8/1
Point-to-point winner in May 2016 and off the mark over hurdles at the fourth attempt when winning over an extended 2m4f at Wexford (good) last month. Likely to appreciate the step up in trip and wears a tongue tie for his chasing debut.

7/1
Point-to-point winner and successful in a bumper and a hurdle at this track. Hurdle success came over 2m7f on good ground when last seen in action back in August and likely to play a leading role on chasing debut.

20/1
Maiden after 14 starts and a faller when making his chase debut at Killarney (good) over 2m1f last month. Beaten over hurdles since and probably best watched.

50/1
Maiden after six starts and beaten 96L when making his chasing debut over 2m4f at Down Royal (good-to-firm) last month. Others make more appeal.

20/1
Finished 13L fifth of 11 over an extended 2m5f at Tramore (good-to-firm) when making his chasing debut earlier this month. Remains a maiden after 11 starts and likely to struggle here.

Recorded a treble over hurdles last year including twice over 2m5f but well held in two runs over fences last month. Beaten 22L into fourth at Punchestown (good) over 2m last time out and steps up in trip here.

6/1
Tongue tie left off when sent off favourite prior to being pulled up over 2m3f here on chasing debut last month but fared better with it reapplied when finishing runner-up over 2m1f at Clonmel (good-to-yielding) subsequently. Interesting runner today.

Maiden after eight races and beaten 120L on chase debut at Kilbeggan (good-to-yielding) last time. Others make more appeal today.

Placed three times from seven chase starts so far and ran well when finishing a close third on debut for this yard off a mark of 106 at Punchestown (good) last month. Interesting runner in this contest.

Only limited promise in six outings so far and beaten 109L in a handicap hurdle over 3m at Cork (good) last month. .Probably best watched on chase debut.

Handicap hurdle winner off a mark of 102 at Limerick (soft) over 2m6f in April. Pulled up at Cork (good) subsequently and an interesting runner on chasing debut receiving plenty of weight from all of her rivals today.

Forecasts

Ocean Glandore (5/2), Jack Slade (6/1), Billy Flight (6/1), Pahaska (7/1), Bertie Bell (7/1), Artical Eleven (8/1), Mr Mulliner (8/1), Fleurys Fort (14/1), Forever Dylan (16/1), Salsa Sensation (16/1), Fenlon's Hill (20/1), Kalinite (20/1), Billy De Kid (20/1), Don't Be Hasty (50/1), Kutitout (66/1)

Verdict

Dual course winner BERTIE BELL can make a winning chase debut for local trainer Brian Hamilton. The second of those successes came in a maiden hurdle here last October and he can take this on his first outing since. Artical Eleven is another to have won over hurdles last time and he is taken to finish second ahead of Forever Dylan who is likely to fare better than when making his chasing debut last time.
  1. Bertie Bell
  2. Artical Eleven
  3. Forever Dylan
