Tom Quinlan Electrical Maiden Hurdle

Off time: 15:51 | Winning time: 5m 17.30s

Another Fool¹³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Tiernan Power Roche| T: P J Rothwell

200/1

Vendangeur gelding. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful chaser (stays 31f) Concetto. Fell sole start in points (Nov 2025) and probably one for the longer-term.

Form: F

Barnpark^t⁵⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: G P Cromwell| BF

25/1

Walk In The Park gelding who was successful sole start in points (Nov 2025) and should be suited by switch to hurdles/longer trips, following an encouraging third in a Thurles bumper in February.

Form: 13

Clone Cross⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Donagh Meyler| T: S Cavanagh

300/1

Maiden pointer never landed a blow on hurdle debut at Downpatrick 6 days ago.

Form: B34-F36

Dubhain^t¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: P J O'Hanlon| T: S R B Crawford

80/1

Stoutly-bred point winner is progressing steadily, backed at long odds when fifth at Downpatrick last time and should appreciate the step back up in trip.

Form: 1-3355

Glenary Prince

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mike O'Connor| T: H De Bromhead

125/1

Poet's Word gelding. Dam (c123/h143) bumper/2m/2¼m hurdle winner, out of sister to useful chaser (stayed 4m) Back On Line. Debutant from excellent yard is well worth a market check.

Form:

He Can't Dance^t,b1⁶¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 125

3/1

Useful bumper winner went close to opening his hurdle account at Thurles in November and having run well to finish third in 3m listed handicap at Leopardstown in February, he's entitled to go close back in a maiden.

Form: 8-33233

It'llbeworthit

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Charlie O'Dwyer⁽⁵⁾| T: C O'Dwyer

200/1

Elzaam gelding. Brother to 6f-10.7f winner Cherry Pink. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 10.5f winner Mutebah from family of Nayef, Nashwan and Unfuwain. Doesn't look an obvious type on paper.

Form:

King Of The Greys¹²⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Jake Coen| T: Peter Fahey

80/1

Kingston Hill gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful chaser Lift Me Up, stays 3½m. Made frame only outing in points (Nov 2025) but likely to need more time/distance.

Form: 4

Largy Star^t1⁶⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell

6/1

Dual point winner was no match for useful sort on bumper debut and with first-time tongue strap on, he's worth noting for support now sent hurdling by capable yard (also saddles Barnpark).

Form: 4-112

Le Questionnaire⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny Gilligan| T: G Elliott

50/1

€18,000 3-y-o, £27,000 5-y-o, Earnshaw gelding. Dam, 1¼m/10.5f winner in France, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (17f winner) Myakoda. Placed both starts in British points in December, though unlikely to be the stable's leading hope.

Form: 32

Leo Messy⁶

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

400/1

Fared no better than on debut at Downpatrick 6 days ago.

Form: 00

Little Big John

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Philip Donovan⁽³⁾| T: M Magnussen

80/1

€9,000 3-y-o, Affinisea gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/chaser Chapel Green. Dam unraced out of half-sister to 1¼m Group 2 winner Polaire. Likely to be an outsider on racecourse bow.

Form:

Midnight Jet⁹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: H De Bromhead

9/2

Fairly useful debut bumper winner has made a promising start over hurdles for new yard, splitting a pair of subsequent winners when fifth at Leopardstown last time, and he could progress again.

Form: 135

Minella Diamond⁹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Danny Mullins| T: W J Lanigan| OR: 113

50/1

Fairly useful bumper winner seemingly hasn't been the easiest to train, adding to a patchy record when well held fourth at Limerick in December.

Form: 26/02F4

Mor Go Leor¹⁶

Age: 12| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr W Verling⁽⁷⁾| T: P M Verling

300/1

Successful on second of 2 starts in points (March 2025) but offered little on Rules debut at Cork.

Form: 5/1-0

Papagei⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: James Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: T Gibney

200/1

Fairly useful handicapper on Flat for James Ferguson but went backwards from hurdling bow when falling at Downpatrick last time.

Form: 7F

Petit Secret³³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins| BF| C

4/1

Looked a good prospect when winning course bumper on debut and returning from 27 months off, showed he retains plenty of ability when third on hurdles bow at Leopardstown. Runner-up has improved since and he's entitled to do better stepping up in trip.

Form: F1/3

Regno³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Ricky Doyle| T: Colm Murphy

125/1

Clearly still learning at Naas on second hurdle start and will be better off in handicaps.

Form: 580

Ri An Stoirm^h1⁵⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Paddy Cleary⁽⁷⁾| T: G Elliott

200/1

Out of a dam who is a half-sister to smart hurdler Stormy Ireland (stayed 2½m) but never involved on Navan hurdle debut in February.

Form: 7

Seek A Richer Life

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mark McDonagh| T: S O O'Brien

150/1

Westerner gelding. Dam, placed in points, out of unraced half-sister to smart chaser Thisthatandtother. Unlikely to make an impact in the short-term.

Form:

Sine Qua Non²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Mark Walsh| T: P Roche| BF

11/5

Wide-margin point winner who chased home pair of subsequent hurdle winners on Navan bumper debut, prior to an encouraging third on hurdles bow at Naas. Wasn't given a hard time that day and with improvement expected, he's very much one to consider.

Form: 13-3

Treasure Memory⁹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Daniel King| T: A J Martin

12/1

Runner-up to useful sort on hurdle debut but failed to progress for the step up in trip when third over C&D on New Year's Day. Too soon to dismiss given his earlier promise.

Form: 2-233

Shortt Fuse³¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Cian Cullinan⁽⁷⁾| T: Ms H P Markham

500/1

Well held both starts and makes little appeal this side of handicaps.

Form: 08

Cometothinkofit⁴¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Peter Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: P Roche

250/1

Walk In The Park gelding. Dam (h136), 2m-2¼m hurdle winner. Shaped like one for later on when well beaten (80/1) on Naas debut in February.

Form: 0

Who's Going²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-4| J: Jordan Gainford| T: G Elliott

250/1

Looks to be a handicap project for excellent yard.

Form: 08

Non-Runners

Siege Of Carthage²⁸

Weight: 11-12| Age: 6

T: J Halley J: Reserve 1

Forecasts

Sine Qua Non (11/5), He Can't Dance (3/1), Petit Secret (4/1), Midnight Jet (9/2), Largy Star (6/1), Treasure Memory (12/1), Siege Of Carthage (16/1), Barnpark (25/1), Minella Diamond (50/1), Le Questionnaire (50/1), Dubhain (80/1), King Of The Greys (80/1), Little Big John (80/1), Glenary Prince (125/1), Regno (125/1), Seek A Richer Life (150/1), Papagei (200/1), It'llbeworthit (200/1), Another Fool (200/1), Ri An Stoirm (200/1), Who's Going (250/1), Cometothinkofit (250/1), Mor Go Leor (300/1), Clone Cross (300/1), Leo Messy (400/1), Shortt Fuse (500/1)

SINE QUA NON is open to plenty of improvement and is fancied to surpass the standard set by He Can't Dance. Willie Mullins' Petit Secret is unexposed and would be dangerous to dismiss.
