Noble Talent¹²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr F Maguire| T: T J Nagle-Jr

17/2

Fair form in a couple of maiden hurdles in the spring and that suggests he should be up to making an impact now switching to a bumper.

125/1

Sheheree

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P Hanlon⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon

66/1

Red Jazz gelding. Half-brother to 5f winner Teresar. Dam, ran twice over hurdles, 5f-1m winner on Flat. Not an obvious one on paper but worth a precautionary betting check.

Toor Khov¹⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: Ms M Flynn

33/1

Sholokhov gelding. Dam little show over hurdles. Pulled up sole start in points (Apr 23).

Form: 8357-

Traditude Tara⁴⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

8/11

Form: 2

Forecasts

Traditude Tara (8/11), Jet Setting Jim (7/2), Noble Talent (17/2), Lummi Island (9/1), Mag Dillane (12/1), Chosen Templar (20/1), Toor Khov (33/1), Isolde's Voice (33/1), Making My Way Back (50/1), Sheheree (66/1), Rising Dust (125/1)

It's very hard to see past TRADITUDE TARA who showed plenty of promise when second on her debut last month and can go one better now. The likes of Noble Talent, who showed a fair level of ability over hurdles in the spring, Jet Setting Jim and Chosen Templar can battle it out for minor honours.
