Barnpark (G)
FAV
[T1]
Walk In The Park gelding. Half-brother to modest hurdler Cindysox, stays 21f. Successful sole outing in points (Nov 2025) and warrants respect on Rules debut.

| 7th | 2 | — |
Bravewave (G)
€16,000 3-y-o, Silverwave gelding. Dam, maiden over hurdles/fences in France, sister to French maiden hurdler Seventy Heart. Needs a look in the betting.

Alan O'Sullivan | E Mullins | 5 | 76.2 kg |

| 10th | 3 | — |
Drombane (G)
Wings of Eagles gelding. Dam (h141) 2m-19f hurdle winner (stayed 3m), also winner up to 2¼m on Flat. Held back by inexperience when fifth of 6 in bumper at Punchestown (16.9f, soft) on NH debut 74 days ago. Should progress.

| 8th | 4 | — |
Greenhills Of Cork (G)
Attracted support and showed plenty to work on when fourth of 18 in bumper at Listowel (16f, good to soft) on debut in September. That form has worked out well and he's open to improvement.
|
Mr T A Halford | J P O'Brien | 5 | 76.2 kg |

10/3
|
| 1st | 5 | — |
Leonard Vallis (G)
Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Good second on Gowran hurdle debut but was too free switched to a bumper when last of 10 at Navan (16.2f, heavy) 80 days ago.
|
Mr D Allen | T O'Brien | 5 | 76.2 kg |

10/1

Long Goodbye (G)
Ran to a similar level as on debut when beaten only by a useful prospect in 15-runner bumper (25/1) at Down Royal (17.2f, soft) 41 days ago.

Mr B Doyle Murphy | Liz Doyle | 5 | 76.2 kg |

Lucky Vick (G)
[H1]
€3,000 3-y-o, Lucky Speed gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Mr Puck and modest chaser Suzy's Music, stays 3¼m. Wears hood.

Mr L M Kelleher | G Kelleher | 5 | 76.2 kg |

Thinkitdontjinxit (G)
£185,000 purchase after easily landed sole outing in points. Of obvious interest on Rules debut.

Tinto De Verano (G)

Mr J W Hendrick | Yvonne Latta | 6 | 76.2 kg |

No Time To Think (M)
Doyen mare. Sister to fairly useful hurdler Florida Dreams, stays 2½m, and closely related to poor 2½m hurdle winner Tara Line. Last of 6 finishers on first of 2 starts in points in November 2025, pulled up last time.
