Comes here on a hat-trick of successes following wins at Limerick and Tipperary in July. Yard in good form and likely to go well once again.

Winner on handicap chasing debut here over 2m4f in June. Beaten since including a concerning 28L defeat at Tipperary in July. Needs to bounce back.

121-rated handicap hurdler who won a Ballinrobe contest last month over timber. Sure to be well versed for chasing debut and worth a market check.

Disappointing beaten favourite when finishing 23L adrift of the winner in a Down Royal handicap hurdle when last seen in May. Watching brief in this company on chasing bow.

Forecasts

Arcenfete (11/4), Classic Theatre (3/1), Icario (3/1), Polar Present (9/2), Miss Sassie (9/2)

Verdict

Could turn out to be a battle royal between a pair of Henry De Bromhead rivals here, ARCENFETE possibly ran to a higher mark than that of Classic Theatre when winning on chasing debut at Roscommon last month. The Gordon Elliott-trained Icario looks set to hit the frame on his chasing introduction.
  1. Arcenfete
  2. Classic Theatre
  3. Icario
