Chautuaqua (M)
Bumper winner returns to a maiden having failed to build on a more promising effort when pulled up in handicap at Clonmel last February. Has been competitive following a break previously, though

Jenny's Bar (M)
Golden Lariat mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler Cornakill Rose. Dam unraced. Newcomer doesn't look an obvious type on paper.

Likealightswitch (M)

Knocking on the door, trading at 1.01 in-running when runner-up at Fairyhouse last month. Should go one better.

Meghan Mala (M)
Mahler mare. Dam (c104/h110), 2½m hurdle winner, half-sister to smart hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) Sporting John. Pedigree offers some hope but likely to need more time.

Shesakindofmagic (M)
[T1]
Fair bumper winner who went backwards from an encouraging hurdle debut/reappearance when fading to finish midfield (behind Likealightswitch) at Fairyhouse. Reasonable to think she can finish closer if tongue strap has desired effect.

The Fog Horn (M)
Fair handicapper at best on Flat (stays 7f) but no form since 2023 and hard to get excited now sent hurdling.

Windy Grey (M)
Yeats mare. Half-sister to a point winner. Dam unraced sister to useful hurdler/high-class chaser (2½m-2¾m winner) Great Endeavour and useful hurdler/smart chaser (stays 3¼m) Daklondike. Enough in her pedigree to warrant a market check, bu…

Magicsoakinmyspine (F)
Elusive Pimpernel filly. Dam (b72), lightly raced in bumpers, half-sister to useful 23f chase winner Soldier In Milan. Yard an unlikely source of debut winners.
