Embrace The Day^t⁵³

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 100

4/1

On the up over hurdles and bagged 10-runner handicap at Listowel (23f) in May. Looks the sort to do better still as a chaser so a likely player.

Form: 9884-51

Midnight Moonshine^p¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Ben Harvey| T: William Harvey| OR: 100

16/1

Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner last summer but poor efforts so far this summer, not jumping well on his return to hurdling at Bellewstown earlier in the month.

Form: 43F-090

North Of Nashville^p⁴⁶

Age: 9| Weight: 11-12| J: Ricky Doyle| T: C Bowe| OR: 98| CD

11/1

Hard to catch right but both of her wins have come over this C&D, including in May. Hit the wall in a matter of strides at Punchestown last month but wouldn't discount if over whatever ailed her there.

Form: 8P04-1P

Shantou Show^p,t²⁴

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: N C Kelly| OR: 98

14/1

Winless since 2023 but produced one of his more encouraging recent efforts when third of 8 in handicap chase at Cartmel (25f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Far from certain to back that up, though.

Form: 585P-73

Anodandawink^p³⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Harry Cobden| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 93

3/1

Runner-up on completed start in points and produced his best effort over hurdles when third of 16 in handicap at Kilbeggan (25f) in April. Offered something to work on when second of 6 in novice chase at Downpatrick (3m, good to firm, 5/1) on debut over fences 39 days ago. Makes handicap chase bow.

Form: 0003-92

Oogum Boogum^p⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-12| J: Shane Fitzgerald| T: D Budds| OR: 84| BF

4/1

Gained a deserved breakthrough win in 3m handicap hurdle at Punchestown in May. Placed all 3 starts since, including when sent back over fences from his significantly lower chase mark to finish third of 15 in handicap chase at Killarney (23f, good, 7/2) 5 days ago. Cheekpieces back on.

Form: 3P-1323

Derby Rock^t³⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-10| J: Daniel King| T: James King| OR: 82

9/1

Modest hurdler made an inauspicious start in this sphere back in August and was an early faller back hurdling after 10 months off at Kilbeggan last month. Back chasing having left M. F. Morris.

Form: 5/0576-F

Ardaghs Choice^b¹⁰¹

Age: 11| Weight: 10-5| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: E Sheehy| OR: 77| CD

33/1

Temperamental sort on a lengthy losing run and he was pulled up at Down Royal when last seen in April.

Form: P/U88UP-

Amburana⁵⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 10-4| J: Michael Kenneally⁽⁵⁾| T: Padraig Butler| OR: 76

11/1

Remains winless and only thirteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (2½m) 55 days ago. Chasing debutant.

Form: 6043-70

Fr Gilligansvoyge^b,t¹⁹

Age: 13| Weight: 10-3| J: Sarah Kavanagh⁽⁷⁾| T: J G Carr| OR: 75

14/1

Veteran has found some uncharacteristic consistency of late, in the frame for 3 starts in a row before ending a losing run stretching back over 3 years in 12-runner race at Downpatrick (3m, good) last month. Backed that up with another good third of 13 here (19f, good) 19 days ago.

Form: P4-4213

Barely Made It^p⁵³

Age: 9| Weight: 10-0| J: Mike O'Connor| T: C Bowe| OR: 72

11/1

Placed in a point but yet to offer much under Rules.

Form: 8/3P8-59

Captain Kate^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Patrick M O'Brien⁽⁵⁾| T: E Sheehy| OR: 72

33/1

Without a win over hurdles and didn't build on a more encouraging chasing debut in 2 subsequent starts in that sphere. Offered nothing back over the smaller obstacles after a 7-month break last time.

Form: 0666P-P

Eddies Pride^h,t⁴⁴

Age: 12| Weight: 10-0| J: Gary Noonan| T: N Lee| OR: 72

80/1

Poor strike rate (latest win came in 2024) and well beaten again at Roscommon last month.

Form: 00PP-50

Tennesse Boy^t²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-0| J: Phillip Enright| T: R Tyner| OR: 72

14/1

Runner-up in a Sligo handicap chase in October but well beaten at Thurles later that month. Pulled up in a point towards the end of May and it was a similar story back over hurdles at Limerick 3 weeks ago.

Form: P020-PP

Secrecies Of Stone^b²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Alan O'Sullivan⁽⁵⁾| T: P Nolan| OR: 97
