Tomas O Maille^t¹⁷³

Age: 9| Weight: 12-0| J: Jack Gilligan⁽⁵⁾| T: M Flannery| OR: 99

Out of sorts when last seen, including when tenth of 15 in a handicap chase at Thurles (16/1) in November. Been given a big chance in the weights back over hurdles on return.

Ilbdare^t¹³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: Phillip Enright| T: M M McNiff| OR: 98| C

7/1

Best 2 efforts last season came here, successful in the staying handicap hurdle on this card and second in October. Good course form bodes well but he might need this after 4 months off.

Form: 31782/9-

Ladiam^t¹⁹⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: Michael Kenneally⁽⁵⁾| T: N Lee| OR: 95| C

6/1

Several fine efforts after scoring here in June (both wins have been at this track) and returns on a workable mark with good-value conditional booked.

Form: 625237/

Lady's Choice³⁰¹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 92

66/1

Shaped as if amiss on handicap debut at Downpatrick last July and remains with little solid form.

Form: FF9049/

Dunany Point^p⁴⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-5| J: Kieren Buckley| T: Conor Maxwell| OR: 90| D

11/2

Hasn't returned in much form but did well with the cheekpieces on/positive tactics employed under this rider in handicaps last summer/autumn and worth a look with the headgear refitted now.

Form: 6236/89-

Friar Hogan¹⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-5| J: Sean O'Keeffe| T: D Hassett| OR: 90

28/1

Shown little in 4 starts, never dangerous on handicap debut at Thurles in October. Back up in trip on return.

Form: 0060/

Button Rock^b1⁵⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-3| J: Sam Ewing| T: G Elliott| OR: 88

11/1

Lightly-raced maiden who ran no sort of race on handicap debut at Down Royal in March and off again since. First-time blinkers applied and remains with potential.

Form: 27805/0-

Mother Ship^p²⁰⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-1| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 86

10/1

Maiden hurdler (0-17 in this sphere) but very much caught the eye at Thurles when last seen, keeping on from 3 out under considerate handling. Interesting on return.

Form: 3752P5/

The Eggler¹⁹⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-0| J: James Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: B McMahon| OR: 85| BF

13/2

Standout effort when fifth of 19 on handicap debut at Galway (3m) in a first-time hood last September. Headgear left off on return and probably best watched.

Form: 00F58P/

Island Mccoo^t⁸²

Age: 9| Weight: 10-13| J: Niall Moore⁽⁵⁾| T: D Duggan| OR: 84

13/2

Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests back in a tongue tie in Thurles handicap chase in February and on a career-low mark back from a break.

Form: F79P/88-

Lariat¹⁹⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 10-12| J: Donagh Meyler| T: L P Cusack| OR: 83

9/1

42 runs without a win (long-standing maiden over jumps) and tailed off on chasing debut at Thurles when last seen in October.

Form: 826599/

Love Like This⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: Brian Barry⁽⁷⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 82

11/2

Poor maiden who is out of sorts (stiff task last time).

Form: 6UP00-4

Celtic Crossing⁵⁷⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Philip Donovan⁽³⁾| T: D Collins| OR: 81

28/1

Showed a bit when fifth on handicap debut at Roscommon in September 2024 but off since finishing well held at Punchestown the following month.

Road To The Weir¹³⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 10-10| J: Alan King⁽⁷⁾| T: J Neilan| OR: 81

50/1

Poor maiden who looked a hard ride in Limerick handicap chase at Christmas.

Form: 365060/

Golden Order^h1,t1¹⁷⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Eoin Walsh| T: Patrick Reilly| OR: 79

66/1

Has shown nothing in bumpers/maiden hurdles. First-time hood and tongue strap for handicap debut after a break but hard to recommend.

Form: 99P55P/

Doyen Wolf¹¹⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 10-10| J: Shane O'Callaghan⁽⁵⁾| T: J R Finn| OR: 81

10/1

LADIAM goes well here and can make a winning return for a good-value conditional. Mother Ship caught the eye at Thurles when last seen in the autumn and is worth considering, while a revival could be forthcoming from Dunany Point.
