Arcadian Emperor (G)
FAV
Promising individual who backed up his hurdle debut effort when second of 16 in novice over a similar trip at this course (heavy) 47 days ago. Holds leading claims.

Mark Walsh | W P Mullins | 5 | 71.7 kg |

1/2
|
| 4th | 2 | — |
Caseys Cloud (G)
Jet Away gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners on Flat, including 1m-16.5f winner Sophar Sogood. Dam unraced. Likely a longer-term prospect.

| 7th | 3 | — |
Dancing Fruits (G)
Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 18 in novice hurdle (11/1) at Gowran (2m, heavy) on NH debut 38 days ago. Up in trip. Improvement required

20/1
|
| 2nd | 4 | — |
Hi Ho Idaho (G)
Ran with promise when third of 10 in novice hurdle over longer trip at Leopardstown (soft) on NH debut 42 days ago. Entitled to build on that and can make his presence felt.

Jordan Gainford | C Collins | 5 | 71.7 kg |

6/1
|
| — | 5 | — |
Hungry Henry (G)
Twice-raced maiden. 150/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 14 in novice hurdle at Cork. Off 8 months. Best watched.

| 8th | 6 | — |
Kome Dans Un Reve (G)
Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, unseated rider in novice hurdle at this course 19 days ago. Up in trip. Hard to recommend.

| — | 7 | — |
Lamikal D'airy (G)
It's Gino gelding. Dam, unraced, sister to French hurdler/chaser Rika d'Airy and French chase winner Emak d'Airy. Successful in points and is worth monitoring in market on NH debut.

Keith Donoghue | G P Cromwell | 5 | 71.7 kg |
8.50
15/2

| 11th | 8 | — |
Little Big John (G)
Once-raced maiden. 80/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse on NH debut 10 days ago. Likely to need more time.

| 6th | 9 | — |
Little John (G)
[T1P1]
Made the frame sole completed start in points but finished well held in bumper at this course on NH debut 12 days ago. Tongue strap/cheekpieces on for hurdles bow but looks a likely outsider.

Michael Kenneally | C Motherway | 5 | 71.7 kg |

Salvador Peps (G)

Solar Generation (G)
[T]
Once-raced maiden. 16/1 and tongue strap on, tenth of 18 in novice hurdle at Gowran (2m, heavy) on NH debut 157 days ago. Up in trip. Likely to improve.

| 3rd | 12 | — |
Speculateur (G)
Wasn't far behind subsequent Champion bumper fifth on debut and has proved consistent over hurdles, latest when creditable third of 21 in novice over this trip at Cork (good to soft, 5/2) 26 days ago. Looks sure to go well again.
|
Jack Kennedy | G Elliott | 5 | 71.7 kg |
3.50
5/2
|
| 9th | 13 | — |
Ballinaboola Hanna (M)
Yet to trouble the judge in a couple of bumper starts/trio of outings over hurdles and will likely been seen in a better light when sent handicapping.
|
Danny Mullins | R Donohoe | 5 | 68.5 kg |
67
66/1
|
| 12th | 14 | — |
Darby Hill (M)
Yeats mare. Closely related to fairly useful hurdler/chaser St Cuthbert's Cave. Dam unraced. Easy winner of second start in points earlier this year and must be respected on Rules debut.
|
R Deegan | P Nolan | 5 | 68.5 kg |
26
25/1
|
| — | 15 | — |
Eagle Doll (M)
Wings of Eagles mare. Half-sister to 4 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Mad Brian and fair chaser Jessie Lightfoot. Dam unraced. Market should prove best guide to claims on debut.
|
Conor Clarke | E McCarthy | 6 | 68.5 kg |
101
100/1

| 5th | 16 | — |
Karlynn (G)
Offered more than on debut when fourth of 16 in novice hurdle (150/1) at this course (2m, heavy) 19 days ago. Should benefit from this longer trip and can make his presence felt.

Eoin Walsh | J M Burke | 4 | 68 kg |

| 13th | 17 | — |
Me Wee Nanny Fran (G)
Once-raced maiden. 20/1, tenth of 16 in novice hurdle at this course (2m, heavy) on NH debut 19 days ago. Tries longer trip now but isn't really bred for this sort of test.

Imtinkenofit (F)
Kew Gardens filly. Dam unraced. Likely to need the experience unless the market speaks in her favour.
