Off time: 15:23 | Winning time: 6m 8.00s

Bergamasquo⁵¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell

12/1

Failed to build on debut second at Gowran Park when only ninth of 20 in novice hurdle at Naas (19f, heavy, 11/4) 51 days ago. Up in trip and worth another chance for good yard.

Form: 2F2/29

Fillyoureye³²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| OR: 120| BF

7/4

Lightly-raced winner who was in very good nick until an odds-on third of 7 in novice hurdle at Cork (24f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Not written off by any means.

Form: 41/223

Frankie's Freebie³²

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

9/2

Fairly useful maiden who posted a solid second of 7 in novice hurdle at Cork (24f, good to soft, 7/1) 32 days ago. Well in the mix.

Form: 930/132

Lord Tobin²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott

14/1

Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Below-form seventh of 14 in novice hurdle at this course (19.3f, heavy, 5/1) 23 days ago. Trainer going well so could bounce back though.

Form: 40/37

That Danny Feeling⁶⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: John Shinnick⁽³⁾| T: T O'Brien| OR: 119

9/4

Useful bumper winner who progressed again back hurdling when second of 18 in novice at Clonmel (19.4f, heavy) 64 days ago. A player stepping up in trip.

Form: 3/13212

Therhythmofthenite^h1,t³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Ricky Doyle| T: M Brassil

11/2

Being brought along steadily, coming in a never-dangerous eighth of 15 in novice hurdle at Leopardstown (20.7f, good, 17/2) 38 days ago. Hood on 1st time and can do better in due course.

Form: 48

Aint Over Yet²³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Carl Millar⁽⁵⁾| T: N Slevin

150/1

150/1, twelfth of 13 in bumper at this course (16.2f, heavy) on NH debut 23 days ago. Makes hurdles debut with lots more needed.

Form: 280

Nolans Rocco³⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Phillip Enright| T: Padraig Butler

40/1

Modest chaser. 10/1, good fourth of 14 in handicap chase at Tramore (22.8f, soft) 34 days ago. Switches to hurdles now and she's no forlorn hope.

Form: 0/48074

Non-Runners

Fervida¹

Weight: 11-5| Age: 6

T: J A Berry J: Ross Berry

Forecasts

Fillyoureye (7/4), That Danny Feeling (9/4), Frankie's Freebie (9/2), Therhythmofthenite (11/2), Bergamasquo (12/1), Lord Tobin (14/1), Nolans Rocco (40/1), Fervida (100/1), Aint Over Yet (150/1)

THAT DANNY FEELING signalled he is ready to strike over hurdles when an excellent second in a big-field novice at Clonmel last time out and can add to his two bumper victories here. Cork runner-up Frankie's Freebie could emerge as the main danger, although both Fillyoureye and Bergamasquo remain with potential and could also have a say in an intriguing maiden.
