Fire Away²³⁶

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: R Deegan⁽⁵⁾| T: G T Hourigan

7/2

Gelding by Getaway out of a Supreme Leader mare. Still in with a chance when travelling well in a May point-to-point, but this looks a tall order on debut.

Form: F

La Tektor⁹⁷⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr F Maguire⁽³⁾| T: A J Martin

14/1

Protektor gelding out of a Bonnet Rouge mare. Poor in a couple of point-to-point starts when last seen in 2016. Makes stable debut here and any market move should be noted.

Form: R4/

Live Every Day^t1⁶²

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr S Cavanagh⁽⁷⁾| T: J J Walsh

25/1

Promising fourth of 13 beaten over 12l on debut at Listowel before disappointing on a couple of occasions at Galway in October. First time tongue-tie unlikely to bring about the required amount of improvement needed to play a role here.

Form: 407

Southern Nights²⁴⁵

Age: 5| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: W P Mullins

4/1

Only just touched off in a point-to-point but disappointed in a couple of bumpers last April. Looks to have been given plenty of time and could be of interest on return.

Form: 230-

Assemble²⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr T Hamilton⁽⁵⁾| T: J P O'Brien

11/8

Plenty to like about his fourth of 14 on return to action in a Fairyhouse bumper this month. Looks a progressive sort and a leading player here.

Form: 23-4

Cobbler's Way²⁶⁴

Age: 4| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr B O'Neill| T: H De Bromhead

5/1

Second of 12 in an April point-to-point and makes his rules debut here for influential owners and an inform yard who have been among the winners this week at the venue. Not to be taken lightly.

Form: 2-

Dinny Lacey

Age: 4| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr J W Hannon⁽⁷⁾| T: J Motherway

12/1

Presenting gelding out of an Old Vic mare. Cost €125,000 as a three-year-old and could be worth an each way investment.

Form:

I Got This¹⁹

Age: 4| Weight: 11-11| J: Mr J C Barry⁽⁵⁾| T: E McNamara

66/1

Taken off his feet in a Punchestown 2m bumper on debut earlier this month and possibly one for the future.

Form: 0

Mc Alpine

Age: 4| Weight: 11-11| J: L Quinlan| T: P J Rothwell

25/1

Gelding by Robin Des Champs out of a Lute Antique mare. Looks opposable on debut but worth a market check with significant jockey booking.

Forecasts

Assemble (11/8), Fire Away (7/2), Southern Nights (4/1), Cobbler's Way (5/1), Dinny Lacey (12/1), La Tektor (14/1), Teddy's Acre (20/1), Mc Alpine (25/1), Live Every Day (25/1), I Got This (66/1)

Fascinating closing bumper, where the Joseph O'Brien-trained ASSEMBLE can build on his fine fourth at Fairyhouse this month to see off the attentions of the patiently waited with, Southern Nights, Cobblers Way from the in form Henry De Bromhead yard and Mcalpine, the mount of Jamie Codd. The Presenting gelding Dinny Lacey, who cost €125,000 as a three-year-old is also worthy of consideration.
