D & J Glazing Handicap Hurdle

4YO plus | 2m 5f 100y | 8 Runners | Turf

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 122

Had the run of things when bouncing back to form (in first-time blinkers) to finish fifth of 9 in a fairly useful race at Leopardstown in December. In excellent hands and cannot be discounted on just his second start in a handicap.

Form: 20-1265

Collaborative^b1⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Phillip Enright| T: O McKiernan| OR: 120

4/1

Consistent and versatile sort finished fourth of 16 in a handicap at Naas (15.5f) in late-February (still every chance when flattened 2 out). Placed on both previous starts at this track and may do even better with the addition of first-time blinkers.

Form: F3-0224

Grange Walk^b³⁵

Age: 11| Weight: 11-5| J: Daniel King| T: J P Ryan| OR: 113| CD

14/1

Veteran, who having been out of sorts over fences this year, returns to the race he won 12 months ago off just a 1 lb higher mark. Interesting if supported.

Form: 3P8905

Colleen Danu^t¹⁹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-2| J: Simon Torrens| T: P T Foley| OR: 110

7/2

Finished ahead of a couple of next-time-out winners when runner-up on latest start at Clonmel in October and needs considering, given she made a winning return from a similar lay-off last season.

Form: 0-14042

Crowsatedappletart¹⁶⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 10-9| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: M Winters| OR: 103| BF| CD

5/1

Likeable sort who won 3 times over fences last year and was probably feeling the effects of a busy campaign when turning in a rare poor effort in a Cork handicap hurdle in November. Worth another chance off appreciably lower hurdles mark.

Form: 165217

Jay Jay Zee⁹⁰¹

Age: 7| Weight: 10-9| J: Brian Barry⁽⁷⁾| T: Charlie Keegan| OR: 103

40/1

Off since finishing down the field in a Galway handicap hurdle for Gordon Elliott in October 2023 and he's entitled to need the run on stable debut.

Form: 325540/

Miss Corby⁶¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Mr H C Swan| T: M F Morris| OR: 102

8/1

Landed a gamble at Ballinrobe last season but hasn't built on that in a couple of handicaps, for all she'd been off for 9 months prior to finishing eighth of 14 at Gowran in mid-February.

Form: 9751-68

Way Down South^t,p¹⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: Calum Hogan⁽⁵⁾| T: G Scott| OR: 99| C

4/1

Returned to form from out of the blue in first-time cheekpieces/tongue strap when successful in a Cork beginners chase and having unseated before the race began in earnest at Limerick latest, could be interesting if headgear has same effect back over hurdles.

Form: 49771U

Forecasts

Ma Jacks Hill (2/1), Colleen Danu (10/3), Collaborative (4/1), Way Down South (5/1), Crowsatedappletart (6/1), Grange Walk (20/1), Jay Jay Zee (20/1), Miss Corby (20/1)

An intriguing handicap despite the number of runners, with marginal preference for COLLABORATIVE who has a good record here and looks the type to benefit from first-time blinkers. Way Down South was reinvigorated by headgear when winning at Cork in January and could be dangerous if in similar form here, with returning Crowsatedappletart still feared off a significantly lower hurdles mark.
