Age: 5|  Weight: 12-0| J: Katie Walsh| T: J Nash
9/2
Shaped with some encouragement when a 10L third of 13 behind Lighthouse Warrior in a bumper at Punchestown (2m, good) on his debut in May. May just lack the scope of some of his rivals, however.

16/1
Beaten 13½L when making his debut in a bumper at Tramore (good) but soundly beaten in a better event at Punchestown next time and unlikely to be up to winning this.

Chateauneuf Du Pap21
Age: 5|  Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D G Lavery(3)| T: A Mullins
11/1
Has had five chances already in the bumper sphere, showing best form to date when a 12L third over 2m at Wexford in June on his penultimate start. Below that level over 2m4f at Downpatrick last time.

7/4
Ran above expectations to finish fourth on his debut in a bumper at Fairyhouse in April and backed that up with a similar performance behind Poet Power here earlier in the week. Sets the standard and big chance if this race hasn't come too soon.

25/1
Definite Article gelding out of an unraced dam who is a half-sister to the useful staying hurdler/chaser Railway Dillon. Changed hands for less than €1,000 in April and not an obvious contender with his yard quiet.

Peacocks Secret57
Age: 5|  Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: E Mullins
6/4
Unlucky not to have already bagged a NH Flat event, having gone close on three consecutive occasions, most recently when just edged out by Suncroft over 2m at Wexford (soft) in June. Obvious claims.
7
Horse silk
Twodoorsdown18
Age: 6|  Weight: 12-0| J: Mr R W Barron(7)| T: M Cullinane
33/1
Cost a mere €3,000 as a foal and was unfancied for his debut at Sligo recently, showing a modicum of promise in finishing a 25L sixth of 10 behind Royal Zorro. Entitled to come on for that experience.

Forecasts

Peacocks Secret (6/4), Dayna Moss (7/4), All Good Things (9/2), Chateauneuf Du Pap (11/1), Balinaboola Steel (16/1), Global Guide (25/1), Twodoorsdown (33/1)

Verdict

Not a strong finale and, providing DAYNA MOSS has recovered from the exertions of finishing fourth in a much stronger event earlier in the week, this race would appear his for the taking. If the race has come too soon, Peacocks Secret looks best equipped to profit after a few near misses already, with All Good Things looking the pick of the remainder.
  1. Dayna Moss
  2. Peacocks Secret
  3. All Good Things
