Flindt¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr A Murphy⁽⁷⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 121| CD

3/1

C&D winner. Latest win in hurdle at Fairyhouse in January. 33/1, good second of 22 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft) 15 days ago, pulling hard. Very much one to consider.

Form: 01748-2

Falak^t¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Thomas Reilly⁽⁷⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 119| CD

25/1

C&D winner. 25/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, below form fourteenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20.6f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Down in trip.

Form: 49F31/0

Kilkeaskins First²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: L P Dempsey| T: J P Dempsey| OR: 116| CD

33/1

12/1, bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap chase at this course (19.9f, good) 21 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Others make more appeal.

Form: 488206-

Ghost Serge^t¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-6| J: D F O'Regan| T: R Hackett| OR: 113| D

40/1

Unreliable type. First run since leaving David Pipe when 125/1, unseated rider in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Doesn't make much appeal.

Form: 270RR/U

Getaway Katie³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: B Browne⁽³⁾| T: S K Ryder| OR: 112

28/1

80/1, eleventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Hard to make any sort of case for.

Form: 1/06UP0-

Dollar Value^h¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: T G McCourt| OR: 111

7/1

Unreliable type. Creditable sixth of 22 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good to soft, 66/1) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Should trip fitter for that, so warrants consideration.

Form: 143FR-6

Elusive Rebeldom^h⁴⁵⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Keith Donoghue| T: Mrs D Foster| OR: 111| D

12/1

Off 15 months. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Looked promising when scoring at Puncheston 15 months ago, so definite player if retaining ability.

Ensel Du Perche²²

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: J M Moore| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 106

14/1

Eleventh of 13 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Perth (20.2f, good) 22 days ago. Down in trip. Not one to write off just yet.

Form: 06/3F50-

General Moriviere^h1,t⁵⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-13| J: Simon Torrens⁽³⁾| T: J P Broderick| OR: 92

7/2

Promising sort. 12/1, eighth of 20 in novice hurdle at Down Royal (16.6f, good to soft) 58 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Open to improvement now handicapping, particularly if strong in the betting.

Form: 748-

I Don't Get It¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 9-12| J: S A Mulcahy⁽⁷⁾| T: N McCluskey| OR: 91

6/1

Remains a maiden after 19 NH runs. 200/1, thirteenth of 18 in minor event hurdle at Punchestown (20.6f, good to soft) 16 days ago, doing too much too soon. More chance back in handicap company.

Form: 64620-0

Trixie Mc^t⁵³

Age: 8| Weight: 9-12| J: K J Brouder| T: T Gibney| OR: 91

9/2

8/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Navan (16f, soft) 53 days ago, having benefit of enterprising ride. Might find this too competitive.

Form: 022055-

Union Park^t⁶⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 9-12| J: Sean O'Keeffe| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 91

14/1

ELUSIVE REBELDOM hasn't been seen since landing a maiden at Punchestown 15 months ago but his top yard will likely have him ready for this return and he's open to further improvement. As such he's narrowly preferred to fellow handicap debutant General Moriviere, with Flindt considered on the back of an excellent reappearance.
