Downtown Queen^t³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: C P McNamara| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 108

5/1

Returned to something like her hurdling debut form to get off the mark in 9-runner maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good to soft) 39 days ago, driven out. That performance is backed up by the clock, so she's respected in her follow-up bid.

Form: 8260-1

Lady Iseult¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: P J O'Hanlon⁽⁵⁾| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 104

5/1

Fair hurdler. Winner at Roscommon in June and shaped as if still in good form when sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, good to soft) 13 days ago.

Form: 88-8U16

Jakes Dream^p1²¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Richard Condon⁽⁷⁾| T: M Winters| OR: 102

8/1

Winner at Wexford in June. Not seen to best effect when seventh of 17 in 2m handicap at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) 3 weeks ago and is worth another chance back up in trip in first-time cheekpieces.

Form: 64-9137

Kilbarry Chianti¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: C G O'Dwyer⁽⁷⁾| T: C O'Keeffe| OR: 102

15/8

Made the most of a good opportunity back down in trip in 16-runner maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft) 13 days ago, produced to lead between last 2 and driven out. Should be in the thick of the action.

Form: 6494P-1

Daisy Dufresne¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Jordan Gainford| T: G Elliott| OR: 100

8/1

Matched the pick of her form to get off the mark in 12-runner maiden hurdle at Sligo (16.9f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Step back up in trip will suit and she's a player.

Form: 0/57-941

Good Bye Milan¹³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Gavin Brouder⁽⁵⁾| T: S Braddish| OR: 91

7/1

Winner at Wexford in May and wasted no time getting back to form when fourth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.9f, good to soft, 14/1) 13 days ago.

Form: P0-12P4

Failed to improve when sixth of 17 on handicap debut at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Back up in trip.

Forecasts

Kilbarry Chianti (15/8), Downtown Queen (5/1), Lady Iseult (5/1), Good Bye Milan (7/1), Via Rosa (7/1), Lizlucky (15/2), Daisy Dufresne (8/1), Jakes Dream (8/1), Brog Ban Espana (20/1)

An open-looking contest. DAISY DUFRESNE got off the mark in a weak race at Sligo 11 days ago, but is sure to be suited by this return to further having needed every yard of that extended 2m, so gets the nod to follow up. Downtown Queen's Downpatrick win is backed up by the clock, so she's respected in her follow-up bid, while Kilbarry Chianti and Jakes Dream are others to consider.
