125/1

Little recent form and arrives with something to prove.

Form: 23PP/P0

Mount Shenshan^h⁵⁴

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr C Mullins⁽⁷⁾| T: T Mullins| OR: 98| C

14/1

Sole win came win here but she underlined her inconsistency when seventh of 11 in novice chase (8/1) at Cork (20f, good to soft) 54 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Back over hurdles now.

Form: P37267

Take Chance^b1²⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Anna McGuinness⁽⁷⁾| T: J C McConnell| OR: 98

20/1

Maiden who hit the frame in pair of handicaps prior to finishing fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (23.8f, good to soft, 9/2) 25 days ago. More severe headgear/testing ground likely to help this thorough stayer.

Form: 6PP435-

Ballyglass Beauty⁵⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-10| J: Eoin Staples⁽⁵⁾| T: C Collins| OR: 96| D

14/1

Three-time winner around this trip and has placed in a couple of handicaps this season (below form latest). Interesting if back on song for capable new yard.

Form: 3462B8

Great Island⁴²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-9| J: Dylan Whelan⁽⁷⁾| T: E Griffin| OR: 95| C

18/1

Course winner here in December but found run of good form coming to a halt at when tenth of 15 at Fairyhouse (20f, heavy) last time. Shaped like a non-stayer on sole previous try around 3m.

Form: 08/7140

Ossifer Hops¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Ethan O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: Bernard Crowley| OR: 94

50/1

Hit and miss performer who is yet to fire at all for new connections.

Form: 406606

Roccabaker^t³¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-8| J: Cian Quirke| T: D H Kelly| OR: 94

4/1

Off the mark at Tramore and backed that up when third of 13 at Punchestown (23f, heavy) 31 days ago (runner-up winning since). Low mileage for her age and should go well again.

Form: 920613

Carlas Big Jim⁶²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-6| J: Mr C J Shine⁽⁷⁾| T: L J Archdeacon| OR: 92| C

14/1

Course winner who caught the eye under a patient ride when a running-on fifth of 14 in handicap chase (14/1) at Limerick (17.6f, heavy) last time. Longer trip a question mark back over hurdles.

Form: 560705

Diamond Island^t¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Kieren Buckley| T: E Buckley| OR: 90

28/1

Stepped up from recent maiden runs when well held third on handicap bow at Limerick (21f, heavy) 16 days ago. Still early days but will need to take another step forward for the longer trip

Form: P5P003

Toor Idaho⁶¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Liam Quinlan| T: Ms M Flynn| OR: 90

80/1

Maiden pulled up pair of runs in December and has something to prove returning from a short break.

Form: 0P84PP

Love Like This^b¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-0| J: Michael Kenneally⁽⁵⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 86

28/1

Longstanding maiden who attracted support in first-time blinkers (retained) when unseating over much shorter at Limerick (15.7f). Has shaped with some promise over this sort of trip previously and worth noting if the money come again.

Form: 63P46U

Mullanour⁵⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Cian Cullinan⁽⁷⁾| T: W J Martin| OR: 85| D

14/1

Well below his best this season and easy to look elsewhere.

Form: FP97P0

Brown Boots⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Brian Hayes| T: L P Cusack| OR: 84| D

1/1

Justified support to land 12-runner handicap chase (7/4) at Navan (24f, heavy) on debut over fences 40 days ago, well suited by step up in trip. Lightly raced for age and makes appeal racing off same mark back over hurdles.

Form: 886/951

Cordal Boy²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Gary Noonan| T: E McCarthy| OR: 84

10/1

Back on track when creditable third of 17 on stable debut (28/1) at Thurles (22.9f, heavy) 21 days ago. Hasn't many miles on the clock and should stay this far.

Form: 590903

Fortunate Outcome⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Josh Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: B McMahon| OR: 72

14/1

Maiden best not judged on latest run but remains with stamina to prove over this distance (failed to see out her race over 23f last month).

Form: 7PP648

Forecasts

Brown Boots (1/1), Roccabaker (4/1), Milanaway (11/2), Cordal Boy (10/1), Mullanour (14/1), Ballyglass Beauty (14/1), Fortunate Outcome (14/1), Carlas Big Jim (14/1), Mount Shenshan (14/1), Great Island (18/1), Take Chance (20/1), Diamond Island (28/1), Love Like This (28/1), Millie B (33/1), Ossifer Hops (50/1), Toor Idaho (80/1), Toofareastiswest (125/1)

ROCCABAKER ticks plenty of boxes and she's preferred to interesting stable debutant Ballyglass Beauty. Brown Boots could be the fly in the ointment, racing off the same mark as when successful over fences last time.
