4/1

Fair hurdler. Winner in hurdle here in April. Fair winner at 19f over hurdles. Fourth of 6 in novice chase (40/1) at Listowel (22f, soft) on debut over fences 24 days ago. Looks up against it.

Form: 971P-44

Little Mixup¹²

4/6

Promising sort. 20/1, unseated rider in novice chase at Galway (18.2f, good to soft) on debut over fences 12 days ago. Jumped well prior to that mistake and he's open to improvement in this sphere.

Form: 10P-60U

Well Del²⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Donagh Meyler| T: Liam G O'brien

9/4

Once-raced maiden. Fourth of 18 in novice hurdle (66/1) at Listowel (22f, good) on NH debut 28 days ago, running on. Big step forward needed on this chase debut.

Forecasts

Farren Glory (4/9), Little Mixup (4/6), Well Del (9/4), Mint Boy (5/2), King Of Cong (4/1)

Save for his latest effort at Leopardstown in February when clearly far from 100%, FARREN GLORY was a very promising novice hurdler last season and he will surely prove much too good for these rivals, provided his jumping passes the test on this chase debut. Mint Boy and Little Mixup can fill the places.
