Play The Part^b¹¹

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: C A Landers⁽⁷⁾| T: W M Roper| OR: 109

11/1

Remains a 10-race maiden hurdler despite showing good form around this time of year 12-months ago. Nothing of note in three starts since May but not easily discounted.

Form: 33P-065

Berkeley Forest⁷⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: A Ring⁽³⁾| T: Miss E Lalor

66/1

Failed to finish in a couple of point-to-point starts over the spring, pulling up on both occasions. Likely to need the experience here.

Form: P-P

Cloudybackwest⁴⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: A E Lynch| T: P Neville| OR: 94

14/1

Seven-race maiden over timber largely well beaten on each occasion. Unlikely to play a part in the finish in this contest.

Form: 75/6F-5S

Creadan Grae⁵³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-4| J: D N Russell| T: G Elliott| OR: 102

6/1

Genuine and tough gelding who despite without a win in six hurdle starts has finished in the places on two occasion. Fourth of 10 in this race 12-months ago and deserves a change of luck but does appear to need it a little softer.

Form: 43244-8

Flatist^b1,t⁹

Age: 5| Weight: 11-4| J: M A Enright| T: D Hogan

66/1

Well beaten over 50L on each of his three maiden hurdle starts to date and first time blinkers doubtful to bring about the required amount of improvement needed.

Form: 070

Sticky Situation^t⁴²

Age: 7| Weight: 11-4| J: Katie O'Farrell⁽⁵⁾| T: P Neville| OR: 98

20/1

Little encouragement in three maiden hurdle starts since May following an 14-month absence away from the track and easily dismissed here.

Form: 385/096

Achiever^b1¹¹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Mark Walsh| T: J P O'Brien| BF

7/2

Well held in two maiden hurdle starts recently over differing trips. Cheekpieces are replaced by first-time blinkers here. Market should be informative.

Form: 7-54

Easy Game²⁸⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-0| J: Paul Townend| T: W P Mullins

4/5

French import last seen finishing fourth of nine on debut in a Fontainebleau bumper for trainer Gaetan Taupin. Likely to be a warm order on debut for leading connections.

Form: 4-

False Getaway²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: Phillip Enright| T: M Hourigan

25/1

Improved on first maiden hurdle start finishing fifth of 17 at Gowran Park last month but needs a vast improvement to figure in this contest.

Form: FF7-P05

Presenting Lilly²³

Age: 5| Weight: 10-11| J: J J Slevin| T: J P O'Brien

33/1

Well held in two innocuous maiden hurdle starts last month. Yard in good form with 11 wins in the last 14 days, but may need something special to conjure up some improvement here.

Form: 7-00

Forecasts

Easy Game (4/5), Achiever (7/2), Macgiloney (7/2), Creadan Grae (6/1), Archer's Up (8/1), Play The Part (11/1), Cloudybackwest (14/1), Sticky Situation (20/1), False Getaway (25/1), Presenting Lilly (33/1), Imagine That Jack (50/1), Berkeley Forest (66/1), Flatist (66/1)

Trainer Denis Hogan has brought along his five-year-old gelding MACGILONEY along nicely recently winning a Bellewstown bumper and can get off the mark over hurdles at the third time of asking here. The biggest danger is likely to come from the Willie Mullins-trained Easy Game on stable debut while potential improver Archers Up and the dropping back in trip, Creadan Grae can dispute for the remaining place position.
