2nd	1	—	Approval (G) HT Fairly useful Flat winner for Owen Burrows. Caught the eye on this qualifying run after 12 weeks off when third of 16 in maiden hurdle at Killarney (2m, good to soft) but looks the type to do better …	0532	Tom Kelly E McNamara	5	75.3kg	8.50 15/2
3rd	2	—	Bud Fox (G) Made a promising start in bumpers and has shown ability on all 3 starts over hurdles, most recently in a first-time hood when fourth of 14 in maiden at Kilbeggan (2m, good) just under 3 weeks ago (no…	1/367-54	Keith Donoghue G P Cromwell	5	75.3kg	7.50 13/2
—	3	—	Euro Agent (G) Ran as well as previously after 11 weeks off when second of 9 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (2¼m, good) just over 3 weeks ago. Drop in trip almost certain not to suit so he looks opposable for win …	5-72231	Jack Kennedy G Elliott	5	75.3kg	11 10/1 Paddy… 15 Betfa… 13 Sky B… 13
5th	4	—	Individualism (G) T Fairly useful on Flat up to 11f for Charlie Johnston. Little encouragement to glean from his 3 starts for current connections and handicaps after this likely more suitable.	665	Calum Hogan E McNamara	5	75.3kg	67 66/1
10th	5	—	Jules Winfield (G) T Made a winning debut in a Ballinrobe bumper in April 2025 and took a step forward the following month when runner-up at Haydock. Ran too badly to be true when last seen in June that year and makes hi…	1/29-	Daniel King A J Martin	5	75.3kg	15 14/1
6th	6	—	Kilmond Knight (G) Pulled up sole outing in points and well held all 3 completed starts over hurdles (reported to have made a noise in running last time). Unlikely to be of interest until handicapping.	P-U078	Alan O'Sullivan David Barry	6	75.3kg	301 300/1
11th	7	—	Kingston Silver (G) Well held both starts in recent weeks.	090	Danny Mullins W J Lanigan	5	75.3kg	301 300/1
—	8	—	Talking Tough (G) Fell One-time fair Flat performer but out of sorts at present. Best watched on hurdling debut.	—	Conor Ryan S M Duffy	9	75.3kg	301 300/1
—	9	—	Thyer (G) T Fairly useful handicapper on Flat, again running well without quite proving strong enough in the finish to extend his run of in-frame efforts when fifth of 15 at Roscommon (1½m, good to soft) just ov…	0-65325	Darragh O'Keeffe Maurice Ahern	5	75.3kg	13 12/1 Paddy… 15 Sky B… 15 Betfa… 13
4th	10	—	Tyson Fury (G) P Useful at best on the Flat, returning to winning ways at Dundalk (10.5f) in March. Yet to score over hurdles but again ran well when second of 13 in maiden at Kilbeggan (19f, good) just over 6 weeks …	610608	Sean Flanagan D Hogan	9	75.3kg	4.33 10/3
7th	11	—	Born De Ceres (G) For Fun gelding who showed nothing when tailed-off last of 6 in bumper at Punchestown (17f, heavy) back in February. Makes hurdling debut.	6-75	Danny Gilligan P J Gilligan	4	74.4kg	301 300/1
—	12	—	John Gun (G) Showed a bit more tried in a hood when fifth of 12 in maiden hurdle at Wexford (17f, good) last month, though spoiled his chance by tending to jump right.	95	Non Runner K Purcell	4	74.4kg	67 66/1
1st	13	—	Love Me Tender (G) FAV Sent off favourite and shaped encouragingly on his first outing since leaving Peter Schiergen (for €180,000) when tenth of 22 in the Ebor at York (1¾m, good to soft) last month, inexperience showing …	114-0	Paul Townend W P Mullins	4	74.4kg	1.44 4/9
9th	14	—	Magna Gee Gee (G) Turned in best effort of the season to end a lengthy losing run by a narrow margin at Limerick on penultimate start in July. Tailed off at Gowran a fortnight later and now has a second start over hur…	R98	Aidan Kelly P J Flynn	4	74.4kg	201 200/1
13th	15	—	Messire Des Bordes (G) Not knocked about when eighth of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Bellewstown on debut in April but finished tailed off at Killarney (17f, good to soft) the following month.	8-0	Conor Stone-Walsh G P Cromwell	4	74.4kg	301 300/1
14th	16	—	Thepoetslodge (G) All his 3 runs so far have been short on promise and he makes minimal appeal this side of handicaps. Returns from 6 months off.	P00-	Kieren Buckley G P Cromwell	4	74.4kg	301 300/1
—	17	—	Omakase (M) Fell Notched up a second career success on what was just her second race at 2m+ at Gowran back in May 2025. Ran well when third at Navan (13f, good) the following month and hasn't been seen since. Makes h…	7/13513-	Cian Cullinan P G Fahey	8	72.1kg	51 50/1
8th	18	—	Faerie Tales (F) Uninspiring Flat record but made a decent go of it on her first go over hurdles when third at Tramore (2m) last month. Went backwards from that at Wexford since so needs to quickly get back on track.	348	Ben Kennedy P G Fahey	4	71.2kg	126 125/1
—	19	—	Liath Mor (F) Sumbal filly. Dam pulled up sole start in points. Market check advised on debut. RESERVE.	0	Reserve 1 G P Cromwell	4	71.2kg	51 50/1 Paddy… 67 Sky B… 67 Betfa… 41
12th	20	—	Midnight Reign (G) Berkshire gelding. Dam (h99), 2½m hurdle winner, closely related to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 3m) Aviewtosea. RESERVE.	0	Jordan Gainford P Nolan	4	74.4kg	101 100/1
—	21	—	Down After Dark (G) H Wings of Eagles gelding who could hardly have shown any less on his completed start over hurdles. RESERVE.	U90	Reserve 3 S Curling	4	74.4kg	— Sky B… 201 Betfa… 201 Paddy… 201
