Off time: 15:31 | Winning time: 5m 5.00s

Granville Street^b1²⁶

Age: 8| Weight: 12-4| J: Mr M J Love⁽⁴⁾| T: Ciaran Murphy| OR: 110

11/2

Fairly useful winning hurdler who shaped with some encouragement when third on chasing debut at Kilbeggan (3¼m) in August but was let down by jumping next time. Placed on the Flat last 2 starts, latest in big-field Curragh handicap. First-time blinkers go on now back hurdling.

Form: 670-43U

Getaway Charlie^p²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 12-1| J: Ms J I Stokes⁽²⁾| T: T Doyle| OR: 107| D

10/1

Latest win at Roscommon in September. Well-held seventh of 18 in handicap at Punchestown (23f, good to soft, 12/1) 4 weeks ago.

Form: 0-40157

Tuckmill^p²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr R M McParland⁽²⁾| T: Peter Fahey| OR: 104| D

5/1

Confirmed promise of previous run when winning 17-runner handicap hurdle (12/1) at Punchestown (2½m, good to soft) by 8 lengths from Trixaboutmaisie 28 days ago. Has won off this mark before so is one to consider.

Form: 70-P731

Boola Times^t¹⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: Mr T J Forbes⁽⁴⁾| T: D Budds| OR: 96| D

8/1

Inconsistent sort overall but he got off the mark when landing Wexford handicap over this trip in August and backed it up with a good third at Cork last month. Ran poorly in heavy conditions last time but can get back on the up here.

Form: P-3513P

Cahirdown Boy^t²⁴

Age: 11| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr J Dunne| T: E McNamara| OR: 94

12/1

Veteran who hasn't won for over 2 years, though probably would have done if not losing his rider at the last in handicap chase at Cork in January. Wasn't disgraced when fifth of 18 at Limerick back over hurdles 24 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form.

Form: U5-FU35

Futurum Regem^b³¹⁶

Age: 10| Weight: 11-2| J: Mr Finn Tegetmeier⁽²⁾| T: H P Finegan| OR: 94| D

80/1

One-time fairly useful hurdler but it's some time since he saw a race out thoroughly. Well out of his depth when last seen in December Hurdle at Leopardstown 10 months ago. Easy to look elsewhere.

The Bosses Order^p¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 11-1| J: Mr F P Murphy⁽⁴⁾| T: A D Leahy| OR: 94

33/1

Offered little in points but showed more than previously in first-time cheekpieces when sixth of 16 in maiden hurdle at Limerick in October. Market best guide now handicapping.

Form: 56P-569

Annie's Belle^h,t¹⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 10-12| J: Mr D O'Sullivan⁽²⁾| T: C O'Connell| OR: 90

12/1

Ran well when third of 14 in handicap at Kilbeggan in May but possibly failed to stay trying 3m there last time. Can bounce back over this trip.

Form: 95F-439

West Of Carrig²³⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 10-11| J: Mr A J Browne⁽²⁾| T: Don Browne| OR: 89| C

10/3

Got off the mark in 21f handicap chase at Fairyhouse in January. Failed to get home 3m at Navan when last seen in March. Back hurdling from a much lower mark and one to monitor in the betting after 7 months off.

Form: 32213P-

Annie Button^p¹¹

Age: 6| Weight: 10-8| J: Miss G Benson| T: P Flood| OR: 86

9/2

Resumed progress in first-time cheekpieces when winning 3m handicap at Cork in May. Respectable fifth of 20 in handicap (15/2) at Down Royal (3m, good to soft) 11 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.

Form: 26-1045

Hidalgo Des Mottes^p,t²⁸

Age: 9| Weight: 10-7| J: Ms N M Bradley⁽⁴⁾| T: E Griffin| OR: 84

11/1

Long-standing maiden. Again found only one too good at Punchestown in June but has followed that with some lesser efforts since. Cheekpieces back on. May need a few to falter.

Form: 5-82958

Forecasts

West Of Carrig (10/3), Annie Button (9/2), Tuckmill (5/1), Granville Street (11/2), Boola Times (8/1), Getaway Charlie (10/1), Hidalgo Des Mottes (11/1), Cahirdown Boy (12/1), Annie's Belle (12/1), Jerisk Star (12/1), Calzaghi (20/1), Joya Del Mar (20/1), The Bosses Order (33/1), Futurum Regem (80/1)

TUCKMILL is still well handicapped on old form and can follow up from last time despite a 10 lb rise in the weights. Cahirdown Boy can go well kept to this sphere, while Boola Times can bounce back to form in more favourable conditions.
