2/1
Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles, opened account second time of asking over fences at Kilbeggan (2m4f, good) in August and seems likely to be suited by this further test of stamina now

12/1
Tends to race lazily, though defied that trait by rallying late to get up close home at Sligo (3m½f, good) nine days ago for first chase success on tenth attempt. Up 5lb and not one for maximum faith just yet.

10/3
Chase winner at Kilbeggan (2m4f, good) in August off mark of 113, since run well off increased mark over timber at Killarney (2m6f, good) when finishing second of 12. Entitled to throw hat in the ring back over these obstacles.

6/1
Tends to find winning hard over fences, with 1-18 record backed up with eight further placed efforts. 3lb higher than when second at Tramore in August (2m6f, good) on previous chase start, cheekpieces added now and likely goes well.

2/1
Mare hasn't looked a total natural in two chase starts, though recovered from early blunder at Sligo recently to finish just over 5L down in third of nine. Up in distance here and there could be plenty more to come.

Forecasts

Judgement Day (2/1), Polar Present (2/1), Miss Sapphire (9/4), Lasoscar (10/3), Na Trachtalai Abu (6/1), Justmemyselfandi (12/1)

Verdict

JUDGEMENT DAY opened his account over fences at Kilbeggan in August and looks certain to be suited by the extra emphasis on stamina now. Henry De Bromhead's team are in good order and he can go in again. Miss Sapphire has already scored in this sphere and is another that should relish this examination. None of these are ruled out, with Na Trachtalai Abu a magnet for place money and likely to give his usual solid effort with scoring while Polar Present is a potential improver.
  1. Judgement Day
  2. Miss Sapphire
  3. Na Trachtalai Abu
