Moylussa (G)
[P]
Only has one win over hurdles but ran up to best when third of 15 in handicap at Ballinrobe (2m, good to soft) 13 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. A runner-up in points, he makes an interesting switch to chasing here.

Must Go Now (G)
Best recent effort came when third in a handicap hurdle at Cork in March. Tailed off both starts in chases. Hard to make a case for.

Soldante (G)
Progressive since sent chasing, making frame in each start. 8/1, third of 12 in handicap chase at Wexford (2m, good to soft) in May. Looks sure to be in the mix again.

Stoneyford Lady (M)

Made good start over fences, scoring at Thurles in November and shaping much better than the distance beaten suggests at Limerick next start. May have needed run when seventh of 14 in handicap (17/2) at Kilbeggan (2½m, good to soft) in Apr…

[T]
Runner-up when last seen over hurdles at Bellewstown in April. 5/2, not seen to best effect when third of 10 in handicap at Downpatrick (19f, good) on chasing debut 31 days ago, not ideally placed. Should improve in this sphere and is one …

Twelve runs since last win in 2024. Fourth of 8 in mares hurdle at Listowel (2m, good, 50/1) 9 days ago. Has a bit to prove back chasing.

L'amiral Fromentin (G)

Modest chaser. Has shaped well of late back over fences, unlucky not to finish closer when third of 14 in handicap at Limerick (2¼m, good) 18 days ago, finishing with running left after meeting some trouble. Yard has been among the winners…

Donnrua Dream (G)

Took advantage of a much reduced mark when winning over hurdles at Limerick (2m) in February. Let down by jumping when pulled up in handicap chase there (2¼m, good) 18 days ago. Isn't the most consistent.
