—	1	—	Jonny Carrol (G) T Low mileage 5-y-o. Finished as close as he when 7 lengths fourth of 14 at Wexford (2½m) last time. Improvement to find but looks ready for this step up in trip.	3P-7840	Miss Ella Herbison M McCabe	5	76.2kg	13 12/1 Sky B… 17 Betfa… 17 Paddy… 17
—	2	—	Journey So Far (G) H Low-mileage 6-y-o. Switched to a powerful owner prior to decisively making all in beginners chase at Tramore (2¾m). Wasn't seen to best effect reverted to patient tactics at Galway. Could make more i…	078-619	Keith Donoghue G P Cromwell	6	76.2kg	15 14/1 Sky B… 8 Paddy… 8 Betfa… 7.50
—	3	—	Charlie's Dilemma (G) B Fallen a long way in the weights since his handicap debut and shaped as though back in form with creditable efforts at Limerick/Wexford. Showed his jumping problems haven't been completely ironed out…	78-845U	Simon Torrens J C McConnell	7	75.7kg	9 8/1 Paddy… 13 Sky B… 13 Betfa… 12
1st	4	—	Knocknagoran Lady (M) BT Strong-travelling mare. Shaped as if still ahead of her mark when bidding for a hat-trick at Roscommon last time, not enjoying the clearest of passages/hampered prior to finishing with running left. …	61141P	Conor Stone-Walsh Cian Hughes	7	75.7kg	9 8/1
—	5	—	Midleton Rare (G) PT Notched his third win of last season for Ian Patrick Donoghue at Bellewstown in April. Sent off at 33/1 when meeting trouble on first start for new yard at Wexford (3m) last time. Could still be comp…	1P-9020	Erin Dunseath N C Kelly	8	75.7kg	26 25/1 Paddy… 34 Betfa… 34 Sky B… 34
4th	6	—	Astley (G) T Maiden who placed in a bumper prior to offering little at long odds in maiden/novice hurdles. Did run to a fairly useful level first 2 starts over fences in the spring (well held latest). Switches to…	535-543	Philip Byrnes Paul Traynor	6	73.5kg	9.50 17/2
9th	7	—	Bayonetta (M) BT Long-standing maiden who continued a fine run of in-frame finishes when 6¾ lengths third of 14 at Wexford (2½m) last time. Return to 3m/switch to more severe headgear could eke out some improvement.	422439	J J Slevin Gerald Quinn	8	73.5kg	15 14/1
11th	8	—	Matter Of Opinion (G) PT On a workable mark based on the best of his effort in maidens last season, however, he hasn't shown his form over this sort of trip to date (well-held fifth of 13 at Wexford latest).	P579-75	Ms L A Byrne William Harvey	6	72.6kg	9 8/1
10th	9	—	Schiehallion (G) P Veteran hasn't taken to fences recently. Reverts to hurdling off 5 lb lower than when second in this corresponding race last year. Weighed to make a serious bid for an elusive first win.	2-P5P04	P J O'Hanlon D A McLoughlin	9	72.6kg	21 20/1
—	10	—	Brandt (G) T Borderline fairly useful stayer over fences in 2024/5. Shaped with a bit more encouragement than of late when 6½ lengths sixth of 16 on return to hurdling at Sligo (3¼m, soft) in June. Interesting if…	0667-61	Ben Harvey C Collins	8	72.1kg	15 14/1 Paddy… 9.50 Sky B… 9 Betfa… 8.50
12th	11	—	Georgia Celena (M) Form of last month's close second at Wexford has taken a knocks. Denied the chance to enhance her fine Downpatrick record behind Sneddy Eddie last time, meeting trouble at a vital stage. Still looks …	20-3U25	Joshua Halford J C McConnell	8	71.7kg	12 11/1
—	12	—	Grace Faraday (M) H Temperamental sort is back on same mark as when scoring over hurdles at Galway in October. Far from a sure thing to capitalise, though, returning to hurdles 3 months on from a forgettable chasing deb…	456-U12	James Smith A McCann	8	71.7kg	15 14/1 Paddy… 21 Sky B… 21 Betfa… 19
5th	13	—	Sneddy Eddie (G) P Fair winning handicapper (1m) at best on the Flat. Improved for the longer trip when off the mark over hurdles at Downpatrick (2¾m). Caught the eye with how he moved through the race on that occasion…	0/0149-9	James Smith G Elliott	6	71.7kg	6.50 11/2
3rd	14	—	Fire Coral (M) FAV T Completed a double in this corresponding race off 6 lb lower mark 12 months ago. Benefits from good-value claimer taking over this time, and confirmed herself in good nick when third on the Flat at T…	5-P3831	Michael Kenneally S Curling	7	70.8kg	4.50 7/2
2nd	15	—	Technology (G) HT Long-standing maiden ran poorly at Kilbeggan 7 weeks ago. Yard has better-fancied runners in the race.	0-F0209	Shane Fitzsimons J C McConnell	9	68kg	21 20/1
13th	16	—	Moonshine Girl (M) Still seeking first win but posted solid runner-up efforts at Limerick/Roscommon prior to again doing little wrong in the finish when 6 lengths fourth of 16 at Ballinrobe (23f, good). Smooth-travelli…	2401S3	Jack Gilligan P J Gilligan	7	67.1kg	11 10/1
14th	17	—	Clever Court (G) B Vastly improved when gaining first success in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (2½m) in July but unable to replicate that level in pair of starts at this trip since.	P-PP179	Tiernan Power Roche P J Rothwell	5	65.8kg	34 33/1
6th	18	—	Whatyouwant (M) P Has popped up with a handicap win in the previous 2 calendar years. She's blown more cold than hot from a falling mark this summer, though.	759060	Thomas O'Connor Gerard Kyne	8	65.8kg	19 18/1
7th	19	—	Gypsy Poet (G) Lightly-raced maiden who showed more than previously when sixth over C&D last autumn. Didn't build on that when well beaten at Kilbeggan last time, though he had been off for 8 months prior.	876-074	Josh Williamson Liz Doyle	5	64.9kg	9 8/1
15th	20	—	Sekifi (G) PT Inconsistent performer who wasn't on a going day at Sligo in early-July. Something to find at the weights, even with good-value claimer taking over. Cheekpieces go back on.	086-05P	Ethan O'Sullivan M J Smith	8	63.5kg	23 22/1
—	21	—	My Policy (M) P Runner-up in handicaps in 2024/5. Hasn't shown anything either start since returning from a significant absence. RESERVE	5P82/PP	Reserve 1 P Rooney	7	69.4kg	34 33/1 Betfa… 21 Paddy… 21 Sky B… 21
8th	22	—	Le Grand Vert (G) PT Nearly bagged a third chase win of the year at Cartmel in late-June. Wasn't disgraced reverted to fences at Galway last time. Hasn't previously shaped as though ready to capitalise on lower hurdles m…	12P684	Erin Dunseath N C Kelly	10	68kg	17 16/1
