Fair bumper winner. Showed first form over hurdles when second at Listowel (2m), though probably had a fitness edge over less experienced Tumbling In (1¼ lengths back in third). Reverts to hurdling having been a shade disappointing on Flat debut last time.

5/1
Free-going sort who went close on what was effectively her hurdling debut at Kilbeggan (3m) in late-May. Subsequently left previous bumpers effort well behind when scoring at Sligo. That performance can be marked up and possibility of more to come back over hurdles.

Debut bumper winner at Galway last summer and placed 3 times in listed company subsequently. Fell short of expectations when well-held fifth at Punchestown (2¾m) on hurdling debut. Worth another chance given her profile/connections.

Timeform
Well beaten all 3 hurdle starts and makes no appeal this side of handicaps.

9/2
Showed a good deal more than previously when (33/1) second of 15 in maiden hurdle at Limerick (2½m, soft) in late-May. No match for an above-average prospect that day. Big player if she can produce a similar performance under contrasting conditions.

Unpromising in points and similar story in bumper behind Pets Georgina on Rules debut. Now tried hurdling.

Little solid hurdle form back in 2024. Returns to Rules having finished distant third in a point in late-April.

Built on the promise of her C&D fifth when clear runner-up in a similar event at Tramore in late-May. Going the right way and expected to be firmly in the shake-up. Tongue strap added.

Has shown ability with in-frame finishes at Downpatrick/Limerick in recent months, though we'll probably see the best of her in staying handicaps.

11/4
Bred to be a stayer. Encouraging that she shaped well in bumpers and when third on seasonal/hurdling debut at Listowel (2m) in early-June. Bound to improve and has good claims to get off the mark over a significantly longer trip.

Timeform
Has shown no ability in various events.

Flat-bred filly. No encouragement either bumper start. Now sent hurdling over a longer trip.

Timeform
Order of St George filly. Dam, ran once in bumper, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Early Morning Rain. Unlikely to make an impact in the short term.

Offered little in 2 hurdle starts. Needs this run for a mark.

Forecasts

Tumbling In (11/4), Mysilverriverfeale (3/1), Some Pretender (4/1), Chisel Hill (9/2), Pets Georgina (5/1), Fraher Field (11/2), Torque De Lune (22/1), Sonna Lady (250/1), Keyser Smokesy (300/1), Another Blunder (300/1), Uno Me I Like My T (300/1), Glenmore Graduate (300/1), Daily Devotion (300/1), Jessie Roe (300/1), Greenroad Girl (300/1)

Verdict

The step up in trip may see TUMBLING IN get off the mark on second start over hurdles. Some Pretender is worth another chance given what she showed in bumpers, with Chisel Hill and Mysilverriverfeale respected on the back of improved efforts.
