On The Fringe21
Age: 13|  Weight: 12-3| J: Miss A B O'Connor(7)| T: E Bolger| OR:  136| D
4/1
Popular veteran who is now without his regular jockey. Best days are clearly behind him but the gallant 13-year-old keeps on giving plenty.

Minella For Valuev21
Age: 12|  Weight: 11-11| J: Mr D L Queally(3)| T: D Queally| OR:  134| C| D
4/5
Pulled up in the Foxhunters at the Cheltenham festival weakening before three out. Ahead of On The Fringe when winning at Killarney last month. Likely to be a warm order here.

Horse silk
Vinnie Luckp9
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-11| J: Mr D G Lavery(3)| T: D M Christie| OR:  120| D
12/1
Modest 107-rated hurdler and boast a 121 mark over the larger obstacles. Solid point-to-point performer but more required here.
4
Horse silk
Aughnacurraveel9
Age: 14|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr M J O'Connor| T: T Cummins| OR:  109| D
33/1
Popular and game veteran who is regressing of late. Modest in the point-to-point ranks and is a lowly rated 114 over fences.

Horse silk
Black Bennyt21
Age: 13|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: P Maher| OR:  131| C| D
28/1
Course winner who has also won over this trip. Won a point-to-point in April but best days under rules are clearly behind him.
6
Horse silk
Sandycove Islandh,t8
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr D T Atkinson(7)| T: R J Tierney| OR:  97| D
33/1
Possibly got stuck in the mud on his most recent hunter chase start in April but has pieces of form on this ground from last year finishing second of seven at Cork over 2m4f. Worth a market check.
7
Horse silk
Spud's Trouble17
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr S Cavanagh(7)| T: Adrian Mcallister| D
20/1
Managed to win a point-to-point before a promising third of nine in a Downpatrick hunter chase last month but hard to see him making any significant impact in this company.

Horse silk
Valco De Touzainet232
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr M J O'Hare(5)| T: P M J Doyle| OR:  140| D
5/1
Former Paul Nicholls in mate who never quite lived up to expectations. Not seen since October last year and best watched on stable debut.
9
Horse silk
Victory Gypt28
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-7| J: Mr P C Bannon(7)| T: D A McLoughlin| D
50/1
Winner of one of his six point-to-point starts which came last in April over 3m. Doesn't jump well enough to be considered here.
10
Horse silk
Jodies Miss57
Age: 9|  Weight: 11-0| J: Mr E P O'Brien(7)| T: E McCarthy| D
18/1
Well held looking one pace in two hunter chase appearances over a year ago. Hard to see him making any significant impact here on stable debut.

Forecasts

Minella For Value (4/5), On The Fringe (4/1), Valco De Touzaine (5/1), Vinnie Luck (12/1), Jodies Miss (18/1), Spud's Trouble (20/1), Black Benny (28/1), Aughnacurraveel (33/1), Sandycove Island (33/1), Victory Gyp (50/1)

Verdict

An encounter that should really be between the gallant old-timer On The Fringe and his battled-hardened counterpart MINELLA FOR VALUE who can confirm superiority here. Vinnie Luck and Sandycove Island who have pieces of form scattered around can challenge for the remaining place.
  1. Minella For Value
  2. On The Fringe
  3. Sandycove Island
