Glen Echo³⁸

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Ben Harvey| T: G P Cromwell

50/1

Fair form when placed in 3 Flat handicaps over middle distances in the summer, though turned in a rare poor effort when last seen at Thurles last month. Worth betting check on hurdles bow.

Form:

Green Soul²⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: J J Slevin| T: J P O'Brien

11/2

Fairly useful 7f winner on Flat as a 2-y-o. Some encouragement when 13¼ lengths fourth of 10 to Atomic City in juvenile hurdle at Cork on debut in this sphere but below that level at Galway 3 weeks ago. Worth another chance.

Form: 45

Huff'n'puff⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Jordan Gainford| T: H De Bromhead

7/2

Fairly useful sort on the level improved when getting off the mark at the fourth time of asking in a Roscommon maiden in May. Ran to a similar level in 2 subsequent handicap outings and he makes hurdling debut with yard in good form.

Form:

Matada¹⁷⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Kieren Buckley| T: G P Cromwell

66/1

Down the field in a trio of maidens on the Flat.

Form:

Mergus Serrator⁵⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Conor Stone-Walsh| T: G P Cromwell

9/1

Fairly useful form in Flat maidens in the spring but didn't really go on as expected in that sphere, only sixth of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Listowel (14.2f, good to soft) 54 days ago.

Form:

Nephin Mountain²⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Sean Flanagan| T: M Mulvany| C

22/1

Modest Flat sort took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 13 in handicap (10/1) at Gowran (7f, soft) 27 days ago, faring best of those held up in a race where very few got involved from behind. Should have plenty to find here, though.

Form:

Norman Prince^t1²²²

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott

5/6

Out of a half-sister to Champion Hurdler Epatante and he shaped really well when a fast-finishing second of 12 in bumper at Lignieres (1½m, good to soft) for Mathieu Pitart back in April. Makes serious appeal having been recruited by top connections.

Form: 2-

Nustty³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Keith Donoghue| T: G P Cromwell

6/1

Placed in a middle-distance bumper for Alain Couetil and very much looked one for later on when eighth of 11 in maiden at Roscommon (10.4f, soft) on yard debut 34 days ago. Makes hurdles bow.

Form:

Sunrush^t1¹⁶

Age: 3| Weight: 11-0| J: Philip Donovan| T: A Slattery| C

11/2

Improved again when off the mark over 1¾m at Navan in August and returned to form when second of 9 in handicap at Dundalk (1½m) 16 days ago, denied only on the nod. Has amongst the best Flat form on offer so is respected with tongue strap added for hurdles bow.

Form:

Arizona Star¹⁷

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: Simon Torrens| T: M Mulvany

66/1

Back to form when fourth at Punchestown last time but she's not bettered poor form on the Flat.

Form:

Courtlough Gula³⁴

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: James Smith⁽³⁾| T: P Cluskey

80/1

Of little account on the Flat.

Form:

Moon Aura^p¹⁵

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

80/1

Fair maiden on the Flat (stays 7f) for Jessica Harrington but no promise in 2 starts over hurdles for this yard.

Form: P7

Rose Sienna²⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: Josh Williamson⁽³⁾| T: P Magee

80/1

Little sign of ability in 3 Flat starts for 3 different yards.

Form:

Star Of Tara^t¹²

Age: 3| Weight: 10-7| J: Phillip Enright| T: Jamie Flynn

80/1

Well beaten in 5 runs on the Flat/recent hurdles debut at Fairyhouse.

Form: 9

Forecasts

Green Soul (9/4), Norman Prince (5/2), Nustty (4/1), Huff'n'puff (5/1), Mergus Serrator (6/1), Sunrush (7/1), Glen Echo (25/1), Nephin Mountain (25/1), Matada (50/1), Fay Og (50/1), Courtlough Gula (66/1), Rose Sienna (66/1), Moon Aura (66/1), Arizona Star (150/1), Star Of Tara (150/1)

NORMAN PRINCE caught the eye with his finishing effort when runner-up in a French bumper and can make a winning start over hurdles having since joined the Gigginstown/Elliott team. Fellow hurdling newcomers Huff'n'puff and Sunrush are also much respected on the strength of their Flat form.
