A fair but quirky stayer on the Flat for John McConnell who has offered little both starts over hurdles.
|
Fairly useful bumper winner who made an encouraging start over hurdles when fifth of 8 at Roscommon (15.5f) in July 2023. Failed to repeat that effort at Galway the following month but has shown useful form on the Flat subsequently and remains with potential.
|
€7,500 3-y-o, Getaway gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 29f) Pettifour. Maiden pointer, ran out last time (Apr 26). Wears cheekpieces for Rules debut.
Merely hinted at ability second time up over hurdles, finishing tenth of 17 in a novice (150/1) here just over 3 weeks ago.
|
Showed a bit when sixth of 8 in maiden hurdle at Perth (2½m, good to soft) on debut in April but wouldn't have built on that opening effort had he completed at Downpatrick 2 weeks ago.
|
Long-standing maiden who has solid claims on the pick of his form back over hurdles.
|
Progressed steadily with each run in bumpers, finishing third of 10 at this course (17f) on most recent outing. First-time tongue strap added for hurdling debut and shouldn't be taken lightly.
|
Sent off 200/1 when well beaten on debut here last month.
|
Fair hurdle who again ran creditably when third in 6-runner handicap at Limerick (2m, heavy) in April. One to consider back in maiden company.
|
Quest For Peace gelding. Dam modest maiden hurdler (stayed 2¼m). Makes little appeal on paper.
Yeats gelding. Dam (c107/h86) 3¼m chase winner. Maiden pointer, pulled up last time (May 17).
Unpromising in points and well held completed starts over hurdles.
|
Offered little on his Thurles debut in January.
|
Showed fairly useful form on his debut when third of 14 in a juvenile hurdle at Navan in March 2024 but lightly raced and disappointing since, including on first start for current yard here last month. Hood on for 1st time.
|
Jet Away gelding showed nothing in a Ballinrobe bumper on his debut in September.

Forecasts
This Songisforyou (13/8), In The Trenches (5/2), Market Ready (4/1), It's All Clear (5/1), Holy Joe (7/1), Welcome Back (20/1), Quest With Copper (20/1), Whoyougonnacall (50/1), Care To Differ (50/1), Slowdownbarney (50/1), Riverstown Boy (100/1), China Grill (150/1), Secret Order (150/1), It's Time To Leave (150/1), Thetwocharlies (200/1)
IT'S ALL CLEAR has progressed with each run in bumpers and has a good jumping pedigree, so he's put forward as the answer. This Songisforyou has shown useful form on the Flat since last seen in this sphere and retains potential, with Market Ready another to consider back in maiden company.
