16/1
Promising hurdler for his previous trainer, but seems to have lost his way and only a little encouragement from his last run on the AW at Dundalk. Best watched until showing signs of a revival.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-5| J: D Robinson(5)| T: W F Codd| OR:  117
15/8
Four wins in 18 hurdles starts and generally consistent. Ran well in a hot race at Punchestown last time and, in slightly calmer waters, must have a sound each-way chance.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-4| J: Danny Mullins| T: J P Ryan| OR:  116
16/1
Was in good form last summer, when he won twice, but has not been the same force since and was some way behind Tellthemnuttin last time. Hard to fancy on that display.

Age: 14|  Weight: 11-2| J: Ruby Walsh| T: J Nash| OR:  114
14/1
Better known for his exploits over fences, he tries his luck back in handicap hurdle company. Jockey booking catches the eye, but it is hard to see this one winning at his age even though his hurdles rating is 11lb lower than over fences.

Capture The Drama7
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-1| J: A Ring(3)| T: Aengus King| OR:  113
8/1
Has been enjoying a good time of it over fences, including when winning a novices' handicap at this track in March. Switches back to hurdles and can make a bold bid.

Tawseef29
Age: 9|  Weight: 10-12| J: Rachael Blackmore(3)| T: C Bowe| OR:  110
8/1
Only one win in 24 starts over hurdles and limited promise when last seen at this course last month. Down 2lb, but may need more help than that from the handicaper.
7
Horse silk
Usurp29
Age: 6|  Weight: 10-12| J: B J Cooper| T: G Elliott| OR:  110
12/1
Did not seem to improve for the step up in trip when a distant fourth to Tellthemnuttin at this track on his last start. Respected connections persist with the stamina angle so it may be too soon to be writing him off.
8
Horse silk
Mister First41
Age: 11|  Weight: 10-9| J: D J Hand(7)| T: R Hennessy| OR:  107
12/1
More successful over fences than hurdles, but shaped well when runner-up at Downpatrick in March and the extra distance of this contest should suit. Each-way claims.

Burning Issues29
Age: 10|  Weight: 10-7| J: J P O'Sullivan(7)| T: T James| OR:  105
14/1
Two wins in 16 starts over hurdles and, although not the force of old, he has dropped to a more realistic mark. Acts on good ground and has a chance.

Horse silk
Cootamundra242
Age: 14|  Weight: 10-7| J: Donagh Meyler(3)| T: J A Berry| OR:  105
33/1
Veteran performer who has been beaten huge distances on his last three outings and is impossible to support on the back of those efforts.

Horse silk
Definite Soldiert16
Age: 8|  Weight: 10-7| J: B T O'Connell| T: P Croke| OR:  105
7/1
Well beaten in two races since moving to his current stable, but won a chase off a higher mark at this track in October and has a preference for a sound surface. One to consider.

Horse silk
Cresus De Grissayt191
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-5| J: E O'Connell(7)| T: P Nolan| OR:  103
12/1
Third in a maiden hurdle at this course in October, but has done little in three starts since. Steps up in trip and is tongue tied for the first time.

Horse silk
High Nelliep120
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-2| J: C A Landers(7)| T: M J Bowe| OR:  100
12/1
No wins in 17 starts over hurdles, so nothing in her record to suggest she is up to winning this. Cheekpieces are tried for the first time as connections look for a solution to her drought.

Forecasts

Tellthemnuttin (15/8), Definite Soldier (7/1), Tawseef (8/1), Capture The Drama (8/1), High Nellie (12/1), Mister First (12/1), Cresus De Grissay (12/1), Usurp (12/1), Burning Issues (14/1), Your Busy (14/1), Tigroney (14/1), Sheamus (16/1), Bitview Colin (16/1), Cootamundra (33/1)

Verdict

Several of these have to prove their worth over this trip, but TELLTHEMNUTTIN is a C&D winner who is on the upgrade and ran a fine race in a hot contest last time. Definite Soldier has claims on a surface he should enjoy, while it is interesting that connections persevere with Usurp over this trip so he warrants respect.
  1. Tellthemnuttin
  2. Definite Soldier
  3. Usurp
