Typical Thomas²⁴⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: J Fahey| OR: 116

25/1

Didn't see out his races in a couple of starts over fences last year and has been off since finishing down the field in a conditions event on the Flat in September.

Bynx²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-10| J: Sean Flanagan| T: M Hassett| OR: 114| C| D

15/2

Winner on handicap chase debut at Wexford last summer prior to landing a third course hurdles win in October. Should be cherry ripe following a spin in a listed event at Killarney latest and makes plenty of appeal returning to fences at this track.

Form: 7/3161-6

Stuntman Steve^p1⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-8| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 112| D

9/2

Hasn't matched his fairly useful winning hurdles form in 5 starts over fences, though looks well worth a go in cheekpieces following a rather laboured effort when fifth of 9 in a novice chase at Ayr last time.

Be Fierce^t⁹⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-5| J: Shane O'Callaghan⁽⁵⁾| T: T M Walsh| OR: 109| CD

10/1

Opened his chase account over C&D last year prior to capitalising on his lower hurdles mark on return at Punchestown in January. Not in the same form at Naas the following month but he has a good record fresh and is fancied to resume winning ways with stable's runners mostly in good form of late.

Form: 1F4910/

Party President^h¹⁴⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Danny Mullins| T: A D Leahy| OR: 106| D

6/1

Maiden pointer who landed a fair handicap hurdle double last spring but was below form on final start for Anthony Mullins in January this year. Cannot be discounted on the best of his form, though, and the market should guide now sent chasing by new yard.

Form: 128059/

Femme Magnifique⁹⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 11-1| J: Danny Gilligan| T: D H Kelly| OR: 105| D

7/1

Fairly useful at her best, she ran better than on her previous start when third of 5 in first-time cheekpieces at Navan (2½m, heavy) in late-February. Has since left P. Kiely but isn't one to dismiss lightly on first start for her new yard.

Form: 635673/

Lady Doyanne¹⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-0| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: H De Bromhead| OR: 104

10/3

Followed up point success when a well-backed winner on hurdle debut at Wexford last season. Ran creditably when fourth in a Clonmel handicap hurdle last time and this low-mileage 6-y-o may well do better for the switch to fences.

Form: 1104D/4

Presenting Lad^t²²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: Phillip Enright| T: M M McNiff| OR: 104| CD

14/1

Landed the middle leg of a hat-trick over C&D in the summer of 2024. Well below form since but has at least come back down the weights and should come on for his Wexford reappearance.

Form: 8367P/9

Itsalonglongroad^b1²⁶

Age: 12| Weight: 10-6| J: P J O'Hanlon| T: David O'Sullivan| OR: 96| CD

22/1

3-time C&D winner who has finished runner-up in last 2 renewals of this race, though he's offered little in 3 starts for new yard, including over this C&D last month.

Form: 2165P0/

Polly Poppins²³²

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Daniel King| T: Bernard Crowley| OR: 90

6/1

Maiden matched the best of her fair hurdle form when third in a C&D handicap on chase debut (winner franked the form next time out) last October. She's still unexposed over fences and should be firmly in the mix if ready to roll.

Form: 952693/

Kingdom Calling^t⁷¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-0| J: Gary Noonan| T: E McCarthy| OR: 87| D

16/1

Hit-and-miss performer was below form when tenth of 12 in a handicap hurdle at Cork in May. Races from 3 lb out of the handicap on chase debut and it's hard to be confident given his profile.

Forecasts

Lady Doyanne (10/3), Stuntman Steve (9/2), Polly Poppins (6/1), Party President (6/1), Ballybrittas (6/1), Femme Magnifique (7/1), Bynx (15/2), Be Fierce (10/1), Presenting Lad (14/1), Kingdom Calling (16/1), Itsalonglongroad (22/1), Typical Thomas (25/1)

BE FIERCE is clearly well suited by the idiosyncrasies of this track and is taken to record a third course success. Lady Doyanne is in excellent hands and looks interesting on chase debut, while Bynx should go well in her bid for a fourth victory here. Polly Poppins could be a serious danger if returning at her best.
