All Class¹²

Age: 5| Weight: 11-9| J: A W Short⁽³⁾| T: P Griffin

300/1

Modest sort over hurdles. Always towards rear, never a factor on chasing debut at Killarney earlier this month, tailed off last of 14.

Form: 00890-0

Dime A Dozen¹²

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: B J Cooper| T: J J Hanlon

5/2

Pleasing effort on first start over fences in a Killarney beginners contest over 2m5f earlier this month, finishing second of the 14 runners. One for the shortlist.

Form: 21321-2

Do Ya Feel Lucky²⁰

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: S W Flanagan| T: D H Kelly

80/1

Moderate novice form last year winning a maiden hurdle at Tramore in June. Well held in a number of starts since and best watched on chasing debut.

Form: 14366-7

Graceland^h,t1¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: D N Russell| T: G Elliott| BF| D

10/3

Useful on the Flat and is a 126-rated handicap hurdler. Disappointed when making a few mistakes as beaten favourite on chasing debut at Killarney earlier this month.

Form: 11319-4

Lucky Phil^h,t²³

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: D Meyler| T: T Cooper

16/1

Ran well over hurdles at Tipperary last month. Well held on latest start over the larger obstacles at Tramore last October but worthy of consideration in better form.

Form: 54190-2

Pivotal Flame²⁰⁶

Age: 7| Weight: 11-9| J: D E Mullins| T: W J Lanigan

25/1

Deservedly off the mark at the 12th time of asking for connections when landing a Ballinrobe handicap hurdle in September. Last seen in December. Market likely to be the best guide on chasing introduction.

Form: 54123P-

Popong¹³¹

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: Rachael Blackmore| T: H De Bromhead

2/1

Solid 134-rated hurdler. Last seen racing down the field in the Grade 1 David Nicholson mares' hurdle at the Cheltenham festival in March. Could be of interest on chasing debut for leading trainer/jockey combination.

Form: 215328-

Rapid Response¹⁵⁴

Age: 6| Weight: 11-9| J: P D Kennedy| T: Mrs J Harrington

16/1

Without a victory in six starts over hurdles with the daughter of Network producing more negatives than positives in her starts in a lightly raced career. Market the best guide on debut over fences.

Form: 494/U35-

Sliabh Mhuire Lass^p,t¹³⁷

Age: 9| Weight: 11-9| J: J J Slevin| T: Mrs G O'Connor| OR: 94

100/1

Six-race maiden over fences for this daughter of Grandera. Needs to find a bit of her point-to-point form following a number of inept efforts over fences between October/March.

Form: 2/P7378-

Something Sweet¹²

Age: 8| Weight: 11-9| J: P T Enright| T: R J McGrath

33/1

Consistent profile over hurdles with 14 placed efforts and two wins in 27 attempts. Not disgraced on chasing debut at Killarney earlier this month but more needed here.

Form: 22136-5

Zarkareva¹⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 10-11| J: D Robinson⁽³⁾| T: H De Bromhead| BF| D

7/1

Yet to shine in a number of starts for current connections following a win in France 12 months ago. Could be capable of a big run on chasing debut looking at some of her rivals.

Form: 167-0

Forecasts

Popong (2/1), Dime A Dozen (5/2), Graceland (10/3), Zarkareva (7/1), Lucky Phil (16/1), Rapid Response (16/1), Pivotal Flame (25/1), Something Sweet (33/1), Do Ya Feel Lucky (80/1), Sliabh Mhuire Lass (100/1), All Class (300/1)

The Gordon Elliott-trained GRACELAND can turn the tables on Dime A Dozen in the opener to get off the mark for connections at the second attempt. The mare finished behind the J J Hanlon-trained daughter of Jeremy at Killarney 12 days ago, but the drop in trip points towards a bold effort from the eight-year-old for the Elliott/Russell combination. Popong for trainer Henry De Bromhead could be of interest on chasing debut while Lucky Phil and Rapid Response should not be taken lightly.
