Line Out¹⁷⁴

Age: 9| Weight: 11-10| J: D F O'Regan| T: J E Kiely| OR: 136| D

9/2

Useful chaser. 2 wins from 6 runs this season. Didn't need to be at best when winning 12-runner handicap chase at Punchestown (20.9f, soft, 4/1) 174 days ago. This is more demanding.

Age: 10| Weight: 11-4| J: S A Mulcahy⁽⁷⁾| T: J F Gleeson| OR: 116| CD

100/1

Course winner. First run since leaving Eric McNamara when pulled up in minor event chase at Punchestown (25f, heavy, 100/1) 37 days ago, behind when untidy 2 out. Back down in trip.

Fair chaser. First run since leaving Henry De Bromhead when second of 3 in minor event hurdle at Leopardstown (18.3f, good, 18/1) 16 days ago, no match for winner. Switches from hurdles to chase.

Forecasts

Robin Des Foret (8/13), Defi Bleu (11/4), Westerner Point (10/3), Line Out (9/2), Judgement Day (12/1), Black Scorpion (100/1)

It's been a while since ROBIN DES FORET last hit the target, but he usually contests stronger races than this and should prove a tough nut to crack on these terms. Westerner Point is capable when on-song, but he has a bit to prove at present. Consequently, recent Wexford winner Defi Bleu and the hat-trick seeking Line Out can fill the places.
