Bargy Lady^h¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| BF

9/4

Yeats mare, decent hurdler, was sent off favourite on chase bow at Sligo (2m1½f, good) last month, made rather too many errors however and finished 6L fourth of nine. Competitive if sharpening the jumping.

Form: 0231F4

Creation¹⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: H De Bromhead

11/4

Just a Tramore maiden hurdle win to show from eight starts over timber, though did finish close second in Listed Mares novice contest at Punchestown in April. Back from summer break, one to note going chasing.

Form: 28P62-4

Danali⁵⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: C J Orr⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs D A Love| OR: 104

20/1

Mare was just average over hurdles, falling on occasion, and didn't show a great deal in three summer chase starts for previous trainer, often jumping slowly. Unseated rider at Tramore in August. Starts for new trainer here.

Form: 0/8F-46U

Eimear¹⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: C D Maxwell| T: W Ross

50/1

Low-rated hurdler, was soon in trouble on chasing bow at Sligo last month over 2m1½f on good-ground. Unlikely to find the improvement needed here, on balance.

Make My Heart Fly^t⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: D N Russell| T: G Elliott| OR: 100

3/1

Second of five in a Gowran Park Listed contest recently over hurdles, following four-in-a-row in a number of British raids since joining this handler. Set for chase bow here.

Polar Present^p⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Donagh Meyler| T: S Fahey| OR: 123| BF

7/2

She hasn't looked a total natural in three chase starts, a sentiment rubber-stamped by a fall at Gowran Park latest. Needs to iron out her fencing.

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: R Loughran| T: R Tector

50/1

Multiple point-to-point winner, pulled up sole start under rules in a maiden Hunters Chase at Cork in April. Off since point-to-point run in May. Betting should reveal more.

Gordon Elliott landed this with Shattered Love a year ago and might have another useful mare here in MAKE MY HEART FLY. She racked up a four-timer over timber before settling for second in Listed company at Gowran Park last time and is an intriguing recruit to the chasing ranks with Davy Russell up. Bargy Lady rather spoiled her hopes on chase bow with some sketchy jumping, she can improve in the department with a longer trip giving her time to get things clearer, while Creation is another interesting chase debutante and is perhaps more of a threat than Polar Present, yet to truly convince with her jumping over these obstacles.
