Big Debates¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Phillip Enright| T: R Tyner

15/2

Runner-up in two maiden point-to-points. While well beaten over 2m in his three maiden hurdles, there has been a little improvement in his form. More is needed. Bred more for this longer trip.

Form: 22/695

Daring Disciple^t¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Simon Torrens⁽⁷⁾| T: N Lee| OR: 97

15/2

66-1 or 50-1 in his three maiden hurdles, all over 2m in the mud under Simon Torrens and best when 27L fourth of 13 at Gowran Park on second outing. On that result he is one of many to consider and there's probably enough stamina in the family.

Form: 840

Don Magnifica⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Danny Mullins| T: P A Fahy

7/1

Showed significant ability in bumpers, including when fourth of nine at Wexford last week. Therefore cannot be totally ruled out even though he performed less well in a maiden hurdle on penultimate outing.

Form: 86-04

Elusive Star¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: R M Power| T: M Hourigan

7/2

Won a maiden point last October and runner-up in two other points this year. Fourth of 18 at Punchestown in February 2019 on sole outing over hurdles gives him a chance and he wasn't disgraced in a bumper at Gowran Park on latest outing.

Form: 64-1224

Golden Birch^b,t¹⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Ian Power| T: P Breen| OR: 84

150/1

Has accomplished little in a point-to-point, four maiden hurdles and one chase. Blinkered on latest start and others preferred.

Form: 0P-7000

Hardcore^b1⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: P E Corbett| T: S Nolan

150/1

Not great in maiden points and he's met with very heavy defeats on all three starts over hurdles. Blinkered first time.

Form: 55P-907

Iridescent¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: M P Fogarty| T: J Fogarty

25/1

Has contested three maiden hurdles, showing his first significant promise at Gowran on latest outing although even then he was beaten 43L. Needs better but he may have more to offer.

Form: P07

Michael's Pick^t²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr T J Love⁽⁷⁾| T: Mrs D A Love

33/1

Tongue tied on last two outings, best show when fourth of 17 in maiden at Thurles (2m5f, soft) on first occasion. Still needs better and he was very remote over 2m6f last time but it's possible that those last two trips have stretched him.

Form: 507P49

Oneknightmoreihope⁵⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Kevin Sexton| T: N F Glynn

33/1

Made the running on two of last three starts, with probably his best form on latest but that 44L fifth of 13 at Limerick (2m, heavy) is nevertheless way behind what is needed to win this.

Form: 3P-P965

Quarry Rebel^p1²⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Gary Noonan⁽⁷⁾| T: P O'Flynn| OR: 93

16/1

100-1 when 17L fifth of ten in maiden at Thurles (2m, yielding) in January but his other three starts in maiden hurdles were nowhere near that standard; wears cheekpieces first time.

Form: F2/9566

Royal Recital³⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr E P O'Brien⁽⁷⁾| T: A Slattery| OR: 96

10/1

Soundly beaten at big odds in maidens at Naas, Fairyhouse and Navan. There was a whiff of ability on second start though, and this race is a step down in class.

Form: 000

Cosa Ban^h¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: L P Dempsey| T: J P Dempsey

7/1

Showed some ability in a hood on first two starts under rules. Also did so without one on latest outing when making most until she fell in the lead at Gowran Park (2m, soft-heavy) 17 days ago. If none the worse for that she's got a shout here.

Form: P07F

Immortality²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: K Brogan⁽⁷⁾| T: G Elliott

14/1

Won a maiden point at the second attempt. A bumper and two maiden hurdles have not revealed enough to suggest a prominent finish today.

Form: P-17P6

Piece A Cake⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: A J Flaherty⁽⁷⁾| T: K A Heffernan

150/1

2-7 in point-to-points but, after a year off, this season's two runs over hurdles and one over fences have yielded very little.

Form: 2P/1-P08

She's All Vintage²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: E Walsh⁽⁷⁾| T: P Magee

10/3

Runner-up in a maiden point in January 2018. Not seen again until early this year but her 24L fifth of 22 in a mares maiden hurdle at Navan (2m, heavy) three weeks ago was eyecatching form in this context and she showed promise from off the pace.

Form: F2/985

Our Marvmichael⁴⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: H Morgan⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead

40/1

No striking signs of ability in her three bumpers for Charles Byrnes or three maiden hurdles (2m, 2m3f and 2m6f) for Henry De Bromhead (Reserve).

Forecasts

She's All Vintage (10/3), Elusive Star (7/2), Cosa Ban (7/1), Don Magnifica (7/1), Daring Disciple (15/2), Big Debates (15/2), Royal Recital (10/1), Immortality (14/1), Quarry Rebel (16/1), Iridescent (25/1), Ekanse (25/1), Michael's Pick (33/1), Oneknightmoreihope (33/1), Our Marvmichael (40/1), Golden Birch (150/1), Hardcore (150/1), Piece A Cake (150/1)

Finding solid claims in this line-up is not easy but SHE’S ALL VINTAGE is a clear exception following her latest run, in which she made up a lot of ground at Navan to give herself a place chance at the final flight. Elusive Star has hinted that he could be a player. Cosa Ban produced a bold show last time until her fall two out, so she is third on the list.
