Ready For Road (G)
[T]
Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, ninth of 24 in minor event hurdle at this C&D (soft) 66 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut and could still do better.

Eoghan Finegan | G P Cromwell | 5 | 76.2 kg |

Galavanting George (G)
Lightly-raced maiden. 80/1, respectable fourth of 13 in novice hurdle at Thurles (16.1f, soft) 45 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut with more to offer. Possibilities.

Verbal Sparring (G)
[T]
Tongue strap on for 1st time, career best when winning 16-runner handicap hurdle at Down Royal (17.2f, heavy, 28/1) 14 days ago, driven out. Up 7 lb but got to be feared in his current mood.

Carl Millar | D McDonogh | 7 | 73 kg |

The Guinness Boys (G)
50/1, fourteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (19.3f, heavy) 22 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

Trebizond (G)
[T]
12/1, fair fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, heavy) 22 days ago. No forlorn hope off an easing mark.

Our Uncle Jack (G)
FAV
[H]
Back on track when easily making all in 14-runner handicap hurdle (10/1) at Clonmel (16.9f, heavy) 26 days ago. Hiked up 12 lb now so needs to take another step forward.

Michael Kenneally | M P Fitzgerald | 10 | 72.1 kg |

Dairy Force (G)
FAV
[H]
Better than ever to hit frame in pair of 2½m handicaps earlier in the season for Liam O'Brien. Drops back to 2m on first start for Gordon Elliott and this lightly-raced 7-y-o looks an interesting contender off a good mark.
|
Josh Williamson | G Elliott | 7 | 71.7 kg |

Silent Guardian (G)
[H]
Fairly useful maiden on the Flat who has been campaigned with handicaps in mind. Should have more to offer on handicap hurdle bow.

Marelly (G)
[B]
Ended a long losing run (in a change of headgear) in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Gowran (16f, heavy) 12 days ago. Not ruled out despite taking a 7 lb rise.

Non Runner | P J Rothwell | 9 | 70.8 kg |

Kelly's Cosmos (G)
Low-mileage 5-y-o who advanced his form when third of 15 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 7/1) 38 days ago, collared late after errors at final two flights. Weighted to go well nudged up 1 lb.

Conor Clarke | E McCarthy | 5 | 69.9 kg |

Falcon Park (G)
[V]
Visored for 1st time, ninth of 16 in handicap hurdle (80/1) at this course (20f, heavy) 19 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

Harry Sexton | J J Hanlon | 10 | 64.9 kg |

Uptaurintop (G)
[T]
50/1, much improved on his handicap bow when third of 13 at Limerick (19f, heavy) 36 days ago. Needs considering despite being 1 lb "wrong" in the weights.

Kevin A Murphy | E M O'Sullivan | 6 | 63.5 kg |

Walk In The Sea (M)
