Any Time^t³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: Mr T P Harney⁽⁷⁾| T: R O'Sullivan

100/1

A long time maiden on the Flat before running in point-to-points; has yet to score in that sphere too. Well beaten in the cross-country race at the Punchestown Festival. Hard to enthuse about.

Form: 5P34-73

Cotton Jenny³²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: S F O'Keeffe⁽⁷⁾| T: B Jordan| OR: 112

7/1

Last victorious three years ago. Does have placed efforts to her name but on the whole needs to step up to get involved. Third start back in Ireland after a spell in Britain.

Form: 3255-63

Darling Miss^p¹⁷

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: D F O'Regan| T: G Elliott| BF

9/1

Chase debut after a busy Spring campaign over hurdles. Landed a hat-trick under a double penalty at Uttoxeter last month. A half-sister to smart chaser An Cathaoir Mor. Looks fairly straight-forward for a Scorpion mare. Pieces retained.

Form: 521112

Feisty Madam⁴²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: J J Slevin| T: S J Mahon

100/1

Dubai Destination mare who is yet to make the frame in thirteen starts. Tends to run very keen. Probably best watched on this occasion.

Form: 990-7P0

Isle Of Destiny^p²⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: D N Russell| T: G Elliott| OR: 114

9/2

Just beaten on chase debut at Downpatrick last time out over 2m7f. Won over this distance at Hexham in October. Ground should suit and has obvious claims here for leading connections.

Form: 3185-42

Light Bulb³⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: P T Enright| T: J R Finn

66/1

Showed much improved form to win a 3m point-to-point at Ballingarry last time out. Live chance if replicating that under rules. Dam a half sister to good chaser Cuan Na Grai.

Form: 83P-P41

Presentingprincess^t¹⁵

Age: 8| Weight: 11-7| J: P E Corbett| T: Mrs D A Love| D

9/2

Refused to race on Last debut at Ballinrobe last time out. Winning hurdler and three time point-to-point winner. Very much respected here on chase debut.

Form: 76P-533

Randall's Aoibhinn²⁵⁴

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: M J Bolger| T: S Fahey

66/1

Chase debut and first run since October. A maiden in bumpers and over hurdles. One piece of good form came at Kilbeggan last June when just beaten. That was over 3m and may find one or two too good here.

Form: 80656P-

Shimmer And Shine²³

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: A Ring| T: P Croke| BF

12/1

Has been in good form this spring / summer over hurdles. Makes chase debut today. Has a decent chance if translating that form to the larger obstacles.

Form: 4213-23

Sunrise Lady⁴⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 11-7| J: R A Doyle⁽⁵⁾| T: C O'Dwyer

6/1

Was very keen on chase debut at Limerick at the end of May. Had won a maiden hurdle by 12L at Cork on penultimate start. Trip no problem but needs to settle better.

Form: 4420-14

Torquay⁴⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 11-7| J: S W Flanagan| T: E McNamara| D

12/1

Narrowly beaten on chase debut at Downpatrick, was headed inside the last few strides. Had previously won a handicap hurdle at Limerick. Half sister to two winners and holds a chance here.

Form: 9851-72

Ballylee^h,t²⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: P J Cawley⁽⁷⁾| T: D H Kelly

66/1

Could well be more to come from this daughter of Yeats. Three runs so far. Ran in a very hot 2m novice chase here last time out. By no means disgraced in fifth of eight. Definitely more to come, upped in trip here.

Form: P/05

Eoline Jolie^t⁴²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-6| J: P Townend| T: W P Mullins

11/4

Yet to show much since joining powerful yard. To soon to be writing off this five-year-old daughter of No Risk At All. However, needs to show big improvement on chase debut.

Form: 8/406-00

Forecasts

Eoline Jolie (11/4), Isle Of Destiny (9/2), Presentingprincess (9/2), Sunrise Lady (6/1), Cotton Jenny (7/1), Darling Miss (9/1), Shimmer And Shine (12/1), Torquay (12/1), Light Bulb (66/1), Ballylee (66/1), Randall's Aoibhinn (66/1), Any Time (100/1), Feisty Madam (100/1)

ISLE OF DESTINY was just denied at Downpatrick last month and can gain redemption for all-conquering connections in this beginners chase. Ballylee took the eye when fifth behind Farclas in a very good novice chase at this venue last time out; stepped up in trip here and has to enter calculations. Torquay, another who was narrowly beaten on chase debut last time out can fill a place; she was in good form prior to that.
