Fair winner at 10f on Flat. 16/1, below form when ninth of 18 in handicap at Galway (8.6f, soft) just under 9 weeks ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles.
|
28/1, back to similar level as when winning on debut when 11¼ lengths third of 8 to A Dream To Share in Champion INH Flat Race at Punchestown (16.3f, good to soft) 5 months ago. Has the physical scope to do well over jumps so looks a major player for his top yard.
|
Fairly useful Flat winner. Promising type. Ran to a similar level as on hurdling bow when fourth of 15 in maiden hurdle (9/4) at Galway (16.6f, soft) 3 weeks ago. Should progress.
|
Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 5/1, )took a step forward from hurdling debut when fourth of 16 in maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft) 5 months ago. Looks the one to beat.
|
Down the field in bumpers and went with no encouragement sent hurdling at Fairyhouse (16.5f, good to soft) 7 months ago.
|
Made more impact than previously after 10 weeks off when fifth of 14 in bumper (50/1) at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good to soft) 5 months ago. Makes hurdles debut.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, again looked less than straightforward when seventh of 13 in bumper at Downpatrick (17.3f, good to soft) back in May. Makes hurdles debut.
|
150/1, tenth of 16 in bumper at Punchestown (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 5 months ago, leading until before straight. Makes hurdles debut.
|
€62,000 3-y-o, closely related to fairly useful 2m/2¾m hurdle winner Kilbarry Chloe and fair chaser Kilbarry Calling, and half-brother to fair 2m hurdle winner Kilbarry Cushty, from family of Racing Demon. Every chance when fell last sole start in points (Feb 18).
|
€25,000 3-y-o, Vendangeur gelding. Half-brother to 5 winners, including smart hurdler Mighty Tom, stays 19f, and fair hurdler Lucky Phil, stays 2½m. Dam (h105) 2m hurdle winner, also 1½m winner on Flat. Maiden pointer, runner-up last time (May 8).
|
Well held in bumpers/maiden hurdle.
|
Fair maiden on the Flat though tailed off on both starts over hurdles. Tongue strap back on/cheekpieces on for 1st time, but very hard to fancy.

Forecasts
King Of Kingsfield (2/5), Redstone (4/1), Lazer Wolf (15/2), Harley Street (17/2), One And Only (20/1), Solly Attwell (28/1), Blackcastle Storm (80/1), Makaela's Choice (100/1), Our Uncle Jack (125/1), Perfect Pupil (150/1), Liquid Metric (200/1), What's Lariat Now (200/1)
KING OF KINGSFIELD is likely to be a warm order having finished third in the Grade 1 bumper at Punchestown on his final start last season, so Gordon Elliott's ex-pointer is taken to make a winning start in this sphere at the expense of Lazer Wolf, who sets the standard on his fourth at Kilbeggan when last seen in May. Harley Street and Redstone can also feature.
- Lazer Wolf15/2
- Harley Street17/2
