Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott

18/1

120,000 gns purchase after finishing runner-up on second of 2 Flat starts in France for Francis-Henri Graffard. 14/1, shaped as if needing run when seventh of 9 in juvenile at Punchestown (2m, good to soft) on hurdle debut 18 days ago. Has been gelded and he's open to progress.

Form: 7

Fay Og³¹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Sam Ewing| T: W R Crawford

80/1

Little form on the Flat and well held on hurdle debut. Outsider.

Form: 7

Kenough¹⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: J J Slevin| T: J P O'Brien

1/1

Fair form in 2 Flat runs for this yard. Promising 5 lengths third of 9 in juvenile at Punchestown (2m, good to soft) on hurdle debut 18 days ago. Leading claims with improvement likely.

Form: 3

Servare¹¹

Age: 3| Weight: 10-12| J: Cian Quirke| T: A Slattery

20/1

Fair Flat winner for this yard. Below par at the Curragh recently but that first outing for 4 months should have sharpened him up for this hurdle debut.

Form:

Cite Florale¹⁰⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 10-11| J: Darragh O'Keeffe| T: H De Bromhead| D

6/4

Fair form when placed in 2 Flat maidens in the spring and made a successful start over hurdles at Killarney (17f, good, 5/6) in July. Will improve.

Form: 1

Moon Aura^p⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Shane Markey⁽⁷⁾| T: C A McBratney

150/1

Fair maiden on the Flat (stays 7f) for Jessica Harrington but pulled up on C&D hurdle debut for new yard.

Form: P

Swift Charm^h,t⁶⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-5| J: Harry Sexton⁽⁷⁾| T: R K Watson

150/1

Modest maiden on the Flat. Well-held fifth on C&D hurdle debut in August. Has changed trainer since.

Form: 5

Forecasts

Kenough (1/1), Cite Florale (6/4), Admiral Will Brown (5/1), Contador (18/1), Servare (20/1), Fay Og (80/1), Moon Aura (150/1), Swift Charm (150/1)

KENOUGH can build on his promising hurdle debut third at Punchestown and prove too strong for penalised Killarney winner Cite Florale. Gordon Elliott's Contador was well behind the selection at Punchestown but should improve and get closer to him this time.
