|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|

Bethpage Theatre (M)
Fascinating Rock mare. Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Drumgill. Dam (b75) lightly raced in bumpers. Not an obvious type on debut.

Dictionary Corner (M)
300/1, first run since leaving Patrick J. Flynn when a remote eighth of 14 in novice hurdle at Cork (19f) 35 days ago.

Divaboriva (M)
FAV
Bumper winner was creditable fifth of 20 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Fairyhouse (3m, soft) 36 days ago. Sets the bar pretty high amongst those with hurdling experience.

Drumadeise (M)
Diamond Boy mare. Half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Getaway Katie Mai and fair hurdler Koultas King, stayed 3m. Perhaps more of a long-term prospect on paper.

Eagle Doll (M)
Saddle slipped early when pulled up in novice hurdle at Clonmel (2½m, good to soft) on debut 26 days ago but the fact she was sent off 100/1 doesn't speak positively.

Evelyn (M)
[T]
Placed in a Galway bumper in September, before showing improved form on her second hurdles start when sixth of 16 in maiden at Thurles the following month. Hasn't kicked on since, but might hold frame claims in a race that lacks depth.

Golden Wings (M)
[H]
Mid-field in a bumper and shaped like a stayer when third of 20 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.6f, heavy, 80/1) in January. Reportedly suffered an overreach at Limerick last time. Longer trip should suit if able to get back on track.

P9/3P- | Danny Gilligan | G Elliott | 5 | 73 kg |

| 9th | 8 | — |
Hillhead Runner (M)
Runner-up in maidens at Bellewstown and Sligo last summer but below-par eighth at Navan when last seen. Makes yard debut (formerly trained by Gavin Cromwell) after 7 months off.

2F328/9 | Philip Byrnes | C Byrnes | 6 | 73 kg |

Only poor form in 3 starts over hurdles and soundly beaten back in a bumper last time.

| 3rd | 10 | — |
La Cote Fleurie (M)
Walzertakt filly was strong in the betting and ran out a fairly impressive winner of an 11-runner Tipperary bumper (2m, good to soft) in October. The one to beat if taking to hurdles after 7 months off.
|
1/3 | Mike O'Connor | H De Bromhead | 5 | 73 kg |

Local News (M)
Malinas mare. Half-sister to modest chaser Hollywood Harmon. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 25f) Bob Lingo and fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Talk The Lingo. Might need time and distance.

Miss Georgina (M)
Modest form when in frame on her last 3 starts in maiden hurdles and though she could do similar again here, she'll likely have much better chance of breaking her duck when in handicaps.

Noble Name (M)
[HT]
Point/bumper winner ran to a fair level in 2 maiden hurdles in the autumn and would hold place claims if returning from 6-month break in the same form.

Ann Bulkley (F)
Fourth in 2 juvenile hurdles prior to Christmas when trained by Ciaran Murphy but that still only amounts to poor form and she'll need to improve returning for new yard after a break.

Rebel Queen (F)
Bred to stay well and made more impact than previously when fifth of 11 in juvenile hurdle at Limerick (2m, soft) 40 days ago. Open to improvement up in trip but hard to see her seriously troubling the principals here.

Third both starts in points but came in last of 4 in hunter chase at Cork (3m, soft, 9/1) on Rules debut last month and down the field in a Limerick maiden hurdle 10 days later. RESERVE.
