Ravenhill⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: D N Russell| T: G Elliott

1/1

Defied long-odds at Downpatrick last month when finishing second of 15 beaten 9L in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f before losing his maiden tag at the same course earlier this month over 2m5½f. Another bold show looks likely.

Form: 21/4P-21

Reach Up^t⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: T N Brett⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 113

8/1

Won a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle in April but found the move in to novice company tough suffering a 29L defeat at Kilbeggan last month. Tough ask.

Form: 546F1-5

Steelambition^t²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr L P Gilligan⁽⁷⁾| T: P W Flynn| OR: 116

10/1

Plenty to like about his win in a Tramore maiden hurdle beating Buck The Trend ½L earlier this month. Another bold show expected.

Form: P471-61

Freewheelin Dylan^t¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: C D Maxwell| T: D A McLoughlin

13/8

Distance winner of a Listowel hunter chase 12-months ago and may have needed the run on hurdling debut at Wexford earlier this month. Worth another chance here.

Form: 2150P-4

Ask Dee²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: P E Corbett⁽³⁾| T: P W Flynn

100/1

Failed to finish in two grim point-to-point performances before being tailed off in a Ballinrobe bumper on rules debut last month. Unlikely to play a part in the finish.

Form: PP/0

Sadhbh's Delight²²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: J J Slevin| T: M McCabe

66/1

Not disgraced in four point-to-point starts. Hard to fancy until she shows signs of ability under rules and may find this a tough debut.

Form: 6-554

Forecasts

Ravenhill (1/1), Freewheelin Dylan (13/8), Reach Up (8/1), Steelambition (10/1), Sadhbh's Delight (66/1), Ask Dee (100/1)

The Gordon Elliott-trained RAVENHILL lost his maiden tag at Downpatrick earlier this month over 2m5½f and can continue his progress here by landing the spoils from another possible improver and last time out winner Steelambition. Distance victor Freewheelin Dylan can pose the biggest threat to the front two.
