Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Beginners Chase

Off time: 12:45 | Winning time: 5m 40.08s

Emily Roebling¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-7| J: J J Slevin| T: G Kelleher

4/1

Fair maiden hurdler who has been placed numerous times, including at this course 2 weeks ago. Should prove just as good over fences being a winning pointer earlier in her career.

Form: 42-2032

Pont Aval³¹

Age: 10| Weight: 11-7| J: D E Mullins| T: W P Mullins

10/1

Fairly useful hurdler but made a discouraging start over fences after nearly 2 years off when pulled up in maiden at Naas (20f, soft, 20/1) 31 days ago.

Form: 10P10/P

Rock On Cassie¹⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Sam Ewing| T: G Elliott

18/1

Winning hurdler but offered little after 10 months off at Thurles (15.5f, soft) 17 days ago. Needs to get back on track now chasing.

Form: 161FP-6

Always Giving¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: R Deegan| T: J T R Dreaper

150/1

Has yet to show any ability. Significantly up in trip.

Form: 05-0000

Instit³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-3| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| BF

2/7

Useful hurdler who looked like justifying support until a chance-ending mistake at the last in 4-runner maiden chase at Naas (20f) 31 days ago. Can make amends here.

Form: 122-442

Forecasts

Instit (2/7), Emily Roebling (4/1), Pont Aval (10/1), Rock On Cassie (18/1), Always Giving (150/1)

An excellent opportunity for INSTIT to make amends for a late blunder at Naas last month, which cost her the win. Emily Roebling is fancied to follow her home.
