12/1
Distance winner who improved 10lb last season making all the right noises in the process over hurdles. Last of nine in October in a run that the Gold Well gelding may have needed.

Age: 7|  Weight: 11-5| J: L P Dempsey| T: J P Dempsey| OR:  111| D
7/2
Hard-to-win-with hurdler who showed a willing attitude to land a minor novice chase at Tramore last month, before unseating on latest chase start when in contention at Naas earlier this month. Not to be discounted.

Dont Kick Nor Bite27
Age: 6|  Weight: 11-3| J: Mark Walsh| T: R Tyner| OR:  109| D
4/1
One from seven over the larger obstacles the win coming in a Sligo beginners chase beating seven rivals by 2½L before a second-rate performance last time out at Galway. Needs to improve on last start.

Horse silk
Effernock Lad16
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-3| J: M P Flanagan(5)| T: G Keane| OR:  109| D
9/1
Failed to build on Sligo second with heavy defeats at Galway and Gowran Park before a 17L reversal at Thurles earlier in the month. Others preferred.

Horse silk
Little Stevie16
Age: 5|  Weight: 11-3| J: D J McInerney(5)| T: E Bolger| OR:  109| BF| D
9/2
Beaten favourite when finishing second of 10 at Thurles earlier this month when 11L behind Eiri Na Casca over 2m2f. Improving with every run and worth a market check nere.
6
Horse silk
Shantou Edb14
Age: 8|  Weight: 11-2| J: J S McGarvey| T: P A Fahy| OR:  108| D
10/1
Useful hurdler at best but clearly had his problems, with gaps in his CV, and didn't shown enough in a chase at Sligo in the summer before a heavy defeat last time out at Naas. Looks a tall order.
7
Horse silk
Slemisht120
Age: 7|  Weight: 10-10| J: M A Enright| T: J T R Dreaper| OR:  102
10/3
Not much to shout about in three second-rate chase performances including a 14L defeat on handicap debut earlier this month at Cork. Others hold stronger profiles.
8
Horse silk
Rolling Rocket20
Age: 11|  Weight: 10-8| J: A W Short(7)| T: S Ryan| OR:  100| D
33/1
Now 11-year-old and without a win in almost two years, was out of form over the larger obstacles in March before another below par performance at Cork this month. Looks vulnerable in this company.

15:30 Gowran Park - 25 November 2017 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

Possible lone speed here from PERSIAN WIND in the early stages of this 2m contest and could have a couple of his opponents in trouble some way out. The seven-year-old was still in contention when unseating last time out when looking to follow up on a win at Tramore last month. Little Stevie and Don't Kick Nor Bite can land the minor honours.
  1. Persian Wind
  2. Little Stevie
  3. Dont Kick Nor Bite
