—	2	—	Born Bright (M) Pulled Up P Dual-winning hurdler in 2024/25 and matched that feat over the larger obstacles last season. Acquitted herself well under both codes this season and ought to give another good account here.	114-34P	Mr D O'Sullivan C O'Connell	7	75.3kg	26 25/1
9th	3	—	Tullybeg (G) T On a lengthy losing run and no obvious sign he's in the form to snap it.	1-457U9	Mr E Mahon B McMahon	11	75.3kg	34 33/1

1st	9	—	Whateys Quest (G) P Largely in good form last winter but ran no sort of race at Kilbeggan (2½m, good) when last seen in May. Cheekpieces are refitted on return. Would need to see market support to consider.	53428-0	Miss A L Fitzgibbon C Byrnes	8	72.1kg	26 25/1
8th	10	—	Justatan (G) PT Dual point winner. Still a maiden under Rules but that shouldn't remain the case for too long judged on his near miss on Galway chase debut (23f, soft) 19 days ago. Likely to progress, particularly a…	309-332	Mr B T Stone E Mullins	7	71.7kg	4.33 10/3
