Course winner that won a handicap hurdle at Tramore last month. Makes chasing debut today and has decent claims if jumping well.

Winner and Tramore before two solid efforts finishing second on each occasion all over hurdles. Just as effective over fences and leading player.

8/1
Show plenty over fences to suggest a win in this sphere is on the cards. Got tired late on at Kilbeggan last time and this drop in trip looks a good move now. Player if building on recent efforts.

25/1
Average hurdler who hasn't had many chances. Makes chasing debut on the back of a weak effort at Bellestown last month and needs to do plenty more.

7/2
Has run really well in a couple of big field handicap hurdles so far this summer. Makes chasing debut today and will be a leading contender if able to translate that form to fences.

25/1
Took 17 starts to get off the mark over hurdles finally doing so in a Perth novice handicap over 3m taking advantage of some carnage at the last. Chasing debut today and needs to improve.

3/1
Running well over hurdles and fences of late finishing second on her last three starts. That form gives her major claims in this line-up.

Well held in a number chase appearances over the summer and needs to improve somewhat to trouble the judge here.

6/1
Much-improved when making winning start in handicaps at Tramore (2m, good) last month and has run with credit since. Goes chasing now and will be involved if taking to fences.

Forecasts

Native Lass (3/1), Cerealice (7/2), Moonball (6/1), Cantkidakidder (13/2), Ashjan (8/1), Loupgarou (8/1), Sonowyouno (16/1), Shes Flat Tothemat (16/1), Ard Na Carraig (18/1), Maureen's Star (25/1), Biddy Be (25/1)

Verdict

Cerealice has been running with credit in some big field hurdles this summer and will be a major player here if translating that form to fences. NATIVE LASS already has some solid efforts to her name over the larger obstacles and should be a tough nut to crack. Moonball should go well if jumping stands up.
