€35,000 3-y-o, £55,000 4-y-o. Second foal: dam (c122/h112), 2½m/21f hurdle/chase winner, closely related to fair hurdler (stayed 21f) Blue Beach. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in points (Dec 7). Plenty to like on paper.

Form: 55/FU5

Mary O'g⁴⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr J L Gleeson| T: H De Bromhead

5/4

Made plenty of appeal on pedigree and duly showed plenty when third of 9 in bumper at Cork (10/3) 7 weeks ago, pulling clear of remainder. Fancied to go a couple of places better here.

Form: 3

Moyneard⁶⁴⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr D Doyle⁽⁷⁾| T: T Doyle

8/1

Affinisea mare who offered something to work on when fourth of 17 in 16f bumper at Cork (22/1) back in May 2024. Cleary had her issues to not have been seen since so watching brief advised.

Forecasts

Mary O'g (5/4), C'est Elle (11/4), Kiltybo (3/1), Belladaball (3/1), Moyneard (8/1), Certosa (33/1), Dlightofdsun (33/1)

Preference is for MARY O'G, who pulled clear of the remainder when third in a steadily-run bumper at Cork last month and with improvement on the cards, Henry de Bromhead's mare could well prove a tough nut to crack. C'est Elle can give her most to think about having finished runner-up on her second of 2 starts in points, with Belladaball taken to edge out Kiltybo for minor honours.
