Maverick Mack (G)
Came on plenty for his sole outing in bumpers when winning a maiden hurdle at Gowran last November. Failed to complete both handicap starts (through no fault of his own at Ballinrobe last time) and his mark looks on the high side.

William Tell (G)
[T]
Made a positive start to his hurdling career with a double at Thurles/Cork but all of a sudden has something to prove, having again finished well held on return/handicap debut at Killarney.

Ottoman Style (G)
[BT]
Clearly hasn't been the easiest to train, but he proved that some ability remains intact when fourth of 8 at Kilbeggan (50/1) on reappearance, and it'll be interesting to see if the market expects him to build on that.

Beyond Your Dreams (M)
[B1]
Winner of a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle for Joseph Patrick O'Brien, but she failed to fire in either start for current yard last January, and it's hardly a sign of confidence that blinkers are reached for.

Falcon Eight (G)
[P]
Veteran doesn't look the force of old and he was behind when unseating on return to hurdles at this track (19f) in late-April.

Jackmoon (G)
[T]
Has placed on 4 of his 5 starts over hurdles, including a narrow defeat in a Cork maiden and a creditable third in a competitive event on handicap debut at Wexford (3m) last time. Looks a fairly solid proposition and a similar performance …

Streets Of Doyen (G)
[T]
Veteran who failed to complete on his last 3 starts for John McConnell in 2024. Has since joined a new yard and has plenty to prove reverted to hurdles.

Good World (G)
[P]
Resumed winning ways in a Fairyhouse handicap hurdle last November, and although never involved over fences on return at Kilbeggan, he's weighted to be competitive if on a going day back hurdling.

Juke Hill (G)
[P]
Point runner-up who failed to justify support in first-time cheekpieces on handicap bow at Thurles (heavy) in late-January. Clearly thought capable of better, though, and at least warrants a market check on return.

Morell River (M)
FAV
Made it 2-2 at Wexford (2½m) with a smooth-travelling success on her return from 6 months off. That looks solid form for the grade, and with high hopes that this longer trip will suit, she's entitled to be firmly in the mix.

Accustomed (G)
Gambled-on second at Downpatrick in March but is now tried over a significantly longer trip having finished well held both starts since (probably did too much too soon in first-time blinkers here latest).

Remains with little form and first-time cheekpieces unlikely to make a difference.
