Selected odds by:
Son of Craigsteel out a dam who was a winning point-to-pointer. Home bred and likely to find a few of these too good.
Bought for €17,000 as a half-brother to six winners out of a dam who was a winner on the Flat. Yard are 1-24 in bumpers.
Dam won a couple of races at a modest level. Yard are 8-113 in similar races and are just 1-35 with all National Hunt horses since the start of the year.
Ad Valorem gelding out a dam who was a poor maiden. Cost €4,700 and represents a yard that are 2-10 in bumpers this season.
Out a dam who is a winning point-to-pointer. Represents a yard that are 0-24 in bumpers over the past five seasons.
Originally purchased by David Elsworth for €19,000. Related to a couple of winners including middle-distance hurdler Celtic Monarch. First bumper runner for the yard.
A €25,000 3-y-o purchase for connections, this Getaway mare is a half-sister to three winners and merits a precautionary market check ahead of her debut.
Cost €40,000 out a mare who was a winning hurdler over 3m1f. Yard are 5-15 in bumpers here this season. One to note.
Half-brother to several winners including Jockey Club Cup winner Veracity. Failed to make it to the course for Mark Johnston and one to note in the market for a yard that can get one ready.
€45,000 son of Presenting out of a dam who won five races for Willie Mullins including a bumper on debut. Worth a check in the market with good amateur booked to ride.
Cost €13,000 as a three-year-old. Kayf Tara filly out of a moderate dam. Stable have had some success of late but it would be a surprise if she was good enough to take this on debut.
Flemensfirth filly out of a dam who won six races including four on the Flat. Stable are going through a quiet spell.

Forecasts
The Shearers Wife (3/1), Sparky Stowaway (4/1), Vocarium (5/1), You Raised Me Up (11/2), Sinnerman (13/2), Lady Ischia (10/1), Simon's Castle (10/1), State Of Nirvana (16/1), Buckie Cullen (16/1), Alive Inside (16/1), What Are Ya At (16/1), The Long Hall (33/1), Kennedys Girl (33/1), Dark Du Tabert Aa (33/1)
The market is going to be the principle guide to this newcomers race. Gordon Elliot has had a successful campaign in bumpers this season and it will be interesting to see how the market aligns his runner here, THE SHEARERS WIFE, particularly in the absence of a runner from the Mullins camp. The yard have done well with their bumper runners here in the past and €40,000 purchase looks the one to beat. You Raised Me Up is another expensive purchase and has a nice pedigree as does State Of Nirvana. Vocarium looks another to note given his Flat pedigree. He is related to several winners on the Flat including Godolphin's good stayer Veracity.
- The Shearers Wife
- Vocarium
- You Raised Me Up
