Make Good^p,t⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Simon Torrens⁽⁵⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 116

2/1

Fair Flat winner. Thrice-raced maiden over hurdles. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, won 11-runner handicap at Navan (14f, soft, 9/2) 4 days ago. Merits serious consideration back in this sphere.

Age: 5| Weight: 11-10| J: Mike O'Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 114

18/1

Fair hurdler, successful at Killarney in August. Last of 12 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Navan (16f, good) 37 days ago. Yard saddles a stronger candidate in Kapard.

Form: 2F-F510

Fortune Street^p1,t1³¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-10| J: Sean O'Keeffe⁽³⁾| T: P Nolan| OR: 114| CD

7/2

Fair hurdler. Respectable sixth of 16 in novice hurdle (4/1) at Listowel (20f, soft) 31 days ago. Tongue strap and cheekpieces on 1st time. Not without each-way hope.

Form: 1340-26

Behind The Curtain¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: J P O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 113| D

15/2

Fair hurdler. Good second of 6 in novice hurdle at Galway (19.1f, soft, 28/1) 19 days ago. More needed.

Form: 24748-2

O Connell Street^t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G Elliott

18/1

12 lengths sixth of 16 in a Limerick maiden hurdle (2m, heavy, 100/30) on debut for new yard 15 days ago, unsuited by the drop in trip. Open to improvement but a stiffer test would be ideal.

Form: 24/2-6

Scalor^t²⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Sean Flanagan| T: Miss E Doyle| OR: 111| D

13/2

Fair hurdler, successful at Kilbeggan in July. 18/1, creditable sixth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.6f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Still, likely to find one or two too good.

Form: 0-17396

Kapard²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: H De Bromhead| D

3/1

Promising sort. Won 14-runner novice hurdle at Roscommon (16f, good, 11/10) on debut 28 days ago. Trainer going well and this filly remains open to improvement.

Forecasts

Make Good (2/1), Kapard (3/1), Fortune Street (7/2), Scalor (13/2), Behind The Curtain (15/2), Capilano Bridge (12/1), Arthur Fonzarelli (18/1), O Connell Street (18/1)

It wasn't a particularly strong maiden hurdle in which KAPARD made a winning debut at Roscommon last month, but she did the job well and improvement may well be forthcoming. Make Good bolted up on the Flat at Navan last week and he is a much-respected main danger, while Fortune Street should also have a part to play if responding well to the new headgear.
