Cashel Maiden Hurdle

Off time: 13:30 | Winning time: 4m 15.70s

Accidental Rebel¹⁸⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: H De Bromhead

9/1

Didn't show a great deal in novice hurdle and a similar story in two subsequent bumpers. More needed on return to obstacles for top yard.

Form: 963-

Automatic¹¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Darragh O'Keeffe⁽³⁾| T: W J Burke| OR: 104

2/1

Showed some ability in maiden hurdles in the spring but stepped up on that when chasing home a rapidly improving type in a handicap last week. Down 3f today but return to maiden company in his favour and sets the standard.

Form: 6055-2

Bartleys Boy²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: A McCurtin⁽⁵⁾| T: T Doyle

100/1

Poor form in bumpers and tailed off when 100/1 on hurdles debut so not hard to pass over here.

Form: 0-5670

Beating The Odds¹⁸⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: T Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: W J Austin

100/1

Moderate form in four Point-to-points (pulled up twice) and needs to leave that form well behind on rules debut today.

Form: PP2-5

Crutches Lad^p²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Simon Torrens⁽⁷⁾| T: William P Murphy

66/1

Pair of wins in Point-to-point field but Hunter chase form ordinary and hard to fancy on hurdles debut now.

Form: 1P1-33P

Ennemi Public¹⁸⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G Elliott

20/1

Shaped well on Bumper debut at Cork in January but failed to build on that in two subsequent runs and now switches to hurdles with bit to prove.

Form: 476-

Goodbye Someday²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: D N Russell| T: J E Kiely

5/1

Never dangerous 30L third behind a hotpot on hurdles debut at Tipperary recently. Promise in bumpers prior to that and should do better in time.

Form: 646-3

Hesamanofhisword²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: N P Madden| T: D E Fitzgerald

6/1

Small steps forward in four runs over hurdles culminating with a 12L second here earlier in the month. May have more to come and one for the short list.

Form: F8-3462

Iridescent²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: M P Fogarty| T: J Fogarty

100/1

100/1 when pulled up on debut at Galway earlier in the month and not hard to look elsewhere on that evidence.

Form: P

Minella United¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: M Hamill⁽³⁾| T: H De Bromhead

9/1

Point-to-point second in May last year was a fair effort but two tries over hurdles have revealed little and looks stable second string on jockey bookings.

Form: 27-6

Mister Mogul²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: M P Burke⁽⁷⁾| T: T Doyle

33/1

33/1 on both runs in bumpers and mid division both occasions. Now goes hurdling and needs to improve to play a part.

Form: 76

Moscowsowhat⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Phillip Enright| T: J Dullea

50/1

Runner up in Point-to-point on debut but poor form in two runs over hurdles and plenty to prove at present.

Form: 25-09

Notice To Close⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Brian Hayes| T: S Neville

5/1

Completed a hat-trick in Point-to-points in the spring and although no match for a 140 rated rival on hurdles debut last weekend when beaten 28L, meets nothing of that calibre today and a repeat would put him in the mix.

Form: 0/FP15-2

Otzi⁴¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: L P Dempsey| T: A J McNamara

100/1

Beaten 19L when midfield in soft ground Bumper debut at Listowel last month and more needed now switching to hurdles.

Form: 9-

Ruler Of Dubai¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: R P Treacy⁽⁵⁾| T: L Young

100/1

100/1 when no show on debut recently and will need to brush up on his jumping to play a part today.

Form: 0

Steel Tornado⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: P Merrigan| T: J R Barry

100/1

Finished 53L behind Notice To Close last Sunday at Wexford and impossible to make a case for on that evidence.

Form: 875-07

Whatchamacallit^t1³³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Mark Walsh| T: J P O'Brien

12/1

Good second on debut 18 months ago but may have been amiss when pulled up only start since and that was nearly a year ago so hard to know what to expect now.

Form: 2/P-

Dreams Of Winter²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Sean Flanagan| T: C W J Farrell

100/1

10 race 38 rated maiden on the Flat and needs this different discipline to bring about a huge turn around in form.

Forecasts

Automatic (2/1), Notice To Close (5/1), Goodbye Someday (5/1), Hesamanofhisword (6/1), Accidental Rebel (9/1), Minella United (9/1), No Admission (10/1), Whatchamacallit (12/1), Ennemi Public (20/1), Mister Mogul (33/1), Moscowsowhat (50/1), Fair Ella (50/1), Knockraha Boss (50/1), Crutches Lad (66/1), Ruler Of Dubai (100/1), Beating The Odds (100/1), Bartleys Boy (100/1), Iridescent (100/1), Otzi (100/1), Dreams Of Winter (100/1), Steel Tornado (100/1)

Few come here in much form in a moderate looking contest and AUTOMATIC bumped into a highly progressive sort in a handicap last time and can make the most of this drop back to maiden company. If this doesn't come too soon after his run on Sunday Notice To Close s entitled to play a part and Hesamanofhisword completes the short list.
