Race And Stay Handicap Chase

Off time: 15:45 | Winning time: 4m 12.7s

Win Some Lose Some³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Aidan Kelly⁽³⁾| T: P Roche| OR: 132

12/1

Useful hurdler who has yet to build on an encouraging chase debut at Galway (22.5f) in October. All his previous win have come over further than this but he can make an impact now handicapping.

Form: 108/387

Golden Joy^b1,t¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 131

14/1

Fairly useful hurdler who looked on the up over fences when winning at Leopardstown (17f, good) in March. Undone by his jumping both starts since, latest when supported on reappearance at Leopardstown (17f, good, 6/1) 14 days ago. First-time blinkers could help sharpen him up.

Form: 90517/P

Mclaurey²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 11-13| J: Mark Walsh| T: E Mullins| OR: 131| D

11/4

Looked a progressive 2m hurdler prior to finishing last in the County at Cheltenham. Back on track over fences, again catching the eye when third of 13 in maiden chase at Fairyhouse (2m, soft) 27 days ago, not given hard time. Looks very interesting now handicapping.

Form: 3110/43

Je T'ai Porte^h¹⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-5| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 123| D

50/1

Useful at her best over fences but arrives out of sorts (fairly treated as a result). Remains to be seen if she can bounce back.

Form: 83/6180

Champagne Mahler⁴¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-4| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 122| D

5/1

Promising over fences last season but yet to fire this campaign, below form seventh of 12 in handicap chase (28/1) at Fairyhouse (17.1f, soft) 41 days ago, going in snatches. Needs to do more.

Form: 7219/77

Park That^h²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Simon Torrens| T: E Bolger| OR: 114| D

7/2

Steadily progressed as a hurdler and sent off long odds both starts over fences, shaping better than the result on chase debut prior jumping left at Fairyhouse last time. Should be capable of better now switched to a handicap and interesting if supported.

Form: F441/09

Rockbrook^p⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-8| J: Tiernan Power Roche⁽³⁾| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 112| D

7/2

Improving as a chaser, making his fourth start over fences a winning one when successful in 9-runner novice chase at Tramore (15.8f, soft, 17/2) 8 days ago, holding on gamely having been ridden positively. Ought to hold his own back in a handicap.

Form: 187/731

Ferdia²⁰

Age: 10| Weight: 10-3| J: Brian Barry⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 107| D

150/1

Pulled up both starts following long absence, latest in handicap chase at Thurles (21.6f, good to soft, 125/1) 20 days ago, tailing off some way out. Back down in trip with questions to answer.

Form: 7445/PP

Mount Frisco¹⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 10-3| J: Daniel King| T: J P Ryan| OR: 107| D

11/2

Eighteen runs since last win in 2024 but that's reflected in his mark and he arrives in good heart, finishing third of 14 in handicap chase at Limerick (17.6f, heavy) 14 days ago. Seemingly working his way back to his best and looks well-treated now.

Form: 6/8P523

Forecasts

Mclaurey (11/4), Battle Of Ridgeway (3/1), Rockbrook (7/2), Park That (7/2), Champagne Mahler (5/1), Moudan (5/1), Mount Frisco (11/2), Win Some Lose Some (12/1), Golden Joy (14/1), Je T'ai Porte (50/1), Ferdia (150/1)

MCLAUREY showed plenty as a hurdler last season and has caught the eye in a pair of maiden chases this winter. He's fancied to make a winning handicap debut, while Mount Frisco could be very well-treated if building on the promise he showed over fences last month. Park That is one to note in the betting now switched to handicaps.
