Broderick's Electric Handicap Hurdle (0-100)

Off time: 18:57 | Winning time: 3m 59.80s

Grey Gardens³⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-13| J: Eoin Staples⁽⁵⁾| T: P Nolan| OR: 98

9/1

Hit the frame 2 of 3 handicap starts, a late mistake probably costing him second when beaten 4¼ lengths in a bunch finish at Wexford last time. That race has produced a couple of next-time-out winners, and there could be a bit more to come from this low-mileage 5-y-o.

Form: 830-374

Home By The Sea¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-13| J: J J Slevin| T: P A Fahy| OR: 98

50/1

Standout effort when 5¾ lengths fourth in a messy Roscommon maiden on penultimate hurdle start. Beaten by more than stiff-looking opening mark at Killarney in July and well behind on Flat debut at Galway later in the month.

Form: 500-40

18/1

Off the mark on reappearance at Downpatrick in March before improving to finish second at Limerick (had subsequent winners behind on both occasions). Has been freshened up following a couple of lesser efforts in May and every chance if back on song.

12/1

Sole success came in this corresponding event in 2024. Now back on his winning mark following a pipe-opener at Limerick (returning from 13 months off) last month. Should make a bold bid if back to his best.

Max Meridius⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: Danny Mullins| T: T Mullins| OR: 92| C

7/2

Free-going sort who stepped up on previous hurdling efforts when justifying support under an enterprising Danny Mullins ride at this course (17f) in July. Ran badly in a better race at Cork last week, though.

Form: 09-0510

Cool Summer^h³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-2| J: Sean Flanagan| T: Miss H McLoughlin| OR: 87

4/1

Wasn't far behind a fair sort in a Roscommon maiden this time last year. Best effort since when bumping into one on return to that track (good) latest, staying on to take second on line despite lugging right. Fancied to go well, especially if forecast strong pace and rain materialises.

Form: 3806-62

Euro Maker⁷⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Eoghan Finegan⁽⁵⁾| T: A Murray| OR: 87

9/1

No match for an improver on handicap bow at Cork (soft) in April prior to a lesser effort at Wexford the following month.

Sayitfirst²⁴⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: Danny Gilligan| T: D Collins| OR: 87| D

22/1

Veteran who beat a couple of fairly useful sorts over fences at Sligo last October. Off since pulling up in a Grade 2 novice at Cork in December. Returns on appreciably lower hurdles mark but record fresh hardly inspires confidence.

Victoria Kesia¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Gary Noonan| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 87

50/1

Fair Flat winner. Best effort in this sphere when 10½ lengths third in a similar event at Downpatrick in mid-June. Seemingly no excuses when down the field at Wexford last time, though.

Form: P-08308

The Toothpicker^t¹⁰⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 11-1| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: D Budds| OR: 86

9/1

Long-standing maiden. Seemingly hasn't been the easiest to train but wasn't beaten all that far in a couple of handicaps on soft/heavy last season. Capable fresh and handicapper has given him a chance.

All In Peder^p³⁴

Has little recent form in either sphere.

Spread The Faith^t⁸¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-10| J: Phillip Enright| T: O McKiernan| OR: 81

18/1

Stopped the slide when 7¼ lengths fourth of 14 on chasing debut at Limerick in May. No sure thing to build on that given her patchy record over hurdles.

Form: 90/PPP-4

Lunar Landscape³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Alex Harvey| T: Thomas Coyle| OR: 79

11/2

Fair maiden (runner-up 5 times) on the Flat. Brought along steadily in maiden hurdles but didn't build on his reappearance/handicap debut at Cork latest, a wide trip turning in offering only some mitigation.

Form: 7/00-60

Sidiriya¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-5| J: Tiernan Power Roche| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 76

6/1

Went as close as she has when 2¼ lengths second at Clonmel on penultimate start. Wasn't disgraced on return from 7 weeks off at Wexford latest but elusive win may again evade her.

Form: 306-325

Western Doyen⁶⁴³

Age: 13| Weight: 10-1| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: V T O'Brien| OR: 72

Veteran who has clearly had issues. Plenty to prove returning from a further 21-month absence.

Forecasts

Max Meridius (7/2), Cool Summer (4/1), Lunar Landscape (11/2), Sidiriya (6/1), Euro Maker (9/1), The Toothpicker (9/1), Grey Gardens (9/1), The Vegas Raider (12/1), Moulane West (14/1), Let Him B (18/1), Spread The Faith (18/1), Ikalimix (20/1), Bangor Lady (20/1), Sayitfirst (22/1), Calm Flight Ahead (25/1), Home By The Sea (50/1), Victoria Kesia (50/1), All In Peder (100/1), Western Doyen (125/1)

In an open-looking handicap, COOL SUMMER's recent form just gives her the edge over C&D winner The Vegas Raider and the returning Let Him B.
