BOYLE Sports Money Back On Every Race At Cheltenham Handicap Hurdle

Off time: 14:25 | Winning time: 5m 43.60s

Quest With Speed^b¹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Jordan Gainford| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 115| CD

12/1

Capitalised on a lower hurdles mark to win over C&D in December but followed a respectable effort at Limerick with a lacklustre one at Gowran last time.

Form: P6P170

Jerrari^h1¹⁷⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-10| J: Simon Torrens| T: Mrs J Harrington| OR: 113

33/1

Won back-to-back handicap hurdles in July and while seemingly too high in weights subsequently, this step up in trip (in first-time hood) offers some hope for improvement, given his pedigree.

Form: 421147

Showurappreciation⁴⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: Mark Walsh| T: Jonathan Sweeney| OR: 112

4/6

Progressing over fences, overcoming positional bias when easy winner of 13-runner handicap chase (5/1) at Punchestown (22.6f, heavy) 48 days ago, and could be potentially well-treated back over hurdles.

Form: 168/831

St Denis's Well^p,t⁶¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: James Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: Ian Donoghue| OR: 112| C| D

7/2

Reported to have bled when pulled up over fences in December, but prior to that he enhanced an excellent record at this track when winning 2m handicap hurdle in November and he has definite claims if back on song.

Form: 9/9916P

Silver Salute¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-6| J: Keith Donoghue| T: Ian Donoghue| OR: 109

100/1

Placed in points but hasn't shown much since his hurdles debut at Leopardstown in December. Market should prove very informative now sent handicapping, his yard also saddling 3-time course winner St Denis's Well.

Form: 5/37890

Lady Bluebird^p1⁵⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: Eoghan Finegan⁽⁷⁾| T: H P Finegan| OR: 98| D

12/1

Continues to fall in the weights without looking like taking advantage. Now tried in cheekpieces.

Form: 0080/07

Chosen Diamond^p²¹

Age: 10| Weight: 10-8| J: Philip Donovan⁽³⁾| T: E Cawley| OR: 97| D

6/1

Yet to fire this season and still 1 lb above his last winning mark.

Form: 129/896

Forecasts

Showurappreciation (4/6), St Denis's Well (7/2), Chosen Diamond (6/1), Quest With Speed (12/1), Lady Bluebird (12/1), Vallon Du Plessis (12/1), Jerrari (33/1), Silver Salute (100/1)

An easy winner over fences last time, SHOWURAPPRECIATION makes plenty of appeal from a significantly lower hurdles mark. St Denis's Well has a fine course record and should feature prominently if bouncing back, while the step up in trip could well suit the returning Jerrari.
