Age: 8| Weight: 12-0| J: Peter Smithers⁽⁷⁾| T: P J Flynn| OR: 100| C

14/1

Won here in March 2025 on the back of a similar break. Below-par eleventh of 17 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (2m) in February but returns off a handy-looking mark and looks interesting in this company.

9/2

Won at Downpatrick in summer 2024. Off 17 months since a below-par eleventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (2m) for Paul Flynn. Tongue strap goes on for new yard on comeback run.

Boola Times^t⁹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Carl Millar⁽⁵⁾| T: D Budds| OR: 93

11/1

Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Limerick (19f) 98 days ago. Needs a major step forward if he's to gain a first win here.

Form: 0/5037P-

Hatfield Hammer^p²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: Alan O'Sullivan⁽⁵⁾| T: P Nolan| OR: 93| CD

13/2

C&D winner who posted another good effort here when third of 14 to Backinabit in handicap hurdle (17f) 20 days ago. Not out of things.

Form: 56P9-63

Ranting And Raven^p⁵⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: G P Cromwell| OR: 90

22/1

Fair maiden on the Flat but yet to achieve much over hurdles. Cheekpieces are reached for now.

Form: 8060-69

Davitts Quay²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Phillip Enright| T: A Mullins| OR: 85

28/1

Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle here (17f) 20 days ago, doing too much too soon. Still not easy to make a case for.

Form: 070-0

Cinnabar Moth^h²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-10| J: D E Mullins| T: Liz Doyle| OR: 82

20/1

Yet to win but she posted a creditable sixth of 13 in handicap hurdle here (17f) 20 days ago. Hood back on with more needed.

Form: 98-0556

Backinabit^b²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-6| J: Daniel King| T: D Hogan| OR: 78| CD

7/2

Blinkered for first time when readily gaining a breakthrough win for new yard in 14-runner handicap hurdle here (17f) 20 days ago. Up 6 lb but not taken lightly with headgear again sported.

Form: 7/4P0-P1

Mount Hotham²⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 77

12/1

Fairly useful form on Flat in France for Andre Fabre back in 2022. Off 3 years and little show over hurdles subsequently.

Form: 0000-90

Sidiriya⁴⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 77

4/1

Yet to win in this sphere but ran well when second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (17f) 48 days ago, sticking to her task. Possibilities.

Form: 8306-32

I'm For Home⁷⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-3| J: Kevin Healy⁽⁷⁾| T: R P Rath| OR: 75

11/1

Still a maiden and he signed off for Keith Watson with a below-form eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (2¾m) in May. Needs to take a step forward for new yard.

Form: P5F40-8

Esticky End²⁰

Age: 8| Weight: 10-1| J: Dylan Robinson| T: Tom McGuinness| OR: 73

16/1

Ungenuine type who wasn't disgraced with second of 13 in handicap hurdle here (17f) 20 days ago. No banker to back that up, however.

Form: R55-7P2

Forecasts

Backinabit (7/2), Sidiriya (4/1), Rightfolksplease (9/2), Hatfield Hammer (13/2), Boola Times (11/1), I'm For Home (11/1), Mount Hotham (12/1), Duke Otto (14/1), Bella Union (14/1), Esticky End (16/1), Cinnabar Moth (20/1), Ranting And Raven (22/1), Davitts Quay (28/1)

This is wide open so it could be worth siding with DUKE OTTO who gained his last success here after a lay-off and returns from a similar break off a lenient-looking mark. Recent course scorer Backinabit is an obvious danger, while Hatfield Hammer and Sidiriya also need factoring in.
