9/2

Has taken a step forward with runner-up efforts in maiden hurdles at Downpatrick the last twice, clear of the rest in 9-runner contest (2¼m) on latest outing. Enters calculations with return to further promising to suit.

Form: 8R5-722

Fortis Et Liber³²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Jordan Gainford| T: C Bowe

10/1

Runner up once from 5 starts in point and left behind his first 2 efforts over hurdles when second of 9 in maiden at Downpatrick (2¾m) in August, benefiting from the extra distance. Could be in the mix.

Form: 2R2

Gillane¹⁶⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell

3/1

Showed fair form in pair of maiden hurdles for previous yard last year. Didn't need to improve when keeping on well for success in bumper at Bellewstown (17f) in April, but he could yet do better making first start over hurdles for current trainer.

Form: 3/52321-

Hurricane Leaf¹¹¹

16/1

Making third start in bumpers, showed much improved form upped in trip when third of 8 at Downpatrick (19f) in June, though hung left throughout. Has since left James Andrew Fahey and joined a much-respected yard ahead of hurdling debut.

Form: 7-03

Form: 2

Mossy Way^p¹⁸⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Kieren Buckley| T: E Buckley

1/1

Fairly useful bumper winner (trained by P. M. J. Doyle for his victory) who showed the benefit of his hurdling debut effort when third of 25 in maiden at Fairyhouse (2m) in April. Major player with further improvement to come back up in trip.

Form: 4/14743-

Muckanagh Lough¹⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Simon Torrens| T: P T Foley

12/1

Left his bumper debut behind when runner-up next 2 outings, leaving Brian M. McMahon after his second start. Shaped better than the result when mid-field in a stronger bumper at Punchestown (19f) in May. Could just be better for this experience on hurdles bow.

Form: P5/5220-

Spill A Drop^t¹³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: R K Watson

100/1

Point winner (dead-heated) who showed ability on Rules debut when sixth of 12 in maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (2¾m) in July. However, unseated at the first at Navan 13 days ago.

Form: F1-4P6U

The Bossman About²⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Paddy Cleary⁽⁷⁾| T: N Slevin

200/1

Very much in need of the experience on debut when last of 11 in maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan in September, making novicey mistakes. Likely to need more time.

Form: 0

Barrow Side Boy¹⁵³

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Richard Condon⁽⁵⁾| T: P A Fahy

100/1

Never better than mid-field on debut when eighth of 16 in bumper at Punchestown in May. Could be one for further down the line as he starts off over hurdles.

Form: 8-

The Farmers Bar¹⁴⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 11-10| J: Eoin Walsh| T: C Collins| BF

66/1

Third on his only start in points and was well backed for his bumper debut, but ran no sort of race at Wexford in May. Has since left Ian John McCarthy and interesting to see if the support returns as he goes hurdling.

Form: 3-7

Kilbree Nouvella¹⁵⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Mike O'Connor| T: James Hannon

150/1

Flemensfirth mare. Dam unraced half-sister to top-class hurdler (stayed 21f) The New One and fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3¼m) The Newest One. Pulled up all 3 starts in points this spring.

Form: PPP-

Queen Of The Gales³⁵

Age: 6| Weight: 11-5| J: Mr J P Collins⁽⁷⁾| T: C Motherway

100/1

Dual point winner who shaped better than the result sent hurdling when ninth of 12 in maiden at Wexford (3m) 5 weeks ago, jumping fluently but not lasting home having kicked on early final circuit. This run should reveal more dropped in trip.

Form: P33-129

Senorita Diana¹⁴⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-3| J: J J Slevin| T: P A Fahy

150/1

Little promise in 2 bumpers in the spring, again finishing well held when ninth of 11 at Cork in May. Needs to leave those efforts behind over hurdles.

Form: 0-9

Forecasts

Mossy Way (1/1), Gillane (3/1), Euro Agent (9/2), Fortis Et Liber (10/1), Techno Kid (10/1), Muckanagh Lough (12/1), Churchroad Harry (12/1), Grey Balls Of Fire (12/1), Hurricane Leaf (16/1), Master Locksley (25/1), The Farmers Bar (66/1), Beeverstown Boy (80/1), Queen Of The Gales (100/1), Spill A Drop (100/1), Barrow Side Boy (100/1), Getaway Tobin (100/1), Go Mike Go (150/1), Senorita Diana (150/1), Kilbree Nouvella (150/1), The Bossman About (200/1)

MOSSY WAY ran to a fair level in 2 maiden hurdles earlier in the year, jumping better on his second outing when third at Fairyhouse in April, and he can build on those efforts to open his hurdles account. Gillane arrives on the back of a bumper win and is next on the list, ahead of Euro Agent.
