14/1
Struggling for consistency this year, with two solid efforts from five to date. Best form gives her a claim but heavy reverse at Downpatrick 10 days ago over this sort of trip.
Modest on the Flat, winning over 1m at Killarney in July from a mark of 65, switches to hurdles now for champion trainer, whose string are in superb form and respected.

Maiden after five attempts in bumpers, she was beaten just under 10L on jumping bow at Tramore last month (2m5f, soft) and could have some improvement coming.

5/4
Placed five times from a dozen outings over timber, somewhat worryingly has finished second in each of the last four starts. Respected but could be vulnerable again.

Well beaten in both starts so far most recently on hurdling debut at Roscommon in July. Little to recommend here.

Well beaten in three bumper runs and similar tale in 2m5f maiden hurdle at Tramore last month, has plenty improvement to find.

Form in two runs over hurdles is uninspiring to say the least, beaten combined total of 147L. Goes up in trip with seemingly limited hopes at the moment.

Best effort this season, from seven, came five days ago over 3m at Wexford when beaten just over 7L into fourth of 12. Drops in trip again here as search for elusive win goes on.

Returns from 352-day off and form in five prior starts over timber gives here major room for improvement if hoping to have a say in this.

Has gone okay in some maiden hurdles and not discounted wearing a first-time hood, also first attempt at this trip.

Well beaten all four hurdles starts earlier in the year but was not without support on each occasion. Interesting to see how market judges on return but needs to improve.

Shown only moderate promise in bumpers at Tipperary and Kilbeggan, does at least appear have stamina for this test and market check called for on hurdles bow.

Horse silk
100/1
Beaten 67L in 2m4f Limerick bumper in July on debut, off since and must improve significantly to have any claim now.

Delayed Eloquence sets the standard on form for this but a string of second-placed finishes rather helps to temper enthusiasm. She could once more find at least one too good and that could be the jumping newcomer GRAINNE'S DREAM for the champion trainer. She was a fair Flat winner and could have a race like this at her mercy now. Joy's Gift and Jazz Mine have run well over timber while it will be noted how the returning White Lilac fairs in the market having disappointed supporters earlier in the year at this level.
