Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: John Shinnick⁽⁵⁾| T: T O'Brien| OR: 130| C

6/1

Useful winner at 20f over hurdles. Below form third of 6 in novice chase (12/1) at Killarney (23.4f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Has to be taken seriously on handicap debut in this sphere.

14/1

Latest win in chase at Kilbeggan in June. Good second of 9 in novice chase at Galway (18.2f, good to soft, 18/1) 160 days ago. Solid each-way chance.

14/1

Latest win in chase at Killarney in August. 22/1, below form fifth of 11 in handicap chase at Gowran (16f, heavy) 27 days ago. Back up in trip and looks a risky proposition at present.

Form: 17PU75

Lightkeeper^b,t¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Jordan Gainford| T: G Elliott| OR: 123

9/1

Career best when winning 6-runner novice chase at Down Royal (19.6f, good, 3/1) 18 days ago, easily. Makes handicap chase debut. Enters calculations.

4/1

55/1, second of 13 in handicap chase at Auteuil (21.9f, soft) 162 days ago. First run for yard after leaving D. Windrif. Interesting to see what the market has to say.

Form: 653-372

Nas Na Riogh³³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Mike O'Connor| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 122

18/1

Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. Tenth of 13 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (21.5f, good to soft, 8/1) 33 days ago. Needs to get back on track.

Form: 1-15870

Splashing Out^p⁶⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Simon Torrens| T: E Griffin| OR: 113

10/1

15½ lengths fifth of 8 to Theonewedreamof in handicap chase (5/1) at Punchestown (22f, soft) 60 days ago. More needed.

Theonewedreamof³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Kevin Sexton| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 112| D

8/1

2 wins from 6 runs this season. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap chase (11/2) at Navan (20.4f, heavy) 34 days ago. One to consider.

Form: 315514

Well Del¹⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Shane O'Callaghan⁽⁵⁾| T: E Doyle| OR: 112| D

22/1

Winner in chase at Limerick in October. Switches from hurdles to chase and others make more appeal on this occasion.

Form: 15679U

Kiltealy Park⁶⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-7| J: Sean Flanagan| T: P Nolan| OR: 111| C

2/1

Fairly useful winner at 21f over hurdles. 8/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Naas (20.1f, heavy) 68 days ago, soon beaten. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 1-1615P

Forecasts

Kiltealy Park (2/1), Letos (4/1), Magnor Glory (6/1), Theonewedreamof (8/1), Lightkeeper (9/1), Splashing Out (10/1), Clifftop (10/1), Dutch Schultz (14/1), Sea Music (14/1), Nas Na Riogh (18/1), Well Del (22/1)

The vote goes to MAGNOR GLORY, who didn't appear to see out the 23.4f trip at Killarney when last seen in August and he is of strong interest back over a more suitable distance and off an attractive mark for his handicap debut in this sphere. Lightkeeper took a step forward when winning well at Down Royal recently and he is an obvious threat, while Sea Music and Theonewedreamof are others to consider.
