Age: 10| Weight: 10-4| J: Robbie Colgan| T: S Lavery| OR: 84| CD

7/1

C&D winner here of this contest 12-months ago off a 7lb lower mark. Tough ask but has gone well fresh and has four place positions and two win from eight starts on heavy ground.

Form: 0/318-20

Mary Sun¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: Danny Mullins| T: W P Mullins| OR: 80

25/1

Pick of her French form makes her competitive but her three handicap runs since July have been poor. Likely to be better handicapped sorts lurking here.

Form: 38/0029

Falak^b²⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Declan McDonogh| T: G Elliott| OR: 79| D

20/1

Winner of a Carlisle 1m6f handicap in August off a 4lb lower mark. Has placed on the ground and hold strong place claims here.

Form: 3631-01

Arthurian Fame²¹

Age: 3| Weight: 9-12| J: D O'Brien| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 85

4/1

Winner of a 10f Navan maiden in June. Running well in defeat since and appears to be on a lenient mark for this step up in trip.

Form: 213402

Art Of Security⁷²

Age: 8| Weight: 9-10| J: J M Moore⁽³⁾| T: N Meade| OR: 76

8/1

Most impressive winner of a Ballinrobe hurdle when last seen (Bargy Lady second) before finishing sixth of 20 beaten 27L behind another future winner, Low Sun at the Galway festival in August. May need the run here.

Form: 7/1-3

Days Without End⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 9-10| J: Ben Coen⁽⁷⁾| T: D K Weld| OR: 76| CD

6/1

C&D winner here last month in a maiden on good to firm ground. Just 2lb higher than last handicap mark and has conditions to suit here.

Form: 223831

National Wealth^p1,t¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 9-10| J: Seamie Heffernan| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 83| BF| D

20/1

Beaten on the AW at Dundalk latest but has ben solid and consistent on turf over the summer. Yet to experience this ground but can't be completely ruled out in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 223146

The Last Indian⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-9| J: O J Orr⁽³⁾| T: A A Howard| OR: 75| BF

11/1

Beaten favourite for a Sligo novice hurdle in August. Last seen on the Flat 12-months ago in a Listowel handicap over 1m4f when second of 20. No worries on the ground and holds place claims.

Form: 00/1112-

Causey Arch⁵¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Colin Keane| T: W P Mullins| OR: 72

4/1

Not seen on the Flat for over two years and the solid 131-rated handicap hurdler could be well treated off this mark.

Form: 114798/

Circling Moon²²

Age: 4| Weight: 9-6| J: Shane Foley| T: J P Murtagh| OR: 72| C

16/1

Largely consistent in a number of starts since May. Racing 4lb higher than last winning mark. Ran well last month at Down Royal and worth a check in the betting.

Form: 612036

Ace Combat^t²²

Age: 3| Weight: 9-5| J: Wayne Lordan| T: J P O'Brien| OR: 78| BF

20/1

Winner of a Roscommon 1m2½f maiden last month beaten 12 rivals a head. Open to plenty of improvement following a 6¾L defeat at Listowel last month.

Form: 0-154

Muhaafiz⁵⁰³

Age: 6| Weight: 9-5| J: Rory Cleary| T: V T O'Brien| OR: 71

66/1

Was a fair Flat horse when trained by David Brown but hasn't quite made the same impression over hurdles when last seen over 18-months ago. Others preferred.

Form: 31800/8-

Neverushacon^p⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: N G McCullagh| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 71| C

12/1

Not disgraced in 14 starts on the Flat and will no doubt run well once again but may be prone to one or two better handicapped sorts here.

Form: 356-502

Shadagann^p¹³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-1| J: Ronan Whelan| T: M Halford| OR: 67

33/1

Winner of three of his 33 Flat starts on turf but it cannot be ignored that he is now racing 20lb lower than his last winning mark. Plenty more needed in this group.

Form: 803846

Fort Denison²³

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Billy Lee| T: C O'Brien| OR: 65

10/1

Likely to have disappointed influential owners in four dismal displays to date including on return to action at Gowran Park last month.

Form: 7/738-5

Talsara^b,t²⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 8-8| J: Killian Leonard⁽³⁾| T: T Foley| OR: 60

50/1

Winning hurdler who has had 20 starts attempting to win on the flat without success. Form doesn't warrant support here.

Form: 0-74635

Crimson Mystery⁴⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 8-7| J: Leigh Roche| T: D K Weld| OR: 66

33/1

Shamardal colt whose dam was 7f/1m winner and half-sister to very smart winner up to 1m2½f Casual Conquest. Disappointing in three career starts to date.

Form: 000

Siempre Amigos⁸¹

Age: 5| Weight: 8-6| J: C Heavey⁽¹⁰⁾| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 58| D

25/1

Forecasts

Causey Arch (4/1), Arthurian Fame (4/1), Days Without End (6/1), Laid Back Luke (7/1), Art Of Security (8/1), Fort Denison (10/1), The Last Indian (11/1), Neverushacon (12/1), Circling Moon (16/1), La Hougue (16/1), Falak (20/1), National Wealth (20/1), Ace Combat (20/1), Siempre Amigos (25/1), Mary Sun (25/1), Shadagann (33/1), Crimson Mystery (33/1), Talsara (50/1), Muhaafiz (66/1)

The Joseph O'Brien-trained ARTHURIAN FLAME can land the closing race here. The three-year-old won a 10f Navan maiden in June and while running well in defeat since, appears to be on a lenient mark for this step up in trip. Causey Arch for Willie Mullins could be another on a lenient mark, while Neverushacon, Art Of Security and Falak can battle for the remaining places.
