Agusta Gold24
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-5| J: Danny Mullins| T: Ms M Mullins| BF
5/6
Heavy ground bumper winner at Tramore and finished runner-up on her last two starts over hurdles. Ground should suit and a leading player down in trip.
2
Horse silk
16/1
Maiden winner on the Flat in May last year. Held on all three hurdles starts since joining this yard and others hold stronger claims.
3
Horse silk
Steelyeyed37
Age: 4|  Weight: 11-0| J: J B Kane(5)| T: P Martin
25/1
Dual winner on the Flat but struggled in recent starts and beaten 27L on only previous start over jumps. Probably best watched at present.
4
Horse silk
33/1
Failed to figure in four starts in bumpers most recently on debut for this yard at Roscommon (good) last month. Others make more appeal on hurdling debut.
5
Horse silk
Dalouga24
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-11| J: M A Enright| T: G Elliott
5/2
Finished runner-up on four of her five starts in bumpers. Drop in trip should suit having finished sixth over an extended 2m6f at Killarney (good) on last months hurdling debut following an absence.
6
Horse silk
50/1
Struggled in four starts so far and beaten 31L in a maiden hurdle at Wexford (good) in June. Probably best watched on this occasion.

Age: 5|  Weight: 10-11| J: K J Brouder(7)| T: Miss K Brown
100/1
Pulled up on hurdling debut at Galway (2m5f, yielding-to-soft) recently and much more needed dropping slightly in distance if she's to take this contest.
8
Horse silk
Milomynit65
Age: 5|  Weight: 10-11| J: A E Lynch| T: H De Bromhead
8/1
Signs of ability in two starts so far but beaten 38L last time and likely to be of more interest once tackling handicaps.
9
Horse silk
Jeremys Dream
Age: 4|  Weight: 10-9| J: A Ring| T: G Elliott
12/1
Unraced daughter of Jeremy bought for €21,000 as a three-year-old last August. Half-sister to useful performer A Doll In Milan among others and worth a check in the market on debut.
Beaten a minimum of 36L in two good ground maiden hurdles at Punchestown in the spring. Likely to struggle once more.

Forecasts

Agusta Gold (5/6), Dalouga (5/2), Milomynit (8/1), Jeremys Dream (12/1), Perfect In Pink (16/1), Longtimesincejaspr (25/1), Steelyeyed (25/1), Coasting Along (33/1), Derecho Storm (50/1), Golily (100/1)

Verdict

DALOUGA had good form in bumpers and having made a fair start to her hurdling debut she can take this opening maiden contest. Agusta Gold finished in front of the selection last time out and can take second here while third place can go the way of Jeremys Dream who is a stablemate of the selection and is making her racecourse debut.
  1. Dalouga
  2. Agusta Gold
  3. Jeremys Dream
