Riyami (G)
[PT]
Awarded race over hurdles at Kilbeggan in June 2024 and added to his tally at Dundalk (2m) in March (reportedly had a wind operation prior). Wasn't disgraced on the figures but never threatened to get involved at Killarney (17f, good) rece…

Hitthehayson (G)

Thrived with 4 wins last season and back to form with placed efforts over hurdles early last month. Had won both his previous starts over fences but found his run of good form coming to a halt back chasing at Kilbeggan most recently and qu…

Dearg Mor (G)
[P1T]
Made no impact starting out in handicaps with a tongue strap added over 19f at Punchestown in January. Remains early days but much more is required with cheekpieces added.

Oogum Boogum (G)
[P]
Finally got the victory he had been threatening for a while in 18-runner event at Punchestown (3m, good to soft) a fortnight ago by 1½ lengths from Ballinaboola Gold, having the run of the race. Isn't an obvious type to follow up.

Jack Inthe Jukebox (G)
[P1T1]
Yet to show any ability, including on handicap debut after 5 months off at Down Royal (3m, good to soft) last month. Hopes pinned on first-time cheekpieces/tongue tie sparking some improvement.

Lecale's Diamond (G)

Sent off a very short price returning from 4 months off in a first-time tongue tie and produced an effort much more in keeping with his chase form when fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (2¾m, good) just under 3 weeks ago. Can …

Lily Milan (M)
Run to a similar level in all 3 starts over hurdles, including when sixth of 14 in maiden at Cork (19f, good to soft) early last month. May have more to offer on handicap debut.

[P]
Got back on track in first-time cheekpieces when winning 3m handicap hurdle at Cork 17 days ago by head from Only For Our Man. Has a good chance of following up from a 6 lb higher mark provided the headgear is equally effective a second ti…

Ballinaboola Gold (M)
Showed improved form upped another 3f in trip when second of 18 to Oogum Boogum in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (3m, good to soft) a fortnight ago, pulling clear of rest. Good chance of going one better.

Knocknagoran Lady (M)
[VT]
Took a marked step back in the right direction in a first-time visor when third of 19 in at Down Royal (3m, good to soft) early last month. Should be in the mix again if able to build on that here.

On long losing run but ran a bit better than of late when 16½ lengths eighth of 21 to Annie Button at Cork (3m, good to soft) 17 days ago. Wouldn't be sure to build on that here.

Queen Kulina (M)

Maiden who was just beginning to work her way into contention returning from 6 months off when falling 4 out at Punchestown (3m, good to soft) a fortnight ago, too far out to suggest where she would have finished. RESERVE.
