Decisive winner at Ballinrobe for Noel Kelly last summer. Lightly raced since and has offered very little on both starts for current connections.
|
Maiden hurdler who has shaped with more encouragement than for a while on his last 2 starts, finishing 7½ lengths fifth of 13 to Set The Tone over C&D last time. Excellent value conditional now takes over and has to be considered.
|
Maiden pointer/hurdler who has been placed 3 times this season, including when 4¼ lengths second of 9 to Rusty Harkness in extended 3m maiden at Kilbeggan last time.
|
Showed little in points and hasn't yet managed to win under Rules, looking stretched by longer trip on both occasions he's raced beyond 21f.
|
Dominant Sligo winner last summer who posted her best effort since when 8 lengths fifth of 15 to Island McCoo at Kilbeggan on return. Went backwards from that performance last time, however.
|
Hasn't stood much racing of late but did at least catch the eye with his move into contention at Clonmel in April. Eighth in a seriously bunched finish at Wexford last month.
|
Won novice handicap chase at Newcastle in 2024/25 for Ruth Jefferson. Lightly raced since but bounced back to form in cheekpieces/tongue on debut for new yard when 5 lengths second of 15 to Ladies Well at Killarney last month. Tongue strap now removed.
|
Has looked rejuvenated since undergoing a breathing operation. Confirming the promise of her previous outing when winning C&D handicap 15 days ago by 2¼ lengths from Gerrys Wish. A 6 lb rise doesn't look excessive and another bold bid anticipated.
|
Has no form in maiden hurdles and finished well held on sole completed start in handicaps.
|
Well beaten on completed starts in maiden hurdles and has posed no threat either start in staying handicaps.
|
Vastly improved when gaining first success in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (2½m) 34 days ago but never threatened to follow up off 6 lb higher mark over C&D last time.
|
Won a division of this race in 2024/25. Has plummeted in the weights since but turned in a much more encouraging effort when 3 lengths third of 14 to Phildante in C&D handicap 15 days ago. On a good mark if able to build on that.
|
Sole success came in a Killarney maiden hurdle in 2024 for previous yard. Has shaped as if back in form for the Cian Collins stable in recent months, but likely needs a career best to feature and didn't convince with her stamina for this sort of test last time. RESERVE.

Set The Tone (3/1), Gerrys Wish (7/2), Clone Cross (4/1), Charlie's Dilemma (11/2), Cruisin Susan (13/2), Matter Of Opinion (15/2), Glendine Billy (10/1), Strong Contender (11/1), Clever Court (11/1), Mobile Mamma (16/1), Sineads Fancy (16/1), Joe's Turn (16/1), Tango Theatre (25/1), Mister Vic (28/1), Fair Damsel (28/1), The Cobblers Wife (50/1), Fervida (125/1)
SET THE TONE won over this C&D 15 days ago and is selected to defy a 6 lb rise for an in-form yard. Gerrys Wish is a consistent sort and looks sure to again give his running, whilst Charlie's Dilemma has the services of a good-value conditional and is also respected.
