New Year's Day Hospitality Packages In The Graun Hill Suite Mares Handicap Hurdle (80-109)

Off time: 14:02 | Winning time: 5m 45.90s

Isabel's Gold^t¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Brian Hayes| T: J Queally| OR: 104| CD

8/1

Another who won over C&D on his sole start over the combination in August in a maiden hurdle. Can't be ruled out looking at the full card.

Form: 591024

Stucker Hill¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: Danny Mullins| T: W J Lanigan| OR: 103

11/2

Winner on his last start in a Punchestown handicap hurdle over 2m 6f on good ground last month off an 11lb lower mark. Tough ask but not discounted.

Form: 092-071

Kilbarry Calling²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: K J Brouder⁽⁷⁾| T: C O'Keeffe| OR: 97

6/1

Three race maiden over hurdles and recently seen in defeat over the larger obstacles. Can go well but may find one or two better suited to the conditions.

Form: 8-77P22

Duke's Girl¹³

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Paul Townend| T: J Nash| OR: 98

11/1

20-race maiden including 10 defeats over hurdles. Not the most consistent of sorts but could be worth a market check with notable jockey booking.

Form: B77F24

Glebe Girl⁵³

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: A McCurtin⁽³⁾| T: J J Walsh| OR: 94

12/1

0-18 but has run some respectable races in defeat. Looks capable of getting involved in the battle for minor honours in this field.

Form: 556-053

Beeper's Ruby^t⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: C D Maxwell| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 93

12/1

Got off the mark at the sixth time of asking over hurdles for connections in a Wexford handicap hurdle over 2m6½f off a 6lb lower mark. Handicapper may have given the Scorpion mare a squeak here.

Form: 0-78591

Cailean's Angel⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Sean Flanagan| T: E F Gallagher| OR: 88

16/1

Without a win in seven hurdle starts and well held on her most recent start when finishing 15th of 18 beaten over 80L at Clonmel earlier this month. Needs to improve.

Form: 724P40

Mlily^p1¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: R Loughran| T: M Hassett| OR: 85

12/1

Beaten 35L in a Punchestown handicap hurdle last month over 2m6f. First time cheekpieces unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

Form: 80256-7

Mollys Boxty^v1¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: C A Landers⁽⁵⁾| T: J G Carr| OR: 85

40/1

Five race maiden who runs in first-time visor here. Likely to find better handicapped sorts lurking here.

Form: 0-74F8F

The Full Office⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-2| J: D F O'Regan| T: G Ahern| OR: 85

14/1

Failed to show much of anything when tried four times over hurdles in the spring and again in October. One to watch for the moment.

Form: PP-775

Georgia Grace^p²⁵⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Phillip Enright| T: Miss H McLoughlin| OR: 83

25/1

Well beaten and no impression in four dismal career efforts to date. Unlikely to be troubling the judge on handicap debut here.

Form: F/P0904-

He Knows My Name^t⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-13| J: A Ring| T: R K Watson| OR: 82

11/4

Appears to be developing in to a better chaser than hurlder, but trainer is happy to persist over timber here following a fourth of 23 beaten 11L earlier this month at Navan. Could be of interest.

Form: 6-23014

Jamies Sister⁹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-11| J: A W Short⁽³⁾| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 80

50/1

Lightly raced six-race maiden who has failed to finish any of her last four starts over hurdles. Has work to do on current form.

Form: 90/FPP-P

Le Hachette¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 9-11| J: M A Enright| T: J P Ryan| OR: 80

14/1

Has yet to hit the frame in nine hurdle starts in her career. Winner of a point-to-point earlier this month but liable to find a couple stronger in this contest.

Form: F00321

Non-Runners

Mysloegin¹⁵

Weight: 11-12| Age: 6

T: J R Finn J: Rachael Blackmore

Forecasts

He Knows My Name (11/4), Stucker Hill (11/2), Kilbarry Calling (6/1), Isabel's Gold (8/1), Mysloegin (8/1), Duke's Girl (11/1), Mlily (12/1), Glebe Girl (12/1), Beeper's Ruby (12/1), Le Hachette (14/1), The Full Office (14/1), Cailean's Angel (16/1), Georgia Grace (25/1), Mollys Boxty (40/1), Jamies Sister (50/1)

Stucker Hill can go well once again following a fine win at Punchestown last month but her 11lb penalty may be enough to let in the Kayf Tara mare HE KNOWS MY NAME whose trainer quickly turns her out once again. C&D winner Isabel's Gold and Glebe Girl can battle for the remaining place.
