Thats Mypresenting^p³⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-11| J: Paul Townend| T: J R Barry| OR: 108

7/1

This Tramore specialist has reached the veteran stages of his career. May find one or two too hot here and below form at his favourite venue last time out.

Form: 164/P-24

Carlitos Bay³⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Kevin Sexton| T: Peter Fahey| OR: 107

8/1

Just one win from 30 starts and that came over hurdles. A fair effort when third of nine here last time out and the drop back in trip could suit; not one to put a line through.

Form: 2P2P-83

Tiantu^t²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Mr P Power⁽⁷⁾| T: Paul Power| OR: 107

6/1

Possibly found 2m a bit sharp last time out. Has decent form prior to that. Normally jumps well. Unseated rider on penultimate start after colliding when poised to challenge. Chance.

Form: 527-1U4

Sanibel Island³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: Danny Mullins| T: S J Mahon| OR: 106| C

20/1

No win from nine starts over fences. Has not translated his consistent hurdle form to the larger obstacles.

Form: 6PF0P-6

Little Haarth¹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-8| J: R P Treacy⁽⁵⁾| T: D McDonogh| OR: 105| D

7/1

Two decent runs here over course and distance, finishing third on both occasions. Still a maiden over fences but knocking on the door.

Form: 80-5633

Double Windsor^b³⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Sean Flanagan| T: D M O'Brien| OR: 104| CD

6/1

Winner of this last year, now fourteen pounds higher. A winner over course and distance in April and a head behind Carlitos Bay here last time out. Obvious chance despite rise in ratings.

Form: 4731-34

Runyon Rattler³⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 11-3| J: J P O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 100| C| D

10/1

Maiden over fences, has shown temperament. Refused at the last here in March. Well beaten on both runs here in April and June.

Form: 796R6-8

Theatre Run^t¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: M A Cahill| OR: 95

9/2

Second behind Tiantu at Tramore then sixth over 3m1f here last time out. Others preferred. Jockey booking a positive, though.

Form: 605-266

Attalco¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-5| J: C J Orr⁽⁵⁾| T: I Madden| OR: 88

14/1

Yet to win in Ireland. On a long losing run and very hard to make a case for on all known form.

Form: 4/6P-PP8

Arch Melody⁵²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Sean O'Keeffe⁽⁷⁾| T: J Morrison| OR: 83

6/1

Point winner but little shown over fences in the last few starts. Makes his handicap debut here.

Form: 800F9-9

Swarez^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-10| J: D J Hickey⁽⁷⁾| T: P Stafford| OR: 79

16/1

Didn't show much over hurdles and nothing so far over fences. Handicap debut today.

Form: 0060-F0

Forecasts

Theatre Run (9/2), Arch Melody (6/1), Double Windsor (6/1), Tiantu (6/1), Little Haarth (7/1), Thats Mypresenting (7/1), Carlitos Bay (8/1), Runyon Rattler (10/1), Attalco (14/1), Swarez (16/1), Sanibel Island (20/1)

DOUBLE WINDSOR could well take this race for the second year running. Has taken a hike in the weights since then but is still fancied here. Little Hearth is the next best with encouraging signs over course and distance the last twice. The jockey claims a useful 5lb. Tiantu will be more at home over this trip than the two miles of his last run at Punchestown and is a consistent performer.
