Presenting Lad^t⁹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Phillip Enright| T: M M McNiff| OR: 114| D

9/2

Fair hurdler. 7/1, matched pick of his form in that sphere when winning 11-runner novice chase at Roscommon (16.5f, soft) 9 days ago, leading soon after 2 out and keeping on. Should give another good account but little more needed conceding weight all round.

Form: 8-U6331

Bukhill^p1²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Danny Mullins| T: Peter Fahey

Form: 176108-

Faux Fur¹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| C

9/4

Fair hurdler who resumed progress when runner-up on chase debut at Clonmel (16.4f) in June. Unseated at the first on her most recent start at Galway (22.5f) but she remains the type to do better in this sphere, particularly if her jumping sharpens up.

Form: P10-72U

Miss Oreo^p,h¹⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Jordan Gainford| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 104

14/1

Fair chaser. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 7 in novice chase (22/1) at Galway (18.2f, good) 16 days ago. Little more needed if she's to land this.

Form: 05-5236

Still Ciel^t²²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: H De Bromhead| D

13/8

Fairly useful winner at 2m over hurdles. 11/4, creditable fourth of 8 in novice chase at Wexford (16f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Stable in good form. Should go well again.

Form: 504/0-24

Varna Gold^t1⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Keith Donoghue| T: P J Gilligan| OR: 116

16/1

Form: P/43-F5U

Forecasts

Still Ciel (13/8), Faux Fur (9/4), Presenting Lad (9/2), Bukhill (15/2), Miss Oreo (14/1), Varna Gold (16/1)

STILL CIEL ran to a similar level as on chase debut when fourth in a mares' event at Wexford 22 days ago and looks to hold sound claims of coming out on top with her stable in good form. Faux Fur and Roscommon scorer Presenting Lad head the dangers.
