6/4

Opened his account over hurdles in Limerick maiden in March and really should have won when neck second of 4 to Kiltealy Park in minor event at Wexford last time, going with zest but collared final strides after idling in front. Sure to give a good account.

3/1

Confirmed previous hurdling promise when winning 2m maiden at Ballinrobe in May, beating Press The Button by 6½ lengths. Will need to improve if he's to defy a penalty in this company, however.

Form: 357F2-1

100/1

Poor maiden hurdler. Wears first-time blinkers, but very easy to look elsewhere.

Form: 798-080

Suresuresure³⁷

50/1

Offered little in bumpers but caught the eye when 19 lengths seventh of 17 to Gomez Addams in maiden hurdle at Listowel in May. This requires a big step up, however.

Form: 088P-07

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Liam Quinlan| T: J P Ryan

50/1

Tailed off in a bumper on debut but was in process of showing much more when falling 2 out in maiden at Clonmel won by Holy Joe on hurdling bow, looking set to finish in the frame. This requires another significant step forward, though.

Form: 8-F

Lizzie Twigg³⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-1| J: Josh Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: G Elliott| D

11/8

Won bumper at Down Royal in March. Disappointed next time but got firmly back on track when landing a maiden hurdle at Punchestown last month, beating Coolishael by 8½ lengths. Sure to progress and big player.

Form: 15-1

Forecasts

Lizzie Twigg (11/8), Dani Donadoni (6/4), The Store Boy (3/1), Endless Talking (3/1), Whoyougonnacall (50/1), Suresuresure (50/1), Move It On Over (100/1)

LIZZIE TWIGG created a good impression when making a successful hurdling debut last month and, with improvement anticipated, is taken to maintain her unbeaten start in this sphere. Dani Donadoni shaped best when runner-up last time and rates the main danger, with the unexposed Endless Talking also respected in his hat-trick bid.
