Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: B J Cooper| T: T J Nagle-Jr| OR: 100| D

4/1

Unreliable type. One win from 25 NH runs. Creditable fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Cork (24.2f, good to soft, 14/1) 7 days ago. Needs to back that up now.

Form: 4-74884

Dympnas Well^t³⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-13| J: Jordan Gainford⁽⁵⁾| T: P Nolan| OR: 99

10/3

2 wins from 4 runs this season. Creditable eighth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (20f, good to soft, 13/2) 35 days ago, no extra aprroaching the last. Can go well again.

Form: 00-1618

Ever So Cool^h¹²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 99| BF

11/1

Knuckled down well to open her account at Uttoxeter (15.7f) in May. Seemingly not 100% when eased off at Southwell in June and no surprise to see her get back on the up for new yard now.

Form: 424P-15

Birdie Blitz¹⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Simon Torrens| T: A A Howard| OR: 98| D

7/2

18/1, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Galway (19.1f, heavy) 19 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. That was her first start for 13 months and she may well be sharper here.

Form: 31/4F8-4

Get Crackin³³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: C D Timmons⁽³⁾| T: E Cawley| OR: 98

18/1

Good sixth of 17 in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Navan (16f, heavy) in November, fading after 3 out. Back from a break now and only market support would make him of interest.

Form: 000/306-

Kilgorey^p,t³⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: J J Slevin| T: Mrs Y Dunleavy| OR: 98

9/1

Maiden. 15/2, below form eleventh of 18 in handicap hurdle at Navan (21.8f, good) 36 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Form: 978440

Thedancingfarrier¹⁵³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Ian Power| T: P Kiely| OR: 98

14/1

Ran best race to date when fourth of 13 on handicap debut at Clonmel (19.8f) in May. Not in same form at Ballinrobe later that month but a break may have perked him up.

Form: 4763-46

Better Than Heaven¹³⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: H Morgan⁽³⁾| T: J P Flavin| OR: 96| D

9/1

Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. 33/1, career best when making winning handicap hurdles debut at Navan (20f) in June. Further progress certainly not ruled out.

Form: UP0-001

Cornakill Rose²¹

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: P J O'Hanlon⁽⁷⁾| T: P Magee| OR: 95| D

16/1

One win from 24 NH runs. 8/1, fell in novice chase at Killarney (23f, soft) 21 days ago, weakening when falling 2 out. Switches from chase to hurdles. Not taken lightly.

Form: 27484F

Kasakh Noir²³

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: Donagh Meyler| T: N C Kelly| OR: 95

50/1

Twenty one runs since last win in 2016. Sixteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20f, good, 28/1) 23 days ago. Must improve.

Form: 5-P8580

Tyrrell's Succes⁵⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: Shane Fitzgerald⁽⁵⁾| T: N C Kelly| OR: 95

40/1

Twenty four runs since last win in 2017. Sixth of 7 in handicap chase (22/1) at Cartmel (25.5f, good) 57 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Tough to assess at present.

Form: 98F-P56

Sefton Warrior^p²³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-8| J: J S McGarvey| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 96

28/1

18/1, shaped better than distance beaten suggests when fourteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20f, good) 23 days ago, not persevered with once held. Worth noting if market speaks in his favour

Form: P-0U650

Spancil Hill¹⁴⁷

Age: 11| Weight: 11-8| J: Mark McDonagh⁽⁷⁾| T: M J McDonagh| OR: 94| C| D

16/1

Twelfth of 16 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Punchestown (26f, good to soft) 147 days ago. Back down in trip.

Form: FP61-30

I Can't Remember^p²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-7| J: C D Maxwell| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 95

40/1

33/1, twelfth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (20f, good) 29 days ago, struggling when not fluent 3 and 2 out. Mark has eased a little more but hard to warm to on balance.

This looks wide open and it may pay to side with BIRDIE BLITZ. She ran well when fourth on return from 13 months off at Galway 3 weeks ago, arguably making her effort earlier than ideal and no extra final 100 yds. She gets the nod to build on that, with in-form Dympnas Well, Ever So Cool and Better Than Heaven heading up the dangers.
