Its Bilbo (G)
Got back on the up returned to hurdling after a stint chasing with a gutsy success in 2m listed handicap at Limerick in late December. Hiked up 12 lb so needs to take another step forward.

Nurse Susan (M)
Low-mileage mare firmly back in the groove this season, supplementing her handicap success here in listed event at Sandown. Not at her best in the National Spirit at Fontwell last time but caught the eye in this last year and no surprise t…

Air Of Entitlement (M)
Impressive winner of Dawn Run here in 2025. Very lightly raced since and she failed to build on an encouraging reappearance second at Fairyhouse when held in handicap at Leopardstown just after Christmas. Probably worth another chance back…

Patrick M O'Brien | H De Bromhead | 7 | 74.4 kg |

Sa Fureur (G)
Has acquitted himself well over hurdles this term without winning, posting a good fourth in handicap at Navan in January. Also ran well back chasing when second of 4 in Red Mills Chase at Gowran (2m3f) last month. Fourth when backed for th…

Farfromnowhere (M)
[T1]
Landed conditions hurdle at Listowel in September and arrives in good nick over fences, fourth of 7 in Grade 2 at Limerick when last seen out just after Christmas. Tongue tie goes on now.

Conor Stone-Walsh | P Nolan | 8 | 73.9 kg |

Karl Des Tourelles (G)
Winless since his hurdling debut at Gowran in February 2024 though he was a good seventh in the Pertemps here last year. Sent chasing this term and recorded his best effort when fourth in Naas handicap in January. Can go very well off a ha…

| 18th | 7 | — |
Zillow (G)
[T]
Progressive when completing a cross-code hat-trick last autumn in 2m listed handicap at Fairyhouse. Shaped like a non-stayer over 2½m at Leopardstown in December and fell early there last month. Has his stamina to prove here.

Sean Cleary-Farrell | W P Mullins | 6 | 73.9 kg |

| 4th | 8 | — |
Kel Histoire (G)
French bumper scorer who landed Cork maiden on his debut for this yard in 2024. Has been brought along steadily this term, best effort when a staying-on fifth of 7 in Grade 3 at Gowran (2m) 27 days ago. Likely plenty more to come now stepp…

| 12th | 9 | — |
Fiercely Proud (G)
Ended last term under a cloud but bounced back to form in some style when bagging 2m3f Ascot handicap last month, seeming well suited by the step up in trip. Shouldn't be underestimated.

Callum Pritchard | B Pauling | 7 | 73.5 kg |

East India Express (G)
FAV
A three-time winner in 2024/25, his third victory coming over C&D. Subdued start to the present campaign until posting an excellent second of 12 in 2½m handicap at Windsor on New Year's Day. Up 4 lb but needs considering for his in-form ya…

Da Capo Glory (G)
[P]
Useful winning hurdler in 2024. Lightly raced since and sent chasing this season, coming in a good third of 8 in 2m3f maiden at Gowran last month. Others appeal more in this environment.
|
Cian Quirke | Padraig Butler | 9 | 73.5 kg |

| 19th | 12 | — |
Intellotto (G)
A useful winning hurdler/chaser at his best for Joseph O'Brien. Faced a stiff task for his new yard in the Kingwell Hurdle at Wincanton 27 days ago. Hard to warm to from this mark.

Robbie David | Daisy Hitchins | 6 | 72.6 kg |

| 5th | 13 | — |
Act Of Authority (G)
[P1]
Runner-up in this 12 months ago and in good nick without winning this term until only eighth in 2m3f Ascot handicap last month. Merits consideration back here with cheekpieces added.
|
Lewis Saunders | O Murphy | 8 | 72.6 kg |

| 20th | 14 | — |
Wendrock (G)
Scored at Leopardstown (2m) in December 2024 but he saw his run of good form come to an end when pulled up in 3m handicap at Leopardstown last month. Ran well in the Fred Winter last season.
|
Carl Millar | G Elliott | 5 | 72.1 kg |

| 14th | 15 | — |
Open Secret (G)
[T]
A fair Flat winner for Charlie Johnston and largely progressive over hurdles, scoring at Naas in December. Good efforts in graded company over C&D and at Thurles (2m5f) since but even more needed now.
|
James Smith | G Elliott | 5 | 71.7 kg |
17
16/1
|
| 15th | 16 | — |
Stede Bonnet (G)
Dual bumper winner who bagged a pair of 2m novice hurdles at Tramore and Ayr in January. Posted a good third of 4 in Punchestown listed hurdle last month. No forlorn hope now stepping up in trip for his first go in handicaps.
|
Josh Williamson | G Elliott | 5 | 71.7 kg |

| 3rd | 17 | — |
Jump Allen (G)
[T]
Useful bumper winner who progressed well once sent handicapping last season, going 2-3 at Sandown last April. Off since but hails from top yard and must be respected.
|
Anna McGuinness | W P Mullins | 7 | 71.7 kg |

8/1
|
| 9th | 18 | — |
Andashan (G)
Advanced his form when resuming winning ways in 2½m handicap hurdle at Newbury just after Christmas. Up 6 lb but he remains unexposed at this trip and could make his presence felt with relatively few miles still on the clock.
|
Dylan Johnston | C Gordon | 6 | 71.7 kg |

20/1

| 11th | 19 | — |
Ballykinlar (G)
[T]
Completed a hat-trick in handicap at Sligo in August and improved again when second in 2m5f listed event at Limerick when last seen out in October on his final run for Donncha Duggan. More still is required starting out for a new yard here…

Shane Fenelon | M Bowen | 7 | 71.2 kg |

Saint Le Fort (G)
Took a big step forward when opening account for the season in 3m handicap hurdle at Leopardstown last month. Drops back in trip now from a much higher mark so this demands another personal best.
|
Niall Moore | P Fenton | 6 | 71.2 kg |
34
33/1
|
| 10th | 21 | — |
Roc Dino (G)
Placed twice over hurdles in France (for Gabriel Leenders) and has shaped with plenty of promise after 10 months off when second in a pair of big-field 2m maidens at Fairyhouse and Thurles in January. Looks capable of a fair bit better now…

John Shinnick | W P Mullins | 5 | 70.8 kg |

Charlus (G)
[HT1]
Fairly useful Flat/hurdles winner for Willie Mullins. Raced freely before being pulled up on his yard debut in 2m5f Kempton handicap last month. Needs to get back on track in first-time tongue tie.
|
Harry Atkins | D Skelton | 5 | 70.3 kg |

| 2nd | 23 | — |
Hot Fuss (G)
[V]
Useful on Flat and has shown similar form over hurdles, gaining a deserved success in 2m handicap at Windsor in January. Pulled up in Morebattle at Kelso since but up in trip now and he's the sort to bounce back.
|
Joe Anderson | Tom Dascombe | 5 | 70.3 kg |

25/1

| 7th | 24 | — |
Sainte Lucie (M)
Hasn't kicked on from a promising stable debut victory as a juvenile and has been well held in 2m handicaps at Leopardstown on her last two runs.

Charlie O'Dwyer | W P Mullins | 5 | 69.9 kg |
