|
33/1, fourteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (20.4f, soft) 22 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Difficult ask.
|
Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Excellent third of 11 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (21f, soft, 11/1) 25 days ago. Down in trip and should have a part to play.
|
Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Respectable third of 11 in novice hurdle at Wexford (16.4f, heavy, 11/4) 47 days ago. Open to improvement now handicapping.
|
25/1, below form tenth of 19 in maiden at the Curragh (12f, good to soft) 41 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Respectable on last hurdle outing. Has good chance on form.
|
Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at this course (16f, good, 18/1) 39 days ago. Others look stronger.
|
Promising type. Fair winner at 15f on the Flat. 22/1, creditable second of 18 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (16.2f, good) 16 days ago, no match for winner. Can make presence felt.
|
11/1, improved to win 11-runner handicap at Leopardstown (12f, heavy) 55 days ago, driven out. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Creditable on last hurdle outing. One to consider.
|
Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at this course (16f, good) 68 days ago. Booking of Harvey a plus and while she needs to raise her game, there is room for improvement.
|
Career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16.4f, soft, 28/1) on debut for new yard 11 days ago, proving 2½ lengths too strong for the re-opposing Mayos Vendangeur, kept up to work.
|
Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, fourteenth of 20 in handicap (33/1) at Navan (14f, good to soft) 52 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Capable of going well off this mark.
|
Good 2½ lengths second of 15 to Kp's Ladyofknock in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Clonmel (16.4f, soft) 11 days ago. Solid each-way claims.

Forecasts
Oakley (3/1), Ragmans Corner (11/2), Kp's Ladyofknock (13/2), Arch Enemy (15/2), Mayos Vendangeur (8/1), Boston Rajj (8/1), Moylussa (17/2), Albatala (12/1), Stoneyford Lady (14/1), Wendell's Lass (18/1), Another Glendaars (33/1), Jokers 'N' Clowns (80/1)
The vote goes to OAKLEY, who resumed with a good second in a big-field Thurles handicap recently and he should have more to offer in this sphere. Arch Enemy has been in fine form on the Flat of late and he will be a big threat if able to continue the good work back over hurdles. Ragmans Corner is also strongly considered, while handicap debutantes Stoneyford Lady and Albatala both need a second look.
