16/1
Failed to finish in a couple of points and hasn't fared much better so far over hurdles. Step up in trip showed no sign of improvement last time and beaten a long way. Good chance that handicaps will suit better on the back of this.

9/4
Has shown plenty of promise over hurdles mixed in with some lesser efforts. Went very close on latest start at Sligo and a repeat of that effort will see him go very close. Cheekpieces on first time.

100/1
Has looked fairly moderate in points and over hurdles so far. Pulled up at Fairyhouse last time when well adrift. Hard to fancy on that evidence and others have stronger claims.

7/2
Has plenty of experience but has struggled to get his head in front. Led for a long way over 3m at Cork last time and this slight drop back in trip may help. Capable but vulnerable to anything with ability.

Age: 6|  Weight: 11-12| J: S A Shortall| T: J P O'Brien
2/1
Has shown some ability so far and this step up in trip looks a good move having stayed on the last twice over 2m. Lightly raced and could be a big player here with this trip likely to bring about some improvement.

Wide-margin defeats in a trio of maiden hurdles from 2m2½f-2m4f so far, upped in trip here and needs that to spark a bit of improvement for win purposes.

50/1
Oscar gelding who cut out a lot of the running on bumper debut when eventually beaten 36L. Will need to improve greatly on that here on first go over timber. Tongue-tie goes on first time.

100/1
Cost €1,400 as a three-year-old and is a half-sister to a number winners over 3m plus. 50/1 and beaten a long way on sole bumper run over Christmas. Needs plenty of improvement on hurdles debut.

14/1
Point-to-point winner who has shown ability on both starts over hurdles so far. Sent off favourite when fading into 5th at Wexford two weeks ago. Goes up in trip today and interesting to see if the market support comes again.

Forecasts

On Call (2/1), Castlebellingham (9/4), Monition (7/2), Seeyouinvinnys (15/2), Trickey Trix (14/1), Black Market (16/1), Time For An Oscar (50/1), Orena Bay (100/1), Electricitywork (100/1)

Verdict

Castlebellingham just about sets the standard on what has been achieved so far but will be vulnerable to any improvers. The money came for Trickey Trix at Wexford last time and she could play a part over this longer trip. ON CALL has shaped like this trip will really suit in recent efforts and can get off the mark today.
