Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: Sean O'Keeffe| T: J P Ryan| OR: 114

50/1

Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Kilbeggan in May. 22½ lengths last of 4 to Pied Piper in WKD Hurdle (40/1) at Down Royal (16.9f, soft) 15 days ago.

Form: 63-1004

Getaway Queen^p,t³

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: D F O'Regan| T: D Budds| OR: 104

25/1

Didn't need to improve to win 13-runner handicap at Dundalk (16f, 15/2) 3 days ago, always holding on. Switches from Flat to hurdles but this is a difficult ask.

Form: 1/12663-

Heaven Help Us²⁷

Age: 8| Weight: 10-11| J: D E Mullins| T: P Hennessy| OR: 135| D

5/2

Useful hurdler. Bit below form 10 lengths second of 7 to Rebel Ivy in listed mares event at Limerick (22.4f, soft, 7/2) 27 days ago. Definite player in her best form, though.

Form: 42565-2

Queens Brook²⁷

Age: 7| Weight: 10-11| J: Jack Kennedy| T: G Elliott| OR: 144| BF

8/15

Smart hurdler. 4/6, below form 14½ lengths third of 7 to Rebel Ivy in listed mares event at Limerick (22.4f, soft) 27 days ago. Will surely leave that run behind and she's still the one to beat.

Form: 3/2122-3

Forecasts

Queens Brook (8/15), Heaven Help Us (5/2), Copper Nation (6/1), Rebel Early (20/1), Getaway Queen (25/1), Bonarc (50/1), Gotthenod (80/1), Loudest Whisper (80/1), Indie Belle (100/1)

QUEENS BROO looked very rusty when very disappointing at Limerick last month but she'll surely come on a lot for that and this is a good chance to get back on track. Heaven Help Us finished ahead of the selection that day (albeit still below form) and she looks the main danger on these terms.
