Beckett Rock²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Sean Flanagan| T: H De Bromhead| BF

14/1

Useful hurdler but poor 13th of 16 in chasing debut at Naas (11/4) 20 days ago, making errors and later found abnormal. Better over this trip.

Form: 10260-0

Born Braver¹²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: G P Cromwell

80/1

Dual hurdle winner who finished ninth of 11 at Navan (80/1) in maiden chase 12 days ago, given a considerate introduction to fences. Step up in trip could suit having won over 3m hurdles previously.

Form: 221/15-9

Goraibhmaithagat²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mark Walsh| T: Colm Murphy

7/1

Hurdle winner last December and has twice finished second in better hurdle company. Fifth of 16 in maiden chase at Naas (6/1) 20 days ago when making chase debut after 7 months off, finishing with running left. Should improve over this longer trip with that chase debut under his belt.

Form: 1/1229-5

Icare D'aubrelle^h²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Donagh Meyler| T: T Cooper| C

100/1

Won a maiden hurdle at this track (10/3) in April before finishing ninth of 16 in maiden chase at Naas (25/1) 20 days ago, led before fading. Should be sharper for the experience but faces a significant step up in trip.

Form: 5/3P51-9

Jacob's Ladder²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott

7/2

Won two hurdle races last season including a Grade 3, but pulled up in Grade 1 company at Aintree. Made a satisfactory chasing debut when 2nd of 16 in a maiden chase at Naas (7/1) 20 days ago. Should benefit from this step up in trip and looks a likely improver over fences.

Form: 7511P-2

Jimmy Du Seuil²⁶²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

15/8

Smart performer over hurdles who was impressive winner of Coral Cup at Cheltenham in March, forging clear after the last having travelled well throughout. The one to beat if taking to fences at the first attempt.

Form: 21245/1-

Journey So Far^h1⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Kieren Buckley| T: G P Cromwell

100/1

Maiden after 6 starts, fell 4 out when making some headway from rear at Punchestown (250/1) 7 days ago on chasing debut. First-time hood may help with tendency to pull hard.

Form: 8U95-9F

Joystick²³⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Brian Hayes| T: W P Mullins

12/1

Won a maiden hurdle in January 2025 but seventh of 8 in Grade 2 at Fairyhouse (9/2) 237 days ago when jumping mistakes led to dropping away. Chase debut with reports suggesting more suitable discipline.

Form: 7/41P27-

Lucky Lyreen¹³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Sam Ewing| T: G Elliott| C

66/1

Useful handicap hurdler with 3 wins from 16 starts ran well below form when ninth of 12 in maiden chase at Navan (40/1) 13 days ago on chasing debut. Should improve for that experience.

Form: 86305-9

Meet And Greet²¹²

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Phillip Enright| T: O McKiernan

18/1

Three-time hurdle winner who was tailed off when out of his depth as last of 11 in Grade 1 hurdle at Punchestown (66/1) 212 days ago. Making chase debut.

Form: 7/6152P-

More Coko^h²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Shane Fitzgerald| T: W P Mullins| OR: 125

80/1

Has shown fairly useful form in chases but finished eighth of 16 in maiden chase at Naas (20/1) 20 days ago, not always fluent. The significant step up in trip may suit better.

Form: 12F-458

Raglan Road²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Simon Torrens| T: H De Bromhead

50/1

Has shown useful hurdle form including third at Cheltenham. Seventh of 16 in chase debut at Naas (25/1) 20 days ago, never better than mid-division but jumping largely assured. Making significant step up in trip which has suited previously.

Form: 1P/53P-7

The Wallpark²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny Gilligan| T: G Elliott| D

12/1

Smart hurdler but discouraging start over fences when 11th of 16 in maiden chase at Naas (5/1) 20 days ago. Return to further will at least suit.

Form: 11434-0

Thetownilovedsowel³⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: P A Fahy

200/1

Lightly-raced 6yo who fell heavily 3 out when racing off the pace in maiden chase at Galway (150/1) 34 days ago. Needs significant improvement to be competitive.

Form: 18-F

The Big Westerner²²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Mike O'Connor| T: H De Bromhead| BF| D

11/4

Won twice over hurdles before fine second in Albert Bartlett. Pulled up in Grade 1 at this course (6/4) 223 days ago. Should prove at least as good in this sphere (won sole start in points).

Form: 1/112P-

Forecasts

Jimmy Du Seuil (15/8), The Big Westerner (11/4), Jacob's Ladder (7/2), Goraibhmaithagat (7/1), Joystick (12/1), The Wallpark (12/1), Beckett Rock (14/1), Meet And Greet (18/1), Raglan Road (50/1), Lucky Lyreen (66/1), More Coko (80/1), Born Braver (80/1), Journey So Far (100/1), Icare D'aubrelle (100/1), Thetownilovedsowel (200/1)

Impressive Coral Cup winner JIMMY DU SEUIL looks the one to beat if taking to fences at the first attempt. Albert Bartlett runner-up The Big Westerner is the type to make a chaser and looks the obvious threat. Jacob's Ladder has the best chase form after making a satisfactory start over fences when second in a maiden at Naas on return.
