13/2

C&D winner. 33/1, thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (19.4f, heavy) 15 days ago. Fair on the all weather, poor on last Flat run. Something to prove.

Building Bridges⁷⁸

16/1

Eleven runs since last win in 2019. Ninth of 13 in handicap at Navan (14f, good, 12/1) 78 days ago, going off too hard. Others make more appeal.

12/1

16/1, bit below form fifth of 13 in handicap at Down Royal (10.3f, good to soft) 46 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

17/2

Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16f, good, 8/1) 30 days ago, pushed out. Makes polytrack debut. Tongue strap back on. Worthy of interest back on the Flat.

Form: 3-97670

16/5

66/1

40/1, last of 18 in handicap at Galway (11.8f, heavy) 11 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Hard to fancy.

11/1

25/1, third of 16 in handicap hurdle at Cork (19f, heavy) 26 days ago. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Not discounted from a potentially fair mark back in this sphere.

Form: 3479-30

Forecasts

Chutzpal (11/4), Dr Patrick (16/5), Qaabil (7/2), Pro Bono (6/1), Make The Switch (13/2), Muntahez (8/1), Well Funded (17/2), Eastern Tornado (11/1), Red Ball Of Fire (12/1), Building Bridges (16/1), Folly Beach (16/1), Coushty (20/1), Getaway Queen (22/1), A Few Bob Short (66/1), Hinemoa (100/1)

WELL FUNDED is well treated on old form and arrives on the back of a comfortable success over hurdles at Punchestown a month ago, so he's worth a chance to follow up with a 10-lb claimer on board. In-form pair Chutzpal and Qaabil are both likely to be on the premises.
