11/2

18/1, good fifth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (16f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Shannon Bank²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 96

15/2

Good fifth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Galway (22.4f, soft, 8/1) 27 days ago. Back down in trip and she should have a part to play.

Form: 9-44945

Jessie's Dreamgirl^h⁹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: N C Kelly| OR: 95

80/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, twelfth of 15 in novice hurdle at Bellewstown (17.2f, good) 92 days ago. First run for yard after leaving John McConnell and hood back on. Improvement needed now handicapping.

Form: 4-P0

Kingdom Calling^h,t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-8| J: Gary Noonan⁽³⁾| T: E McCarthy| OR: 94

11/1

Fell in handicap hurdle at Listowel (16f, good to soft, 9/1) 9 days ago, in third place when falling 2 out and almost certainly would've finished in the frame. Not taken lightly.

Form: 0093-0F

Carla's Pet¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Thomas O'Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: E McCarthy| OR: 93

7/1

Lightly-raced winner over hurdles. First run since leaving Darren Collins when 18/1, career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Listowel (18f, good to soft) 11 days ago, readily. More needed up 8 lb, but she needs considering all the same.

Form: 95-0P1

Rock Ya Boy Ya²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Alix Balfe⁽⁷⁾| T: Francis Casey| OR: 93

14/1

25/1, thirteenth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16.7f, soft) 27 days ago. Readily passed over.

Form: 9P424/0

Diamonds Diva⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Kevin A Murphy⁽⁷⁾| T: Patrick Cronin| OR: 91

100/1

First run since leaving Mrs J. Harrington when 80/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Listowel (22f, good to soft) 8 days ago, pulled up before 4 out. Down in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Form: 7377-9P

Boston Queen¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Jake Coen| T: G Elliott| OR: 88

50/1

Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Open to improvement now pitched into a handicap.

Form: 996

Benzine¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Shane Fitzgerald| T: J Morrison| OR: 86

28/1

16/1, 19 lengths tenth of 15 to Carla's Pet in handicap hurdle at Listowel (18f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Others more persuasive.

Form: P0-8060

Bringsty⁵⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-0| J: Simon Torrens| T: N C Kelly| OR: 86

5/2

Creditable sixth of 15 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Ballinrobe (16.5f, good) 55 days ago. Can make presence felt, granted a reproduction of that effort.

Form: 008-706

Party Pack^t³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-8| J: Danny Gilligan| T: J P Flavin| OR: 80

3/1

9/1, very good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.9f, good) 37 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.

Form: 0F-PP42

Boston Bobby^p⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-5| J: Tiernan Power Roche⁽⁵⁾| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 77

9/1

22/1, good fifth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (16f, good to soft) 9 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. One to consider.

Form: 0P/P20-5

Added Bonus^p,t¹¹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-0| J: Phillip Enright| T: Brendan Walsh| OR: 72

50/1

Two wins from 51 NH runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2024. Well-beaten last of 15 to Carla's Pet in handicap hurdle (40/1) at Listowel (18f, good to soft) 11 days ago.

Form: 87-90P0

Forecasts

Bringsty (5/2), Party Pack (3/1), Gaoithe Glory (11/2), Carla's Pet (7/1), Shannon Bank (15/2), Boston Bobby (9/1), Kingdom Calling (11/1), Rock Ya Boy Ya (14/1), Benzine (28/1), Howayahoney (33/1), Boston Queen (50/1), Added Bonus (50/1), Jessie's Dreamgirl (80/1), Diamonds Diva (100/1)

The vote goes to PARTY PACK, who produced his best effort yet when second at Wexford and a reproduction of that would probably suffice in this contest. That said, it's likely that Boston Queen will take a significant step forward not going down the handicap route and she is one to monitor closely in the betting. Shannon Bank is third on the list ahead of Boston Bobby and recent Listowel winner Carla's Pet.
