Jay Pee M (G)
[H]
Dual chase winner who ran creditably in this sphere at Thurles in January and arrives on back of respectable sixth of 10 in handicap chase (11/4) at Leopardstown (2m6f, soft) 16 days ago. Races off much lower mark back hurdling here and me…

John Shinnick | T O'Brien | 7 | 76.2 kg |

9/2
|
| 9th | 2 | — |
No Big Deal (G)
[T]
Winner at Clonmel in October. 9/4, below form tenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel in December. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort.
|
Charlie O'Dwyer | C O'Brien | 6 | 76.2 kg |
21
20/1
|
| 16th | 3 | — |
Hillstar Blues (G)
Showed much improved form to get off the mark on second handicap start at Thurles (2m) in November but not been in same form either start since.
|
Sean O'Keeffe | S Aherne | 5 | 75.7 kg |

| 12th | 4 | — |
Qaasid (G)
[P]
Returned to form when second of 8 in claiming hurdle at Clonmel (2m, heavy, 16/1) 21 days ago but doesn't look particularly well treated back in handicap company here.
|
Danny Mullins | J J Hanlon | 8 | 75.7 kg |

33/1
|
| 2nd | 5 | — |
Gino Bella (M)
[T1]
Point winner who shaped well on first 2 starts for new yard and may have been undone by testing conditions when below form sixth at Clonmel 70 days ago. Tongue strap on first time. Not out of things.
|
Simon Torrens | P T Foley | 6 | 75.3 kg |
13
12/1
|
| 6th | 6 | — |
Space Warrior (G)
Shaped as if amiss when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Punchestown in December. Blinkers worn then discarded here but he may not be the most straightforward.
|
Sean Cleary-Farrell | T Mullins | 5 | 75.3 kg |
51
50/1
|
| — | 7 | — |
Lips Freedom (G)
[T1]
Lightly-raced maiden who is yet to make an impact over timber and looks on a stiff mark at present. Tongue strap on for first time.
|
Cian Quirke | A Kinirons | 6 | 73.9 kg |
26
25/1
|
| 5th | 8 | — |
The Toothpicker (G)
[HT]
Ran well in a big-field handicap here in December and wasn't seen to best effect (met trouble) next time. Needs to bounce back from a poor run at Musselburgh last month, however.
|
Darragh O'Keeffe | D Budds | 9 | 73.5 kg |
23
22/1
|
| 4th | 9 | — |
Cerberus (G)
Last success came back in 2019 and hasn't been seen for 20 months. Best watched on return for new yard here.
|
James Smith | W C O'Brien | 10 | 72.6 kg |

22/1
|
| 10th | 10 | — |
Kingdom Calling (G)
[T]
Not the most consistent and arrives on back of below-par effort at Down Royal 58 days ago. Others more appealing.
|
Thomas O'Connor | E McCarthy | 6 | 72.1 kg |
26
25/1
|
| — | 11 | — |
Lispopple (G)
Back from 11 months off when twelfth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel in December and makes limited appeal here.
|
Niall Moore | P Fenton | 8 | 71.7 kg |
67
66/1
|
| — | 12 | — |
Old Kenmare (G)
Promising sort who found improvement when excellent second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (2m1f) in April. Not seen since, however, and market may prove best guide to claims.
|
Ricky Doyle | Eamon Courtney | 7 | 71.7 kg |
29
28/1
|
| 3rd | 13 | — |
Orlando Spirit (G)
Much improved when second of 17 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (2m, heavy) 28 days ago, running on. 8 lb higher now but may be capable of better yet.
|
Jack Kennedy | Paul Power | 6 | 71.7 kg |
8.50

| 7th | 14 | — |
Lejolicoeur Du Mou (G)
[HT1]
Showed more than previously when sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (2m1f, heavy, 20/1) 58 days ago but may prefer a stiffer test of stamina. Tongue strap on for first time.
|
Danny Gilligan | J P Dempsey | 5 | 69.9 kg |

7/1
|
| 15th | 15 | — |
Koolio Kate (M)
[H]
Posted respectable sixth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (2m, heavy) 21 days ago but is still without a win and others look better treated.
|
Alex Harvey | P T Foley | 7 | 69.4 kg |
51
50/1
|
| 11th | 16 | — |
Falcon Park (G)
[V]
Returned to form from out of the blue when second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (2m, heavy) last month. No banker to repeat that effort here, though.
|
Harry Sexton | J J Hanlon | 10 | 68.9 kg |
41
40/1

| — | 17 | — |
Matilauna (M)
Lightly-raced maiden who may have found longer trip too much when pulled up in novice hurdle at Thurles 9 days ago. Worth monitoring in market on switch to handicapping.
|
Calum Hogan | G Scott | 6 | 68.5 kg |

Poets Oath (G)
FAV
Left previous efforts well behind when very good second of 16 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (2m4f, heavy, 11/1) 29 days ago. Raised 4 lb since but he remains low mileage.
|
Phillip Enright | R Tyner | 5 | 68.5 kg |

| 8th | 19 | — |
Wild Wild Wind (M)
Has hit the frame in all 4 handicap hurdles, latest when good second of 12 at Limerick (2m, heavy) 37 days ago. 3 lb higher now but can make her presence felt again.
|
Hugh Horgan | M A Cahill | 5 | 68.5 kg |

4/1

| 13th | 20 | — |
Sidiriya (M)
[H]
Returned to form when creditable third of 17 in handicap hurdle at Naas (2m, soft) 15 days ago. Remains fairly treated and is not taken lightly.

Tiernan Power Roche | P J Rothwell | 7 | 67.1 kg |

Fernhill Fling (G)
[B]
Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs and proved disappointing when last seen at Clonmel in January.

Dylan Robinson | P J Rothwell | 7 | 64.9 kg |
67
66/1
|
| 18th | 22 | — |
Imbolc (G)
Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs and fell early on in handicap chase at Punchestown when last seen in November. Back hurdling now with plenty to prove.

Conor Clarke | E Sheehy | 8 | 64.4 kg |
67
66/1
|
| 14th | 23 | — |
Monkeyforajuice (G)
Lightly-raced maiden who has finished nearer last than first in all 4 starts thus far. Remains to be seen if switch to handicapping brings about improvement. RESERVE.

The Sugarhill Lady (M)
[T]
Turned in best effort of season when creditable sixth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (2m, heavy) 82 days ago. More needed if she is to break her duck here, however. RESERVE.

Reserve 2 | E McNamara | 6 | 71.2 kg |

| — | 25 | — |
Concert Party (F)
Fairly useful winner on Flat who has looked in need of experience in 3 starts over hurdles. Could be more to come now sent handicapping. RESERVE.

Reserve 3 | D Hogan | 4 | 72.1 kg |
