Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: E Mullins| CD

6/1

Debut winner here and took a huge step forward when following up in Grade 2 at Leopardstown in February 2024. Off since but the pick on form if retaining ability.

Form: 111/

Charismatic Kid⁶³

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr H C Swan| T: G Elliott| OR: 127| BF| D

3/1

Overcame inexperience to win at Navan on debut for Colm Ryan. Purchased for £300,000 on the back of that and made a sound start for Gordon Elliott when 2½ lengths third in a Grade 2 at Leopardstown. Big shout.

Form: 13

Leonard Vallis⁶⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr D Allen⁽⁷⁾| T: T O'Brien| D

10/1

Runner-up on Gowran hurdle debut but was too free switched to a bumper next time. Left that effort behind when winning at Thurles in February, settling better under more patient tactics.

Form: 201

Luidgi Du Luy⁵⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr M J O'Neill⁽⁷⁾| T: E Mullins| D

9/2

French recruit who made winning start for new connections in Navan bumper 8 weeks ago and likely to be thereabouts.

Form: 31

State Pension⁴³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr P A King⁽³⁾| T: D H Kelly| BF| D

20/1

Narrowly denied on debut and went one better with a wide-margin success at Tipperary. Disappointed back from a break at Naas since, however, and bit to find here.

Form: 213

Big Boy Dan

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Alan O'Sullivan⁽⁷⁾| T: Edward F Power

20/1

€10,500 3-y-o, Doyen gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Exit To The West, stayed 3¼m. Dam, winning pointer, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3¼m) Potters Cross. Best watched on belated debut.

Form:

Dorie Miller^t1³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: A Sexton

300/1

Showed only modest form at best in 4 outings for Noel Meade and dropped away quickly starting out for this yard at Gowran. Loads to find with tongue strap now tried.

Form: 0-9647

Octo Gane⁶⁹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr F Maguire| T: B Pauling| BF

50/1

€52,000 3-y-o, Muhtathir gelding. Dam French hurdler/chase winner up to 2¼m. 6/4, shaped well when fourth of 8 in bumper at Huntingdon on debut in May 2024 but off since.

Form: 4-

The Old Head¹²¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr D G Lavery| T: G P Cromwell

4/1

€40,000 3-y-o by Walk In The Park. Closely related to fair hurdler Ballyfort. Dam, hurdle winner around 2m. Easy winner sole outing in points (Dec 2025) so one to note in the betting.

Form: 1

Poetisa²⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins| BF

11/2

Debut bumper winner at Cheltenham in April and took a big step forward from her hurdling debut when chasing home a thriving mare at Navan. Good second back in a bumper since but more needed here.

Form: 1-222

Queen Alice

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Anna McGuinness⁽⁷⁾| T: L Fowler

20/1

Walk In The Park mare. Half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser Queens Gamble, stays 2½m, and bumper winner Brosna Queen. Dam 2m/17f hurdle/chase winner. Stiff task on debut.

Form:

Storm Queen¹⁰¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: Mr J L Gleeson| T: E & P Harty

40/1

Won sole start in points (Apr 2025) but failed to meet expectations in Limerick bumper on Boxing Day and since left Jonathan Fogarty.

Forecasts

Charismatic Kid (3/1), The Old Head (4/1), Luidgi Du Luy (9/2), Soul Asylum (5/1), Poetisa (11/2), Jeroboam Machin (6/1), Leonard Vallis (10/1), Queen Alice (20/1), State Pension (20/1), Big Boy Dan (20/1), Storm Queen (40/1), Octo Gane (50/1), Dorie Miller (300/1)

CHARISMATIC KID looks the one to beat having finished third in a Grade 2 at Leopardstown 9 weeks ago. Jeroboam Machin is a Grade 2 winner himself but is returning from a 2-year absence, while the selection's stablemate Soul Asylum looked a good prospect when winning at Punchestown.
