Irish Stallion Farms EBF Mares Maiden Hurdle

Off time: 15:59 | Winning time: 4m 17.70s

Goodgollymissholly^t1¹⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-7| J: James Smith⁽⁵⁾| T: G Elliott

25/1

Fair winner in bumpers who proved disappointing when well held on hurdles debut stepped up in trip here 18 days ago. This can reveal more with a first-time tongue strap enlisted.

Form: P-2170

Brave Lady⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: John Shinnick| T: Peter Fahey

4/1

Fair form to place 3 times in bumpers and bright start over hurdles when runner-up in a Kilbeggan maiden (2m) in July. Found listed company too much at Galway (16.5f) later that month but she remains with potential now reverting back to calmer waters.

Form: 30-2226

Carleys Lilly²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Alan O'Sullivan⁽⁵⁾| T: J P Ryan| OR: 92

28/1

Blue Bresil filly who is bred to stay well and not without promise in bumpers/over hurdles, albeit no threat from 3 out when fourth in a Sligo maiden (2¼m, good) 23 days ago. Handicaps promise to be more her thing, however.

Form: 49354

Certosa²⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Tom Kelly⁽⁷⁾| T: W J O'Doherty| OR: 99

16/1

Minor promise in bumpers and showed more than previously over hurdles when second in a big-field Killarney maiden (16.5f) 3 weeks ago. Steps back up in trip now but another who will be better off in handicaps.

Form: 640-5F2

Hashtag Doyen²⁸

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Thomas O'Connor⁽⁷⁾| T: M Fahey

50/1

Doyen mare who made limited impact in points but showed more than on sole previous hurdles run when fourth in a Tramore maiden (2m) starting out for present yard 4 weeks ago. Even longer trips/handicaps will likely be more her bag moving forward.

Form: 6/P5P-4

Lunar Majesty^t1⁵⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Ross Berry⁽⁷⁾| T: Colm Murphy| OR: 94

18/1

Matched previous form when fifth of 12 in maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (2¾m, good to firm) in June but not in same form when sixth at Wexford (2½m, good) a month later. The way she shaped then suggests this drop back in trip is unlikely to suit. Tongue strap now applied.

Form: 6636-56

Mia In Milan⁹⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Calum Hogan⁽⁵⁾| T: D E Fitzgerald

100/1

Well beaten in Punchestown bumper and pair of maiden hurdles earlier this season. Best watched returning from 3 months off.

Form: 0-05

Santa Paula³³

Age: 6| Weight: 10-13| J: P J O'Hanlon| T: D A McLoughlin| OR: 99

33/1

Fared much better than previously in spite of the drop in trip when third at Kilbeggan (2m) in July and filled same spot in 7-runner mares' maiden at Downpatrick (2¼m) 33 days ago, one paced from 2 out. Another likely to do better when stepped back up in trip.

Form: 07/F033

Tara Boe^h¹⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 10-13| J: Kevin Sexton| T: A McCann

150/1

No show in 2 bumpers and a maiden hurdle for Charlie Moore in 2024. 300/1, shaped as if needing run after 22 months off/starting out for new yard at Bellewstown 16 days ago. Low-grade handicaps will be more her bag in due course.

Form: P649P/8

The Dotski¹⁹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Mike O'Connor| T: H De Bromhead

9/2

Getaway mare who has shaped with promise both starts to date, paying the price for a big move into contention when fourth at Navan (2m, heavy) in February. Absent since but she resumes with her excellent yard amongst the winners and there's better to come.

Form: 54-

Kilbarry Alexy^t²⁵¹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Danny Power⁽⁷⁾| T: C O'Keeffe

80/1

Placed in an academy hurdle on debut in December but was said to have bled switched to a bumper at Cork the following month. Absent since.

Form: 39-

Mastertown Miss¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Peter Smithers⁽⁵⁾| T: D H Kelly

15/2

Promising sort. Second on her Clonmel juvenile hurdle debut in April. Shaped better than result both starts in bumpers since, off 4 months prior to finishing fourth over 2m here 18 days ago (left with too much to do). Likely has a bigger effort in her locker back over hurdles.

Form: 28-4

Ronnie's Rascal^t¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: Sean Cleary-Farrell⁽⁷⁾| T: W P Mullins| OR: 104

6/5

Promising third in academy hurdle at Cork on debut last autumn and belatedly built on that with a run behind her equipped with a first-time tongue strap when second over 2¾m at this course 18 days ago. Had run of the race then but possibilities with a repeat back at this shorter trip.

Form: 36-42

Rosarian²⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: R Deegan| T: J Halley| OR: 97| BF

12/1

After 7 months off, attracted support and left her debut form well behind when second of 15 in maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f) 20 days ago in July. Subsequent Tramore fourth has to go down as underwhelming but too soon to be writing her off.

Form: 7-24

Lexenna³²

Age: 5| Weight: 10-13| J: Philip Donovan| T: D Collins

Well held in mares bumpers and 2m maiden hurdle here in recent months. RESERVE.

Forecasts

Ronnie's Rascal (6/5), Brave Lady (4/1), The Dotski (9/2), Mastertown Miss (15/2), Maximillian Lady (10/1), Rosarian (12/1), Certosa (16/1), Lunar Majesty (18/1), Goodgollymissholly (25/1), Carleys Lilly (28/1), Santa Paula (33/1), Katie Can't Count (33/1), Hashtag Doyen (50/1), Kilbarry Alexy (80/1), Mia In Milan (100/1), Sea Limit (100/1), Tara Boe (150/1), Lexenna (250/1)

THE DOTSKI shaped with definite promise in a pair of maiden hurdles during the second half of last season, paying for a big move into contention when fourth in a Navan maiden in February. Returning to action with her yard amongst the winners and open to further improvement, she shades preference over Willie Mullins' recent course runner-up Ronnie's Rascal and Brave Lady.
