Lightly-raced winner under NH rules. Sixth of 7 in novice hurdle (18/1) at Killarney (22.8f, soft) 27 days ago. Down in trip. Makes handicap hurdle debut.
|
Well held only start in bumpers but proved a different proposition fitted with cheekpieces and caused a major surprise when winning 15-runner novice hurdle (150/1) at this course (16.4f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 33 days ago. Seemingly no fluke about that effort and claims now handicapping.
|
Successful in a C&D maiden on hurdles debut in November but recent exploits not so inspiring, ninth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Naas (16.5f, soft) in April. Given a break since but he needs to get back on track here.
|
Flat/hurdles winner who, re-united with this yard bounced back to form when second over hurdles at Galway (16.7f) in August. Not in same form returned to the level when eighth of 9 in handicap at Down Royal (10.7f, good to firm) 12 days ago but he could bounce back.
|
Course winner. 25/1, seventh of 8 in maiden at Down Royal (12.8f, good) on flat debut 88 days ago. Proving largely consistent over hurdles prior to that and no surprise to see a better showing returned to this sphere.
|
1 win from 2 runs this season. 11/2, bit below form fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Cork (17f, good to soft) 44 days ago. Not discounted for all his present mark demands that bit more.
|
Course winner. Career best when winning 15-runner Killarney National (26f, good to soft, 20/1) 129 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Merits consideration from much lower hurdles mark.
|
Course winner. Creditable sixth of 15 in handicap (11/1) at Galway (12f, good) 8 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Creditable on last hurdle outing.
|
Shed maiden tag in good style at Bellewstown in July. 7/1, respectable eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle back at that venue (20.5f, good) 21 days ago.
|
Dual hurdles winner who ran best race for some time over fences when runner-up here (15.5f) last October. Likely in need of first start for 10 months on the Flat at Bellewstown 3 weeks ago and market best guide returned to hurdling.
|
25/1, sixteenth of 17 in handicap at Gowran (9.5f, good) 53 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Rejoined yard after leaving Conor O'Dwyer. Poor on last hurdle outing.
|
Course winner. Blinkered for 1st time, eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle (11/2) at Wexford (16.7f, good to soft) 40 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Has good chance on pick of form.
|
Modest Flat winner. Unreliable sort. 66/1, seventh of 13 in handicap at Clonmel (9.6f, good) 13 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Poor on last hurdle outing. Makes handicap hurdle debut.

Forecasts
Inchiquin Star (9/2), Mary's Pride (9/2), First Dare (6/1), Morepowertoya (6/1), Ta Na La (15/2), Brideswell Lad (17/2), Mountain Port (10/1), Champagne Dawn (11/1), Wajaaha (12/1), Soldante (18/1), Peckham Springs (28/1), Pro Bono (33/1), Esticky End (80/1)
FIRST DARE never figured making her debut on the Flat back in June but she'd previously been holding her form well in this sphere and shades the vote to get back on track. Wajaaha, Brideswell Lad and Mountain Port are others to consider in a wide-open affair.
- First Dare6/1
- Wajaaha12/1
- Brideswell Lad17/2
