11/4

Took a step another forward this season when second of 6 in minor event (11/4) at Listowel (16.4f, good) 15 days ago. Could be ready to go one better back in handicap company.

4/1

C&D winner. However, fit from the Flat he ran one of his lesser races when last of 9 in minor event at Wexford (17f, good to soft, 14/1) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: 63/056-9

33/1

Successful here on Rules debut. First run since leaving Henry De Bromhead when pulled up in handicap chase (80/1) at Leopardstown (21.3f, soft) 170 days ago. Has something to prove back over hurdles.

Age: 7| Weight: 11-1| J: Paddy Hanlon⁽⁴⁾| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 112

13/2

Useful handicapper on Flat. Left previous hurdles form behind sent handicapping when second of 10 at Limerick (19f, soft, 18/1) 17 days ago. Could still have more to offer given his ability on the level.

Form: 705-2

5/2

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, finally off the mark in 14-runner handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good, 3/1) 30 days ago, making most. Respected now that he's up and running.

16/1

Two wins from 5 runs over fences last season, with latest success at Thurles in November. Unseated rider at the first in handicap at the same course (18.4f, soft, 7/2) when last seen. Back hurdling after 6 months off.

10/1

Matched previous form when fourth of 9 in maiden hurdle (16/1) at Wexford (20f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Needs to find more more back down in trip returned to a handicap.

Form: U6408-4

Circus Act^b²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 10-0| J: C G O'Dwyer⁽²⁾| T: J Nash| OR: 97

17/2

Fit from the Flat, run best excused when fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (20f, heavy, 8/1) 29 days ago, badly hampered 5 out. Blinkers reapplied and she's not discounted from her current mark.

Forecasts

Run For Harry (5/2), Media Naranja (11/4), Dollar Value (4/1), Phoenix Cowboy (13/2), Circus Act (17/2), Kinbara Hills (10/1), Name Me Famous (16/1), Only One Plan (25/1), Serenity Grove (33/1)

MEDIA NARANJA has been going the right way in her 3 starts this season, beaten only by an already useful stablemate at Listowel on her latest outing, so she can continue her progress to get back to winning ways. Run For Harry opened his account at Kilbeggan last month and isn't taken lightly, with Phoenix Cowboy also in the mix.
