6/1

Failed to complete the last twice including when falling in a beginners chase at Tramore (yielding) last month. Worth a check in the market on handicap debut.

8/1

Rewarded for his consistency this season when winning over an extended 2m6f at Limerick (good) in July but pulled up off this 6lb higher mark over C&D 12 days later. Worth a check in the market today.

7/1

Finished runner-up three times in this sphere during the spring including when beaten a neck behind Cecil Corbett at Downpatrick (good) over an extended 2m7f on his penultimate outing. Well held last time but remains of interest in this.

8/1

Well beaten second of four on final beginners chase start in March and similarly well held on handicap debut at Sligo (yielding-to-soft) over an extended 2m1f last month. Wears a tongue tie for the first time and steps up markedly in trip today.

Age: 10| Weight: 10-7| J: Robbie Colgan| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 112

13/2

Running well in recent starts including when finishing runner-up over C&D on good-to-yielding ground on his return to fences last time out. Raised 3lb for that effort and represents a stable with a 29% strike-rate (2/7) of late.

Form: 5F-P442

Age: 12| Weight: 9-11| J: C D Maxwell| T: S Nolan| OR: 102

14/1

SOME DRAMA has been in good form recently and can register a second victory over fences having finished runner-up over C&D last time. Trainer Dermot McLoughlin has his horses in good form at present and the selection is taken to get the better of Teacher's Pet who is likely to find this trip more to her liking having run over much shorter of late while Net D'ecosse who has been running well over slightly shorter of late can claim third in this contest.
