Ah Littleluck^t²¹

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: J M Moore| T: T Gibney

10/1

Decent hurdler rated 131. Made a promising start over fences when finishing a close second at Wexford. Jumping went to pieces on second start at Galway and needs to get back to that earlier form.

Form: 8130-20

Cap D'Aubois²⁰⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: Ruby Walsh| T: W P Mullins

5/4

Good effort in finishing second over 2m7f at TIpperary (soft) in October but disappointed when favourite the following month and at the turn of the year. Still early days and should have leading claims with Ruby Walsh back aboard.

De Plotting Shed^t²²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-12| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 142| D

5/2

Useful hurdler but doesn't seem as good over fences. Fell on recent return to action at Galway. Clear chance if putting his best foot forward however.

Form: 22P2P-F

Iusetaluvheronce¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: C A Landers⁽⁵⁾| T: P Neville

66/1

Yet to win in 19 starts under rules but only had one go over fences so far when well beaten back in March. Needs much more here.

Form: 79-0677

Lion In His Heart³⁵

Age: 7| Weight: 11-12| J: D F O'Regan| T: H De Bromhead

16/1

Been a tale of jumping woes of late have unseated his rider on his last two starts over hurdles, both times when trying to run out, then being brought down back over fences last time. Jumping is a worry but not discounted with a clear round.

Form: P3P-UUB

Pallaskenry⁶⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: A E Lynch| T: H De Bromhead

6/1

Point-to-point winner who came good over hurdles at Wexford last time. Connections keen to go over fences stragiht away and another with potential to improve in this sphere.

Form: 1/697-21

Treasure Chest^t²⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: J S McGarvey| T: J P O'Brien

16/1

Fair hurdler who won a handicap off 113 when last seen over timber in June. Makes chase debut today and needs some improvement to match a couple of these.

Form: 2505-01

Wonderoftheworld^t⁴⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 11-12| J: R Loughran| T: A Fleming

14/1

Jumping errors have crept in the last twice and that is now a bit of a worry. Has the ability for sure to be involved in the finish here if ha can brush up his jumping this time around.

Form: F63-2FF

Forecasts

Cap D'Aubois (5/4), De Plotting Shed (5/2), Pallaskenry (6/1), Templemore Dream (10/1), Ah Littleluck (10/1), Kamil (10/1), Wonderoftheworld (14/1), Treasure Chest (16/1), Lion In His Heart (16/1), Iusetaluvheronce (66/1)

Kamil and Pallaskenry are both interesting newcomers over fences having won over hurdles last time. De Plotting Shed is more than capable of winning this on a going day. Ready preference is for CAP D'Aubois who has the best from out of this field and returns from a break with Ruby Walsh back aboard.
