Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr J C Barry⁽⁵⁾| T: J C McConnell

5/1

Point-to-point winner in March and shaped with plenty of promise on bumper debut when third of 12 at Bellewstown earlier this month. Looks a progressive type and shortlisted here in first-time hood.

Form: 41-3

The Shunter¹⁸

Age: 6| Weight: 12-0| J: Mr D O'Connor| T: J O Clifford

5/2

Three-times placed in six bumper starts despite meeting several high class performers. Well held in a couple of maiden hurdles recently but could be more of a danger back on the level. Third of nine in this contest 12-months ago.

Form: 373-403

Cats For Cash²⁰⁷

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr B O'Neill| T: G Elliott| BF

10/1

Not seen since finishing second of five in a Down Royal bumper in June, beaten 3L. Open to significant improvement on return to action.

Form: 2

Deployed⁸⁰

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr M J O'Hare⁽³⁾| T: N Meade

9/4

Modest form in a couple of point-to-point starts in the spring. Fourth of 14 on encouraging debut in a Galway bumper in October. Capable of a big run.

Form: P-84

Elusive Star

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Mr P W Mullins| T: M Hourigan

10/1

Gelding by Elusive Pimpernel out of a Rock City mare. Yard without a winner in 11 bumper starts this term but has a significant jockey booking.

Form:

Thunder Down Under²³⁴

Age: 5| Weight: 11-12| J: Ms L O'Neill| T: G Elliott

4/1

Last seen finishing third of 13 in a May point-to-point. Likely to be popular in the market on debut for powerful connections.

Form: U3

Forecasts

Deployed (9/4), The Shunter (5/2), Thunder Down Under (4/1), Mats Hall (5/1), Cats For Cash (10/1), Elusive Star (10/1)

Tricky contest to close the meeting where preference is for the Down Royal runner-up CATS FOR CASH who can improve for trainer Gordon Elliott. Plenty of contenders and big dangers in the race including Thunder Down Under and Deployed for the Gigginstown House Stud, while The Shunter should not be easily discounted.
