winner. Won 8-runner juvenile hurdle (7/1) at Punchestown (16.8f, heavy) 15 days ago. That was a good start in this code and he can improve. Yard have done well in this.

4 WYETT EARP (IRE) (5) 685 3 10-11 | 68.5kg Anthony Mullins, Ireland D. E. Mullins Modest maiden on the Flat. Down the field in Punchestown juvenile hurdle on Tuesday. Impossible to fancy in this grade.

TIMEFORM VIEW:MILAN NATIVE paid late on for trying to mix it with Minella Indo in a Grade 3 at Wexford last month and can get back on the up now returning to handicap company. Brace Yourself’s opening mark looks a fair one, so he’s a player, as is Punchestown winner Chavi Artist.

1 BACARDYS (FR) (262) (D) 947F6/21243- 9 11-12 | 75.3kg

W. P. Mullins, Ireland P. Townend Won Navan Grade 2 before chasing home Honeysuckle in this 12 months ago. Last seen finishing a good third in Stayers’ Hurdle at Cheltenham in March but Ronald Pump was 3 lengths ahead of him.

2 BEACON EDGE (IRE) (35) 8514/3122-11 6 11-12 | 75.3kg Noel Meade, Ireland Sean Flanagan Useful hurdler who readily notched a first Graded success at Galway last month but he’ll need to step up a good bit on that bare form to seriously trouble Honeysuckle.

3 CRACKING SMART (FR) (21) (C, D) b+t 91F8P7514-F 8 11-12 | 75.3kg Gordon Elliott, Ireland M. P. Walsh Smart hurdler but was well held when falling last in Navan Grade 2 on his reappearance 3 weeks ago. Will need to leave that run behind.

4 FURY ROAD (IRE) (14) (C, D) t 891/311143-1 6 11-12 | 75.3kg Gordon Elliott, Ireland J. W. Kennedy Improved when close third in Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham (3m, soft) on final run last season and returned with a win in 21.5f Punchestown Grade 2 14 days ago. Should give another good account.

5 RONALD PUMP (21) (C, D, BF) t 9311/12242-F 7 11-12 | 75.3kg Matthew J. Smith, Ireland Keith Donoghue Very smart hurdler who was an excellent 2 lengths second (Bacardys third) to Lisnagar Oscar in Stayers’ Hurdle at Cheltenham (3m, soft) in March. In contention when falling last on return.

6 SUPASUNDAE (14) (D) s+t 83271/247-55 10 11-12 | 75.3kg Mrs J. Harrington, Ireland Robbie Power Excellent servant to connections over the years but doubts as to whether he’s anything like the force of old as he approaches his 11th birthday having finished well-held fifth on both runs this term.

7 HONEYSUCKLE (264) (CD) 1001111/1111- 6 11-5 | 72.1kg Henry de Bromhead, Ireland Rachael Blackmore Beat Barcadys by 9 lengths when winning this last year and extended her unbeaten hurdle record to 8 when accounting for Benie des Dieux in Mares’ Hurdle at Cheltenham in March. Can’t oppose.

BETTING FORECAST:4-7 Honeysuckle, 8-1 Ronald Pump, 9-1 Fury Road, 12-1 Bacardys, 16-1 Beacon Edge, 33-1 Cracking Smart, 33-1 Supasundae

TIMEFORM VIEW:It’s impossible to get away from HONEYSUCKLE who beat one of the best mares of recent times in Benie des Dieux when making it 8-8 over hurdles at Cheltenham in March and can land this race for the second year in succession on her return to action. Stayers’ Hurdle 2-3 Ronald Pump and Barcadys can battle it out for minor honours with recent Punchestown Grade 2 scorer Fury Road.

W. P. Mullins, Ireland J. S. McGarvey 6/1, below form fifteenth of 24 in handicap hurdle at Cheltenham (16.8f, good to soft). Off 8 months. Needs to return better than ever if he’s to compete.

7 GETAWAY GORGEOUS (IRE) (29) (D) h 972221-2125 6 10-11 | 68.5kg

W. P. Mullins, Ireland P. Townend 10/3, creditable 7¾ lengths fifth of 17 to Cayd Boy in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.4f, heavy) 29 days ago. Trainer going well. Remains of interest.

10 SCHEU TIME (IRE) (30) (D) t 9643-257413 7 10-10 | 68.0kg James A. Nash, Ireland Gavin Peter Brouder (7lb/3kg) Latest win in chase at Galway in October. 11/2, creditable third of 13 in handicap chase at Down Royal (16.4f, soft) 30 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Not discounted.

11 HYBERY (FR) (29) (D) t 95996P-1427 6 10-6 | 66.2kg

W. P. Mullins, Ireland D. J. Mullins Winner in hurdle at Wexford in August. 16/1, creditable 8¾ lengths seventh of 17 to Cayd Boy in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.4f, heavy) 29 days ago. Bit to find.

Hooded for 1st time, good third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, heavy, 5/1) 14 days ago. Not long with this yard, so may yet have more to offer.

TIMEFORM VIEW:DROP THE ANCHOR might well have beaten Cayd Boy had he not come down 2 out at Down Royal last time so, on 9 lb better terms, he’s taken to make amends. His old rival is very much going the right way and still ranks as a big player, as does the well-treated Eclair de Beaufeu.

TIMEFORM VIEW:The trio with experience don’t set the bar too highly, so this can go to Gordon Elliott’s newcomer GRAND PARADIS. Connections also have Champagne Sparkles and he looks another likely sort on paper, while San Salvador ran to a fair level when sixth at Naas in February first time up and he should improve on that effort.
