40/1
Court Cave gelding out of a Vertical Speed mare. Closely related to Gold Speed, bumper winner also successful over hurdles at 2m. Likely to improve on debut run at Downpatrick last month, fourth of 10 runners.
2
Horse silk
80/1
Gelding by Frozen Fire out of a Carnival Dancer mare. Failed to register a completion in a couple of point-to-point starts in January/October last year. Best watched on debut.

4/7
Gelding by Jeremy. Cost €36,000 as a yearling; stoutly-bred gelding related to plenty of hurdles winners. Pleasing debut at Fairyhouse when last seen in January. Likely to go close.
Gelding by Le Carde Noir a half-brother to 1m1f-2m winner Life Less Ordinary. Beaten over 20L on both career starts in bumpers at Punchestown and more recently at Tipperary in June.
6
Horse silk
22/1
Fairly Ransom gelding out of Irish bred mare: one paced from a long way out on debut at Limerick in December before a 49L defeat, last of five at Navan when last seen in January.
7
Horse silk
18/1
Gelding by Elusive Pimpernel. Cost €23,000 as a three-year-old. Fair showing on debut at Limerick in June before a decent effort at Gowran Park over 2m last month. Capable of further improvement.
8
Horse silk
9/2
Cape Cross gelding out of a Manduro mare. Closely related to Yellow Flag, decent hurdler/chaser. Likely to need the first run on debut.
9
Horse silk
16/1
Gelding by Spider Flight. Well held, never nearer in a couple of maiden hurdle starts at this venue and Cork last month. Worth a check in the market on bumper debut.
10
Horse silk
100/1
14 months separated wide-margin defeats in bumpers at Limerick and this venue 12 months ago. Beaten 60L on comeback run at Ballinrobe last month.
11
Horse silk
33/1
Daughter of Rocamadour out of a Medicean mare. Encouraging third of 13 on debut at Tramore last month but manner and distance beaten tempers any enthusiasm.
12
Horse silk
100/1
€4,000 three-year-old, Fame And Glory filly is a half-sister to fairly useful hurdler Ferrobin. Pulled-up over hurdles at Cork last month. Unlikely to be troubling the judge in this company.
Alhebayeb filly out of a Orpen mare. Closely related to a number of winners including Chelsea Lad, successful over 7f/1m. Worth a check in the market on debut for smart yard.

I A CONNECT can land the closing contest for trainer/jockey combination of Gordon Elliott and Jamie Codd. The five-year-old produced a pleasing debut at Fairyhouse when last seen in January and can see off the attentions of Zaccarela for trainer Philip Fenton and potential improver Elusive Specimen.
