12/1
Third career success at Clonmel in November (3m). Matched that level when third at Cork in March but profile has an up-and-down look to it and he may well have been amiss when pulled up back there 37 days ago, tailing off circuit out.

First run since leaving John McConnell and didn't achieve a great deal despite finishing second of 12 in novice chase at Tramore (2¾m, good to soft, 13/2) 22 days ago. Switches from fences to hurdles with a visor tried for the first time and she has stamina for this far to prove.

Has never stood much racing and was a creditable sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Cork (2m, soft, 40/1) in November. Significantly up in trip for handicap hurdle debut and mark demands more.

Versatile performer who rattled off a hat-trick in late-2024 and added to tally over hurdles at Downpatrick in July. Tenth of 13 at Fairyhouse in November and off since, with usual headgear omitted.

7/2
Beat a next-time-out winner when doubling career tally in 3m handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse in April 2025. Several solid efforts in defeat since, sticking to task when third of 11 at Navan in February. One to consider.

Emphatically opened her account in testing conditions at Limerick (21f) but was presumably still feeling the effects of that performance when pulled up at Fairyhouse later in February. Harder to find an excuse for Kilbeggan run and she's now upped markedly in distance.

Blinkers removed and career best when winning 11-runner C&D handicap in July. Off the track since but has gone well fresh previously.

First run since leaving Adrian Murray when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (25f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Blinkers on and needs to leave that effort well behind.

C&D winner back in 2023 and having fallen in the weights, he's very competitive again with a trio of in-frame efforts, most recently with cheekpieces fitted at Clonmel last month. Could be ready to snap losing sequence.

Much more like it in handicaps during the autumn, suffering a pair of narrow reversals over 3m. Off 6 months but that no concern given yard she represents and she's one to take seriously.

Added to chase tally at Ayr in February but pulled up at Down Royal (3¼m, good to soft) 30 days ago and it's been a while since he's offered much over hurdles.

Forecasts

Ballyglass Beauty (7/2), The Miracle Man (7/2), Mr Dibbs (8/1), Gerrys Wish (8/1), Jumping Susie (17/2), Le Grand Vert (10/1), Earl Neigh (10/1), Evans Secret (11/1), Jeriko De Baune (12/1), Barrowline (14/1), Survivors Sister (25/1), Portarlington (33/1)

Verdict

BALLYGLASS BEAUTY is a veteran now but unlike most of these, arrives in good order so this previous C&D winner may well be able to end his losing run. In contrast, Gerrys Wish isn't yet exposed and is sure to be well prepared for this, with The Miracle Man also of some interest.
