Pulled up on chasing debut over 25f at Kilbeggan 12 days ago, jumping poorly and dropping away as if amiss after 3 out. Drops back significantly in trip with plenty to prove.

17/2
Hurdle winner who makes chase debut having finished fourth of 7 in a maiden on the Flat at Killarney 8 days ago. Often races freely and isn't sure to take to the bigger obstacles.

11/2
Yet to win in 7 chase outings and now returns from a 10-month absence starting out for new yard, though they have been back among the winners recently so not without a hope.

20/1
Two-time hurdle winner who also won on the Flat in 2024 but hasn't been seen for 2 years. Makes his chase debut here with the yard going well so worth a look in the betting.

6/4
Has shown weak finishing tendencies of late, including when fourth of 5 in novice chase at Punchestown in June, with a strong gallop exposing the weakness. Faces a simpler task down in trip with first-time cheekpieces reached for.

6/4
Made his chasing debut here 22 days ago and ran a promising second of 6, keeping on well. Open to improvement over fences, perhaps ideally over further, but this looks a live chance for him if getting away with the trip.

Forecasts

Sky Lord (6/4), William Tell (6/4), Jet Setting Jim (11/2), Coul Dreamer (17/2), Silent Selector (16/1), Killeemore Lad (20/1), Where Are You Now (20/1), Centreofattention (50/1)

Verdict

WILLIAM TELL is open to improvement over fences following a promising chasing debut at this course 22 days ago, keeping on well to finish second. Though possibly better suited by further, he rates the one to beat. Sky Lord faces a simpler task than when his weak-finishing tendencies were exposed at Punchestown and first-time cheekpieces could help, while Jet Setting Jim returns from a 10-month absence for a new yard who are back among winners.
