Rocky's Diamond (G)
[T]
Promising start over fences last season, scoring at Galway in September before backing that up in listed/graded level. However, he was tailed off on both outings over hurdles in the winter and he'll need to hit the ground running on return…

Boston Rover (G)
Progressed well over fences last summer, completing a hat-trick when seeing off 8 rivals in handicap at Gowran (2½m, soft) in October. Ran too badly to be true at Limerick later that month and hasn't been seen since. Every chance he will g…

Pride Of Place (G)
[B]
Bounced back to form in refitted headgear when winning 11-runner Killarney National (3¼m, good to soft) last month. Yard have a brilliant recent record in this and he could well be up to defying a 9 lb higher mark.

Pretty useful but just a maiden success to her name over fences. Not seen since when facing a stiff task from 2 lb out of the weights in Coral Gold Cup at Newbury (3¼m, good to soft) in November but no surprise to see an improved effort he…

Where's My Jet (G)
Useful winning hurdler but increasingly looks a stable lesser light, unplaced in 8 tries over fences and making little impact at Punchestown (2½m, good to soft) just under 6 weeks ago.

Bartlemy Boy (G)
Doubled his tally in hunter chases when winning 11-runner event at Listowel (3m, good to soft) last week, going one better than he had the previous year. Switches to handicap company and will need to progress again to feature.

Kings Hill (G)
Useful hurdler at his best and capitalised on a lower chase mark in novice handicap at Limerick in March. Ran at least as well when third in 17-runner contest at Fairyhouse (21f) in April but this trip seems likely to stretch him (tailed o…

Ambitious Fellow (G)

Killaney King (G)

[H]
Reliable maiden hurdler who had been given a chance by the handicapper and ran well upped in trip when second of 17 in handicap at Fairyhouse (25f, soft) 9 weeks ago. Has since left Henry de Bromhead but completely unexposed over staying t…

Rocky's Howya (G)
[B]
Trailblazer who has been resurgent equipped with headgear, making it 4 wins from last 5 starts (over hurdles/fences) in a Clonmel claiming hurdle (19.5f) last month. Back chasing and would be folly to rule out in this vein of form.

Tonaghneave Well (G)
[P]
Hadn't been in much form when last seen but probably needed the run after 6 months off at Kilbeggan (2½m, good) recently. Extra distance a worry here (borderline useful as a hurdler up to 2½m).

Dual-winning hurdler in 2024/25 and matched that feat over the larger obstacles last season. Ran well reverted to hurdles after 9 months off at Wexford (2½m, good to soft) recently and no surprise should she continue that good work back ch…

Goody Four Shoes (G)

Hermino AA (G)

Useful at best for Gary & Josh Moore but has shown little since joining his current yard, never better than mid-division having been typically less than fluent at Killarney last time. Blinkers the headgear of choice here.
