All's Quiet^t¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Keith Donoghue| T: A McGuinness| OR: 116| BF

8/1

Endured difficulties here last month when badly hampered at the start, recovering to finish third of five before an encouraging second of 10 at Fairyhouse earlier this month. Entitled to be shortlisted.

Form: 33F332

Allardyce¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: L P Dempsey| T: E J O'Grady| OR: 112

8/1

Won a Limerick maiden hurdle in April before a number of below par handicap starts in the spring. Can be expected to go well following promising chasing debut at Fairyhouse earlier this month but 4L adrift of All's Quiet.

Form: 210-783

Cowboy Des Long^b¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: A McCurtin⁽³⁾| T: J J Mangan| OR: 112| BF

22/1

Five-race chase maiden who was a disappointing beaten favourite when pulled up at Fairyhouse earlier in the month. Needs to improve on even his best form.

Form: 320-72P

Danse Away^p²²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny Mullins| T: T J Nagle-Jr| OR: 102| C

12/1

Winner of two of his 11 hurdle starts achieving a rating of 101 following a win here in March. Best watched on debut over the larger obstacles from a yard not renowned for their chasers.

Form: 25511-4

Doldido⁶⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: J S McGarvey| T: M Winters| OR: 104

10/1

Nothing to take from his four career chase starts despite finishing in the frame on a couple of occasions. Will need to raise overall profile to play a part in the finish.

Form: 0330-75

Dundeedy Lad³³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr J C Canavan⁽⁷⁾| T: R Tyner| OR: 92| BF

33/1

92-rated hurdler, one from 12 over timber. Yard have had a single winner from 19 chase starts this term and this Kapgarde gelding may need more time.

Form: 3-40P19

Guided By You²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Flanagan| T: N Meade| OR: 103| C

5/1

Held up in rear, eventually keeping on after the last to finish a remote third of nine on a pleasing chase debut at Galway last month. Would not have to improve much for top yard to land a blow in this company.

Form: 20P-053

Last Man Standing²³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: G N Fox| T: M F Morris| OR: 116

10/1

Useful 116-rated novice handicap hurdler for powerful owner. Worth a market check on debut over the larger obstacles.

Form: 44214P-

Maeve's Choice¹⁸²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: A E Lynch| T: M J Smith| OR: 110

16/1

One from four over hurdles achieving a rating of 111. Yard one from 36 this term and may need the experience on debut over fences.

Form: 4P16-8F

Poker Party²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: D Robinson⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 114| D

16/1

Decent hurdler who will have disappointed connections on his first couple of drab efforts over the larger obstacles since September. Well below par form looks set to continue.

Form: 1700-56

Qui Bono^p1,t²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: D E Splaine| T: B W Duke| OR: 112

33/1

Nine race maiden who has been well beaten on his first two starts over fences. First time cheekpieces unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

Form: 7-52565

R'evelyn Pleasure¹⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: M A Enright| T: S O O'Brien| OR: 114

12/1

115-rated handicap hurdler who won a Clonmel maiden in March by 21L on heavy ground over 2m2½f. Market likely to be the best guide.

Form: 6514-29

Shar Whats Therush²³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: C J Orr| T: D Hassett| OR: 100| BF

33/1

Modest 100-rated novice handicap hurdler last seen beaten 52L in a Fairyhouse 2m4f contest in April. Watching brief on chasing introduction.

Form: 99/01F8-

Snugsborough Hall^h³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: S A Shortall| T: L P Cusack| OR: 115

12/1

Fifth of six on his second chase start in a Limerick beginners contest over 2m6f beaten 18L. Hard to fancy and plenty to prove.

Form: P203F-5

Castafiore Park¹⁹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: B J Cooper| T: P Nolan| OR: 113| D

4/1

Useful 108-rated handicap hurdler who won two of his last three starts over timber towards the end of last season. Capable of a big run if taking to the larger obstacles.

Form: 23210-1

Definite Income¹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Brian Hayes| T: J E Kiely| OR: 106| C

50/1

Course winner who has won under similar conditions previously. Nothing of note in five chase starts to date and others preferred.

Form: 9/FF7-07

Nellie Pledge³⁶⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr L P Gilligan⁽⁷⁾| T: P J Gilligan| D

18/1

Two from nine over hurdles achieving a rating of 112 for previous trainer. Best watched on seasonal, stable and chasing debut.

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: A W Short⁽³⁾| T: N Meade| OR: 102

16/1

First Reserve: Generally well held in an eight-race hurdling career including earlier this month at Navan over 2m. Could be of interest if making the line-up.

Form: 458-564

Forecasts

Castafiore Park (4/1), Guided By You (5/1), Allardyce (8/1), All's Quiet (8/1), Last Man Standing (10/1), Doldido (10/1), Danse Away (12/1), Snugsborough Hall (12/1), R'evelyn Pleasure (12/1), Crazyheart (12/1), Steer Clear (14/1), Frankiefiveangels (16/1), Maeve's Choice (16/1), Poker Party (16/1), Tyrrell's Succes (16/1), Nellie Pledge (18/1), Cowboy Des Long (22/1), Shar Whats Therush (33/1), Dundeedy Lad (33/1), Qui Bono (33/1), Definite Income (50/1)

The solid and consistent ALL'S QUIET can get off the mark for connections at the fifth time of asking over fences building on a couple of genuine efforts at Fairyhouse and here last month. Potential improvers Allardyce, Guided By You and the possibly exciting Castafiore Park can battle for the minor honours.
