Hard to see this one removing his maiden tag here although he wasn't beaten far in a similar race a couple of starts back at Leopardstown. With an overall record of 0/19 though he's probably best passed over here.
Well beaten in low grade handicap hurdles of late and well below form this season and hard to see him getting involved here even with the tongue-tie tried for the first time.

One of the more consistent types in this race and has won a couple of times over hurdles most recently at Thurles in November. Run consistently since then without winning but hard to see him getting involved here.
Does have a couple of decent runs against his name at this track over hurdles (the best was as runner-up to Cheltenham winner Penhill). Probably flattered by that form and not shown much of late.
A top-class performer who has won a bumper and six hurdles including a Grade 1 for these connections. In foal at the moment and third on her Flat debut with that form having already been franked and comes here off the back of a third in the Galway Hurdle.

Has just one win to her name a handicap hurdle here over 2m5f off a mark of 82 but failed to follow up that win off a 6lb higher mark. Has continued in good heart but hard to see her winning here with her overall record and others are preferred.
Her good recent form will stand her in good stead and this trip should suit having been a consistent performer. She's already a bumper winner and shaped well on her first Flat start when fourth at Galway over 1m4f and looks the likely danger to Airlie Beach.

11/1
Has history in this race having come second and third in it in previous years although the race looks to be a stronger one this time around. Her last run was a poor one and it may well be a place chance is the best she can be given this time around.
An overall record of 0/20 doesn't bode well although she does have some reasonable form over hurdles but had underperformed of late. Hard to see her breaking her maiden in this given her recent form.
Her second career run saw her take a bumper over C&D and she's turned in a reasonable couple of efforts of late. Makes her Flat debut today and should run a respectable race without being able to beat the major players.

8/1
From a leading yard she's already shown form at this track having run in France before transferring to her current yard. Not really progressing at a rate of knots but it won't be a total surprise to see her run into the places.

Forecasts

Airlie Beach (3/10), Decision Time (5/1), Mais Si (8/1), Do Try Dolly (11/1), Kilbarry Marien (14/1), Game Puppeteer (18/1), Field Robin (25/1), Courtin Bb (33/1), Batchelors Walk (50/1), Ciaoifsin (50/1), Racing Again (66/1)

Verdict

Nothing can touch the form of AIRLIE BEACH in this and she should be able to sign off her career with a win after a fine effort over hurdles at Galway. Decision Time is the obvious danger with Mais Si, Do Try Dolly and Kilbarry Maiden three who may be scrapping it out for the minor placing.
  1. Airlie Beach
  2. Decision Time
  3. Do Try Dolly
