9/1

Proved a different proposition to previously when winning maiden chase over C&D in May. Likely to have gone close when unseating rider 2 out in handicap there 3 weeks later but disappointed at Galway since.

Form: 44-U1U0

Age: 10| Weight: 11-13| J: Mr S Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: Stephen Carlin| OR: 99| C

12/1

Step back in the right direction off much-reduced mark when second at Kilbeggan 10 days ago and remains potentially well treated if building on that.

Form: P5P-5P2

Kalsman^h²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-11| J: Kieren Buckley| T: L Lennon| OR: 97| C

12/1

Made all over hurdles at Down Royal in April. Below form since but did at least offer something to work on when third in a maiden here on chase bow in June.

Form: 61-9033

Run For The Border²¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Daniel King| T: J P Ryan| OR: 95| D

16/1

Limerick maiden hurdle winner last autumn. Has been holding her form well in handicaps this summer and she's a player if taking to fences at the first attempt.

Form: 57-3243

Full Noise^p²⁷

Age: 10| Weight: 11-8| J: Mr D McGill⁽⁷⁾| T: Gary McGill| OR: 94| CD

5/1

C&D winner who has been given a chance by the handicapper and shaped as if retaining much of his ability on the back of another stable switch after 25 months off when third at Roscommon 4 weeks ago, making most in first-time headgear.

Form: 7P425/3

Wing Back^h⁴⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Phillip Enright| T: S Curling| OR: 93| C

11/2

Landed a gamble in maiden hurdle here a year ago. However, has been well below par since falling at Clonmel in October, including both starts over fences this summer.

Form: 13F0-96

My Cullen^p¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: J J Hanlon| OR: 90

15/2

Still a maiden but returned to form from out of the blue when second at Kilbeggan, not going down without a fight once headed on the run-in having made most. Shaped well for most of the way when fourth at Tramore since.

Form: F90524

Our Zebo^b¹⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-3| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: N C Kelly| OR: 89| C

10/1

Three-time winner over hurdles, including here a year ago. Not as good over fences but much lower mark reflects that and he looked rusty after 11 months off at Kilbeggan 10 days ago.

Form: 02316-7

My Policy^p³⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 10-13| J: Alix Balfe⁽⁷⁾| T: P Rooney| OR: 85

40/1

Runner-up in handicaps in 2024/5 but hasn't shown anything either start since returning from a long absence.

Form: 5P82/PP

Not So Serious^p¹⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: J J Slevin| T: W J Lanigan| OR: 85

25/1

Caused a surprise in first-time headgear when off the mark in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe last month. Again proved easy to back sent chasing at Tramore next time but shaped as if still in good heart prior to unseating at the eleventh.

Form: 0PPP1U

King's Son²⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 10-12| J: Philip Donovan| T: S Neville| OR: 84

10/1

Maiden who didn't find much having shaped as if ahead of his mark for much of the way in first-time headgear at Roscommon 4 weeks ago. Mark has eased again.

Form: 00-3667

The Cobblers Wife¹⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-10| J: Danny Mullins| T: A Mullins| OR: 82

10/3

Low-mileage 8-y-o who proved a different proposition returning from 3 months off for a new yard (formerly with Gordon Michael Doyle) when landing a gamble at Tramore 18 days ago. Sure to go well again from such a low base if taking to this sphere at the first time of asking.

Form: U064-P1

Nobody^h¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-5| J: Josh Williamson⁽³⁾| T: Brendan Walsh| OR: 77

40/1

Limited maiden who ran one of his better races when fifth of 16 at Cork this month but made an inauspicious start over fences at Tramore 2 weeks ago.

Form: 0/008-5U

Baltinglass Hill^b¹¹⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 10-1| J: Simon Torrens| T: P J Rothwell| OR: 73

20/1

Losing run is mounting up and he ran no sort of race at Punchestown when last seen in May.

Form: 37PP7-0

Annarubyrose²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-2| J: Danny Gilligan| T: Ian Donoghue| OR: 88

18/1

Maiden but form has been better this summer and shaped as if still in form at Wexford last time(inadequate test). Makes chase debut. RESERVE.

Form: 89-2457

Forecasts

The Cobblers Wife (10/3), Full Noise (5/1), Wing Back (11/2), My Cullen (15/2), Deadheat (8/1), Driveonwill (9/1), King's Son (10/1), Our Zebo (10/1), Kalsman (12/1), Gorthill (12/1), Run For The Border (16/1), Annarubyrose (18/1), Baltinglass Hill (20/1), Not So Serious (25/1), My Policy (40/1), Nobody (40/1)

THE COBBLERS WIFE showed much-improved form starting out for this yard when landing a gamble over hurdles at Tramore and she remains of interest going chasing for the first time. Fellow chasing newcomer Run For The Border is a potential threat, while King's Son shaped well for a long way at Roscommon.
