Getaway Charlie⁸³

Age: 10| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr D Doyle⁽⁷⁾| T: T Doyle| OR: 106

14/1

Twelve runs since last win in 2023, going with little encouragement in handicaps on all 3 starts this season. Best ignored unless market states otherwise.

Form: P2P/P00-

Paul Collins^p⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Phillip Enright| T: B McMahon| OR: 108

10/1

Won a Galway handicap hurdle last season but has largely been out of sorts since, producing a woeful display back over fences at Wexford on return.

Form: 01000-P

Rocky's Howya^t,v²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: Kevin Healy⁽⁷⁾| T: D Queally| OR: 116| D

15/8

Trailblazer who has been resurgent equipped with headgear, landing 4 wins in his last 6 starts (over hurdles and fences), including 3 times at this level, the latest coming in a Clonmel hurdle in May. Well held back in a handicap last time but must be highly respected back in this company.

Form: 111P-10

Tullyveery Lad^b⁴²

Age: 10| Weight: 11-0| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: R P Cody| OR: 109| D

3/1

Won a Tramore handicap chase last season but has been disappointing since returning from a 6-month absence in April. Blinkers back on now tackling a claiming hurdle.

Form: 2138-50

Howdoyalikeherhome^b,t1⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 10-12| J: Danny Gilligan| T: G Elliott| OR: 117

10/3

Point runner-up and a fairly useful hurdler but was out of sorts last summer and has made an underwhelming start over fences this season. Needs to bounce back but sets the standard on last season's form and favoured by the conditions of this race.

Form: 82PP-48

Bocelli's Voice^b,t²⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 10-8| J: Alix Balfe⁽⁷⁾| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 86

9/1

Lost form over hurdles and fences, including a poor effort in this grade last time. Hard to fancy.

Form: 70P8-97

Garnetot^b,t²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-8| J: Paddy Cleary⁽⁷⁾| T: G Elliott| OR: 100

40/1

Maiden who failed to progress last season and hasn't cut any ice in handicaps since returning from a 7-month break. Would be meeting several of these on much better terms in a handicap.

Form: 562F-09

Live My Dream^p1⁷³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-6| J: Josh Williamson⁽⁵⁾| T: C Collins| OR: 87

14/1

Little impact in maiden/handicap hurdles for David Kenneth Budds and has plenty to find with some of these now tackling a claimer for new yard in first-time cheekpieces.

Forecasts

Rocky's Howya (15/8), Tullyveery Lad (3/1), Howdoyalikeherhome (10/3), Bocelli's Voice (9/1), Paul Collins (10/1), Getaway Charlie (14/1), Live My Dream (14/1), Garnetot (40/1)

HOWDOYOULIKEHERHOME would be giving weight away to all 7 rivals if meeting them in a handicap, so must be seriously considered now tackling a claimer back over hurdles. Rocky's Howya is a prolific winner at this level and is feared most of the remainder, whilst Tullyveery Lad is also capable of being involved if first-time blinkers can spark a revival.
