10/1
Maiden after nine starts and well held over hurdles so far in 2017. Better effort when fifth in a Wexford (good) maiden event last time but others preferred today.

Easily his best effort in five starts to date When finishing 7½L fourth of 15 in a first time tongue tie at Ballinrobe (good) over 2m1f a month ago. Outclassed subsequently and unseated rider early on last time out.

Maiden after seven starts including in five over hurdles. Finished eight in first time blinkers (retained) off a mark of 92 last time and others are preferred in this.

3/1
Finished fourth of nine at Clonmel (soft-to-heavy) at a big price over 2m in March. Interesting to see if he can build on that on his fifth starts over hurdles in this.

Well beaten in all five starts over hurdles including in handicap company last time. Represents a leading yard and wears cheekpieces for the first time here so not written off completely.

9/1
Signs of ability when finishing fifth on bumper debut at Fairyhouse (good-to-yielding) in April but well held subsequently and brought down at the first on hurdles debut earlier this week. Wears cheekpieces for the first time today.

Maiden after ten starts and fallen on two of his four hurdles starts. Well held when falling at Clonmel (good) last time and likely best watched here.

Yet to place in 12 starts including 11 over hurdles. Pulled up at Wexford (good) over an extended 2m4f last time and probably best watched in this.

50/1
Finished 12L fourth in a bumper over 2m here on good ground last August. Disappointing since and brought down on second hurdles start at Punchestown (good) last month.

Yet to trouble the judge in four starts though the best of those came when eighth over C&D on her penultimate start in April. Beaten 117L at Downpatrick last time though.

Age: 4|  Weight: 10-12| J: R P Treacy(5)| T: L Young| OR:  85
33/1
Failed to place in seven starts including four for this stable. Well beaten in all three starts over hurdles and likely to struggle in this.

Forecasts

Chapelier (3/1), Banquet Hill (4/1), Silent Sun (13/2), California Soul (8/1), Pat's Pearl (9/1), Oath Breaker (9/1), Ocean Explorer (9/1), Ballinahow Bill (10/1), Jouxplane (14/1), Sally Wing (25/1), Ayelya (33/1), Elegant Approach (33/1), Jazz Mine (50/1)

Verdict

BANQUET HILL ran well to finish fourth at Ballinrobe a month ago and can take this event on his fourth start over hurdles. The selection had a subsequent winner directly behind him on that occasion and can get the better of Oath Breaker who represents a leading stable here while Chapelier, fourth at Clonmel last time can claim third.
  1. Banquet Hill
  2. Oath Breaker
  3. Chapelier
